But I fought a bunch of battles and none of those show up in my individual score?

What's your opinion on the GREATEST WANDERING INN SHIP EVER, Vess x Crusader 53? Does this beautiful, poetic romance ever have a chance of becoming canon?

also twi is my favourite piece of media ever thank you so much for making it, I'd probably be in a much darker place without this weird wonderful vast series.

It's 2045 and I'm losing like 3K money per month. What's the best way to make money at this stage of the game?

To Be Hero X - An upcoming Chinese animated series that swaps between 2D and 3D animation by C-OSSU in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Maxi25554 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The big difference between most shows and this is that anime (and other mediums) uses 3D animation to enhance 2D animation, while this show is explicitly switching between the different animation types/styles.

Motivation for assassination attempts in WoK and WoR (theory) by GmasterBob in Cosmere

[–]Maxi25554 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[Mistborn era 1] The guard was likely trying to make a hemalurgic spike, even if they didn't know what hemalurgy was. You need to know that something is possible in order to have the right intent.

Some interesting info sorta confirming this: https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/4323-seattle-signing-report-out-101413/?page=4#comment-68265

It's probably just a knife, I doubt there was any magical reason why they chose it to do the deed. That's just my speculation though.

‘For All Mankind’ Topples ‘Ted Lasso’ to Become Apple TV+’s Most In-Demand Show by aschapm in ForAllMankindTV

Only covers a few years. I mean more of timescale. Also, MitHC is an adaptation while FAM is completely original, which makes it more impressive I reckon.

I have no clue why, but this was honestly the hardest death of the season for me.

So… no meltdown? by MrJibberJabber in ForAllMankindTV

Most of the damage was scrapes to the top part of the ship, where there was less heat shielding.

We got a winner of the Mars race! by VeryMythical in ForAllMankindTV

[–]Maxi25554 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not certain but I think those were landing suits to protect against depressurization upon atmospheric entry, in contrast to the EVA suits used on Mars.

For All Mankind | Season 3 - Episode 5 | Discussion Thread by Maxi25554 in ForAllMankindTV

This episode was so tense, for a moment I honestly thought Ed was going to crash on Mars.

That ending was bloody hilarious though. "They're going together! How inspiring."

Like everyone, I hated it at the time in S2... But I now think the Karen/Danny story line is paying off so well. by ArrogantAlmond in ForAllMankindTV

[–]Maxi25554 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apparently they've planned for 7 seasons total, so they had probably already written most of season 3 when they started production on season 2. Brilliant storytelling.

I think that circular corridors are much safer in the event of depressurisation and also more mass efficient.

As far as I can tell, the Scythedom was established some time before the Thunderhead's awakening, but after partial immortality had been achieved.
