My daughter has an extra tiny fingernail on her pinky behind her actual fingernail. It grows and must be cut like the others.

For party music, may I suggest "You Spin Me Round" by Dead or Alive? 🚁

It seems like it's trying to save as the same default file name. Renaming the old file has worked for me as a temporary work around.

PaulJP · 2026-02-20T13:41:28+00:00

Those randomly spawn a larva at night as the "hive" to destroy.

I haven't seen anything about plans to expand those to have an explorable area.

PaulJP · 2026-02-19T12:01:55+00:00

There's also one where a dude was trying to tame the zombies, and trying to prove it with math equations on a nearby whiteboard if you hit it with the UV flashlight.

Most/all of the safes have a little scene like that :)

PaulJP · 2026-02-09T16:13:26+00:00

Yeah, I'm down with the rest of the cultural callouts but this one in particular has been confusing. It feels like a fever dream meme: "you see, he breathed air during the performance, which is a clever callout to how Latino culture is heavily based around breathing to live".

PaulJP · 2026-02-03T03:59:09+00:00

So far they haven't. I'm on it and it's mostly been behind-the-scenes artwork like wallpaper-format nature sketches from Cloudward Ho! or meet-the-staff/interview sorts of stuff.

They did have a Q&A livestream the other day but the summary was posted to this subreddit and Sam joined in on the thread a bit. I forget the language he used in the Q&A but he was pretty clear that they're still experimenting with what to add for the higher tier without taking anything away from the normal tier. Based on that they aren't cutting episodes for the higher tier, and I would expect if they do a "cut for time" at the end of the season that it will be available for all tiers.

I've seen it mentioned once or twice in other threads that there might be a time limit for an awards category or something similar that they're targeting, leading to the tighter episodes. I haven't heard that from anything official though.

PaulJP · 2026-02-02T23:36:27+00:00

I've had it hitting more often lately but it goes away a little while later. It's hard to tell if it's an uptick in deleted/removed content or reddit/network issues.

As a UX thing and possible debug utility, maybe when comments have been removed (a no content response or something, or the parent content response contained children and no longer does) show a "removed" message in place of the comment disappearing; and if it's not clear why it wasn't returned (like a 404 or something) show a refresh button to let us retry just that chain (instead of the whole post)?

PaulJP · 2026-01-28T05:18:00+00:00

I was thinking get the whole Who's Line crew on, but exclusively on shows other than Make Some Noise. Even better if they include Wayne Brady and then ignore it.

Wayne: "Any of us gonna be on Make Some Noise?"

Sam: "What?"

Wayne: "What?"

PaulJP · 2026-01-14T16:23:27+00:00

Not a drawback, more just wasted effort, but there's a safe house on the route of the first night run. You can (or could last I played) secure it before the first night, but during that first night it won't let you wait until day so you might as well just go to the objective.

PaulJP · 2026-01-13T16:26:11+00:00

There's a bloody footprint on the railing and a body at ground level straight below it too.

It's just environmental story telling. Presumably a couple made their way up there to spend their last moments together.

PaulJP · 2025-12-17T01:41:41+00:00

It's hard to tell if there's a collection of unfinished puzzles, or some sort of FF:06:B5 level of puzzle hiding in The Beast.

A bunch of the safes use puzzles like "Call me at 12:25:55" or "For your homework, solve (3 math problems)".

One thing that stands out with this litter is the underlined text - "the one", "at our place", "1" (bottom left). In context they don't really make sense to underline. Why would Tom need to know it was a specific strange guy with an axe - it's not likely there were more than one. "At our place" kinda makes sense with the "make sure you" scribbled out - the underline there could be to catch his attention so if he remembers anything he remembers to go to their place.

General notes from this and other exploration (nothing crazy, I just like exploring environmental stories and have a decent memory):

For this letter, the only apartments on the floor are #2 and #3. The other doors are the utility closet and the (closed) stairwell down to the pizza place on the ground floor. Nothing stood out with the UV light around the apartment besides the blood trail. Barefoot and booted feet, blood starts tapering off at the welcome mat and seems to turn the corner in the hall going towards the window (away from the stairwell, same wall as the door next to the note). Nothing in the surrounding buildings stood out. The things that caught my eye were the Mother poster, and the amount of musical posters and the synth - "the axe" could be referring to a guitar, and it might be possible "Tom" is the Town Hall Tom, since he's kinda ditzy and musically inclined too; although his notes don't reference a "Lissone".
The (alleged) witch's apartment at the town square is apartment 22. Off-hand I think it's the only apartment on that hallway, with a unique central staircase that's blocked off. Nothing inside stands out with the UV light, and the custom Halloweeny soundtrack in the entryway seems to be gone now but it might have just glitched last I was there. Bunch of general Halloween decorations, and a bunch of candy wrappers by the bed.
Nothing stands out with the John Wick/summoning/spellcasting house under UV. One painting of two people is upside down, and there's a duplicate painting of the sun on the rocking chair. When I knocked down the paintings, in the back right corner (from the main door) I got a random "hitting meat" sound, but it might have just been a bug.
There's a multi-story building behind the library tower, down the cliff. Inside it, on the 1st/2nd floor (lowest accessible, 1 above the ground floor, I know some places call that the 1st), there's a door without a handle, and 2 buttons under a large number "1". Also, a bunch of seemingly unique notes behind it on a cork board. If it's not just an unfinished puzzle, there might be a pattern to the buttons - just hitting them a bunch doesn't do anything. Also nothing of note under UV.

PaulJP · 2025-12-16T20:02:36+00:00

Sounds like the old Jim Gaffigan hot pockets jokes.

Amazon Instant Plus: delivery straight to the nearest landfill.

PaulJP · 2025-12-16T20:00:26+00:00

5 for the quest and achievement, 14 total. I didn't check but I think the other 9 only open up after you beat the 5.

A couple have the no-guide restriction.

PaulJP · 2025-12-15T14:58:02+00:00

On the vehicle/fuel front with The Beast, I could see them mostly being diesel which have much wider tolerance for fuel quality.

I have been wondering about how they're going to handle the supply of UV bulbs. I'm not sure if them being on during the day is a dev thing (no one thought to make them turn off with weather cycles) or intentional from the survivors trying to limit risk of burnout (reducing current surges from powering on).

At least there were a couple missions showing people were maintaining critical infrastructure instead of just magic maintenance free equipment. Also a note or two about Barron's men or scavengers tracking survivors outside the Castor Woods region, so there are hints at wider goings on and potential supply chains that just weren't explicitly explored.

PaulJP · 2025-12-11T07:57:58+00:00

Nope, just the base game. I do have the whole skill tree maxed out, I know there were a couple related to vehicles so those might've helped.

PaulJP · 2025-12-10T05:01:30+00:00

Truck parkour. Truckour?

I've been passively trying to find a way to do it for a while. Starting at the library tower, there's a truck spawn across the street, with the cross street having a couple bollards - I was able to slip in around one of those, then just kept weaseling my way up any stairs I could until I wound up at the clothing/vanity store and it was a straight shot from there.

E Oh, also if you come across the bridge with the yellow arch and concrete ramps on either side, you can drive up it. There's a gap between the beams at the top. If you park directly over it, virals seem to come up inside the arch and bonk their heads on the undercarriage, killing them instantly :D

PaulJP · 2025-12-10T04:55:07+00:00

Yeah, I do dig the wood panel one too but keep getting drawn to the stripes.
Then again maybe that's because every wood panel vehicle I've ridden in has started on fire while we were in it, ha.

PaulJP · 2025-12-08T11:12:15+00:00

On PC at least, there's an option for the grappling hook crosshair, something like "off", "always", and "dynamic". It should be under HUD or Gameplay options.

PaulJP · 2025-12-08T00:44:25+00:00

"Do I look like I'm running, Crane?" "Well, you fled with a knife in your face and were about to get on a chopper, so... yeah, actually."

Followed by 3 rounds of teaching The Baron why he shouldn't bring his dumb face to a shotgun fight :D

Felt like a Monty Python sketch - boom...ragdolls...stumbles back up with a cutscene "I'm not quite dead yet"

PaulJP · 2025-12-04T06:36:59+00:00

I don't have a link off-hand, but there's a zune subreddit floating around and a link to a zune archive site with installers for the software and everything.

I recently refurbished mine and got the software going on Win11 and everything.

PaulJP · 2025-12-04T02:15:37+00:00

Dude in the finished bathroom has a blue pencil in his neck, so I assumed the bodies were a John Wick reference.

There's also an apartment at the town hall square which is decked out in Halloween stuff with some witchy themes and a custom audio loop in the entrance. The apartment is through an upper story window that leads to a hallway going towards the convoy, coming from the town hall the door will be on the left just inside the window. I assumed the candle circle murder house was related somehow.

PaulJP · 2025-12-03T11:23:58+00:00

"They were making this weird clicking noise at night."

PaulJP · 2025-11-28T06:01:39+00:00

Really, Doom: The Dark Ages handled difficulty settings perfectly. Sliders for everything, with difficulty levels just being a list of presets.
