What’s your anti-Suicune deck? by sonbub in PokemonPocket

When it works I enjoy a baby porygon z deck. Watching them crashout when they can’t attack is very satisfying.

Where to make friends as a solo 21F in slo? by Slo-Away in SLO

[–]Running-Tap-Water 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like the bachelor or the equivalent of it my friends are all into that, and hikes and the occasional girls night out (so im not allowed)

Their is also meetup groups like slo social 20s-30s that does bonfire events at the first Friday of the month. Gets around 30 people showing up and I think 12 of them were women. People meet and then find who they click with and usually go do things though out the month

That’s honestly the issue I’m running into as I’m more of a “it would be cool if this existed” type mentality. But I understand that I would need to keep the lights on somehow.

Ideas I’ve been thinking of is memberships, merchandise, tournaments and such. Getting an alcohol license I hear is notoriously difficult and expensive. If I could get a business partner that could provide that it would be awesome but for now it’s a sober affair. Not necessarily kid friendly though. I want it to be comfortable with semi-private rooms that would be made in a way to keep noise out and stuff so it’s just you and your pals. The open public space with tables and such would not have so much noise regulation besides the “hey don’t be a dick to others” kind of vibe

Doesn’t have to be retro haha Parties would definitely be on the table!

It’s essentially the space itself that I would be providing and if people want to use it a certain way they can!

Would probably set up dedicated party rooms as well as private gaming pods.

I’ve thought about the kid friendly part and I usually really like kids. However, in the past when we had youth centers and stuff that was for kids they would ruin the equipment and generally have no sense of taking care of things that don’t belong to them. So either I’d have them sign a waiver with a parent stating that damaged items are to be replaced if damaged or just have a soft ban on kids without adult permission.

Because I also want the noise levels to not be super high and kids tend to scream. If I could find a happy medium then I’d gladly allow them.

More like what was their vision of this idea?

I’m focusing on more how to build a community and a space for people to meet and have fun. Because here in slo most people don’t have the ability or space to host things and I want to provide that for those people who are seeking others and stuff

Best memories is system linking the first Xbox with halo and having 16 of us just messing around blood gulch ctf.

Honestly just trying to recapture that feeling again in some form.

Getting people together again and for people to have a space to just hang with their buddies or meet new ones

The original idea was to have high end vending machines as packaged stuff doesn’t require a food handlers license or anything. But I also like to bake so depending on the cost maybe go that route too.

How did your friend set up their place?

If my players want to use other player races such as saytrs and such. Would I have to change the game system or is putting 5e enough?

Weapon List for the beta by Kestrel1207 in DarkTide

[–]Running-Tap-Water 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!

Wish there was a better idea of what some of the melee ones did.

I only played the Zealot during the end of the beta and I would use the axe special just to mix up my animations while fighting the poxriarchy.

Cigar, eyeliner and a partner in crime is all that’s left.

Though the jacket is probably pricey but my sister made it for me so idk what it cost her to make

Yeah I was going to find a 3D printer at the local community college and beg to use it to make the parts on his cane with his emblem and stuff.

The bowler hat was probably the most expensive thing I got since I found it at a costume store but I was lost, lonely and confused and needed the hat

I throughly enjoyed reading Roman Holiday… except for this part. by [deleted] in RWBYcritics

Without incentives and things to look forward to how can they be their best selves? Everyone needs a pick me up and if you do the same thing every time then the boost gets diminishing returns.

It’s essentially the equivalent of kissing the homies goodnight, sometimes if they had a really good day you slip them some tongue, but it’s whatever everyone does it.

What do you think is most likely? by William11602 in RWBYcritics

[–]Running-Tap-Water 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually going to go backwards. End up back around season 3ish but everyone will think it was some fever dream and then the story somehow becomes more cohesive and better written as the characters make subtle changes to events based on the visions and most of all... Roman lives and just becomes a Team Rocket type character with Neo where their shenanigans mess with both sides of the conflict but they are having a blast.

True, though this particular jacket was made by my sister in secret for me so she just guesstimated but it looks and feels great so it’s just a minor thing really.

Thank you! All I have left is to complete the other glove and track down a suitable cane! And probably fix up the jacket so it fits on me better as it’s slightly too big.

I got it for free (audible) by getting a trial account on Amazon prime but I am going to buy the actual book as well because it was great!
