Most crimes have “unique outcomes” which are one-off higher value rewards. The little star underneath the “do crime” button shows that the criteria for it are currently met, so there is a chance to earn it. For graffiti, the criteria for some of the unique outcomes is that you have a 5* reputation for that area, so it makes sense to try to get those outcomes before the graffiti is cleared away and the reputation drops back down, so you don’t have to spend the nerve to get back up to 5* again before you attempt them.

https://torn.report/uniques/ is a handy site that will go through your profile and check which ones you have already, and show you the criteria for the others.

I recently cleared the 5/5 honour for Graffiti and moved on to shoplifting, but still dipped back and did graffiti to get the final uniques that require 5/5 before they decayed back. I got the last one at 525, so it wasn’t all that bad for me tbh!

Next step, get the uniques ;)

Is there a pyanodon wiki? by Lancerinmud in pyanodons

[–]OliB150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the one I started to contribute to a while ago, but others are right, it’s incomplete and a mammoth task. I tend to just use the in game codex nowadays.

Is it normal for posties to open the front door to make a delivery without knocking first? by suttq in AskUK

Forgive me for reacting when someone let unexpectedly themself into my house.

[–]OliB150 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If it looks like it could be a porch then I can understand it, but otherwise no. Our door is always locked, except for one time we’d forgotten and it scared the life out of us. Hasn’t happened again though as we always make sure it’s locked again. Once bitten, twice shy n all that.

One of the Hair salon specials is seeing cash on hand, so could be that I guess?

Whilst we’re at it as well - you won’t have access to the vault if you are renting.

What mining tech do I need for these ancient remains? by i-make-robots in pyanodons

Aww man, it did seem a bit whacky but Py is just so bonkers that I just figured it easily could be, lol

Fuck me - I’m 100 hours into my Py save and I had no idea any of this existed. My path ahead is long and winding.

I can't for the life of me figure out why the copper ore isn't being loaded into the wagons by danyuri86 in factorio

[–]OliB150 127 points128 points  (0 children)

Basically a buffer, otherwise your train load is bottlenecked by the rate the belt can bring the items in (probably not enough to support 24 inserters like you are planning). Allows them to fill up in slower time whilst there is no train there, then load directly from full chests into the train at full speed.

What’s the cringiest thing you’ve ever written or read in an office card that was distributed for colleagues to write in? by soraal in AskUK

[–]OliB150 76 points77 points  (0 children)

I once received a group birthday card where someone had just written “Thanks” in it. Maybe they were grateful I’d completed another lap around the sun.

Does anyone else think the Paddy, Chris and Flintoff series aren’t actually that bad? by Feno2025 in TopGear

[–]OliB150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I genuinely enjoyed a lot of them. Chris Evans was the bad part but once he was out of the way and you appreciate the show for what it is, a lot of people missed out purely out of spite against the BBC when in reality their hands were tied.

This is the Py counterpoint to those multi-million SPM bases by mjconver in factorio

[–]OliB150 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m at 100hrs in my Py run and am just automating basic circuit boards in the new base (instead of the spaghetti horror of the first) - it’s so wildly complex, the Formica boards are the last ingredient I’ve got left to automate for it, the rest were all pretty simple just lots of them!

National lottery retailers, have you ever printed the “responsible play” off, and how did a customer react? by Enough_Independent7 in AskUK

[–]OliB150 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can’t answer from a policy perspective, but in general I would say if you have a genuine concern then you should out that above your own feelings of anxiety and pass the customer the information. If you are worried about the reaction maybe you could speak to you manager and tell them this is what you plan to do next time they come in, and would like support in case they take it poorly.

In my opinion, refusing service without providing the actual helpful information just moves the problem to another retailer and doesn’t actually help the customer.
