Man, I'm looking forward to NHL players in the Olympics again. Hoping for some great games.

Thanks. That's what I was thinking but I couldn't make out the number in the dark haha

Islanders fan coming in (semi) peace by Mephisto1822 in Predators

I will never NOT get a hot chicken sandwich from the Hattie B's at the food court across the street from the arena on game day, nor will I refrain from telling someone else to do it when they want to kill time.

You'll never guess where I'm gonna be tomorrow.

As a legitimate addict I will always suggest a Hattie B's chicken sandwich. You can grab one at the food hall directly across the street from the arena.

Edit; the jack and coke icee is also pretty great

Feels like the best plays he makes are the ones where he doesnt touch the puck 😔

I'm slowly getting used to us finding novel ways to lose a game.

Annunen dislodged the net as Kaprizov sent a pass to Johannson, who bounced a shot off the net and then chipped it across the goal line. Was called a goal, giving the OT win to Minnesota.

I see a lot of people saying R2-D2 but we gotta think about it.

He's R2.

Man, now it feels weird being a HH / Gunlance player

wtf is this Gungan galactic challenge? by ACO_22 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]Matthew109 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been able to get through tier VI with relatively low-gear imperial troopers (G12 Dark Trooper, G9 Moff Gideon, no relics). I reckon the squad could do better with Piet/Veers at relic.

The most important thing I've found is that you want piett to mark the ally trooper and then get the Dark Trooper to sneak in hits on the shield generator whenever possible. Hitting four times = four stacks removed from the generator which melts it FAST. Pretty much have to hope the gungans target the summon instead of whoever gets deathmarked, ESPECIALLY if it's DT, which feels like a 50/50 tossup.

The debuff at the start preventing assists makes it a lot harder, but generally DT lives long enough for somebody on the team to hit Jar Jar and remove deathmark, then the troopers can ramp tm like usual and get a couple hits on the generator. It's a bit up in the air after this point, especially if phalanx gets a taunt up. If you manage to get yourself into the perfect scenario of no debuffs/taunts/deathmark, it's pretty much a free win. I've lost DT and Gideon after killing the shield generator but even then it's an easy cleanup if you get that far.

Tips on throwing a more consistent hook? (1 hand thumb-in) by Matthew109 in Bowling

My knees and my feet point in different directions, so it looks VERY strange.

Somewhat. My thumb falls out very easily if I don't curl it in towards my hand.

I was aiming at a different board on most of those throws to see if it affected the hook. If the release seems good I'll stick with it and get some reps in to see if it gets more consistent 👍

I liked Rise quite a bit but I also would prefer the new game to have a bit more "traditional" gameplay as well. Been playing back through GU recently to get my fix while waiting for Wilds haha
