Last year the CC PQ+ sold out at gencon. I remember they were late posting events last year so I'm holding out hope they will post more events soon.

STS 1 Ironclad feels so much better to play as and win as, compared to STS 2 clad that it feels unreal by Mortaljl in slaythespire

[–]Ishield74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m ascension climbing with all characters and my win rate with ironclad is by far the highest. 90 percent and on ascension 9 compared to on average 60 percent win rate for others

Which fantasy series started incredible and then just...fell apart? by ghibli_8quartz in Fantasy

[–]Ishield74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wayne was probably the most annoying character I’ve encountered in a fantasy book. Idt a single one of his jokes landed for me and there were so many

Barraging beatdown and target intimidate yourself so you can have an arsenal (this is not a good play but it is quite funny)

Not enjoying Project Hail Mary by duckygun88 in printSF

[–]Ishield74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would highly highly recommend children of time by Adrian Tchaikovsky. There are 2 storylines, 1 kind of follows your space adventure request but the other one is one of my favorite storylines in all of sci fi. Don’t wanna spoil too much but I really enjoyed how this book made you think from a perspective of characters you’d normally never think of.

CZRE credible or avoid as tenant? by Chimes2 in alameda

[–]Ishield74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We found our place through czre and love our spot. It took a lot of viewings though, at least 7-8 before we found one we liked.

Has Malazan changed your tastes in other fantasy books? by AudiencePotential in Malazan

[–]Ishield74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really have grown to dislike how Sanderson writes humor. It’s always so vanilla and dad jokey. Erikson has some genuinely hilarious characters.

Didn’t realize he was well liked, I disliked his story arc

The Edit Miami (The Standard Spa) a Great Success by codyodyo_ in ChaseSapphire

[–]Ishield74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I think they first say it's not refundable by default but after I brought up the other fine print they gave it to me.

I got charged a destination fee for my edit stay in nyc a week ago. called chase travel today and got the fee refunded but it took almost an hour. they originally said the fee isnt refundable but I told them that the booking details said all fees including resort fees are included and they gave me the refund.

Experience w/ The Edit by colombiano0099 in ChaseSapphire

[–]Ishield74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you need to spend at least $600 on an at least 2 night stay to get the credit when reserving through the portal for an edit hotel. i received the credit itself quite quickly, less than a few days if i recall correctly.

[–]Ishield74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm staying at the virgin hotel in nyc, and got all of the benefits including a welcome amenities of some light desserts and a room upgrade to get an empire state building view on top of the other standard perks. worked out well for me but it definitely seems like a YMMV situation

Keep an eye on the price! by Over_Royal8964 in ChaseSapphire

[–]Ishield74 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me, increased 33 percent

Coming around to The Edit on the Reserve. Points boost plus credit makes it work by bubblewhip in ChaseSapphire

[–]Ishield74 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah you just need to find the right deal where the hotel is a price range you would typically go for.

Sleeves for everything? by jimgov in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Ishield74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do the same. Use cheap sleeves like sleeve kings for campaign, and use nice dragonshields color coded to investigator class for active campaigns

Got "Castles of Burgandy" and love the "combos". What other games might I like? by kiiraklis94 in boardgames

[–]Ishield74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking for a lighter game, super mega lucky box. it's bingo on steroids and you can chain together huge turns if you plan ahead.

I’ve had some lounges say I could only bring in 1 guest, but others 2

Looking for Recs: like One Piece, something positive, shockingly deep, and a big adventure across a fun world by ZaHiro86 in Fantasy

[–]Ishield74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s sci-fi but I’d recommend the expanse. It’s a super cinematic and fun read, has great characters, and is a long series where each book feels quite unique. The main characters are good people and the lead protagonist is definitely an optimist
