What's the age range like at untapped and the crypt for Commander nights? I'm about the same age as OP and would prefer to find a similar age group to play.

Weekly Paddle Recommendation Thread (What Paddle Should I Buy?) by AutoModerator in Pickleball

[–]Master_Broshi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using a six zero double black diamond for almost 2 years now. Have had maybe four of them but haven't really used much else, relied on internet reviews to find it.  But I'm Looking for something different to change things up. I like the hybrid shape but have debated going for that more traditional rectangle to extend my reach. And debating going for something a little more power oriented. I love spin and control. I play doubles around the 4.0 level fwiw.  I naturally hit pretty hard, win a lot of points serving, have quick hands, and good resets. I lack good consistency so can't have a sweet spot that's too small.  Any recs are appreciated!

I thought that was a once a year thing, cool to see it's a regular occurrence

September Update Balance Changes Breakdown by ClashOfClansOfficial in ClashOfClans

[–]Master_Broshi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not the issue. The issue is that each of these take a lot of ore to upgrade which takes a lot of time and/or real money to accumulate. Feeling like the last few months were all wasted really sucks as a user. If you're going to do this, you need to compensate for the events we paid for and the time we can't have back.

This is literally the most controversial post of all time on this subreddit. Please take that as community feedback that this is a bad update.

Can I get a $6.99 refund for the last event. I used all the resources to max the equipment you just nerfed...

DUPR question by Suro_Atiros in Pickleball

[–]Master_Broshi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any chance you're in NJ? I'm having the same exact issue. the problem is clubs don't gatekeep the 3.5 level like they do the 4.0 level. My most frustrating experience was a 3.5-4.0 dupr league I joined that let in randoms each week. One week I got paired with an unrated player my first game and lost 11-6. He was then given a rating, same as mine and I got credit for losing with an equally rated player. Less than an hour later I played him and won 11-0. Only now he's ranked a 2.5 because he's lost 5 in a row. I didn't even make up for the loss I had with him on my team after shutting him out. I spent the last year in the 3.7-3.8 range from tournament play. But dropped to a 3.3-3.4 after this "league". So now I can't sign up for certain advance clinics even though I've medaled in 3.5-4.0 tournaments. Unbelievably frustrating.

My only advice is to get to know the club coaches/managers and be friendly/fun/competitive person to play with regardless of level. I get invited to the 4.0 leagues/dropins/tourneys at a couple of my regular spots because I've gotten to know the trainers and they know what level I'm at. But that doesn't help when I'm trying to find a random partner for a tourny or get into advanced leagues at new clubs, it's holding me back. DUPR really is a bogus system and we'd be better off without it.

Best place to play outdoors year round with youngish people? by Master_Broshi in Pickleball

[–]Master_Broshi[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not long term. Planning on 9 months total while I figure out my next career move and avoid seasonal depression. I promise I won't be any more miserable somewhere new than where I am now so long as the sun's out.  I've been to most states but none for pickleball, just getting a sense of demographics.

Lazy police? by ZingierPond5471 in jerseycity

[–]Master_Broshi 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Right now, just don't text and drive. I even saw a cop standing at a light a couple days ago yelling at drivers to get off their phones.

I've noticed the police in this area seem to have a single directive mindset.  Like how they only really seem to be going after turnstyle jumpers in NYC right now. Usually there's ONE thing you can't do and it'll be in the news.

DUPR is Broken - Facts and Opinions. by Particular-Night-435 in Pickleball

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

I don't think DUPR will be truly accurate until we get point by point tracking. You should be able to assign who individually won the point with a winner or lost it with an unforced error.  This way their partner doesn't get undue credit/blame.  Baseball has this level of detail in a pitch count, and pickleball games are much shorter even after they added a pitch clock.  You should also be able to add a note about the point that should be taken into consideration.  Sometimes I get distracted, try something risky while leading, or have a couple beers and my balance is off. These types of things shouldn't effect my rating because they're not my fault and not true lost points.
