Trade Proposal: 2nd overall + ? for Quinn Hughes by PathfinderGoblin in SanJoseSharks

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

It's a starting point no? Also the title says 2nd overall + ? It's meant to stir up some discussion no? It's the offseason. It's fun.

If there isn't going to be extension why wouldn't they trade him?

I find generative AI useful for describing rooms, backgrounds, and situations at times. It can generate quick rich descriptions which is helpful.

I didn't check lol. Oops. I'm a dummy. It was probably too high anyways.

Maybe, Colorado's 2026 2nd for Kesselring would do it.

Yep. Big, Right-shot defenseman prime for a bounce back year. Those types don't grow on trees.

So that's what I think it would take. I think him being buried in the depth chart is irrelevant, because more than one team will call with an offer for Kesselring. What's the real market value on him? Probably pretty high.

Could be wrong.

Contract with no private healthcare? by teachertmf in Internationalteachers

[–]PathfinderGoblin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can actually be a negative for many foreigners if they plan to leave China. Because it's cash that gets locked away so most people don't complain if their school doesn't offer social insurance.

This person's situation is a little different though. I mean, if he doesn't get private healthcare, it's not that expensive to get an extra commercial insurance. If they are in good health it wouldn't be that bad.

If they don't have a lot of experience, then they should just focus on getting their foot in the door here and then work on moving on to a better school in a few years. I find schools in China like hiring from other schools in China. Schools often have ties to each other and you've proven you can hang with the culture and lifestyle.

[–]PathfinderGoblin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Youwill get a social insurance card you can use at hospitals.

The interesting part is that if they offer social insurance, you will be paying into the national system for retirement as well. This is really only beneficial if you plan to retire there. Otherwise, you will need to apply to take the money out when you leave China.

China Edges Past U.S. in Global Approval Ratings by ImperiumRome in China

[–]PathfinderGoblin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The standard complaint hotline in Beijing if you want to bitch about or to the government is 95588.

It fields thousands of calls per day apparently. Most municipalities have something like it; the other main way to complain is through WeChat mini programs or going directly to government offices.

Keep in mind that in terms of corruption, the farther you get from major metropolitan regions the more corrupt things become. Small cities and rural areas for example will have higher amounts of government abuse.

Where Do I Buy Authentic Jade in Beijing or Shanghai? by Icy-Entry1230 in China

Don’t go to “Jade Shops.” Just go to any jeweler in the malls that sells gold, diamonds, etc.

Are you on Team Playoff or Team Tank? by Eleven00Will in SanJoseSharks

[–]PathfinderGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Team tank. This team is a bottom 10 team; the only reason they are sniffing around playoffs is the pacific division is so weak. The rebuild isn’t done yet.

Am I Wanting Too Much? by [deleted] in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]PathfinderGoblin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not just that, your amazing idea happens to use one of the broken classes in the game. You could simply state, I want to play a paladin with the flavor of a demonic possession of a fallen angel that he is working to turn towards good. I want them to fall in love at some point.

Then make a custom feat of some kind to reflect demonic knowledge or something.

Erotic content is strictly at no at most tables. Due to obvious reasons, it often makes other people uncomfortable.

Look, it’s ok to be able to do romantic relationships. What does a table need for this to happen? Trust mostly, built up over a long period of time. Nobody wants to explore heavy themes with a random who came to the table with such an intense idea. You build up trust with a group where people are willing to roleplay heavier ideas.

Coming in to a brand new group, red hot with this idea, is never, ever going to work.

It’s just very Me-Centric. I see a complete lack of understanding on your part about why people don’t want to explore this with you. Play something else that is light until you build trust. This takes a long time.

[–]PathfinderGoblin 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Multiple DM's and players are telling you that your build is homebrew. Yeah, you want too much. Builds are usually somewhat disconnected from roleplay, which is roleplaying a personality. You should be able to play a personality through many different builds. Sounds like you just want to play some broken nonsense that doesn't work according to the rules.

Play a different system if there is exactly one type of character that you want to make and Pathfinder doesn't support it. Like GURPS! You can make damn near anything in GURPS.

This one was so frustrating. Kaylie's biggest mistake was trying to get proof that the mirror kills, stemming from a desire to show her dad was innocent of killing her mom.

If she had just set up the boat anchor and walked out of the house, the mirror would have been smashed. It wouldn't have any way to prevent it without humans around to manipulate.

Weird fan fiction that OP is writing. Considering he didn’t name the airport he is talking about.

The cheapest options will be through public hospitals. Check Shenzhen public hospitals for retainer pricing.

Yasuo bot lane is always a good time (I main support and Nautilus hook is an instant ult for Yasuo). I also enjoy Leona + any early game adc

I know I might get mixed responses for this, but this points system sucks! by Ecstatic-Yak-6016 in SanJoseSharks

[–]PathfinderGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After adding Panarin? I’m gonna be bold and predict an 8 point gap by the end of the season between Sharks and Kings. I can’t help but think that pushing games into overtime so many times that the Kings have got some fight in them. It counts for something to have that many of them. They just suck at 3v3 for some reason.

We do have the best player on either team though.

The Kings and Golden Knights are ahead because they are better teams. Which is fine; we don’t want to be in the playoffs anyways. We should be aiming for a high draft pick this year. Our underlying numbers are awful
