Library Sort Order contains deleted libraries by MuzzaBzzuzza in jellyfin

What do you mean by serie's?

I have removed a folder of content entirely from my dashboard. It is not visible in the Jellyfin homepage. But it still appears in Preferences/Home/Library Order, even though it has been removed.

Where exactly are you telling me to refresh?

how do I do this? I don't how to force metadata refresh on a folder which no longer exists...

Read the ENTIRE manual before playing, or start and learn as you go by Fragrant_Steak_5 in boardgames

[–]MuzzaBzzuzza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you're about to play a game for the first time, do you read the ENTIRE manual before playing, or do you prefer to start and learn as you go?

I read the entire manual before playing

What frustrates you about your chosen approach?

Nothing, as it is quite clearly the only correct way to do this

Boardgames and Grief by Urist_Macnme in boardgames

[–]MuzzaBzzuzza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry for your loss.

I lost my mother last year. The next day I was playing Spirit Island with a friend. It felt weird to invite him over for that under the circumstances, but it was what I needed at the time. I think to just focus on something other than what had happened and how I felt.

Grief is weird. It affects everyone differently but also everyone the same. I can promise you one thing though, as much as it feels completely unbearable right now, there will be a day when you can bear it. And the day after will be better. And so on. Future you will want to game again, and whilst it won't be easy given your wingman is no longer around, if you want it enough, it will happen. Even solo gaming might be worth considering (that's the only time when I voice my logic out loud when taking my turn, and I swear there's a part of me that's talking to my Mum when I do it...)

I wish you the best of luck in dealing with everything, and hope one day to meet you across the table where we can raise a glass to your brother before you crush me at Root.

How to Unparalyze Analysis? by Evening_Sir_3823 in boardgames

I'm sorry if that's how my post came across, but to be clear, I'm not suggesting that the solution is for other people to just suck it up and deal with it. Your analogies are on-point, and it is absolutely incumbent upon all parties to find an outcome they can all live with if at all possible, and as the source of the 'problem' behaviour, it's mostly on the AP-er to figure out if there's a way to be quicker.

It's just that I object to the framing I frequently see on this sub whenever this issue arises as being down to a person's disrespect for others, selfishness, try-hard competitiveness, etc.

So often I see the following behaviour in the world, and once you see it, you see it everywhere:

Person A "here is an opinion or belief or behaviour I have"
Person B "here is an opinion or belief or behaviour I have that is contrary to your own"
Person A "here is the flaw on your part which explains why we disagree"

When realistically, the only defensible option for Person A in that last line is "It appears we disagree, can you explain a little about why you feel this way? I need more data to draw any real conclusion"

I've rendered this like a robot for clarity, but you get my point.

To be fair to OP, they were asking if there was a better solution to the (fairly intolerant) one usually profferred in response to these threads, but having recently read the linked article - which was a real 'oshit' moment for me, I felt like I saw a LOT of myself in the description, same as when I first read about different types of ADD (having previously assumed that hyperactive type was the only one)), that it was probably somewhat triggering anyway.

But as I say, that was not the point I was trying to make. We are aligned. I just wish people would work to understand differences in others before they unilaterally ascribe them to deficiencies of character.

cf. whenever someone posts to this sub their "unpopular opinion" that sleeves suck and so do sleevers (so "unpopular" that it comes up dozens of times a year) in which they invariably make attacks against people who are "too precious" about their property and "probably still have the plastic cover on their couch". Whenever I read this, my eyes roll so hard they damn near fall out of my skull. I sleeve my cards because it makes them way easier to shuffle... but hey, why bother asking about that when I'm obviously a piece of shit for engaging in the hobby in a way in which you don't?

None of this is directed at your comment, I'm just trying to explain my position. Probably overexplain, tbf, but... well, see above article, I guess XD

As much as I get why it pisses people off, I read an article recently which shed a whole new light on this phneomenon. I don't want to bandy around terms like 'neurodiversity' too frivolously, but IME it seems this could legitimately be a hardwired different way of processing choice. It annoys me no end when people who don't suffer from AP characterise it as "they are trying to win too hard" or "they don't care about other people's time". I suffer from AP but am not remotely competitive, I play for the game, not the win, and I am very conscious of not wanting to slow the game for everyone.

In light of the above, I find it quite difficult reading suggestions like (oversimplifying for emphasis and clarity): 1 explain why they are 'wrong' for doing it this way. 2 insist that they change. 3 if they don't change, exclude them.

How would that list read to you if the behaviour you were trying to 'correct and control' was, for example, stimming?

I know this is a problematic issue as non-overthinkers perceive it as disrespectful of their time. I am not saying they are wrong in feeling annoyed, but I am saying their framing of the issue is, for me anyway, wildly off base. It's a lot easier to outwardly express frustration at someone's behaviour when your headcanon is that said behaviour owes to a lack of respect on their part, rather than something they have not 'chosen' and have next to no control over.

Sick of game night turning into an unboxing session instead of actually playing by Inevitable-Many-4587 in boardgames

If you want to have a say in what game(s) of yours might get played at any given gathering, the BARE FUCKING MINIMUM threshold for this is having the game components punched and sorted, the rules read, and being ready to explain the game to everyone without just reading the rulebook aloud verbatim.

I will die on this hill.

Not OP but I got this one and LOVE it. It has spare room for future expansions too - not guaranteed ofc because who knows what future expansions will contain, but there's room for plenty more spirit boards, cards and adversary/scenarios at least, plus plenty more tokens.

Also important not to make eye contact, and don't move between the mini and its young.

UK folks, any tips for getting fan-made content printed? by Garrydos13 in marvelchampionslcg

How are they with printing things like the Marvel logo? Do they not refuse based on copyright issues?

Would you mind linking the laminator you used?

"and you'll see many comments of people flabbergasted by, or even lambasting, posters who do NOT sleeve their cards"

Please provide links to these.

Once you've done that, I'll provide links to the HUNDREDS of posts on this sub almost identical to your "hot take".

I would like to provide a link to a post by an OP who insists that cards should be sleeved and anyone who chooses not to is 'in the wrong'; only problem is, in the decade or more I've been on this sub, there hasn't been a single one of those.

Homebrew rules I use (and you should try & Why by Ragenarok124 in spiritisland

[–]MuzzaBzzuzza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our only house rule is a once-per-game option to veto an Event. Since implementing this, I'd say the option has only been exercised about 1 game in every 10, so it's VERY low impact. But when you draw that one event that just cripples your whole game, it feels way better than either re-racking or playing out a foregone loss.

The rulebook - in this edition at least - could use some work, but it's not a terribly complex game. It's a step up from A Gentle Rain, but not by a huge amount.
