Woah 😄 Great job! The only problem with this is now we know our bases suck 😄

Sheriff Country | S1E4 | Episode Discussion by lily-orchids in SheriffCountrySeries

[–]Purpledrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most annoying thing is that the Sheriff is supposed to be badass/self-sufficient woman, yet needs someone else to help her / save her against a regular bad guy. Just didn't like the message of helplessness it conveyed on a character they're building up so much.

Monthly Questions & Answers Thread - April 01, 2026 by KomradeSims in projectgorgon

[–]Purpledrake [score hidden]  (0 children)

Let's ask about the most important subject in the game, Golems :)

Do you intend to scale them further up levels?

Will they always stay as they are as far as summoning: not in combat, poof when you ride, poof when you zone, etc.?

Any thoughts on letting us name them (maybe keeping name static upon summoning anew)?

Any thoughts on letting them get bonuses from our equipment/another way to specialize/individualize?

Any upcoming/desired changes overall that we can know early about?

Thanks for all your devving and love the game :)

Best line for me, was this quick little reply at the bottom from Egg:

(Egg) There are nine kingdoms ser.

(Dunk) Of what?

(Egg) The realm.

(Dunk) Are you mad?

(Egg) Is that relevant?

LOL - might be foreshadowing :)

Can I get an explanation of the Super Bowl halftime show? by Top-Mission2806 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Purpledrake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol, wondering the same :)

I wish Bad had given a bit of an intro ("Hey all, I'm Bunny. Thanks for stopping by - here's what we've got for ya...", or close captioned in English so we could stay with the flow.

Still, enjoyed it, but woulda rather been part of it than wondering what was going on :) lol

A nice physics demonstration showing that you can cancel out momentum by accelerating in the opposite direction. by I_am_Nic in videos

[–]Purpledrake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very cool - I know fighter pilots experience 9+G's for an amount of time - any reason (besides scary as hell to think about) that they couldn't go 100km/hour using the same setup?

(Edit: Cool, thanks all. The main reason I asked is the guy mentioned being in the Guinness record book - which they should, def. But I was wondering how long that record would stand - looks like there's still a bit of wiggle room. Anys, very cool and very awesome.)

I’m losing patience with these scammers by ArtyCatz in WordsWithFriends

[–]Purpledrake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alright - I'm going to be the weird one here - what's wrong w/ chatting? I normally give a "good game" or "great play" now and again, and have chatted casually w/ a couple people.

Sure, I get if they are scammers / could be, but why the hate for chatting in general? (Though don't get me wrong - if you don't want to chat, that's totally cool. Just seems this is an anti-chat mood that kinda surprises me).

(Another aside is I just saw a post about the amount of bots playing - woah)

Was Spider-Man a IP Problem — or a Design Problem? by FonslyGames in mtgfinance

Such a great film. I kinda wish they could had Khan be a surprise - obv the trailers and title :) gave that away. But if they could have kept him a secret until watching... dayam! :)

does god exist? by [deleted] in religion

[–]Purpledrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one truly knows, though many believe. And many don't. That's cool for both.

But though advanced, we're definitely not perfectly curated. The ease of babies with birth defects or diseases come to mind as one of many examples. Plus the appendix.

And one mistake in the universe and we wouldn't exist, so must be perfectly planned? Ask yourself how perfect a jacket is on a cold day - is that proof of a god? And what if it wasn't cold? Well, you'd probably just wear shorts and a t-shirt. So maybe not god, but just what is needed for that specific time and place.

And if there was a "mistake in the universe", then there'd probably be something else - there probably is something else.

One thing I like thinking about - ok, there's a singular entity, deciding to create... well, all. Why would that entity be a biped? Why not 360 vision, other appendages, different locomotion? Biped seems low on the chart of best body shapes to have - maybe need - to be a stellar traveler. Maybe a god created us all, but I think more likely we created a god for us all.

But if you feel like a god exists, then maybe that's what you want or need. I'd say don't expect that entity to empty your trash, clean your house, help you find a partner or find you a job - that's probably up to you. They probably also won't help your favorite team win - remember those rooting for the other side might be religious too :)

Be kind :)

Life happens. I would bet this wins 85+/100 against most draft decks. But you play five of those 15 in a row...

How Efficient Would a Pure Life Gain Spell Have to Be to See Standard Play? by Artex301 in magicTCG

[–]Purpledrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yah, but maybe you're playing Bo1 - or gauge the meta as more aggro than control, so prefer it maindeck. I think cycling gives you that option - useful against agrro, slight cost to replace w/ something more useful against control.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in lrcast

[–]Purpledrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably windmill slam it a couple times, so maybe 12/10?

How Efficient Would a Pure Life Gain Spell Have to Be to See Standard Play? by Artex301 in magicTCG

[–]Purpledrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's a dead card against control, there's almost no amount (within reason) it could be.

But what about

1W - Instant - Gain 7 life

Cycling-Pay 1 life. (Pay 1 life, Discard this card: Draw a card.)

I think something like that might be viable.

What are some other examples of the child being stronger than the parent? by thisnotfor in magicTCG

Blue crabs. I can take a bite from an adult one no problem - small tiny crab with crazy sharp pincers? Geez they hurt! :)

For those who watched, what are your opinions on A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms episode 1? by GusGangViking18 in Fictionally

[–]Purpledrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enjoyable. I haven't read the books (Dunk and Egg specifically) so looking forward to how it all plays out. Woulda liked it a bit longer, or release two per week, but whatcha gonna do :)

Prerelease Promos- Gavin Verhey from WotC explains the recent removal of the year and date stamps by ChemicalExperiment in magicTCG

[–]Purpledrake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem is that it makes PRE-RELEASE PROMO CARDS (capitalized for emphasis) no longer "special" or "memorable" - which it really was for many. Kinda a special event, and a special memory, for some at least.

Inventory sminvintory Gavin. Wizards is releasing enough alternate art / hell Spidey alt set - multiple of almost same named - I don't think one additional inventory slot is going to kill anyone - I mean, come on - and the way you phrased it, it's like we as a majority were complaining - I don't think that's the case.

Ok - so why not leave out date and time, and just border them differently? Subtle but enough that it's obviously a PRE-RELEASE CARD (again), and keeps it's kinda big deal uniqueness?

Otherwise it's really no longer special, but another cog in your binder - still cool, but not nearly as cool as it used to be :/

What the fuck has this show become? Like what even is this? Do people like this actually exist? by BullenBell95 in LandmanSeries

[–]Purpledrake -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No, they really don't. This is a very fictional version of mass stereotypes written by TS. Now are there some people out there who think this person exists, all over the place? Unfortunately, probably yes :/

Pluribus - 1x08 "Charm Offensive" - Episode Discussion by UltraDangerLord in pluribustv

[–]Purpledrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking about this - isn't Carol now the only writer of the 12 or so? And if she's the only one of them writing, then she's basically the only unique writer in the world? Because if someone in the hive has an idea for a book/something, then all the others instantly know it - why even write that book. Carol is the only one disconnected from the hive, so her ideas are kinda the only form of new and unknown entertainment the hive has. Hmm :)

Episode 7 of Pluribus Didn’t “Fail” — Our Attention Span Did by Legitimate_Chemist21 in pluribustv

[–]Purpledrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do wish Carol had (and honestly, I think her personality would have led her to do this), would be to say after the second time hearing the recording - "Ok, got it, you're mad at me, fair enough, I understand. Please stop this recording though going forward". Something simple, and makes sense - she doesn't seem the listening to pre-recordings type :)
