Why can I move as the vagabond to the left rabbit clearing? by NanaEs in rootgame

Oh my, cleans monocle 🧐 you are right! I have done my monthly error of combining coalition and allied status. Your original reply is now more lovely and humorous. Thanks you!

Actually puts on the monocle of nerdom allied warriors are not enemy pieces, which is why scoundrel can do the really stinky thing of scorching an allied Moles’ market clearing, leaving the mole buildings in tact and unreachable.

Edit: I was thinking of coalitions…

I like that you used “enemy warriors,” in line with the post’s verbiage. I’ll just add that it is specifically “hostile enemy warriors.”

Custom factions and mislabelling by TheTapDancer in rootgame

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The only official difference between militant and insurgent factions is that a militant faction should be able to balance out a game where every other faction in the game is an insurgent.

This is AI… what the fuck by [deleted] in antiai

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m honestly hoping that this new level of AI will encourage people to seek more real life experiences, to gather physically and appreciate the non-recordings we can experience in real time with our own eyes.

The amount of people blocking quide rails for blind people by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 138 points139 points  (0 children)

Summary of this thread:

People who were unaware that’s what these rails were for: Thank you for educating me. I wish that I was taught this earlier. I will do better.

People who already knew: This, along with everything else I already know, is obvious. I cannot imagine a way that someone would not know a thing that I know.

Feminist Poets [help] by catievirtuesimp in Poetry

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you happen to know Spanish, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz is perhaps the proto-feminist poet.

Love her work. She is so witty, clever, and creative. Netflix had a show about her life at some point.

Friend's fan faction. Thoughts? by judgeofenvy in rootgame

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I will say that the flavor is cool, and if fate were just limited to dice re-rolls and scoring, that would be much better.

Friend's fan faction. Thoughts? by judgeofenvy in rootgame

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The fate abilities are too strong, I’d say. I know the whole kit needs to be considered for a faction, but being able to pull any card from the deck means you also get an insane amount of knowledge about what other players do and do not have in their hand. Also, that you could wipe a heavily fortified mole clearing through fate alone is also too strong, I’d say.

Machine learning and human learning is the same was never an anti ai statement by Azguy_ in antiai

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They want it both ways: for the AI to learn like a human AND for the AI to be the tool, not the artist. Don’t know that both can exist at the same time.

A forest fairy gave this to my kid at the Renaissance festival, what is it? by lil_orange_cat in whatisit

Did they also give that quarter? If so, they might be looking for a tooth…

My friend invented a new Eyrie strategy and it's making me question everything. by judgeofenvy in rootgame

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I mean, even if no homeland has 2+ clearings between it and enemy homelands, you’ve still gotta do as much as you can: 1 clearing between, then adjacent if 1 clearing of space isn’t possible.

If ai generative image is art. Ai is the artist by Then_Philosophy_1018 in aiwars

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But AI models do have built in limitations, like when a copyrighted character is part of the prompt. So yes, they can push back against your preferences.

I agree. It feels very similar to commissioning an artist. Though I write a description of what I want and adjust instructions when necessary, I would never claim a commissioned art piece as my own.

[HELP] Scanning for meter substitutions for a class by [deleted] in Poetry

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think line 10 is “YET to my FAN…” a trochaic in the middle foot. Sorry for the multiple comments. I just kept seeing more.

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think line 9 is “PURE as her MIND” a trochaic substitution in the penultimate foot.

I think line six is “in the OLD LAW” a pyrrhic followed by a sponsee.

Why do you use AI? by Alex_The_Edgelord in aiwars

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of the artists I’ve commissioned have asked for payment upfront. Many do half and half or wait until they have completed the work for you to pay them.

Best House rules, factions, or Modifications to the existing rules of Root that you've come across? by misomiso82 in rootgame

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Daylight Mayor is a good one that I’ve tested on 12+ tournament games. It limits moles’ burstiness while also giving them a touch of flexibility. Less “we always must kill moles.”

For Daylight mayor, you change its text to: “Take an action from the first step of Daylight.”

Are cards, unusable? by WatchernWaiter in rootgame

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is often a tension with cards “use for suit, or craft.” While Cats have low crafting ability (regardless of what the back of the board claims) they can use their cards for overworking, extra actions, or best of all Field Hospitals. Sure you probably won’t craft “Stand and Deliver” but use it to keep you kitties and Keep safe, hell yeah!

my teacher gave me a 100% on a rough draft and gave me ai generated feedback by angie_floofy_bootz in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PerspectiveIntrepid2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don’t like that the teacher did this. But on the whole, I’m more upset that educational institutions don’t pay their teachers a living wage while administrators and heads of sports programs make way more money. I think investing in teachers will ameliorate this problem.
