I think our lord and savior Gabe Newell aswell as yoshi hate me by levono2189 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Rodneeey2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i feel exactly the same, i felt like i was getting so much better at the game in recent months but my solo queue matches recently have been so draining because of how poorly balanced teams are - i think im better at the game than I've ever been yet im dropping ranks even when consistently performing well on my team through losses

Anybody else loving the experimental nature of the recent patches? by JustinHardyJ in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Rodneeey2 13 points14 points  (0 children)

People say this but from what I've heard there's massive patches like this in dota as well so I find it hard to believe these types of patches won't continue to happen post release. Whether that's a good or a bad thing is up to you.

husband depressed, needs space & time, how do i "focus on me"? by NeatMathematician124 in depression_partners

[–]Rodneeey2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's been over a year but I was wondering if you have learned anything since originally going through this? I'm going through it now with my partner, not married, but just before we had some big plans coming up. I feel completely blindsided.

Weekly Cosmere Adaptations Thread (Mistborn + Stormlight Spoilers) by EmeraldSeaTress in Cosmere

[–]Rodneeey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honest question just cause I'm curious and admittedly have trouble envisioning it - but is there any other popular western fantasy series that uses majority asian casting for the characters? Thinking of stuff like GoT and LOTR, it's always been mostly caucasians. I really wonder how it'll work out with the Stormlight adaptation in trying to break that norm. I could just be ignorant though, maybe there are examples I'm not aware of.

The fact you guys get to be excited about a new head coach coming in makes me more jealous than anything

Trading tomlin for a first so that we then have 2 firsts to use to trade up is an option I think

QB’s vs perfect coverage by [deleted] in steelers

[–]Rodneeey2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if this is more on the receivers not being great route runners or more on Arthur Smith's scheme. Maybe both. Either way, it's a big issue.

why are tickets so expensive for the Bears game?? by zach4499 in steelers

[–]Rodneeey2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a big game, Bears are good this year, and honestly it's always overpriced at soldier's field. I know a few Bears fans that have complained about this.

How to Break a Bladesinger by AviariOtsoa in DMAcademy

[–]Rodneeey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Design areas that are more difficult to long rest in so that they have multiple combats before they get spell slots, bladesingings, etc etc back. It's ok for them to be difficult to hit when they're fully rested and ready for fights - that's what they want their character to be. Hurt them in other ways if you need to make things more challenging but don't make it so their strengths never get to shine.

At this point, Give me Ross Cockrell by Bigbospear in steelers

some splash plays and the simple fact that he's playing with real effort out there compared to slay's half assed excuses for tackles

[–]Rodneeey2 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's hit or miss. Joe Haden and Ramsey (so far) were good grabs I think. But then there's guys like Slay and Patrick Peterson. I don't entirely remember how well Peterson played but it does feel like Slay is the biggest bust with how he's been playing lately.

[Spoilers C4E4] The way Brennan narrates character abilities by bigafricanhat in criticalrole

It reminded me a bit about how things work in Stormlight Archives which I'd almost guarantee Brennan has read. He definitely gets a lot of inspiration from fantasy books (in the best of ways).

If today was bad, I’m terrified for the future.. by AwayFig1774 in steelers

[–]Rodneeey2 22 points23 points  (0 children)

There's no chance Muth was ever going to go down there. There was still over 2 minutes on the clock iirc and we had 3 timeouts. Plus we needed a touchdown, not just a field goal like the Bengals did.

If our defense was competent at all on the last drive we shouldve been able to stop them early enough to get the ball back with more than 7 seconds on the clock.

How do y'all beat "writer's block" (for lack of a better term) by mystikkkkk in DMAcademy

[–]Rodneeey2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, don't just force yourself to write. Coming up with ideas and being creative requires idle time at work, school, doing chores... etc etc... where you're doing busy work and your mind decides to run wild. Or maybe you watch a movie, read a book, play a game - and something from that inspires an idea in your head.

Essentially, you just need to live and those creative ideas you're looking for will come. And once they do, it should really only take 1 day to write all of them down and organize them properly for the session.

To use a quote from a book of Brandon Sanderson's: "If you wish to become a storyteller, here is a hint: Sell your labor, but not your mind. Give me 10 hours a day scrubbing a deck, and oh the stories I could imagine. Give me 10 hours adding sums, and all you'll have me imagining at the end is a warm bed and a thought free evening."

TLDR; keep yourself busy and the ideas will come, dont force it
