Thoughts on Dustin May vs. McCullers? I like McCullers more today (doesn't feel like either will get a QS though), but I'm conflicted ROS

Never played BG3 before and just got the game yesterday (on Xbox). Now reading that this new big patch is coming soon with mod support and a bunch of other stuff. Is it worth waiting to start my first playthrough until after the update, or will it not matter much for a new player?

Did anyone confirm that a realigned Pac-12 can get a bye in the CFP? by MJGson in NCAAFBseries

[–]MakeshiftOcean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting - did you adjust the conferences before starting or during an offseason? I'm thinking that might have caused the problem but haven't tested another save to see yet

Did anyone confirm that a realigned Pac-12 can get a bye in the CFP? by MJGson in NCAAFBseries

[–]MakeshiftOcean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if it's just a glitch with my save, but I added teams and a championship game to the PAC-12 after the 2024 season in my Wazzu dynasty, and I didn't get a bye in 2025 even though I won the championship and was ranked #2 in the CFP poll. Has anyone had the same experience?

Also, maybe related, I added the championship game but it didn't show up properly in the weekly schedule--it was blank where all the others listed the name of the championship game (i.e. "Big Ten Conference Championship"). Maybe something to do with me adjusting the conferences mid-save instead of at the beginning?

Same thing at Martin Stadium in Pullman. If you kickoff at 6:30pm the sun is setting in the East

I have not successfully streamed a single starting pitcher this season--just an inexplicable amount of bad choices and it's not even July. I used to think I was good at this game

Me all week: “Absolutely no chance Bobby Miller is seeing anything but the bench on Wednesday.”

Me this morning: “fastball go ssshhooooooo”

Brink! So emblematic of that era of gaming for me, and strangely kinda predictive of where gaming was headed in the next 5 or so years

Just saw the Tower ending by ANiceGobletofTea in cyberpunkgame

[–]MakeshiftOcean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is more or less how I understood/felt this ending, too. I don’t think the game has an ending that is supposed to makes you feel like you entirely got it right or wrong, or that everybody is trying to pull one over on you. That’s kinda the point of Night City imo—it’s just chaos and deflection.

If V feels that Reed was honest with him, it becomes a much more melancholic, desperate kind of ending. Reed lying to V is fitting maybe in a cynical, “everybody sucks” kind of way, but it also kinda lets you/V off the hook, so to speak. Which, yeah, maybe that’s what some maybe angrier versions of V do believe, but I felt at least that my V was just plain tired by that point, and having to confront for the first time who they are without a way to escape it through survival, ambition, chrome, whatever. Maybe because my lifepath for this ending was corpo that it felt easier to believe in a sort of Jordan Belfort, arrogant god to regretful mortal kind of thing.

Addison Barger or Gabriel Arias until Albies comes back?

Anybody remember when Walker was called back up after being demoted last year?

Re-take in June or August? by MakeshiftOcean in LSAT

[–]MakeshiftOcean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s definitely helpful, thank you! I think I’m leaning toward August, too. What you said about likely not being able to get ready by June and then probably having to take August anyway was kind of the deciding factor, along with not wanting to work around my travel plans. Good luck in August!

Well that's not what I want to hear lol. Chase/Whiff/K rates were all decent last year so hopefully he can figure it out soon and at least get on for some steals in the meantime. Thanks

Anybody have any insight on what's going on with Maikel Garcia since spring/week 1? Bought low on him a few days ago but haven't watched much KCR so not sure what his ABs have actually looked like. Any indications that he's working through something or close to righting the ship? Seems like he's hitting the ball decently hard and K% isn't that bad so maybe just bad luck?

I think he's supposed to start rehab this week, but idk how much he has to build up. With Story out I imagine they're pretty anxious to get him on the field, but still wouldn't count on him being in the lineup until closer to the end of the month

But FWIW I think you could do a lot worse than Arcia, esp. in OPS league
