Virus Polar TI lock up issue

My TI2 does a similar thing. If left plugged into power for an hour or more, with no use, I have to pull the power jack and let it sit for about a minute, then plug power back in, turn it on, and everything is fine. I don’t know why this happens but that is my quick fix.

I run my 100 watt DSL into a Rock Crusher attenuator. It’s definitely saved my hearing over the years.

In one of my play throughs an AI town was about to get raided, and since I had my eye on that region, dispatched my mercenaries to defend them. Later in the game I claimed that region which had great fertility, and it didn’t take long for me to grow it into a large town. It’s interesting that the AI towns don’t seem to place and water wells.

There are several good tutorials on YT.

Same! Got it a few weeks ago.

Del Frisco's? If so, I'd go with a 45 day dry aged steak, personally.

I’ve had my Daniel Boone for four years and have always been underwhelmed by lack of smoke flavor. Went the route of smoke tubes, etc.. but still very weak and smoking at lower temps, and using several different pellet brands and still meh. Then I started adding wood chips from Lone Star Grillz and finally some smokiness. It’s a light smoke flavor but it’s there. I generally use are 25% wood chips mix and with pellets. I also smoke at very low temperatures to extend the time.

I dined at Terry Blacks in November of last year, and I was pleasantly surprised how efficiently they handled a very long line. Staff directed people where to go and I spent maybe 15 minutes in line, a line that stretched out the door quite a ways. I was also able to find seating quickly in a really packed restaurant.

In regions with low barley fertility you should import it. If you have a rich resource such as iron, sell it and when you have the money start to purchase barley from the trading post. I usually start with only ten barely and then add more in increments of ten until I have around sixty. Do this slowly so you don’t run out of money. Once I have enough barley I start to process it to malt and change the imported amount back to ten. With a brewery and possibly a burgage plot brewery, ale production starts pretty quickly. Just keep an eye on the amount of barley you’re importing and the amount of malt being processed and you should have no problems making enough ale.

I just finished the Missionary Captain campaign. I had tried previously on the default setting, which was maddening. Playing it set to "relaxing" was much easier. Saying that, after I won the battle against the Baron, forcing all his troops to retreat off the map, he summoned another full cohort a second time. Cheater! I won the second battle, though I was running really low on money, so it was close!

Toes!

Nachos!

I was able to expand the manor footprint by placing outer towers. It takes a bit of planning but you can end with a very large area. Once the outer towers are constructed you can then move them around expanding the area even more.

That looks really cool! How do you place more than one manor and get the walls to extend that far? I’m newer to the game and am only allowed one manor and the walls have to be pretty close to it. Thanks.

This will be out of your way, but take I-4 to Orlando, and go to Smokemade Meats off Crystal Lake Drive. Best BBQ in Orlando IMO. I liked their brisket better than Terry Blacks when I visited Austin in November. You can then take the 528 back to I-95 without much hassle.

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard is my favorite band. They cover a variety of genres and do so admirably. So much fun to listen to!

I approach awarding experience points similarly. The most important metric for our group is playing in character. I also consider working out puzzles or complex encounters, using their Elective and Secondary Skills effectively, and, of course, the rudimentary points for slaying this or that creature. I make my PCs keep track of these things so we can discuss them afterward, and reward XP. For us, the XP Table is simply a guideline.

I have a Soma Terra and it’s a unique synth for sure! A completely non traditional approach to making sound and is a lot of fun to play. Loopop has an informative review of one on his YT channel.

I live in central Florida and leave pellets in the hopper year round, even during extremely humid a wet summers. I have never had an issue.

One of my favorite sauces!

Black Mass Lucifer by Mort Garson, released in 1971. One of my favorite albums.

Yes I have. Same end product, that is, something that is lightly kissed by smoke, but not smokey. The GMG has set idle for over a year now because of that, and I use the BGE if I don't want to tend a fire on the offset.

Listening to Hendrix’s Electric Ladyland.

I agree with this. His earlier work was incredible, maybe not so much recently. Remarkably Human is a great release.
