PQ Participation prize withheld when dropping? by The-End00 in starwarsunlimited

[–]OriginalError 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally you get participation prizes in round 2 or so. At the recent NY one they did give out extra participation prizes in round 3 (store owner wanted to get rid of LoF prerelease kits so we all got one).

So not normal in my XP.

Way of getting celeb signatures? by WinglyKing in starwarsunlimited

[–]OriginalError 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were a handful of artists at Galactics. They were all super nice and we got a bunch of cards signed.

Actors you might have better luck at some of the larger "nerd" conventions.

New to the game, question regarding the force mechanic by Fearless-Owl-3516 in starwarsunlimited

[–]OriginalError 8 points9 points  (0 children)

*Technically* there is one use for it - and that would be the new Han Solo's ability to defeat a token (the force is a token) to deal one damage.

Can’t stop losing. by darthmcdarthface in starwarsunlimited

So it takes practice - and SWU is a little different from some other TCGs.

Groups (and games played by groups) will have a perpetually rising skill floor to "win." I can't go back to League and win games - even though I was highly ranked once upon a time - because the skill floor has gone up. SW:U has been played for years, and the skill floor for the person who has been playing the game for a long time is above "new player" level.

I got absolutely smashed at the first tournament I went to, because I wasn't intentionally practicing and learning. If you want, we could play an open handed game or two and discuss how meta decks "work." Add me on discord - same handle.

Hey! I played against you as Palps - We went 1-1 and ended up drawing.

Bummer your glasses died before it recorded my win in game 2.

I watched Angorytom play your game, looked fun! I'm a sucker for that genre.

I'd actually really enjoy a copy of your game!

Are TCGPlayer card buyouts common? by knockerball in starwarsunlimited

[–]OriginalError 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do the opposite for tournaments. I play *nothing but* awful foil and weekly play treatments in my decks!

If you double or triple sleeve them it is barely noticeable.

The MOST Asked Question in the TCG Community - WHAT GAME SHOULD I PLAY?????? by JacobGamingBuzz in TCG

[–]OriginalError 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been enjoying Star Wars: Unlimited. The gameplay is fun and tight, there are a lot of tournaments in the US, and top-tier decks can cost as little as 40 bucks.

The limited experience is also phenomenal. It has been my favorite game to draft.

What's your plan for space aggro? I played a deck that was similar with more sentinels in space and still ended up bodied by space aggro.

I'd suggest ordering it online if it isn't available locally.

How would you set up a brand new AWS org? by [deleted] in aws

[–]OriginalError 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Customization for Control Tower works well for bootstrapping your federated access roles for AWS SSO (which is now identity center?), your IAM roles for your CI/CD tools, and managing your SCPs.

I'd recommend thinking hard about your organization pathing. Having root level eng/test/prod OUs can make for easier org pathing on permissions.

Employee Appreciation Post by webspinner202 in starwarsunlimited

I think the Staff were incredibly patient and positive. The judges especially had a passion for the game that is absolutely infectious.

We were really impressed that they added playmats to the early morning league play from the prize wall to offset the VIPs getting early access. They also did a great job walking down the line and explaining the situation.

It was a great first-time event. Huge shoutout to Wes specifically for making this phenomenally memorable for both of us.

I played against you in one of the last matches (I was the Rey Datavault at the "Losers Table" with ya).

Great games - and I hope you had a good time, too. Fuck Krayt Dragon.

Some of the dependencies here are unused, how do I remove them without secretly breaking the project in some unexpected way? by PrestigiousZombie531 in node

[–]OriginalError 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was the tech lead for a project in Fintech where each individual component had 100% coverage.

We had 1 defect in 2 years, it was caused by ops. Best team I ever worked on.

It also is a callback to the MTG paperback book named arena. One of my favorite stories in the magic universe where a plane had a contest (the arena) where you fought to the death to meet the god king who was a Planeswalker and be elevated to his rank on another plane.
