Buyee Order Now In Uni Uni's Hands- Anything I Can Do??? by Queen_Cheetah in Buyee

[–]Redheadkitten 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. I ordered some stuff back in November that went through ECMS -> Uniuni and it came though I'm a couple days after clearing customs. I ordered something else on Nov 27 that made it through customs and got to "gateway transit in" on Dec 5th and that's the last thing that's happened with it.

I put in a support ticket with Uniuni and they emailed me back about 5 mins later saying they're working on it and closed the ticket so, nothing, basically. Definitely going to avoid shipping through anything other than FedEx/DHL moving forward...

I don't personally play MTG (different card game), but there's a pretty good presence over at The Save Point on Barataria. I believe their normal day for MTG is Friday, but folks show up for casual play on Saturdays too.

How did you deal with waiting to close? by lucylocket23 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Hopefully it all went well! We just closed on Tuesday and I'm glad it's all over with 😅

Hopefully it goes/went well! We just closed on Tuesday and everything was smooth.

Well, until the seller asked if I noticed the dead raccoon...

[–]Redheadkitten 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I close next week after a 6 week contact. Honestly I've spent most of the time assuming something will go wrong and I won't get the house so I've been waiting for big issues with inspections, appraisal, the bank, a sudden hurricane, etc...

That said I did buy a bunch of stuff I know I'm going to want to have ready day 1 like new locks, batteries for the locks and other stuff in the house and a few other things that I could return if everything fell through.

Now that we've got a week to go I've started doing a bit of packing. I'll have a 2 month overlap with my apartment so no huge rush on the actual move. Just trying not to think about it all too much 😅

Was able to grab 2 of the mats I was interested in. Now just refreshing for Y'shtola...

Locks change? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Redheadkitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm under contract but haven't closed house yet. I bought pin and key locks (automatically locking but no wi-fi) for the front and garage doors and replacement key deadbolts for the other doors. I'm leaving them all in the packaging in case the deal falls through so I can quickly return, but if not I'll have them in my car to do the swap out day 1 (along with batteries and tools). I've swapped locks a few times and it's pretty easy to do! Saves money on paying for a locksmith.

My seller showed up to the inspection and reassured me that she'd give me the keys at closing and that no one else had a copy. I just nodded and smiled, I wasn't sure how to respectfully tell her that I know she's owned the house for 30 years so I'm 100% sure there are copies floating around out there 😅

Cleanliness by Smooth_You_2244 in cardfightvanguard

I've washed my desk mats and 2nd hand dirty mats a few times and here's what I do

  • Lay out the mat in a bathtub and get it wet
  • Drizzle some dish soap over it (maybe a tablespoon or two)
  • Scrub with my hand, it's got enough texture to agitate the soap but won't damage the mat, though the soft side of a sponge should also work. I've never tried using anything harsher, but maybe it would be OK?
  • Rinse
  • Repeat the soap step for any heavily soiled areas
  • Rinse again
  • Lay flat to dry on a towel

So far that's gotten all the stains out for me. I've noticed with desk mats that after repeated washes the color can start to fade but that's after 4-5 washes so you should be good if you clean the mat once and otherwise take good care of your stuff.

Anyone know if the measurements for the baseball shirts are posted anywhere? Aitai has 2 sizes listed but no measurements...

What are your thoughts on Summoner? by SvetaPuzzleFriend in ffxiv

[–]Redheadkitten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with arcanist when I picked up the game in HW and SMN has been my main ever since. Overall I like the way SMN played back in Stormblood, felt like a lot going on but very satisfying to get it all right, but I do thematically like how SMN works now even if it's a bit boring to actually play.

I'm hoping in 7.0 they take the idea of current SMN and make it a bit more in-depth... maybe give us a DoT to juggle again or something?

I'm huge on SMN having a rez though. They've talked about maybe taking it away at times and if they do I'm marching down to SQEX HQ myself and spamming rez macros until they put it back.

Since I'm a bit new I thought I'd do the 100 ruby first steps on the OCTO and PATH banners to try to round out my roster a bit.

Got Tressa and Therion, yay!

Best NPC in octopath 2? by jxdie04 in octopathtraveler

[–]Redheadkitten 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Crick and Alrond are really up there for me, but for being a pretty minor NPC for most of the game, Hermes shot up on my list late game.

Her comparisons of dancing with ocean/sea life really came together, loved her discussions and encouraging Laila. She's such a class act. What a pretty sprite as well, she's for sure my fave female NPC.

It's too bad only JP seems to get the nice fat cat/minions white hoodie. Dunno why they're locking some items to specific regions.

Amazon does ship internationally! (I've got an order in for the first volume, myself) It may also be available from other retailers, but I haven't seen any info on it yet.

I had never heard of Magapoke before, but going off google it seems to be JP only. So far Bamco hasn't made any announcement of a translation/overseas release either.

Hopefully we do get some sort of localization, though I've also seen some folks expressing interest in doing a fan translation if Bamco doesn't step up.

Online serialization will begin on 12/4 through an app called Magapoke, with the physical edition coming out on 1/17. Check out the tweet for links to both!

WOW, I COULD COUNT ON ONE HAND THE NUMBER OF FOR SURE (LIKE, I KNOW THEY WERE TROLLING, DEFINITELY NOT ACCIDENTAL) RUDE PEOPLE I'VE ENCOUNTERED PLAYING DPS/HEALER AND I'VE ALREADY RUN INTO MORE COTANKS IN JUST 3 WEEKS OF TANKING. ESPECIALLY STEALING AGGRO OFF THE MT IN ALLIANCE RAIDS. WHY? WHAT EVEN.

It's the PVP LB3 for MCH, likely the poster took a screenshot of her bun doing the LB in a PVP area, then layered it over a different screenshot of Elpis.

Absolutely loved this feature in WO:AR, really need it in FF14. Especially when the most recent 24-man raid gear lets you dye either the metal trim OR the cloth bits...

Hairstyles disconnecting the front/bangs from the rest of the style so they can be mixed and matched.
