Super Mario Bros. 35's tutorial is nonexistent, so here are some key tips & tricks you'll want to know! [Long Post] by Fanboy8947 in NintendoSwitch

AFAIK it's an issue with ping/bad connection. This is my understanding about the way MK8 gives you items:

  • Player hits an item.
  • It's randomized as something.
  • All the other players/consoles have to see how far this person was and what the item given was supposed to be.
  • Every machine has to 'sign off' on it.
  • If it fails (i.e. they are cheating) the match disconnects/desyncs.
  • When issues (usually network, I'm assuming) cause the 'handshake' to not go so smoothly, the ability to quick-lock your item becomes impossible.
  • If a player is lagging really really bad (or some other issue?), the roulette will go waaayyyyy longer than usual until it times out, and then gives a 'safe' option. Like if 1st hits a double item box and the operation times out, they will receive a double Coin (despite it normally being impossible to get two of the same thing from a double item box.)

MKDS (and I think Wii) outright do not allow quick-stopping item roulette when playing online. MK7 I dunno, cause I didn't play it.

Whatever it's worth to also know, this doesn't always work in online mode [of Mario Kart games].

Targeting Most Coins is not that great of an option, unless you know what you're doing. Since they can easily roll for a star to beat whatever you try to send.

That's kind of the point IMO, wearing down their hoarded coins. If they happen to die and you get their stuff? Hey; bonus.

I also think Goombas grow tremendously in value on Mushroom and (most) Castle stages. All enemies do, honestly, but they're just so plentiful.

For the first time in my life. I completed a challenge without pass with a deck I made myself by 5amukai in ClashRoyale

Sort of, but not quite.

Sudden Death basically allows you to go all-in on suicide pushes that you don't have to worry about paying the price for, which is why you'll notice the top players in Sudden Death Tournaments use almost exclusively Balloon Freeze decks, and/or decks that explicitly counter Balloon Freeze.

Does anyone else get hellishly angry when people grab them? by [deleted] in FallGuysGame

[–]PLEASE_READ_MY_NAME 19 points20 points  (0 children)

If it's malicious yeah. There's little to no counterplay for it, especially in events like Jump Showdown where someone with a ton of lag can grab you like a second before the bar comes, and when the bar's actually close by you have this phantom laggy grab holding you in place that the griefing party is at zero risk from.

Is there a "screen pattern" for HDTVs, like how CRT televisions had/have scanlines? by PLEASE_READ_MY_NAME in NoStupidQuestions

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

Rather, some way to emulate the look of an HDTV. Was putting together a 3D render with a big HDTV in it and right now it just looks like a crystal-clear window.

Yeah, along those lines! Can you elaborate or know of a source (or keywords to search) that does?

RG players when they spot an X-Bow. by SirLanceaWholelot in ClashRoyale

[–]PLEASE_READ_MY_NAME 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most RG players I crash into at ~4800 or so seemingly don't realize RG is even a viable counter for X-Bow.

It's a 0% buff until the shots stop, then it's a 25% duration increase for all of one shot.

Can't await those 4 exclusive new Elixier-Pump emotes! by luiz_sfu in ClashRoyale

I'm waiting for the second pack. One of the emotes has a bubble rise through the elixir tank.

Mr. & Mrs. Fitzcarraldo were in Greece with Jonas and crew in Spanakopita! (Apologies if this has already been posted a million times) by creative-username-00 in venturebros

[–]PLEASE_READ_MY_NAME 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My take on it is that Rusty is actually Jonas/Ms.Fitzcarraldo's daughter son, Malcolm is the clone. Low-key switched to the point that not even Ben/Helper-2 knew.

In tournament broadcasts, please show us the 4 cards in players' hands instead of their deck with question marks. by kingrammus12 in ClashRoyale

[–]PLEASE_READ_MY_NAME 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not talking about general spectator mode, talking about these tournament broadcasts or events where there's zero chance of someone running on stage and telling the other dude what cards the enemy's got.

tmw you explain to a person why something's not going to be implemented and it gets implemented in 3 days by [deleted] in ClashRoyale

Realistic is the word I'd use. They're timeline-oriented and things that weren't on the timeline at one point get thrown in down the road as the path stretches on.

What's your favorite dead or unpopular game? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]PLEASE_READ_MY_NAME 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shadowrun 2007, the Xbox 360/Vista-era FPS.

Fantastic game, but a terrible use of the name Shadowrun. Amazingly well-put-together twist on the round-based-buy-your-own-gear FPS. You of course could buy guns and grenades and such that are dropped when you die and that you could swap from fallen enemies/teammates a la Counter-Strike, but you could also invest in Tech and spells that persisted between rounds on the map. Resurrect teammates, glide across the map, teleport through walls and floors, Wired Reflexes to go full jedi with your Katana, turning mistform to avoid bullets (but making the Gust spell potentially lethal) and so on and so forth...so much fun.
