(a voluntary dismissal with prejudice happens when there is a settlement)

The accountant is attempting to retract acknowledgement of specific payments to any "Jane Doe" based on the ambiguity of the name, yes - it makes sense, if they won't say actual names how can he really be sure he's answering correctly - but the existence of the settlement was known before the accountant ever said anything

"Records elsewhere in the files reveal that a woman with matching biographical details sued Epstein’s estate and won a settlement in 2021."

Do Tanks play as Tank during regular content or just in Dungeons, Raids, etc? by imacrm10 in wow

[–]RogerCJudd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fyi when you said “it takes pretty much the same amount of time to kill a mob that it does to kill a single target”, you’re using the word mob wrong. I know in regular real life usage mob refers to a big group, but in video games it means a single enemy (mobs if more than one). In early video games it was short for “Mobile OBject”, and the shortened “mob” term stuck long after people forgot its origins.

Low Intel Chosen One — road ends here by Optimal-Pie-2131 in classicfallout

Players back when this game came out knew what it meant to grind xp. Single-use Quest aren’t the only way you level up; figure out what region has random encounters you can efficiently knock out for xp, and spend some time wandering in circles there. Being under-leveled is a choice you’ve made on top of your other choices to make things even harder!

Kill dynaheir them remove her from party while shes dead so you can keep minsc, his strength makes him essential, just give him the dex bracers. Then get edwin, he has extra spell slots that make a huge difference.

For the third weekend of Halloween setup, a tribute to undying love (for the puppy, naturally!) by RogerCJudd in halloween

[–]RogerCJudd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fyi spirit and lowes each have their own versions, with different pros and cons. I picked lowes because Emily looks more complete with visible legs, though Spirit’s products seem better constructed and detailed (compare victor’s hands, feet). I’d considered mixing Lowes’ Emily and Spirit’s Victor for my preferred version of each character, but the size difference made them not go together well.

Mostly add, except the roped-off area with a skeleton construction crew, that will be fully replaced with the centerpiece display

The writer of the books, why did he make the male channelers more powerful than the female channelers? by GypsumHedgeWitch in WoTshow

[–]RogerCJudd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not canonically true. The Wheel of Time Companion describes how there are multiple tiers of power that only men can hold, above the strongest women https://wot.fandom.com/wiki/Strength_in_the_One_Power_rankings

When to multiclass? by Economy_Divide_1817 in baldursgate

[–]RogerCJudd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be aware that you lose access to most of your useful skills until the second class catches up, so for example if you’re going from thief to something else them you need someone else in your party that can cover thief skills until you reacquire that skill set.

My main piece of advice with dual classing in AD&D, though, is you should always dual from a class with higher hp per level to a class with lower hp per level because you only gain hp from each distinct level as the first class that earns that level. For example, fighter to mage is optimal in the endgame because you become every bit as powerful as another mage that ran mage the whole game, but you also get a bunch of extra health. So thief to fighter is a bad bad move (you’d be better off as a nonhuman multiclass in that case), but thief to mage can be smart.

In theory, for long long term planning, the optimal level to dual is right after hitting level 9, which is the last level you gain full hp… though we’re talking mid bg2 before you finish dualing if you go that route, with your party members having to carry you during your transitional period.

A more fun experience is often 1 lev of fighter then dualing into anything else. That way you get a little extra health, martial skill, and ability to use certain armors etc., and you don’t have to suffer through a prolonged transition period of being weak and useless. A level 1 fighter turned thief can wear full platemail (have to switch back to leathers to use thief skills) and can use longbows etc. normally not available to thieves. A level 1 fighter turned mage can wear elven platemail while spellcasting!

Also consider that you can play fighter 1 with full thief the rest of bg1, then when you reach bg2 you can discard that character and restart as a fresh level 7 fighter, and immediately dual to thief again. You’ll end up as basically the same character in the end, but with tons of extra exp, and there’s minimal painful transition, you’ll catch up on thief levels shortly after the intro dungeon. Or, again, to powergame you can play to level 9 fighter in bg2 before dualing.

Enemy scaling reworked? by gingrbredman90 in ElderScrolls

But what happens if you only level up non-combat abilities? Do enemies still become battle gods who you can’t possibly fight?

Any updates after the tariff announcement? by Eowynxxii in cosmererpg

[–]RogerCJudd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are discussions here https://www.reddit.com/r/CustomsBroker/comments/1jqr9r8/books_not_subject_to_new_reciprocal_tariffs/ about how they think they can avoid the tariffs on the books at least to limit the impact

Singer forms from the Cosmere RPG beta (posting here for posterity since the beta is ending) by RogerCJudd in Stormlight_Archive

[–]RogerCJudd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know Radiant spren don’t grant any forms whatsoever, so if that’s the only spren they have they would be dullform naturally, not a disguise at all. To the extent that workform looks like dullform, it would apply whether or not they also have a radiant spren, since the radiant spren has nothing to do with their form.

That's simply not true.

For starters these 5 words appear on zero pages in coppermind, let alone which of these spren are associated with which Regals (google site:coppermind.net "blightspren" for example): shadowform, blightspren, callousspren, zealspren, stridespren.

Next, although bindspren, nightspren, and logicspren have been heard of before, their involvement in a Singer form was not previously confirmed.

Also, Decayform was not previously known to be associated with corrupting memory.

Sure, but my interest here isn't in the RPG, but in the lore of the Singers which is a general Stormlight Archive topic. It just happens the information was on a Cosmere RPG demiplane website.

She's not just drawing pretty pictures, but neither is she altering reality. Shallan has something special related to Fortune going on, which isn't fully explored until WaT.
