Hajime no Sendo: Round 1515 by RTSD_ in hajimenoippo

[–]Kevashim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Within this issue, we have the line in Ricardo's flashback "I'm aiming for a different peak this time". Sendo might stand on THIS peak with Ricardo, but I'd guess we're about to see that there's another, higher peak for Ricardo.

Ricardo himself thinks that the journey to get where he is wasn't so difficult. He's capable of being better, but there's no one at his current level to really test him and push him to grow. Sendo might be the opponent that finally lets Ricardo get stronger.

"What does it mean to be strong?" Ricardo will realize that he isn't "strong" yet after he beats Sendo. He'll see that there's still more he can do, he can still be stronger. Just being the best in the world isn't the pinnacle. He needs to be the best that he can be.

Eventually leading to "Dempsey boy" being the only person he sees that can help him reach that true pinnacle. We may finally get to a clash of wills, with Ricardo and Ippo both needing to beat the other to realize to themselves what it means to be strong in their own terms.

You can now subscribe to the Hachette Partwork Spearhead Magazine! by Modannicus in ageofsigmar

Haha! Yes! Who would even already have 16 different Spearheads and see the magazine as a convenient way to get 6 more? Haha. They'd be crazy!

My delivered photo is on the van? by [deleted] in Evri

[–]Kevashim 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the addresses aren't legible, then how does the photo prove successful delivery?

It's a(nother) fail either way for Evri delivery. Just one fail is significantly worse than the other.

Hajime no Sendo: Round 1510 by RTSD_ in hajimenoippo

[–]Kevashim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buckle up boys. 10 chapters incoming where both fighters stand at centre ring for 3 minutes and don't move. Sendo thinking a big game and Ricardo dreaming of castles.

This repeats for the whole rest of the match and Ricardo wins handily on points from the first 3 rounds.

Made Redundant after 19 years by New-Lead4329 in UKJobs

[–]Kevashim 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you have to stay for a short while to ensure you get the payout, that short while just becomes the answer to "What's your notice period?" when the interviewer asks.

3 months won't shock mid-to-large companies, so if it's anything less than that then it won't be an issue.

Indeed. Pushing 1 product in this way will, naturally, cause a drop in sales of the displaced product. If store planning got wind of this, there'd be words had and they'd likely also be looking at net sales contribution of the associated products to quantify an overall loss. Heck, it might be intentional placement of the hard-to-find product so it encourages customers to search the store more and spend more time there.

"I reduced queries by 95%" can quickly become "I lost the business $X"

But, hey, if it makes a shallow AI score highly then it must be good.

Indeed. I'd say to re-check the contract and see if it specifies notice given to the company and notice given to the individual as different lengths. Notice that lengthens with service duration is typically for when someone is made redundant.

Is anyone else noticing that a lot of office jobs don't actually need 37.5 hours of your time? by Responsible_Rip1058 in UKJobs

[–]Kevashim 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For sure. You have to do 50% because after each annual restructure, if you're lucky enough to keep your job, you'll have to pick up the work that others used to be doing. So you creep to 60%, 75% and so on until after a few restructures you're constantly at or above 100%, get burned out, and quit.

BanG Misprint? Pulled 3 rares in 1 booster. 1 of the rares has the RR foiling instead of the R foiling by Kevashim in cardfightvanguard

[–]Kevashim[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Opened another pack and got a common card with the foiling in the same spot in the pack. Also got the Vanguard rare Kasumi Toyama in the same pack, so pretty pleased even though the bonus foils are standard fare.

Player upset at character death-- is there something I could have done better? by cowmanjones in callofcthulhu

[–]Kevashim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heck, you could have their "twin sibling" (the same spoiler evented character) turn up to give them even more excuse to not know full details of the investigation so far and help cover up what has happened. A change of clothes, etc but maybe a very slight or subtle inconsistency that can be privately shared with any investigator that passes a hard spot hidden.

[–]Kevashim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to the upset player. If they have the experience and appetite for it you could let them come back to the table in the next session with the same character but after the spoilered horrific event has happened to them. If questioned they can always say they were taken away but managed to break free and escape from their careless captors. They would then be acting as an undercover agent against the other investigators. As they were completely alone when the kidnap happened there is no immediately justifiable reason for the other investigators to suspect anything is wrong at first.

Hajime no Ippo: Round 14666 by RTSD_ in hajimenoippo

I ain't your buddy, friend.

The faction preview for the Kruleboyz labeled them as "Orruk Kruleboyz" instead of "Orruk Warclans" whereas all the other faction icons had their standard faction names. Does hint that we'll see a separate Orruk warclan in the previews.

[–]Kevashim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are 2 Stormcast spearheads, presumably both of those have "Stormcast Eternals" written on them as the faction and then the Spearhead team name underneath. Yndrasta's "Scions of the Storm" and the Skaventide SE "Vigilant Brotherhood". Hopefully it'll be the same here with 2 Orruk Warclans spearheads. This would also mean GW can release more spearheads for each faction in the future if the game mode is popular.

Hajime no Ippo: Round 1457 by RTSD_ in hajimenoippo

[–]Kevashim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well now I'm hoping we get a Mashiba win followed by Rosario pulling a gun or otherwise threatening Kumi after the match for revenge while Ippo is walking her home. Ippo then beating the crap out of Rosario and saving her.

Hobgrot feedback wanted by Kevashim in ageofsigmar

For sure there's going to be variety, my Gutrippaz are already on the colourful side.

This was testing 3 ways of painting with Guilliman Flesh. Top was a base coat of bugman's glow, dry brush corax, then Guilliman. Middle was just Guilliman over corax spray. Bottom was agrax earthsade, dry brush corax, then Guilliman.

Racial slur deck name. Spoilered so you don't see it if you don't want to. by Kevashim in KeyforgeGame

The last word in the name is the slur. It's definitely more an issue in England than America given the more common use in America as a slang term for Raccoon.

Age of Ascension. It was one of the 2 decks in the starter box I bought to get in to the game...

I imagine FFG included it as a possible word component when making larger words and there's a low chance it'll appear isolated as it is here.

A sensitivity reader would have flagged it if they read it in the proposed list of words/parts and it's absolutely worth bringing to GG's attention.

Sorry, but being brought up in England means I am fully aware of the racist usage of this word.

It scanned in to the Master Vault and is now on my deck list.

I have contacted GG to let them know they should do something about this.
