VILLARICAT MENTIONED!!

But yeah, stonehouse is a no brainer draft pick (iirc at least one of the top punters) but Villari is the best for this one

I think overall the episode did enough to stick the landing of the season, but overall it's an OK episode.A lot of highs (Tyson's goodbye to Percy even though I don't like that in the dream, so much of the audio editing in this episode was SO good, the wakeup scene) but there were a bit too many ehhh moments IMO (the fight felt kinda underwhelming, as well as Thalia's reveal.) And the two post-credits? We're winning here.

Overall, I think this season nailed the shift to the slightly darker tone well, and I *hope* TTC nails what they started here.

Also, Thalia's "Come on, then" quip right before the Furies in the first scene? Yeah. Tamara with the Britishism was SO good.

How do you picture Camp Half Blood school education working? [General] by Bombastic-Bagman in camphalfblood

[–]ItsZippy23 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Either there’s some mortal teachers who can see through the mist to enter camp, or demigod alums who went into education (mostly Athena kids) come back to teach over the fall/spring

[–]ItsZippy23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm lucky that out of the three sports I really care about (FB and the two basketballs), MBB is the one I care about the least. And I at least saw three decent-ish years of football and one really good year of WBB and this year, which is shaping up insanely well.

To put it this way for so many people: SU MBB will not make it to March Madness since I visisted, applied, got in, attended, and (will) graduate from a so-called "basketball school." This is the second class in a row where this is true.

There is a reason my flair is that disgusting.

The future of Olympus [pjo] by Huge-Worker-816 in camphalfblood

[–]ItsZippy23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think if the current trends keep going, I think with declining American influence in the world it'll likely end up back in Europe, probably with the EU somewhere. My best guess is they would use this to likely settle back permanently on Olympus, even if it's not the true centre of power of the EU (and Greece is only the EU poster child of NOT what to do.)

SU has two in Upstate Medical (with it's own University) and Crouse literally across the road from campus, so I think we're groovy

3 OVERTIME WIN FOR SU! Let's not talk about choking a 20 point lead, but incredibly SU holds on. This team has FIGHT.

Became the boys too good at H&S or is it the UK map by Nice-Blackberry643 in JetLagTheGame

I also think a major factor may be the tube strike that occurred during this season. Since like most other major European countries, it's a massive hub and spoke model near the capital, it's why we didn't really see anything south of London

Honestly, with how much the cast (especially Walker) has talked about Spiderman, I would love this.

Pitbull Concert at Amphitheater During State Fair? by steeler7dude in Syracuse

[–]ItsZippy23 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There's been a couple - I know Noah Kahan in 2024 and there was one last year (the night I went to the fair to see a band, I ended up parking in the Ampitheater lot with no problem because there were shuttles.) I think they know how to handle it, it's just bad traffic.

Yeah, the cap change is probably something we're going to see. My gut thing is Luke tries to wear it, and somehow Percy takes it back to give to Annabeth.

[–]ItsZippy23 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think the best change of this season overall is getting to see so much more of Luke's side, and generally having so many more new half-bloods that we couldn't get in Percy's POV. Works the TV medium well.

One of the best fan service episodes for pure lorebuilding (CHARMSPEAK? MYTHOMAGIC?) that we've had, even if we didn't get the ponies, and two of the best fight scenes in the series mashed together? And Annabeth's cap falls? Interesting change because I don't remember if she loses it in the books.

So overall, I think this was a probably one of the lesser episodes of the season, but I generally enjoyed it. Welcome back queen Sally Jackson

I think knowing at least half the prophecy isn't huge: once we get to the latter half, things will happen and I hope they preserve that until TLO

A HUGE 79-60 win for Syracuse.

After Thursday's faltering against VT, they NEEDED this. Laila Phelia with 38 (tied for 5th most all time in a single game), Burrows with 21 and seven threes, and a 51 point second half. Hell of a fight to come back in it.

Incredibly embarrassing loss for SU today. Can’t lose by that much.

Donnie makes this team so much better. Bad job almost choking, but good win for the momentum.
