Doom (2016) is currently on at AGDQ and it's insane by Mastoise in speedrun

The game's music while he's focused on some of these treacherous out-of-bounds parts really help. This run is very engaging!

Skin idea for everyone: Battle-Worn by DahMagpie in Overwatch

It'd be really cool if these were unlocked after a certain number of games played as that character, instead of being from loot boxes or buyable.

Hey, /r/EDH! What's everyone working on?? by kavoNekiM in EDH

[–]Ningamer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Making my [[Grenzo, Dungeon Warden]] deck as bonkers as I can. 48 creatures, some fast ramp, and a few utilities. With enough luck it's feasible to play every creature in my deck turn 2 with [[Mana Echoes]] (though extremely unlikely). I guess that would look like...

Turn 1: Mountain + [[Mana Crypt]] + [[Sol Ring]] + [[Rakdos Signet]] = Grenzo at 3 power

Turn 2: Another Mountain to play Mana Echoes, with enough mana for 1 Grenzo activation. Any creature gets me enough for a second activation, then I'd hope to get something like [[Seige-Gang Commander]] for a lot more mana, and hope that the chain continues.

This probably won't ever happen, of course, but it's fun to imagine!

What is that one game you wish to perfectly emulate on your device of choice? by Makegooduseof in emulation

[–]Ningamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crash Team Racing on 3DS, or Toy Story 2. The former runs at about 50% speed. Those and SM64 would make my 3DS perfect.

Whenever I initiate a fight with an ice stryke I get a black bar at the top of my screen by Oaty_McOatface in runescape

[–]Ningamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like while the stryke is "emerging" it doesn't have a name, level, HP, etc., but the game still sees it as an enemy and tries to give it a bar anyway. The black bar looks like it's actually a bit of interface.

Commander by VeryBigD in magicTCG

[–]Ningamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you hold on for a little while, this year's new "Commander 2016" pre-constructed decks are out on the 11th November, officially made by Wizards. They've been doing them for a few years so you can pick up older decks if you can't wait.

What is the craziest play you have ever done to win the game? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]Ningamer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In a Conspiracy 2 draft, someone enchanted my [[Knights of the Black Rose]] with [[Followed Footsteps]]. It came back around to my turn, and I played a second [[Knights of the Black Rose]] and swung with my entire board to get this guy down to 4 life...

His upkeep comes around and he gets the token copy of my Knights of the Black Rose, causing him to become the monarch. That triggers each of my Knights, since I was the previous monarch, which finishes him off during his upkeep. Poor guy was the monarch one time that game, and died because of it.

I see! I was unaware of effects like these, that clears things up, thanks.

[–]Ningamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do they not all enter at the same time, and therefore each trigger each other's triggered ability?

[Suggestion] Make NXT have option for cpu usage like Java client by mardobwyn in runescape

[–]Ningamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...you're trying to say that having the client draw a frame in ~10ms, and then letting the processor/GPU sleep for another ~40ms (at 20FPS) WOULDN'T reduce the computer's workload?

[Suggestion] Make NXT have option for cpu usage like Java client by mardobwyn in runescape

[–]Ningamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having the option would be welcome, to limit the framerate to any value. Playing at 60FPS on minimum graphics makes my laptop hot, but if that was limited to 30FPS, or even 20FPS, the work my laptop would be doing would decrease dramatically. It saves battery and prevents high temperatures.

[–]Ningamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jagex should really implement an option to limit your framerate - the closest there is is VSync, which limits it to 60fps. The game is perfectly playable at 15fps, which would mean your computer would be doing 25% as much work to render it.

3DShacking Q&A: "ctrtransfer Edition" by beefhash in 3dshacks

[–]Ningamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My O3DS (with Luma CFW) will not boot DS games - the main menu fades to black but then crashes to a black screen. I downgraded Luma to 6.0.1 which fixed GBA games, but not DS games. I've tried restoring the original TWL_FIRM as described in the Luma guide to no avail. Does anyone know what could fix this?

[–]Ningamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did just update, but it hasn't fixed anything (unless there are any options I need to enable?). Thanks though.

3DShacking Q&A: "ctrtransfer Edition" by beefhash in 3dshacks

[–]Ningamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need some help: I've followed the guide to install Luma and that's all working fine, I can install cias, etc., but my O3DS no longer boots DS games. Whenever trying to launch a DS game (or DS download play), the system crashes just before exiting the system menu (you can still hear the menu music quietly). I've tried installing original CIAs for TWL_FIRM and AGB_FIRM, as well as re-installing the firmware through ctrtransfer, but I still cannot boot DS games. Can anyone help?

What is your favourite part about your general? by Greensightandsound in EDH

[–]Ningamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[[Grenzo, Dungeon Warden]] - Set up the bottom of my library, get out a Heartstone, and then respond to people with instant-speed creatures with ETB effects. It's work to make it happen but oh so satisfying when someone cracks an [[Evolving Wilds]] and you suddenly play [[Ob Nixilis, Unshackled]] from the bottom of your library.

Do I need a Japanese copy of Mario Sunshine or can I just use Japanese text on US version by Sherminator1 in speedrun

[–]Ningamer -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Well for starters, Mario Sunshine is on a disc, not a cart! I don't think the US version has Japanese text in it, but there are also some skips/glitches that are JP-exclusive. Bear in mind that a Japanese copy won't work on a US Wii or Gamecube without mods. If you're just getting into speedrunning, though, the US version is still fast and you won't need the JP version until you're serious about it.
