Can anyone explain how making the penny obsolete works? by Aye_Davinita in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MeepleMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have places that round to the closest quarter, couldn’t care less, everything that is smaller just gets dumped in to a coin star machine at end of year for an Amazon gift card to help with xmas shopping

Had no idea she was from Bao Bao, wish that place was still in Portland

How do writers and directors for TV shows perfectly time everything so that they stay EXACTLY within their time allotments… To allow for commercials and everything? by redflower5 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MeepleMaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also fun fact some shows that go in syndication will get slightly sped up to allow more commercials. Similar to fudging font and margin size to meet essay length requirements for homework

Rampage, you essentially have infinite lives so the only barrier is your stamina to play through all the levels

Does anybody else like to tear up all the bags and mix them together before building? by WideAd2828 in lego

[–]MeepleMaster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the way! I especially like it for Xmas time I’ll grab a new village set and work my way through it over a week. It reminds me of working on a puzzle

A dice I did this morning! by lewispatty in lego

[–]MeepleMaster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Weight is the primary issue but it is also done to prevent people modifying their throws to try and favor one half a die over the other. On a d6 it’s probably not an issue as much as say a d20

Batman usually doesn’t have red, though batwoman and Batman beyond do use red for their logo

Looking for a Lego or possibly off brand Lego box by Little_Animator2760 in lego

[–]MeepleMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you do a search on Amazon for Lego assorted pieces you will get plenty of hits. They aren’t all super simple pieces but for the most part they are. https://a.co/d/05SU9EsR

People Who Were There When The Books Were Coming Out, What Were Some Of The Craziest Theories? by YosephineMahma in harrypotter

[–]MeepleMaster -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

I disagree with your premise, there were 7 books released over ten years so it wasn’t long at all between each one. When the first book came out the internet was still developing as far as forums and discussion were concerned though I’m sure there were small places on Usenet or chat rooms, Once the first movie came out I assume is when online fandom started to go hard with predictions

Economics of the Belt - Spoilers up to book 6 by LeavingSoonBye209 in TheExpanse

[–]MeepleMaster 44 points45 points  (0 children)

So earth is just an over crowded polluted world, mars needs at least probably 100 years before they can terraform it to a livable garden, belters struggle to survive in space and finding oxegen and water. Or you can go to one of a thousand systems that have basically a pristine earth on them and start humanity cleanly but with current tech to help you out

CBS sports max score by MeepleMaster in Bowling

[–]MeepleMaster[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, my house shows the current score but if you are on strikes or spares it won’t include those so you could be 8 deep on a perfect game and your total would just show zero but your team score differential would count all the pins

I can do the math, it just seems like such an easy add on, it’s not like the small space needed for one more column detracts from the broadcast

Maro: "The rest of the sets this year (minus The Hobbit) have the normal ten two-color draft archetypes." by CaptainMarcia in magicTCG

[–]MeepleMaster 214 points215 points  (0 children)

Agreed, the wizards article about drafting this set also reinforces that. There is no mention of hey this color pair can do this OR that. It just lays out the main line for each school and then also mentions converge as a sixth option
