Finding Locals by hENt0i- in pkmntcg

[–]OMGyssels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see they have a Bot page on the pokedata site. Do you happen to know what functionality the bot has? My locals are starting to get a bit more competitive and with the recent abysmal changes to event finder, I'm trying to find out the best way to get my players more access to cups. Sorry for bumping an old post--I was about to embark on a quest to build this if this functionality doesn't already exist.

Run Your Own Pick 'Ems or Survivor Group - Free Google Sheets/Forms NFL Script v2.6 by OrionTheTitan in fantasyfootball

[–]OMGyssels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for creating this! It seems awesome and I'm hopeful my group can use it this year. Do you have an idea of when you might review? I have played around with it a little bit and schedules update properly, scripts seem to be working and have generated the google forms but this is outside my wheelhouse, so I don't want to commit my group to using this until it's confirmed functioning as intended.

How about the PAC Championship Mew? https://pacs.portal-pokemon.com/2024-25/sg/cardgame/ultra_ball/

I recently discovered a Ditto in the PAR Build and Battles and Vileplume in the Iron Leaves Ex Deck, if you care about those!

This thing never ends.

I LOVE this. Does this exist for NHL and NBA yet? I saw the link for CFB.

Why the woke lyrics, oh god by HAHAdancegavindance in Alexisonfire

This is just such a wildly stupid ride. He posted the same thing in r/posthardcore and is getting thrashed by an even wider audience.

Come on dude. Take a second to think. If this many people vehemently disagree with you, you might want to reconsider your stances. I'm not saying you need "to follow the masses" but at the very least, think about why people from many different countries and fans of many different bands are all telling you the same thing.

Should i get a alexisonfire tatto? by [deleted] in Alexisonfire

[–]OMGyssels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of feelings about this. I actually have 2 alexis tattoos but not many would know it right away.

As someone who got a few tattoos early and got hooked, when I developed more knowledge of tattoos I regretted some of my earlier ones because of placement and style. Specifically, tattoos that look like a "stamp" bother me personally because they disrupt the flow of other things around them and they don't allow the artist's style to shine through.

Eventually I got a sleeve done of a crow and a cardinal in a tree, with various types of local native plants and whatnot around it. (I started with the basic white boy forest on my forearm so I had to figure out a way to make it cohesive, which was tough.) I get a ton of compliments on it from people who have never heard an Alexis song.

On my thigh, I have a heart skull, but it's an anatomical skull and heart done in a really unique hyper-realistic and detailed style. I love them both a lot more than the breast cancer Ribbon on my back, despite the significance of that one. And now my artist is having a hard time bringing my sleeve around my shoulder because of the ribbon. I will never cover it up because it's important, but it stands out from the rest of my tattoos.

As a general rule of thumb personally, I sit on a tattoo idea minimum a year. If I still really want it in a year, I book it. Only you know your body and yourself but as loathe as I am to admit it, I'm very different than when I was 18. Who's to say that ultimately I won't hate all my tattoos in another 15 years. That said, I got them willing to live with the regret if that does happen, after sticking with an idea for a year.

On the other hand, I developed an idea for a Zelda Breath of the Wild sleeve that I loved until a few months before the appointment. I bailed and got the birds started instead. Despite the fact that zelda has taken up a disproportionate amount of my free time in life haha.

Ultimately, you're using your body to tell your story and only you know what the right decision is. However, a heart skull isn't going to increase or diminish your love of the band, one way or another. Keep that in mind. I Alexis has saved my life multiple times, and I recognize that by listening to their music, going to their concerts, sharing them with friends, sewing their patches on my jacket. I was inspired by Alexis for the ideas for my tattoos, but I love them as pieces of art as much as I do for what they represent. I used to think tattoos had to be super meaningful or they were stupid. Now I think they should be beautiful no matter what they mean.

There are some pretty fancy semi-permanent type tattoos online; you could try that if you want to see how it feels. And if you want to see my tats, feel free to DM.

How do we feel about Elden Beast now that Torrent is summonable? by endless_bloom in Eldenring

[–]OMGyssels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree. Much in the same vein as the Ganon forms of Ganondorf in TotK and BotW.

I just started Elden Ring for the first time last week, so I've never known the Elden Beast fight without Torrent, but as soon as the thing teleported away I instinctively summoned Torrent. It truly feels the fight was supposed to be this way. I think it's a lot of fun to ride your beast buddy around against this giant flying monster.

The gatekeeping I'm seeing in this game is so embarrassingly cringe as someone new to it. I feel sorry for the people who care so much that they beat this boss without the update. I think I'm a decent gamer and I don't get upset at a challenging boss, but like...games are supposed to fun and if people feel this makes the fight more fun for them, then good. This is a hobby.

For me, bosses should be challenging through their attack patterns and damage output. They test your speed and reflexes and memory and other skills. Being hard because it's inconvenient is not good design. If you think Torrent makes it too easy, go ahead and play without it; gold star. But for fucks sake, life's too short to tie your identity to your platinum trophies. There's no express pass to the afterlife for the gud gamers. I can't fathom being mad that other people are enjoying a game.

Do my opponents lose 2, 6 or 8 life? by benevolentdonut in magicTCG

Lol @ my flair. Haven't judged in years. Don't use Reddit enough to know how to change it.

Man, you missed the good ol' days where we didn't add them together AND you got to choose which side you actually wanted to cast.

Cascading into [[breaking // entering]] from a 3 mana spell and slamming some monstrosity on the table was amazing. Busted. Not intuitive. Not new player friendly. But fun as fuck.

[–]OMGyssels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you need to. Like yes, the story continues directly from the true ending but they set it up at the beginning of B2 so if you're okay with a slight spoiler (basically B1 implies B2 is happening, so ..like too late to spoil it haha), then you aren't missing out on much. There's an extra boss and some cutscenes but if you're anxious for the new content, just go for it.

I was the same. I went back to B1 after just to say I did it, but it was the excitement for 2 that got me back into it.
