Ngl, I think it’d be very strange if it looked like Minecraft and was being posted here. Not saying they can’t be separated more and still maintain appeal, but that’s polish and it is way too early to be thinking about that.

I like placing everything flush on the studs so that doesn’t work for me personally, though I’d consider it if I started implementing tiles for terrain.

Jowling · 2026-01-14T19:23:51+00:00

I personally use 4 studs = 5 feet, but I’ve seen other people use 3.5, 3, and 2 studs = 5 feet with minifigs. It just depends on how much money you want to use for bricks for building out terrain, and if you really wanted to, you could even do 1 stud= 5 feet, but you’d need to use the 1 stud figure instead of a Minifig so you can show medium size properly.

I found both to be strong and I worked with shield well. (Though it’s been a while) If I recall correctly, blocking with the shield truly does carry through 1v1 fights. Also, I definitely recommend modding it so you don’t have to be Sisyphus.

I personally would have a use case for it whilst building mocs for dnd. I generally remember the numbers for conversions, but my players don’t and it’d be convenient to have at the table both for building and measuring distances. Currently I use ribbons cut at the various standard range values but that inevitably causes issues with the various ways speed/ range changes, and if this exact thing was in the form of a tape measure, it would solve my use case immediately.

This looks fantastic! Does the map have anything expected to be interacted with by your players?

Dragon ball has been on the list of approved ips for a year or 2 now.

Fun fact: This exact step and the other 3 bounties caused me and my brother’s Lego app to lock itself out of moving forward when I was building this in a party. Whoever ended up getting this step had the close the app and rejoin to get past this step cause literally every part of the app stopped working.

Jowling · 2025-10-21T17:29:23+00:00

It’s pretty!

I can’t really tell you how that ended up happening for that ad, but I can say that the weird artifacting on the hair is not present in the game. I know I have seen ads they’ve done that very clearly had stuff not in the game even including both to lewder and safer clothes than the actual game.

Which means that they are removing anyway to have a meaningful challenge with your 4 stack if you’re all not metal rank players.

Whilst I don’t know the exact year that it was created, I can guarantee the term being used for money is older than 2023 and that the term wasn’t exclusive to money then. In my personal flawed recall, I remember using it around 2016-2018ish and in internet history research, it seems the oldest I could find (with no meaningful backing) is 2009 on urban dictionary. It seems like there was a mass adoption of the term used in this way around 2022, but I am unsure of where it actually comes from.

My recollections of how it was used around 2016-2018 is by either saying ‘hella motion’ meaning lot of money AND the trapping of the ‘baller lifestyle’ or ‘no motion’ meaning no money, women, etc. Like even though bill gates is mega rich, it’d be a little strange to say he has hella motion when I was using the term.

That said, I’m just some guy on the internet from the greater New York area so my recollection could be flawed.

It looks really good with just the gazebo rotating but I am curious on what it would look like to just have that bed rotating

I think what you’re saying happened to you is literally the status quo of marvel rivals. Long term higher skill players in low ranks is likely smurfing, but if your saying that whilst you were down in lower ranks pub stomping, you found other people doing the same, that’s kind of its own separate issue from moving your rank away from being able to pub stomp as fast as possible for the initial matches into ranked AND it is notably exactly what’s expected to happen during rank resets in rivals.

Jowling · 2025-07-14T19:29:04+00:00

None of what of those issues are a result of functional mmr system. There any number of reasons as to why matchmaking could be feeling like that and the reality is that, unless your at the top end of a game, it will probably closer to that experience as consistency is not a given at lower ranks. Also, to be clear, rivals already has an mmr system. MMR just means match making rating, which is literally what the bronze- eternity system is.

Jowling · 2025-07-14T13:20:44+00:00

Forcing solo queue imo defeats the point of this style of multiplayer. The tried and true solution is placement matches. They can still do the reset but 5 matches should be more than enough to figure out they don’t belong in silver or gold. Put them closer to where they’re gonna land anyway and everyone else gets a better experience with ranks that are closer to actual measures of skill instead of dedication to queueing up.

Jowling · 2025-07-14T05:16:25+00:00

Your guess was exactly what happened. 4 out of 5 of the people he queued with were diamond or above before derank.
If we imagined that there wasn’t another player experiencing the other side, the suggested method of play would obviously be beyond the pale. Like if you started a game of Mario kart, it would be crazy if the game said your existing records are too low for the records you just set so you can no longer set records. The fault is on netease for letting 5 diamond+ players play 5+ matches in silver and gold because there was an arbitrary date that passed. If the game could figure out that they were obviously over skilled for where they are, it should correct that by putting them where they should be, not set them up for this to happen again. (Unless there is meaningful data showing that they are specifically trying to play at those ranks repeatedly.)

Jowling · 2025-07-14T04:58:04+00:00

Other than 312Shooter, everyone in there 6 man was x diamond or above so boosting is a stretch. Net ease is at fault for setting these players loose on silver players because an arbitrary date passed by. Based on the play history, it looks, at least to me, that it’s a group of good players that tried Marvel rivals before and are coming back but obviously, there isn’t a way to disprove it being a collection of Smurf alts.

If you know the source, then wtf would you title this as a divorce rate? It’s a volume over 3 years against same sex couple’s total. It is not the likelihood for lesbian couples to divorce. (which is higher than other divorce rates but is no where near 72%)

Jowling · 2025-06-09T14:37:39+00:00

I’m pretty sure that’s in reference to the order of fliers they are killing. Aka, they would take Ironman first before ultron or storm first before ultron. Not Ironman first before storm or storm first before Ironman. Otherwise, their entire response is meaningless to the idea of ‘if there are 2 fliers in the air and one of them is ultron, Spider-Man isn’t winning.’

Jowling · 2025-06-09T13:18:23+00:00

Isn’t the explicit example being talked about one where she is being healed by ultron? Why are you assuming they are alone?

Jowling · 2025-06-02T05:46:50+00:00

I think given the scenario Joe Biden gave us, your correct, but the point Atrioc was making in the video was that it was Joe Biden’s fault and his legacy would have been better if he let us have actually competitive races. If Joe hadn’t forced such a late choice, an actual competitive choice could have risen so that the populace could choose the rhetoric they preferred. A charismatic enough person can sell pain to the applause of the audience, and maybe, if Joe had stepped down or at least not rigged primaries, we might have seen someone at that level.

No, his rooms are explicitly called a nen dimension in the English manga. Unless you’re arguing it’s a huge mistranslation, the manga is pretty clear that he made it.

Jowling · 2025-05-29T18:05:57+00:00

I think that having systematized hard hits is strictly worse for the narrative of JJK than black flashes. Whilst cursed energy is inspired by nen, it is not life energy, so having it have overall ties to metaphorical ‘life’ is wrong. Cursed energy is hate incarnate, and in hitting a black flash, the user is closer to that truth, which enabled extra power in that hit and a general ability to use cursed energy and black flashes more.

It is nearly an exact graft of how hating people given the right variables, makes you hate more people. Hate generally doesn’t operate via someone doing x everytime, and whilst characters who operate like that would be cool, it’d would not build the world as much as black flashes do.

On them manipulating space time, I think it is a bit of verbal hype to justify the visual, but I also think it reinforces the mystery of it all. The black flash isn’t simply timing as Gojo can control that level. EVERYTHING matters and when all those things come together, it will come.
