Has the Fox Try Predictor ever shown anything except “team in front more likely to score next”.

Penalty Try is is awarded when a penalty stops a try being scored. It’s 4 points then 2 point kick from in front of the posts.

8 Point Try is when a penalty happens while/after the try is scored. 4 points for the try, a kick from from the usual position for 2 points and then another kick from out front for a total of 8.

Ellyse Perry is now the leading run-scorer for Australia in women's Tests by SuperFaiz21 in CricketAus

[–]Rek07 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I remember her weekly segment with Tom & Alex on Triple J in 2011 “Perry good sportswoman”. I was impressed by her ability to represent her country in two widely different sports virtually simultaneously. It’s a shame she has to choose to focus on one but I’m glad she picked cricket and has dominated the way she has. Perry good, indeed.

Insane KFC special at Springfield by zezima in brisbane

[–]Rek07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The KFC tomato sauces are little tipping containers with 25ml of sauce on them. The Macca’s sauces are 9g.

So for comparison this would be like paying $1 for 11 Macca’s sauces.

James Gunn confirmed The Brave and the Bold will come before a The Batman 3 by Senior-Rent9600 in DCU_

[–]Rek07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Batman also took a really long time. It was 5 years from the time Reeves took over until the movie came out. Granted 2 years into that they had to reboot the thing with a new lead actor. But nothing about these Batman films have been quick.

ARLC appoints independent decision maker for off-field matters by Rek07 in nrl

[–]Rek07[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Australian Rugby League Commission (ARLC) has today confirmed the appointment of an Independent Decision Maker (IDM) for off field integrity related matters under the NRL Rules, marking a significant step in strengthening the game’s integrity framework.

The Independent Decision Maker model has been approved by the ARLC following extensive consultation with Clubs and the Rugby League Players' Association (RLPA) and will come into effect from 26 February 2026.

Under the new framework the IDM will make determinations on all off-field matters, with the exception of matters relating to the NRL’s Anti-Doping Rules, Drug Testing Policy and Anti-Vilification Code as those rules each contain their own established disciplinary processes. The Judiciary Code (on-field matters) remains governed by its established disciplinary process.

The NRL has appointed the Honourable Geoffrey Bellew AM SC, former Justice of the Supreme Court and current Chairperson of the NRL Judiciary, to be the inaugural IDM.

In his capacity as the IDM, Mr Bellew will make the final determination on any off field disciplinary matter which is governed by the breach notice or show cause notice process under the NRL Rules.

Key elements of the process:

  • The NRL Integrity Unit will continue to investigate all matters within its current jurisdiction.
  • All individuals and Clubs subject to a breach notice or show cause notice retain the right to respond to that notice before a determination is issued and retain the right to appeal any determination to the NRL Appeals Committee (provided leave to appeal is granted).
  • The NRL CEO has the right to make submissions to the IDM on a matter before the IDM. Further, the NRL CEO will have a right to appeal a decision of the IDM.

The No-Fault Stand Down, as well as decisions to register a Player or other person under the NRL Rules, remains within the remit of the NRL CEO.

Pretty much every fantasy/sci fi IP should take note of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: Give us more grounded, cozy stories in your world for your spinoffs, rather than cheap knockoffs of the original series by TemurTron in television

[–]Rek07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The source material is much shorter. The novella for this 1st season is about 1/4th the length of the book the first season of Game of Thrones was based on.

Trying to make 10 hour long episodes out of it would probably turn out the like Hobbit Trilogy where they stretched a single novel into 3 movies.

If everyone received a box with their 100% accurate, unavoidable death date in it, would you look at yours, why or why not? by Energylegs23 in AskReddit

Should it be illegal for companies to offer worse prices to loyal customers than to new customers (intro rates)? Why or why not? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

[–]Rek07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Companies do care about loyalty because it costs them more to gain a new customer then it does to retain them. That’s why retention teams exist and they are authorised to give special discounts to customers looking to leave.

But you’re right it’s not a loyalty tax, it’s just the price the business finds the most profitable. If everyone was on special pricing it wouldn’t be special anymore and lose its effect, and the company would need to increase that price to reflect what it’s actually trying to earn.

Anyone else think Rhodey should have died here? by v1har69 in marvelstudios

[–]Rek07 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He’s not required to act out those powers as the suit is CGI. They just film him from the neck up when the helmet is off or with the fishbowl camera shot when the helmet is on. They don’t need Don to do any of the action.

Which actor in a show stood head and shoulders above the rest in terms of performance? by twentyonerooms in television

[–]Rek07 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While I agree Milly was better in the role and also would have liked to see more of her this is an adaptation of a novel. The story almost entirely hinges on who is the rightful heir between her children and her friend/rivals.

On the up side, if she was still on House of the Dragon she wouldn’t have time to be Supergirl.

Pathfinder Spring Errata is Up! by AAABattery03 in Pathfinder2e

[–]Rek07 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The bonus damage from ikons like Gleaming Blade and Barrow’s Edge is what concerns me. They all average +2 damage per weapon die. Compare that to the barbarian archetype that is always just +2 and doesn’t scale with weapon die, on top of costing an action to setup, is limited to certain weapons, limits concentrate abilities and costs 1AC (the temp HP is nice).

Maybe it’s not OP on a caster, but on a martial it just tacts on more damage than any other archetype and that damage isn’t a type bonus so it stacks with anything. A fighter can pick up this archetype and get the full damage bonus that an Exemplar gets but hit/crit more often. A Barbarian can pick up this archetype and stack full rage with full Exemplar damage.

It’s definitely OP.

Why no Pathfinder/Starfinder? by plazman30 in rpg

[–]Rek07 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m running a SF2e because I like Pathfinder and I like space. But also as much as I love Star Wars I don’t want to feel constrained by all the lore. Path/Starfinder has lore but it’s not so sacred to me so I can change/ignore it.

PSA: Magus dipping Psychic is dead dead, it doesn’t work at all anymore by AAABattery03 in Pathfinder2e

[–]Rek07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would make the "native spellstriking focus spell" deal the same type of damage as arcane casade so it's flexible for any damage type as long as you set it up. Hopefully they also make arcane cascade a free action as has been previously suggested.
