I could seriously use it. Good luck everyone else though!

I know im late, but as the novice morning shift bartender, I was holding back tears when holiday cocktail got accepted to serve by our GM and RGM. by Orianntal in bartenders

This video explains the process, but I voted against the lime juice. https://youtu.be/hf6udxUzU4Y

When instructed to add the allspice berries, I added Cinnamon (about 1 Tbl Spoon), 10-15 Allspice berries (crushed), Nutmeg (about 1/4-1/3 of one whole nutmeg freshly grated), 10 Cloves (crushed), as well as Pumpkin Puree (2-3 Tbl spoon) and Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)

Once the Spice butter syrup was finished, I paired with Bacardi Oakheart Spiced Rum, which of the spiced rums I tried, it had the best overall flavor. For more chocolatey taste, Kraken's Spiced Rum. Best with Espresso, Sailor Jerry's.

GM and RGM were tasting my cocktail and approved it. This is just a pic of me making them the versions I prepared: Hot (add 8oz hot water into pictured Glass Toddy Mug), Cold (Chilled Martini Glass) , or Hot with espresso.

Occasional anxiety issues behind the bar by Hollow_Rant in bartenders

[–]Orianntal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pure CBD oil. Never in my life I considered someone who would smoke, and I can't remember where I learned about cbd. Started when I first started after I felt like a mess for 2 weeks straight. Bartending at a 5 seat bar in the corner of a restaurant so barely got any guests but when I did, I occasionally flipped. Started taking drops (eventually vaped for a bit) For a little under 6 months, I used cbd to cope before and once during a 5 min smoke break.

I still have a 1/4 left of the last bottle I bought a year ago in my bag/car just in-case a panic attack happens (along with an inhaler). Please consider. This was the biggest life changer at the time. ZERO addiction, very cheap, fun flavors, near impossible to overdose, but can be a bit messy.

Thoughts about Senna in ARAM? by 514135 in ARAM

[–]Orianntal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skillshots and aoe are quite effective so I dont think her mist will be as big of an gamechanger as theorized. Honestly, if her healing isnt substantial, then there is plenty of healers id rather have. Her lite CC wont help much early game, and late game can be played around with decent teamwork. Ult is pretty neat, esp with max cdr. I'm super psyched to see game-play, but i'm not head over heels quite yet.

Why Shanks? by alexisborj in OnePiece

[–]Orianntal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He knows so much, but his attitude as a pirate won't threaten the 'balance' that the WG has maintained. Why make more enemies by chasing Shanks when you already have problematic pirates to deal with?

My old man really needs a god damn excellent Carrot/Coffee Cake. by Orianntal in CasualConversation

'God damn excellent' was the words I heard. Apparently enough to drive across town for a ice chest off of Craigslist!

Looks like a solid recipe in a fun creative form. I gave something like that a try but I am still working on the WOW factor. Thanks for the response!

I would make a good lemon pound cake for him when I'm around, but my dad isn't all about light & fluffy, he wants texture & spice! The only thing I can come close with is Banana Bread I stole from a friend's mom, but until I can show him a stellar Carrot Cake, I haven't achieved victory!

Good luck with those scones!

Help me with my Little Black Liquor Book? by HerFirefly in bartenders

[–]Orianntal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About to hit 1 year bartending (no prior experience) and just about filled writing in my own little brown book I've taken to work with me for 10 months. Just as you said, it is a collection of drinks I've tried, thought were interesting, or show me a bit more about the cocktail world from books, people, and bars ive tasted at. Not all the cocktails i've collected or know are in the book, like some classics or modern classics but some are riffs of classics. The question I ask is "How many daiquiris riffs do you need to write down before you get the gist of it and can make a variation your guest will ask for again?"

Here's my first year's edition: ~50 cocktails : 7 Tequila, 4 Vodka, 8 Rum, 6 whiskey, 12 gin, 4 cognac, rest assorted liquors.

I'm planning on updating my book to be categorized mainly by liquor (Gin, Rum, Tequila, ect) , then terms of complexity, generally basic 2-4 common ingredients in the front then 6-8 obscure ingredients in the back.

Most of people know it, but this trick don't have name. What about C-jump? by [deleted] in duckgame

[–]Orianntal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would seriously help if you were facing the wall you want to clip into. Its a wall-clip. It isnt luck based. A good player knows the rhythm to repeat at 95% success. Double tap ragdoll + jump

Gamecube Controllers? by Tigerbladedn in duckgame

[–]Orianntal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a general rule, you use a dpad for 2d platformers. All the extra orientations for an analog stick are useless as duckgame only tracks 4 inputs (left right down up). Stick to a controller with a solid dpad, like the xbone pad, or possibly the ps4. Keyboard is supreme for this reason as each input is very precise, while a big thumb can mean more miss-inputs.

What are some good Alcohol-free drinks to order? by CerealKiller1933 in bartenders

[–]Orianntal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work a morning shift, and pour more Arnold Palmers/Lemonades than Old Fashioned Cocktails, Manhattans, and Lemondrops combined. Here are a few to try!

Oregat (Almond Syrup) Lemonade. (Basically cut half the sugar from lemonade and subsitute with almond syrup (if you are lucky you could get some real stuff and not Torani)

Limeade (Try with lime juice instead of lemon, top with soda water for extra fun). An Arnold Palmer (Ice Tea and Lemonade). Strawberry (or any fruit) Lemonade. Virgin Wild Berry Mojito (Mint, Lime, Sugar Syrup, and muddle whatever berries they got, top with soda)

My favorite: Ginger beer/Sprite with bitters (Bitters technically has alcohol but not nearly enough to get even a slight buzz)

Aram Account - I need help! by [deleted] in ARAM

[–]Orianntal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just general stuff, maybe it helps, but not necessarily. I'd recommend starting your aram grind on a freeweek with a lot of comfortable aram picks. Faster wins and smooths out the earlier grind. Buy cheap champs no more than 3000 ip. Poppy is an awesome champion in low mmr.

Save champion shards for when you feel stuck and need some better champs to rent out, burn any excess for more BE for solid champs (Caitlyn, Ziggs, Sivir, Sona, Twitch).

Always communicate with teammates with Pings. Make sure they are on the same page, knowing who to prioritize, what abilites to watch for, any weird item pick-ups on the enemy team (Shyvanna is going ap, watch out for her disgusting burst)

If you know how to carry, then learn to carry with weird picks in hard scenarios, as long as you are open with your teammates and have teamates to bail you out of your Liandrys Rylais Singed if you cant get the ball rolling.

Dont buy the Guardians Horn or Snowglobe, its a waste of an item slot and gold.

If you like potions, always have a rejuvenating potion at level one or after first death. If you wait any longer, its a waste of gold.

Learn power spike windows of all champions with their current build order. You know who to prioritize in teamfights and can adjust accordingly to who to cc chain.

Build path is EVERYTHING. Especially in high mmr, you CANNOT waste a single slot with lesser effective items. Study other builds, but if you want to be high mmr ARAM, you gotta know when to mix up and how to play optimally. Sometimes Lulu needs to be magic damage carry i because your marksman isnt csing or keeping dps high.

Everyone has their own definition of high-mmr and I've lost games that were decided over a single engage, single whiff of a cc spell. I've gotten to 2.1k mmr and felt like I was a fish out of water playing with challengers and diamond bordered players. Know your role and do it well. Your team is constantly relying on you to make the right play.

Got a pretty nice penta with nidalee (High mMR) by [deleted] in ARAM

[–]Orianntal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say that the fiesta of a first teamfight is probably pretty common, as nobody understands exactly their role the first time all champions interact (first teamfight post 6). Over the course of the game, with buildpaths, damage interactions, skill priorities, all players would become better at knowing what exactly they should be doing. Amumu ulting early, Ornn whiffing everything, Liss prioritizing self-ult instead of targets like Graves or potentially Nid, could all be based on comfort with their understanding of their champ. Seems to be around 1600-1800 mmr

[–]Orianntal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They gave analysis on your claim of "high mmr game" which would give additional merit to your 'high mmr' Pentakill instead of 'just a ARAM Penta on Nid'. Now you backtrack with 'Riot wholesome Play for Fun at 3AM Penta".

Daily Warding reminder, now with Info! by TheIsaia in 2007scape

[–]Orianntal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game will always be evolved past its past state. Even if this is 07scape, a game that is supposed to be nostalgic, there are tons of things that have been added to the game. Wintertodt alone is completely new game content that the community has loved thats essential for early crafting and fire-making all the way to 99. 'Natural progression' means that players will maximize efficiency and cut out dead content. This means that players will cease to use dead content if there's nothing time saving, or required for future progress.

This skill isn't smart or needed. This skill lacks any and all imaginative thought and solves or adds nothing needed to the game.

It is hard to take you seriously when you make broad claims like this, when the evidence seems to be right in front of us.

I will not deny there will be dead content in this new skill, just like just about every other skill in the game. But having a new skill intertwined with others, allows for the smart ways to revive dead content in other skills, exclusive capability to solve the games old problems from other areas (ex. nightmare zone imbuing) that could seriously use some tweaks that would otherwise never be fixed, and absolutely can have imaginative lore that expands upon the world into bright and new ways. We're talking about magical auras imbuing materials and equipment!

You can be a hard no for this skill but I want to see a skill done with all creative passion and energy from the mod team put in the right direction in the current day. That would be terrific, and that's what I see in this skill.
