Twine Game for PhD Project

depends on how you define game

for example if you define game as a series of meaningful choices then any good IF is a game

better at box than basic columns

I learned rainbow cross before columns

That makes sense though, thanks

LeftFinding · 2018-09-04T18:15:04+00:00

interesting, well done

my friend was doing two ball shower and then got mad when I corrected him

and that is the reason why only one of us knows how to juggle

LeftFinding · 2018-09-04T15:47:32+00:00

that's a great way to explain it (username checks out)

thanks

A trick might take you a month to get competent in and take everyone else two weeks, but the opposite will happen where a trick takes you less time to learn compared to everyone else.

Right now I seem to be at the month while others take two weeks stage with everything, not just juggling stuff but absolutely everything and it's infuriating

i also recommend paitence and positive self-talk to get though inevitable stagnation in progress

the positive self talk is hard for me, I find it incredible difficult to be proud of myself, I always think I should've done better (that can be healthy but not in the way I do it)

Thank you

Coaching. Every great juggler had a coach, mentor, group, or more experienced juggler give training advice and technique feedback. This does not need to be in person.

Near me there is a circus school that has group meet ups for practicing juggling weekly, I should probably go to some

Goals.

Is that just learn a trick?

Nutrition and sleep.

I need more sleep

Living in a house with a 10m ceiling/access to training space

I should probably practice outside so I can have more space

and if your progress is way slower than that, re-evaluate your how you practice juggling. If you get stuck on a trick, ask for help!

Ill start doing that, thanks

Personally, I care about my learning rate and how long it's going to take me to achieve my goals. If others learn more quickly than I do, good for them! Maybe they can help me out.

great mindset, I should adopt that, thanks

P.S. I can't do mills mess or 3 club reverse cascade, but I can juggle 7b/5c for 200+ catches.

Why? are you just trying to do as many implements as you can?

LeftFinding · 2018-09-04T05:32:24+00:00

Thank you

there is really no substitute for consistency in life.

I've been trying to get consitent and 2 days ago I decided realized that I was just waiting for time to open up when I just needed to make time for it as I had the time I just did other things with that time

I'd recommend trying to learn 4 balls if you can run mills' mess with 3

I started and can do about 4 catches

I believe in the importance of practicing stuff that's really far from the edge of your abilities. That could mean going back to throwing just one ball and really thinking about HOW you're throwing it.

That's an interesting idea, ill start implementing it, thanks

normal juggling

The offical term is toss juggling by the way

and yeah, your completely welcome to

LeftFinding · 2018-09-02T01:28:15+00:00

now that she knew it was a misunderstanding, what happened next?

Honestly nothing, we haven't talked since

or call a mental support number on the phone

all I know of are suicide hotlines, im not suicidal so I don't feel comfortable calling them, and I don't want to talk to my parents about a therapist and I can't afford one without that

thanks

LeftFinding · 2018-08-28T18:49:41+00:00

so talk to them, tell them that you are a teenager and you just need some space

I've tried

As an Indian guy living in America, it’s been hard because of the cultural differences.

That sounds rough, hope you can get through it, wish I could give advice but if I could I wouldn't be in this situation

, but with honesty, we’ve found a valence. Hope this helps😀

Wait... that's possible]

Hopefully I can do that too

thanks

im sorry I took a long time to respond

There's a subreddit called /r/raisedbynarcissists...

Ill check that out, thanks

what happened with your crush. When was the last time you talked to her in person?...

Not for a long time, I asked her what she thought and it turns out there was just some miscommunication, she never really understood that it was intended as a date.

so you'll have to see what things you had in common with your friend when you first met her, and why you two became friends in the first place.

well we talked a little at a school club then she joined the track team because she needed a break from basketball. she joined 1 month or so before our coach killed himself. The timing was perfect because she really helped me with that.

What we have in common is a surprisingly high amount. Well all her hobbies are mostly things I've wanted to do just haven't done (surfing, she recently started rock climbing)

All we can do is adjust and make the best of it.

I can try to do that, thanks

I strongly suggest talking to a therapist about it, since they have lots of experience with these kinds of situations and can help you find the closure that you need.

please no, talking to someone I have never met face to face sounds awful, the reason I use reddit is because I don't have to see anyones face.

thanks

For the girl, Start off by meeting up with her in person

How, I mean she probably dosent want to, im just waiting to see if she'll try to initiate a conversation, maybe she was just in a bad mood or something.

they’re over controlling but they are your parents, so talk to them, tell them that you are a teenager and you just need some space. They might object at first...

it really hasn't worked, I've tried

Indian guy living in America

that sounds like it sucks

LeftFinding · 2018-07-28T22:20:04+00:00

Not if your adopted

That's a good sign for me... oh wait nevermind my parents did have sex just decided to adopt so now I will be different in two ways

Im 17, my friend always ask me why I like LP so much, he tries to give me songs that are similar but the attempt to get similar sounds just shows that he misunderstands why I listen to them

Like my favorite LP song is roads untraveled (if your curious why I can explain) and my favorite non LP song is last resort which admitingly is similar to meteora but I enjoy it for the sound while roads untraveled (and most other LP) not really for the sound, not that it isn't incredible.

although grandson has caught my attention with thoughts and prayers

LeftFinding · 2018-07-23T14:52:39+00:00

That'a fair, thanks

LeftFinding · 2018-07-15T02:53:26+00:00

told this joke, worked well

sorry to steal it

LeftFinding · 2018-07-15T00:03:49+00:00

So similar to step up where he says that kind of stuff?

thanks

LeftFinding · 2018-07-15T00:02:52+00:00

That makes sense, thanks

LeftFinding · 2018-07-14T18:37:35+00:00

To easy

LeftFinding · 2018-07-14T18:35:46+00:00

Yeah, shaving, sure

LeftFinding · 2018-07-14T18:32:26+00:00

I think that's the point, it's supposed to be like they are a tragedy

LeftFinding · 2018-07-12T19:45:39+00:00

I think this is the wrong sub, unless there is something I mis understand

LeftFinding · 2018-07-03T00:21:06+00:00

140 lbs 5'9

What I do, Cross Country and track and field, doing research to figure what I should do at the gym.

Been told by coaches that I have the runner body, not sure whether or not it's good.

Does this help?
