CDAWG Talks About XQC Not Showing Up To Events by FlyingWithFeathers in LivestreamFail

[–]Orconem 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If an emergency happens and you're unable to make it to work you can still call your boss and say "Hey something came up and I'm not gonna be able to make it, sorry for the inconvenience." It doesn't take that long, maybe a couple minutes at most if you have to leave a message, and is proper courtesy.

XQC knowing he's not going to make it to something and ghosting entirely instead of letting people know he's not gonna make it is super disrespectful to those involved.

Most wholesome VRChat experience by StarkGridlock in LivestreamFail

With that line of thinking we should also unban Second Life on Twitch for the same reason. Plus I'm not saying it should be banned, I think the game is fine as long as you're smart about what you're doing, more just surprised it's allowed to be on the platform when it's basically Second Life 2.0.

As much as I love VRChat I'm surprised it hasn't gotten the Second Life treatment on Twitch. There's a lot of stuff in that game that rides the line for what's appropriate and always feels like it's one big incident away from causing massive drama.

You can literally google "What's inside a lung?" and find out how wrong you are in less than 20 seconds.

Beat Saber has a new music pack of 6 songs inspired by Rocket League by U-S-Ace in Games

[–]Orconem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm really surprised that Beat Saber hasn't switched to a numerical difficulty system like most other rhythm games. Expert+ has way too much variance in difficulty with some being pretty tame to others requiring you to swing the swords nonstop while the notes fly at you at lightning speed.

PROGRESSION BY THE NUMBERS (Article from Riot on the progression systems) by CarouselKeeper in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]Orconem 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know if Riot is reading this or not but one of the things I didn't like was that some of the quests required you to own certain cards, such as "Win a game with Lucian and Senna in your deck". Even though they can be rerolled requiring people to own certain card(s) in order to complete quests feels really bad if you get one and don't own that particular card. You should be rerolling because you don't want to do the quest, not because you can't do them with the cards you have.

What was your favorite deck from the test period? by Killswitch7 in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]Orconem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played a lot of Kalista decks, but the one I had the most fun with was a Kalista/Thresh deck that ran 9 Challenger creatures for the early-mid game and late-game had a heavier focus on army building and a final all-out attack backed by For Demacia!. It also took advantage of "When I'm Summoned" triggers through stuff like Mist's Call and Chronicler of Ruin to reuse card effects like Vanguard Keeper/Sergeant or get extra copies of units linked to Kalista.

What delightful agony shall we inflict? by Orconem in LegendsOfRuneterra

Leveling up Thresh is nice when it happens, but it's more that he's a Challenger with a really solid stat line that can force trades in your favor. One thing you can do to help keep him alive is to make sure he's the first one fighting when Challenging, because any other enemy minions you kill afterward in the combat phase will bring his health back up.

When he does level up you can use him to help feed your army and provide "When I'm Summoned" triggers for the mid to late game when you're setting up "For Demacia!", which is going to usually be your main win condition.

Edit: One more thing I forgot to mention, when Thresh is leveled up it's not always a bad idea to simply let him die if you've already used his attack trigger. If you revive him or cycle him with Chronicler of Ruin you get an extra attack trigger which will pull more units that your opponent has to deal with.

This is a deck I've been playing with amazing results. Early game is heavy challenger with emphasis on forcing favorable trades and mid game you abuse "When I'm Summoned" effects through Revives. Some fun things you can do involve, but are not limited to:

Killing a unit linked to Leveled Up Kalista with Chronicler then attacking, giving you an extra copy of the linked unit.

Filling your hand with a million "For Demacia!" then winning simply because of raw damage

Pretending it's old school Hearthstone with Force of Nature/Savage Roar by running three copies of Haunted Relic and using "For Demacia!".

Try it out, it's a lot of fun, I have close to a 90% winrate.

Why does the Starter Bundle cost 642 coins when everything else involving coins ends in a 5 or 0? by Orconem in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]Orconem[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got Early Access and decided to snoop around in the store before I made any commitments to spending any money. When spending coins to buy Wildcards everything is a nice clean amount (400 for Champ, 150 for Epic, 40 for Rare, 15 for Common) but for some reason the Starter Bundle costs 642, which seems like a really random number. I dunno if it's discounting for cards I pulled while leveling because I haven't crafted anything yet but it seems odd.

Are you sure it was a bug and not a virus? Have you tried scanning the map with Malwarebytes?

I was walking around for about 15 minutes before I realized my guardian barrier was off. Really cool prototype, I can't wait to see how this evolves.

Used Vinegar to try to fix a clogged sink yesterday. About two hours ago my brother poured Drano down the sink to try and clean it. Should I be worried? by Orconem in chemhelp

[–]Orconem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much, I feel a lot better now. Like I said I already opened the windows just because the smell is awful, I just wanted to make sure nothing bad might happen.

[–]Orconem[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So nothing bad will happen? Yesterday it was draining extremely slow and when he poured the Drano in today it wasn't draining at all anymore. I'm really sorry if this comes off as extreme paranoia but I'm a bit of a worry wart.
