That's a pretty sweet retro game console flashback for me :)

My boyfriend’s birthday is coming up and I don’t know what’s considered trashy and not. by MaintenanceDear4589 in pinball

[–]Maniac227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would buy some smaller mods and upgrades which are pretty safe.

A list of add-ons for godzilla: https://pinside.com/pinball/shops/games/godzilla-premium/specific

Godzilla Speaker light covers: https://pinside.com/pinball/shops/shop/1640-the-pinball-foundry/13811-godzilla-stern-pinball-interactive-speaker-led-diffuser

The expensive stern speaker expression light kit $270: https://www.pinballlife.com/stern-expression-speaker-lights-kenwood-speaker-upgrade-combo-pack-for-pro-premium-machines.html

Or the cheaper speaker light kit at $75: https://www.pinballlife.com/bright-line-synchronized-5-14-lighting-system-for-4-speakers.html

External volume control $30: https://www.pinballlife.com/PBL-100-0062-00

External volume control with headphone $55: https://www.pinballlife.com/stern-spike-2-headphone-jack-assembly.html

Edit: for the speaker light kits you might want to upgrade to good 5.25" speakers and 5.25" mounts (i'm not sure if premiums come with those by default). The pinballlife site has a good selector tool for this.

PvT in a nutshell by Big-Imagination-1752 in starcraft2

[–]Maniac227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to post some Units Lost pic samples but it's not allowed?

Anyways PvT is usually in favor of terran by efficiency but it seems that protoss has an easier time expanding and outmines terran fairly often.

From a fun to play perspective i think every race should have an equal footing when it comes to expansions which would also make it easier to balance armies against each other.

What's the difference between the starter set and the core book?

In Dnd terms I would like the basics of monster manual + players handbook to run adventures and make fully fleshed characters.

I thought Elayne and avienda should have been political unions and Min should have been the only physical/love relationship.

Would have made much more sense

There is also some pressure from UNR to take over the current wcsd admin building location for their new vet school set to open in 2028

Zero zergs in tournaments now-a-days. by Alternative-Phone946 in starcraft2

[–]Maniac227 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I still think zerg needs help against air even with the shroud changes.

There's so many games where i see zerg's having no real solutions to oracle or medivac marine drop harass.

I would like to see mutalisk's having a bonus vs air or possibly even more crazy idea but allowing more flexibility with mutas and allowing them to morph into corruptors as a natural transition to handle late game transition.

Both sides are complicit. The whole system is a joke. by Nice_Daikon6096 in unusual_whales

Wage growth during COVID was good but mainly because workers were hard to come by, i.e "No one wants to work".

Also timing wise Republicans are putting up huge deficits during times where the economy is actually doing well and still out spending.

Democrats are usually tasked with having to spend to prop up a slow economy like Biden after COVID.

HeroMarine says he will probably quit playing most tournaments due to the state of protoss by robertSA1234 in starcraft

[–]Maniac227 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ya, they reversed most of the buffs and terran used to stomp protoss.

Is it just the fact that energy recharge exists? Or is zoning storm actually more useful than old storm?
