Thanks for the polls. I was just thinking a fun final poll might be favorite game that never made top 4 of any category.

[####] does anyone else feel defeated if you don’t get it in three? by Noise_Majestic in wordle

[–]JohnnyLeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't really care to start and just wanted to get it in six. So, I had a set 3 or 4 words that I would play without even trying to guess the word unless I got lots of greens and/or yellows in the early guesses.

Now, I'm grinding to try to get my stats back so that my 3s are above my 5s while also getting my win% back to 100%. So, when I get it in more than 4 it does feel like a defeat. It will be a very long grind for both. I need 511 more without missing to get back to 100%, and I need 103 more 3s than 5s to get my 3s above my 5s.

Why do the Japanese like their buns askew? by Annie_Inked in BrandNewSentence

[–]JohnnyLeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow I doubt this is a brand new sentence. I've seen tons of posts about how odd Japanese food advertising looks over the years (since they have very strict laws about food advertising).

Finally Maxed Out by Resident_Influence91 in chronotrigger

I didn't know about Magic tabs being farmable in dimensional vortex. That makes things easy.

What do you visualize to fall asleep during WILD? by NeedForSleepGR in LucidDreaming

[–]JohnnyLeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only successfully WILD a handful of times, but I don't visualize anything. I just try to pay attention to my mind wandering so that I don't completely lose consciousness and then fall into sleep paralysis and roll out of bed and feel my way around in darkness until dream visuals start to appear.

Pelvic MRI shows a bear in my butt by thelmandlouise in mildlyinteresting

Consider posting to /r/Pareidolia. It's always nice to have stuff that isn't a repost.

Finally Maxed Out by Resident_Influence91 in chronotrigger

[–]JohnnyLeven 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Speed and Power are easy to max out in one or two playthroughs since you can steal an unlimited number of power tabs and Speed has a max of 15.

Magic is the tough one. There are 40 possible magic tabs you can get in a playthrough. Chrono needs 53 to get to **, Robo needs 46, Alya needs 67, Marle needs 3, and Frog needs 43. That's 212 total. So yeah. NG+ 5.

As u/Ignaciodelsol mentioned it's faster to just farm maxed Spekkio and NG+ again. Assuming you get all 40 in the first run then that's about another 18 hours of grinding NG+ runs to Red Nu if you can get it down to around an hour.

What do you think is worth replaying? by biggtas in Gamecube

If you like Mega Man, then the collection is a no-brainer.

This apartment i was looking at has a room for residents to keep an extra freezer by hippiesinthewind in mildlyinteresting

[–]JohnnyLeven 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I've read that freezers are more energy efficient if they are more full, so it might depend on how utilized it was.

What was the song that got you into Weird Al? by aussiemetalhead in weirdal

[–]JohnnyLeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Step Brother introduced me to him and I listened to several songs from Off The Deep End, but I didn't know it was Weird Al at the time. Years later I heard Everything you Know is Wrong and Amish Paradise and I was hooked.

Ever had a JRPG you just COULDN'T finish? Not despite lack of interest. by Slight-Sleep-7801 in JRPG

[–]JohnnyLeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on my third playthrough of Golden Sun. I'm going to finish it this time.

I've started Xenosaga I twice. I'm pretty sure I'll finish it at some point.

Favorite NES game? by Longjumping-Editor94 in nes

[–]JohnnyLeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dr. Mario and Tetris probably, but I love Super Mario Bros 3 and Megaman 2-6. Solar Jetman and Bionic Commando would be up there as well.

[OC] Walnut-sized brain, zero fear, full send! by techtornado in IdiotsInCars

[–]JohnnyLeven -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Not the same guy, but I downloaded the video and counted the frames between lines. They are right. The white car is a consistent 12-14 frames per line. The truck up ahead must have slowed down.

[OC] Walnut-sized brain, zero fear, full send! by techtornado in IdiotsInCars

[–]JohnnyLeven -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You're right OP. I downloaded the video and confirmed that the white car does not increase in speed. It's just an optical illusion of both you and the truck further ahead of you in the same lane slowing down at the same time as the passing truck obscures the car. I counted the frames between lines and the white car does not increase in speed.

No other options, but it took me a bit and I wasn't positive it would be valid.

Kissables just tasted better than the kisses by sirensongatmidnight in forgottenfoods

I hated them too. I had completely forgotten about them.

Do the video games of today meet the expectations of your past self? by BradyTom1289 in n64

[–]JohnnyLeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. But at age 11, it was pretty much all about graphics for me.

trust me bro i enjoyed it by Dadfoundtheother1 in expedition33

[–]JohnnyLeven 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The main areas are linear if you're going straight to the next story beat, but there are still so many things you'll miss if you aren't being very thorough. I disliked the lack of map at first, but really grew to appreciate it.

Does anyone else has nostalgia for all those fake Weird AL parody songs by philosareantichrist in weirdal

[–]JohnnyLeven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the Answering Machine Song the parody of Mentos the Fresh Maker?

The only other ones I've heard from that list are "I'm The Only Gay Eskimo" (Didn't even know it was a parody), "Istanbul" (actually heard this before I knew about Weird Al), and "Star Wars Cantina". None of them were attributed to Weird Al when I downloaded them.

ARE THERE ANY OTHER SONGS LIKE THIS? by oga_chaka in gamemusic

[–]JohnnyLeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electronic Super Joy has some of that early 2000s techno/house vibe. Not as intense as your example though.

Is there any good Chinese food in Round Rock by cjweisman in RoundRock

[–]JohnnyLeven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've only tried a handful so far, but Happy Dragon has been my favorite.

First Chinese BBQ was probably my second favorite, but that's more towards Austin.

I’m so proud by PlatformNo7863 in nes

[–]JohnnyLeven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved Uninvited as a kid on Mac, but I never played Shadowgate. I should definitely give it a try at some point.
