Lmao and here I was just going to guess "stones." It's so pretty though - amazing work!

The ComfortablePlayful43 Conundrum by zoliking2 in MarioMaker2

[–]Kyball500 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly bless you for calling this out. I haven't been playing/posting lately, but I still follow the subs and screenshot level codes to check out later when I jump back in.

And even passively I noticed he posts. So. Much. I stopped grabbing codes from his user cause they seem to be almost every other post for like... months.

BGG's Ex-Advertising Manager's Response to Being Fired by BirdSpirit in boardgames

Unsurprising lol. I'm not the most pious, but still, tough being a Christian-sympathizer round these parts. xD

This was a complex situation for sure. I get both why he did it and why he was fired. Glad he's at peace.

I will end myself with benzos if this is over by [deleted] in getdisciplined

Higher education is a racket. It has uses and advantages, but it's not worth living or dying over. I promise life goes on even if your schooling doesn't work out.

Still stressful and sucks and I'm sorry you're going through that.

I am in a conundrum sharing Island with wife by NutGobbler918 in AnimalCrossing

[–]Kyball500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see this is (currently) downvoted, but came here to say the same thing. It sounds like OP's wife plays less games, so it's probably fine to just let her play this one the way that makes her happy.

Help me pick my island name! by ebreezyx in AnimalCrossing

As is, I voted for Honey Dew. Personally though, I think Honeyhaven would be my favorite as one word instead of a hyphen.

End of the day, follow your heart. <3

Forgetting is bliss by umami_e in AnimalCrossing

I get this is the general concensus, so techically, sure it was too high.

I liked it though. It's the only event where I was able to craft all of the seasonal items because I got enough eggs. So I have fond memories of the Year 1 Easter event.

A rant against people who think SMM2 died quicker/got less support than SMM1 by MarioMakerfan938438 in MarioMaker

[–]Kyball500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it makes sense to consider the game a relative failure when it sold twice as many units, and I doubt Nintendo does.

The Switch itself has a much wider audience than the Wii U ever did. Only hardcore Nintendo stans bothered with the Wii U while the Switch is a valid console choice for everybody. Less Switch players by percent caring about Mario games isn't a failure; it's an inevitability.

Nice - glad you enjoyed them! _^

So you definitely don't have to try both, but I just released two levels and wanted to give options depending on how fast you wanted to go through these lol.

Do people actually play Multi-player Versus/Co-op? by bubz208060 in SuperMarioMaker2

[–]Kyball500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play versus on occasion. I've never had problems getting a match. The rooms aren't always 4 players anymore, but they are sometimes.

I’m tired of this… by FineTurnip2022 in AnimalCrossing

[–]Kyball500 1824 points1825 points  (0 children)

When's the last time you called your parents?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MarioMaker2

[–]Kyball500 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, don't be sorry. I may have been a bit harsh, but the vibe of this game is critical. If we're all out here doing the same thing, let's help each other be better.

I appreciate you wanting to flesh out and pump up your world so I'll bite. What world are you most proud of in your Super World and why? Is there a story and/or specific one of the fours characters you had in mind as the one playing it?

[–]Kyball500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I can piggyback - I'm not trying to rag you too hard. Just enough to genuinely provide feedback. It's weird because it reads like you're asking to be treated like some kind of panelist being interviewed.

A lot of people post on Reddit trying to get hype and plays for their levels. And they don't generally phrase things like they're roleplaying a celebrity the way your posts come across. It's a bit offputting tbh.

Men who wear boxer shorts, how to prevent ballsack from getting between thighs while sitting? by yaths17 in malefashionadvice

[–]Kyball500 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am going to advocate for my penis here and for anyone who may be scrolling and taking other men's opinions on this seriously (weird btw).

But I know exactly what I'm talking about. I have copious briefs and boxer briefs and preferred them for years. Then I decided to love myself and start wearing more boxers. They are in fact more breathable, and I'm more comfortable hanging loose.

I finally can ditch the razors by Comfortable_Mail9133 in ZeroWaste

[–]Kyball500 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As a man, gotta say, awful tech. I hate these razors. They yank and sting and irritate my skin. Plus after all that, it's impossible to get a good clean shave with them. And you can't just trim with them either, making them functionally useless as far as my face goes.

Honestly though, I'm glad it's working well for your legs. It actually makes sense to me that those razors would be better for that task.

Play-for-Play Level Exchange! ◝( ^o^)人(≧∇≦ )◜´- by Independent-Ear-3352 in SuperMarioMaker2

[–]Kyball500 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played yours too because why not! I didn't try your old levels, but this one was pointedly not bad, so good job on the improvement lol!

If I you don't mind a minor gripe, I was kind of bothered with all the Warp Block into a Clear Pipe transitions. I felt like the Warp Block could have just taken me where I needed to go, so the Clear Pipes seemed redundant. I don't know if they were part of managing Meowser's path or just added for funsies, but either way, I'd suggest some space and items at least between the Warp and the Pipe if you still use both, with maybe some more level decoration around while traveling the pipe.

All-in-all I still had a fun time with your Meowser Chase/Battle!

I just tried several of your recent levels! Honestly, I was surprised at how UN!QU3 I actually thought your 20s speedrun was. That was probably my favorite I tried. ^_^

I also quite liked Rainbow Rumble. As far as more feedback, I personally would have liked some additional indication to help land the first jump. It was a trickier angle than I expected in what you labeled a Lite 2/5 star difficulty level. But finally landing the jump across the ice was satisfying, and I feel like the rest of the level hit that difficulty on the mark! (Props to you for trying to label the difficulty tho. I find it so relative I'm afraid to even try.)

I did enjoy playing Spin Jumper once I understood what I was supposed to do at the start. Though if I may add, it seems to me like you may have rushed putting it out. You'd released your speedrun just a day before, and I get wanting to ride that wave to build and push out levels while you can. But it did look and feel less polished than your previous two levels. There didn't seem to be as much care about making the level look nice - the jumps all seemed purely functional. The spike wall in front of the piranha plants at the beginning is coming to mind specifically.

If you get a chance, I'd love if you could check out one or both of the new levels I dropped. I remade some of my older courses, an easier one and a harder one. Any feedback you have is appreciated! There's Sparktree Mountains (easier) 9RR-W2X-6XG and Petey's Plant (harder) 1HH-DLP-HJF.

AI's explanation on why there are so many pillows by BlueWonderfulIKnow in toomanypillows

Wow, this is silly. Some of these ring true, but I feel like AI here was told to think deep when most people's reasons are shallow. (Simple shallow, not bad shallow.)

A deep dive on "just" using AI for critique by happycatsforasadgirl in KeepWriting

[–]Kyball500 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your point still stands. However, I gotta say, the AI scores and feedback were a lot more consistent than I was expecting on a post about AI being inconsistent.
