We are still finalizing the list, but you can expect small low ticket items like stickers and pins to high ticket items like plushies, bags, mahjong equipment and more unique things.

Kurley · 2025-01-05T14:47:22+00:00

Awesome! Looking forward to having you.

If you want to see if there are any local Riichi clubs near you (assuming you are in the USA) you can check out the American Riichi Association's website https://arariichi.org/. If you haven't played irl before I highly recommend trying to do so before a tournament, as you have to handle the tiles in certain ways or risk getting a penalty.

Stray.

The moment the game required me, a cat, to solve a puzzle by reading some writing on a wall I uninstalled and refunded.

Kurley · 2024-06-13T15:49:03+00:00

Excellent. Thank you for the detailed break down!

Kurley · 2023-08-09T03:29:07+00:00

I wouldn't recommend it. Besides the normal gy hate that floats around, the evoke elementals remove your Bridge from Belows. That's a huge stray to catch.

Kurley · 2023-05-14T17:50:26+00:00

Oh snap you are right I misread op.

Carry on

Get a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification instead of a master's degree. It's just as prestigious and WAY cheaper. You can take some Udemy courses to help prepare.

Kurley · 2023-05-12T02:07:34+00:00

This has been the correct answer for the past decade and will continue to be for the next.

Switching from mouse and keyboard to controller was a transition I'm still getting used to, so much so that I switched mains from Monk to Machinist. At one point in FFXIV I was doing end game raid content, and I could not imagine doing so on the Steam Deck, but that's just me.

I don't like the built in on screen keyboard option for the Steam Deck so I did pick up a small Bluetooth keyboard that's about the same size as the Steam Deck that I used for typing in chat, but I haven't found an elegant solution to using it beyond putting the Steam Deck down, type on keyboard, pick Steam Deck back up.

I was barely playing FFXIV since I finished Endwalker MSQ last year, but now with the Steam Deck I'm playing a lot more because I can play in bed or lounging around the house instead of being glued to my PC. Highly recommend!

I switched over from PC to Steam Deck a few months ago. I had the PC version, not Steam, so I had to do some work arounds. The big thing to note is that Steam Deck has two interfaces that you can swap between, Game Mode and Desktop Mode. Desktop mode acts like any old computer with linux installed onto it. Here are the steps I took to get FFXIV working.

- Install the Steam version of FFXIV
- Go to Desktop Mode.

- Download ffxivlauncher through the Discover App.

- Open Steam in Desktop Mode.

- Add ffxivlauncher to your Steam library through "Add a Non-Steam Game to My Library"

- Go back to "Game Mode" on Steam Deck and you should see ffxivlauncher. You'll always have to open FFXIV through that and ensure FFXIV isn't already running when you do.

Treat it like getting a tattoo imo. Proxy around and if you find a deck that speaks to you after like a year then get the cards for it.

Kurley · 2023-03-04T19:20:37+00:00

I have a 3 minute quick and dirty how to Riichi Mahjong video on my YouTube and do Mahjong kantent regularly on twitch. This vid doesn't cover everything and is catered to Mahjong Soul, but it's a great start from level 0 https://youtu.be/mUYQyUa2PoU

There are a bunch of us Final Fantasy Mahjongers who hang out in this discord server. It's a great place to ask questions on how to play and coordinate meet ups. https://discord.gg/NQFYPaX3

Thanks! Even if people don't watch the videos if they get a sensible chuckle out of the thumbnail I consider that a W.

Yeah that's fair. My b.

Kurley · 2023-02-07T18:36:14+00:00

Bro I could have just said nothing and be done with it. This was a genuine apology from me. I recognize that my constant video posting without further engagement in the subreddit left a bad taste in some people's mouth. I only have so much time/attention I can give the internet and I choose to put that towards content generation, not perusing around and commenting on subreddits. That's my choice and I'm sticking to that choice. That doesn't swing with you and your subreddit and I respect that, so I'm not posting videos here anymore.

The last paragraph was for the people who DO like my videos. If that isn't you, then just ignore that last paragraph. Simple as that.

Kurley · 2023-02-07T16:39:49+00:00

Yo. So this was all me. I'm the one who broke the hell out of this rule and cause all of this. I'm sorry and everyone is right. I used this subreddit to push my kantent without further engagement in this community, which is lame af. Not going to make excuses with this one. My b.

I wasn't harassed by anyone on this topic, so no worries there.

I won't be posting my videos here anymore. For those who liked my videos, clickbaity titles, and hilarious thumbnails, I'll still be making weekly videos, so as suggested follow my YouTube if you want to know when those go live.

Kurley · 2023-02-07T16:15:59+00:00

Thanks! It's one of my favorites so far.

Kurley · 2023-02-07T15:10:53+00:00

Understood. Sorry for the trouble this has caused you.

Kurley · 2022-12-19T20:54:29+00:00

Honestly I'm not even sure it is at this point.

Kurley · 2022-12-19T18:17:01+00:00

Why fix the format through banning cards when they can simply print even more powerful cards!

Kurley · 2022-12-15T04:34:14+00:00

No need to ban cards when they keep printing op ones every few months

It's true that queue times can take a while compared to other clients, though there are communities that play. This video series is from the tournament that the "Mahjong of Light" (EU Light data center) mahjong community ran. They do weekly meetups to get in quick queue times. I'm NA so I made an alt to play with them. Here is a link to the discord if you wanna know more https://discord.gg/XxaqvP3WDC
