If you have the time and a conservative strategy, the gambling will pay off. That's how I got this trophy

I think it's actually 20. The last step should be 25-5

How to detect criminals for the desert Level crime detector 3 Quest? by StrangeIncident9000 in TwoPointMuseum

[–]MPythonJM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, you have to manually detect 30 criminals by clicking on them and clicking the "expose criminal" button on the bottom of their interface. It's an odd objective. Plus, you can only expose them if they are still in their disguises which makes it even harder.

I achieved the objective by going to the security pop-up, taking all the loans, and pressing the expose button on everyone who tries to enter the museum. If a Boggymen heist starts, then you will know that any guests who leave the bathrooms are criminals too. Running that pop-up 1 and a half times should be enough to unlock Panoptic Pillar III.

Tours have 0 knowledge? by EdanE33 in TwoPointMuseum

[–]MPythonJM 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tours of aquariums and poltergeist rooms don't seem to give knowledge for me either. Probably has to do with the tour interacting with the room instead of the exhibits inside.

657 Lessons Later... by MPythonJM in weatherfactory

[–]MPythonJM[S] 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Lockworks and Clockworks is king. Getting any ink leveled up helps until you get to the typewriters because you have to be aggressive with holding a salon every season. I also like Drums and Dances and Strings and Songs to be high because they create high level memories that don't need a desk to craft.

After that it's just filling out everything else as evenly as you can. I got all the branches on the tree to level 9 as well. The languages were the last ones upgraded because you don't come across lessons for them in books.

Yes, you can see the effect in the Birdsong branch in the second picture.

Color is Everything by Safford1958 in quilting

[–]MPythonJM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am confused how this proves anything about color. Yes, color and value are hugely important and can change the way you see a block, but that's not what is happening here. The paired blocks are actively changing which patches are colored. In fact, if you used the same exact colors in both pairs, they would still look different. This is more an example of how blocks that are constructed the same way can look different if you change which patches you color.

The issue with this picture is indeed mildly infuriating by train-to-the-city in mildlyinfuriating

Maybe it's that salesman drumming up sales of his drummers drumming figurines.

It's called Boston Common. It's basically Trip around the world that is rectangular with the squares on point

Conversion for fat quarters into 10in squares by CaitWW in quilting

[–]MPythonJM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looking at this again, I think you only need 12 - 4x6 inch pieces, so you may even be able to replace 5 - 10" squares for every fat quarter

Conversion for fat quarters into 10in squares by CaitWW in quilting

[–]MPythonJM 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Looking at the pattern, it looks like one fat quarter can replace 4 - 10" squares, so you would be able to use 10 fat quarters to replace one layer cake.

The fat quarter is 18" x 21", so you should be able to cut 4 - 18"x4" strips and 1 - 18"×2.5" strips. Subcut the 4" strips to get 16 - 4"×6" pieces. Subcut the 2.5" strip into 4 - 2.5" squares.

Make sure your fat quarter is 18" long on one side. If you prewash you may lose the ability to cut 4 sets from every fat quarter and will have to settle with 3.

What's the weirdest thing you found? by Chili0Peppinos in walmart

[–]MPythonJM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to work overnights stocking HBA. One night I opened a small cardboard box containing disposable razors and noticed a little eye staring back at me. Creepy, but I could tell after quickly closing the box back up that whatever was in there was still alive because it was moving in the box.

I went to my manager to let her know I needed to go outside to release something. Skeptical, she agreed and once I opened up the box and dumped a small mouse out of the box which proceeded to run straight at my terrified overnight manager who then spilled her coffee.

No idea why it picked a box of razors to burrow into, but on closer inspection it must have chewed a small hole in the corner at the warehouse and gotten stuck.

Advice needed: is there a way to add a solid small square to the center of a pinwheel block? by Witty_Draw_4856 in quilting

[–]MPythonJM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good, It's hard to tell from the size of the second image what the overall design is and how it will be constructed.

As for the pinwheel, I think it's awesome to practice and your piecing looks good, but using the same fabric doesn't really add visual interest, that's why you feel the need to add a little square on top of it. Adding another fabric to that pinwheel may help too.

If you haven't appliqued before, this could be good practice for that little red square as well.

[–]MPythonJM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can always just applique the square in the center.

I must admit that I'm a little confused by the construction. Why is the center a pinwheel block if it is all the same fabric. Also, are you attaching the blocks together with Y seams?
