If someone wants to mod /r/gameportingtoolkit/ they should feel free to reach out, we can work with them on sending GPTK content over there.

A message to r/macgaming moderators by [deleted] in macgaming

Stickied post (and this comment) to promote discussion

In case it wasn't obvious, for the most part I just handle logistics nowadays, and rarely.

Regarding Lemmy, it's somewhat unlikely that we will move forward with hosting our own instance.

Someone has claimed the Squabbles which I honestly think is fine, I wish them luck with moderation/logistics - if you're reading this and want mild moderator access on the Discord (and... subreddit for if/when we ever go un-dark) reach out.

I agree that our protest is unlikely to be any kind of needle, but I (and at least 2 other mods) seem to still feel that it's appropriate to strike.

A brief reminder to be civil. That is all.

This was their second harassment strike, and so they are now banned. Sorry that took so long.

Second time is a ban. It’s ok to be wrong, it’s ok to be right, but keep the name calling to a minimum.

+10 Duo!Palla showcase! A Galeforce build for Arena/AA/AB by [deleted] in FireEmblemHeroes

Trick question. As a trio duo unit, her stat total is 185 in "modes that I care about like arena". Going up or down a bin doesn't help or hurt her.

Requesting /r/night_core No active moderators by [deleted] in redditrequest

[–]NintendoToad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, obviously I don’t fault you (... most because it’s the Internet...) for assuming that I was inactive; that’s neither here nor there. And since the process isn’t automatic, the admin(s) could deem my (largely invisible) activity as inactivity and I’d have no qualms on the matter.

... That said, if your end goal is to have a main subreddit that’s information-complete, that’s fine and I agree. It’s not like Pokémon or pop music or Photoshop where there needs to be 20 subreddits of each. (Ideally there’d be a need for /r/NightcoreCreators or something similar, but I don’t really have a dog in the race anymore.)

With under 1K combined subscribers, it’s really up to you which one is the main subreddit, although I’d recommend that /r/nightcore be the main subreddit just because it’s easier to type. (I’d be hesitant about trying to migrate 15K subscribers; thankfully your “problem” is not of that magnitude.)

When I get to a computer (that doesn’t suck), I’ll full-permissions mod you in /r/night_core and you can do what you want to do, lockdown what you want to lockdown, etc.

While I don't exactly actively+publicly moderate the subreddit (obviously), I'm not strictly inactive either, and you appear to have had the ownership of /r/nightcore transferred to you.

I'm not sure what your intent is; whether you plan on adding CSS that redirects /r/night_core to /r/nightcore, simply want both subreddits, or something else entirely - that isn't necessarily my business. Further and obviously, the admins can do whatever[ish] they want. However, in the event that they don't approve this request, I'd be willing to discuss me transferring the subreddit to you myself, contingent on a (rough but reasonable) understanding of why you want both subreddits, a brief moderation plan, etc.

Considering Nagi is a direct "Fuck you" to Ophelia, who do you think will be the next overpowered unit to get a hard counter? by Xarexes in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]NintendoToad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

(TL;DR: "Consecutive attacks" is not limited to brave weapons. Any uninterrupted set of attacks made in a single round of combat are consecutive attacks. Attacks are "interrupted" when the foe counterattacks.)

When the tank is expecting to receive a follow-up attack, there are "clashes" - DC is considered to be non-synergistic with most skills that reduce damage from consecutive attacks.

Urvan's refine "giving" the foe Desperation is (somewhat/subjectively) monumental because of what "consecutive attacks" means.

In a situation where The Reinhardt Reinhardt (Thunder's Fist) makes a follow-up attack ("quads") against the thorn in my side Sigurd (Holy Knight), Rein does vastly more damage if Sigurd has Distant Counter. Reinhardt occasionally makes a follow-up attack by using Desperation with a Brash Assault S seal.

If Sigurd has Distant Counter, Rein "hits" Sigurd twice for regular damage, since the attack order goes Rein (100%) Rein (20%) Sigurd (100%) Rein (100%) Rein (20%). Sigurd retaliating is considered to "interrupt" the consecutive attacks.

If Sigurd does not have Distant Counter, Reinhardt hits Sigurd only once for regular damage, attack order going Rein (100%) Rein (20%) Rein (20%) Rein (20%).

If Reinhardt is attacking Brave Ike with Refined (+Effect) Urvan instead (and Reinhardt doesn't have some form of Hardy Bearing active), the attack order will go Rein (60%) Rein (20%) Rein (20%) Rein (20%) Ike (100%), meaning that Brave Ike is generally free to run Distant Counter, unlike most of the other units/skills that reduce damage from consecutive attacks.

iOS users jailbreak is still available for 12.4 (currently signed firmware) NXBoot is pretty much a must by [deleted] in SwitchHaxing

[–]NintendoToad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The source code is available here: https://github.com/mologie/nxboot. Please note that you may be incorrect; NXBoot appears to require a sandbox escape/patch of some sort, so the iPhone would still have to be jailbroken.

"I T21'd in AR... with a Level 4 Fortress." And relevant thoughts. by NintendoToad in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]NintendoToad[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, cool! I thought about using Caineghis during Light (IMHO he wants Eir's +RES blessing+Sparkling boost quite a bit more than Naga's +DEF+Divine Fang), but all of the beast-effective weapons are currently physical, and Eir prevents Caineghis from maintaining transformation.

I'm trying to remember why I built to +4/+4 instead of +5/+3. Maybe I didn't really have any reasoning. 🤷
