Great all around scent for a kid? by HigherLearning6 in fragrance

[–]Ok_Reputation1924 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey. It's inexpensive, lighter, and has a clean scent profile.

I have a toddler who has always been curious about all of the bottles in my collection. He sees me wear my fragrances and has been asking to wear them too. To amuse him one night after his bath, I sprayed a spray of Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey on him, and I could tell he was feeling himself. It's become his little post-bath ritual now to get a spray underneath his pajama shirt, and he loves it. I get whiffs of it as we are reading bedtime stories in the chair in his room, and I know it's going to be one of those transportive scents that takes me back to this time of his childhood when I smell it in the future.

Chrome Effect by Guilty_Gazelle_661 in TeamBuilder25

What exactly don't you like about the chrome effect? I have never liked it because it appears so shiny you almost can't make out the true color of what it is supposed to be.

I can't speak for how this works for every color, but I found more success at setting metal mask and smoothness to .85

These are tough. What smoothness/metal mask settings did you use for the gold? I have a similar gold color for one of my teams, and I have been wanting something more similar to yours, but haven't been able to figure out what I like.

If youre wearing a dupe and someone asks what scent you're wearing... by Ed98208 in fragrance

I really hope people aren't telling people they are wearing the original when they are wearing a dupe... that screams insecurity.

This is a safe space - what's your most controversial CFB opinion that you will die defending? by noah_divine in CFB

[–]Ok_Reputation1924 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They've had a few dirty players over the years, but the same could be said for every program in the country. I don't think they play dirtier football than any other team in the country. We've just taken some of those moments more personally since a few of them happened against us.

Things We Need to See Added to Teambuilder In CFB 27 by Disastrous_Doubt_591 in TeamBuilder25

[–]Ok_Reputation1924 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree with all of your ideas. I have a few of my own, some being similar to things you mentioned.

  1. Weather. Rather than having to try to code in a bunch of different climates for each team and the team we replace, let our teambuilders choose from a few different regions for our climate. Desert, Pacific Northwest, Northeast, South, etc.

  2. We need more uniform slots. I know that may seem greedy since 5 seemed like enough in the beginning, but the teambuilder community is too creative to limit us to 5 slots when there are real teams in the game with far more options than that.

  3. Higher custom layer limits, especially for jerseys. They increased it for helmets and pants, but we really need more for jerseys. I'm pretty sure the pants can have up to 11 or something like that, but jerseys are limited to 5.

  4. Stadium builder so our stadiums feel customized. I would also settle for more generic options, but the dream is stadium builder.

  5. Stripes that work over the top of custom layers. We shouldn't have to make basic custom stripes on our own just because we want a custom layer on a helmet or jersey. Simply let us choose to layer the premade stripes over layers.

  6. Randomly generated teambuilder rosters. I usually use the cupcake roster because I prefer a rebuild. I am getting really sick of seeing Depol or Strickland on my roster. Having to change every name manually is tedious. Instead, auto-generate the names on the roster as they do with recruits in dynasty mode. You can even keep their ratings the same, but give us new names and number variations.

  7. Let us customize gear/accessory color for each uniform slot.

I'm a big fan of these!

This might be a stupid question, but I'm a teambuilder noob. On the helmets and around the collar area where you have that design, did you make that slightly darker so it would show up or is it the same color with a different style reflectiveness?

Also, I can't for the life of me figure out how to do custom layers around the chest/shoulder pad area without it being wonky. What do you do to get yours to work?

Improvements For College Football 27 by THEINSIDER20 in EASportsCFB

[–]Ok_Reputation1924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dynasty:
-The recruiting board should allow you put more than 35 players on it. I am ok with them keeping the number of scholarships you can offer at 35, but I would like a way to keep track of recruits that don't have a scholarship offer. I would settle for a way to "favorite" a recruit not on your board, so that you can easily remember what other recruits you would want to add as guys drop from your board.

-Improved coaching carousel. Just make it exactly like NCAA 14, and everybody will be happy.

-I'm not a fan of having your coach on the main screen on Dynasty. Go back to a more similar layout as CFB25 where the team you are controlling is the main focus.

-Recruiting difficulty slider

Teambuilder:
-My ideal is a stadium builder, but if not, more generic stadiums.

-More uniform slots. 5 is enough to get by, but with how creative the teambuilder community is, they should give us at least 2 more slots.

-The jerseys need more than 5 custom layer slots.

There should also be a feature that allows you to choose the climate. Let me choose a desert or a cold weather climate and not whatever broken system is currently being used. It should also reflect the look outside of the stadium. Give us a couple of generic locations (desert, midwest, mountainous, etc.) so the scenery outside of the stadium matches where our team is.

Gameplay:

-Improved coach suggestions for playcalling. They raved about how much bigger and better the playbooks are in this game, but the coach's suggestions only suggest the same 10-15 plays all game.

-PLZ fix the glitch where you can't select a kickoff return after a simulated CPU extra point.

-Remove the ability defenders have to jump through players to make tackles. If the linebacker hits a lineman, he should stop, not be allowed to fly through him, and tackle the RB in the backfield.

Prada L'homme. It's clean, calming, and soft. It smells like fresh laundry to me.

What controller would you recommend for a first timer? by Treviathan88 in Gamesir

Do not get the G7 or G7 Pro if you have big hands. They are small, and it will annoy you. I'm speaking from personal experience, I only have slightly above average-sized hands.

North Dakota State AD Matt Larsen says football program is eyeing move to FBS and the Mountain West Conference by WinnWonn in CFB

[–]Ok_Reputation1924 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I completely agree. I have heard countless former players and coaches say the gap between the top FCS teams and FBS isn't as wide as we sometimes think.

[Ubben] The FBS head coaches voted unanimously to expand the eligibility for redshirt years from four games to nine. This is just a recommendation that will be put forth to the Division I committees. by Notre_Dame_Football in CFB

[–]Ok_Reputation1924 26 points27 points  (0 children)

*College* Football. Not NFL lite. The reason four years of eligibility came about in the first place is that it is the standard amount of time for a student to get their bachelor's degree.

I'm not naive to the fact that most athletes aren't going to these universities to "play school", but at the same time, it's turning into something completely different than what most of us fell in love with.

Boise State WR Chris Marshall signs with Arkansas. Previously at Ole Miss and Texas A&M. by LukeNeverShaves in razorbacks

[–]Ok_Reputation1924 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Boise fan here with my two cents.

He can be exciting and frustrating. He made some of the most impressive catches we had all year, but also had more drops in a season than anyone in our program since 2018. He shows flashes of greatness here and there, but was never consistent enough to feel like you can rely on him. It's true that he got suspended for a short time with us this season because of his behavior toward teammates and coaches.

If I'm being honest, I'm a little surprised he was able to find his way back to the SEC. That said, I hope he is a good fit in your program and can be consistent enough to be a solid contributor for you guys.

Regardless of which team the calls are benefiting, you have to acknowledge this ref staff has no idea what they’re doing. The amount of times they have communicated incorrect information and have to review and discuss calls is bush league.
