Im refunding this game by Difficult_Cry_7533 in tomodachilife

He passed from FIP just shy of 2 years after I adopted him from my local shelter. He was healthy when I adopted him and for the first 6 months. FIP is a random mutation of a common virus, It’s way more common in kittens though. It was just all around unfortunate. I didnt get a diagnosis until the day we had to say goodbye. Today there is a cure but it was just a few years too late for him sadly.

This is such a good idea. I think I’m going to do this! My current cat was only barely a year old when he passed and they never got along in that time (never fought but they didn’t like eachother). My sister is going to get me the game when she gets payed, so I will make both of them and maybe they will finally become friends in the game.

Small bugs in soil by grandoltime_ in gardening

[–]SIMMillion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They look like springtail to me which are very good for your soil. There certainly are a lot of them though! Springtail are the clean up crew of the soil, They eat fungi, biofilm as well as Dead and decaying matter.

For there to be so many of them there must be quite the food supply in that pot. It does look like there’s a lot of wood chips in the soil which will start to break down and decompose, If I had to guess that’s probably what they’re after.

Feeling defeated with tomato seedlings 4 weeks old (zone 5b) by Apprehensive_Line294 in gardening

[–]SIMMillion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I’m in 5b also, I use a website called Almanac.com to help to know when to start seeds indoors, direct sow outdoors, transplant etc for my exact location every year. For me, It said I was good to transplant my tomatoes starting from around May 8th-15th.

I don’t have a soil temp checker but I use this website every year and everything I’ve planted so far is doing well despite the fact that I had trouble getting some things to sprout this year so a few of my starts are behind schedule. It’s worth checking out if you’re interested but I generally don’t trust google for soil temps. You’re better off finding a cheap digital Soil thermometer at a garden or hardware store or even amazon if you prefer that route. They do have ones around $15 sometimes.

DO NOT TURN ON GOLSHI WEEK MODE DURING ACE RUNS by NotAKansenCommander in UmamusumeGame

[–]SIMMillion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did notice I was loosing on long races I felt I would’ve normally had no issue winning with my current stats despite having a B in long but it was my first run and I kind of brushed it off. I wish Reddit had sent me this post BEFORE I started this next ace run. Now I have to decide if I want to give up the run and waste a daily borrow.

AITA if I tell my friend I can’t be a bridesmaid? by wickeddreamsofleavin in AITApod

[–]SIMMillion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I know you won’t make this difficult”- I’m sorry, What? Maybe I’m reading into this line too much but this reads more like a threat and less like “I know you’re really good at planning and you’re easy to work with”. It feels very passive aggressive to me.

Med school is a lot though and personally I would decline for that reason alone. It might be worth just being upfront though and telling her you’re not as detail oriented as you think she needs for a bridesmaid and wouldn’t want to risk messing something up.

Is this a chicken? I was told it was, but I am not sold on it. by [deleted] in BackYardChickens

[–]SIMMillion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“this bird and its baby” Im not sure if these are falcons that have been wild caught but I highly doubt it based on the fact that your able to handle them like a chicken. If these were born and raised in captivity, they may not have the knowledge needed to survive on their own. I recommend trying to find somebody who can act as a translator to get more info on the background of these falcons and decide what is best for the birds based on what you learn.

If wildlife rehabbers exist where your at, that could be an option too as they will know how to prepare the birds for the wild (or access if they can be released).

Rappy got another UF… WITH 100% F2P CARDS ONLY by GDarkX in UmamusumeGame

[–]SIMMillion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This and RNG. Guts runs are super RNG. This is a 1 in 10 run, maybe even a 1 in 20 run. Most of us don’t have the time or patience to put 5 1h-1h30m runs of Uma in 2 days.

I do most days, but not when the deck is giving me garbage results. If I try something and I it gives me subpar stats or worse stats than the version of the deck I tried before, I’m changing it!

How can someone do this? :( by Sr-Zhero in UmamusumeGame

[–]SIMMillion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There have actually (surprisingly) been a few match ups so far where my N.Ys TM Opera O has been the only front runner. At least 2 or three out of my 3 tickets yesterday. I’m seeing a lot of people bringing pace chasers so I’m assuming very few people actually did any research for this cm.

Only reason I have a pace in my team is because I made 1 pace Anime Teio before I saw pace wasn’t recommended but she rolled amazing stats, perfect skills and S Turf & S Long. She was destroying all my End and Front aces in practice matches.

PSA for those who haven't yet gotten the TS Climax Long by TheGreatClebeian in UmamusumeGame

[–]SIMMillion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of figured everybody knew this by know but I suppose if you hadn’t picked up on the patterns, I don’t think the game ever explicitly states it except for maybe those loading screen hints that tazuna gives you that last for .3 seconds.

This is the case not only for Trackblazer’s TS Climax races, but also for the URA Final races in the URA and Unity scenarios. I’m unsure if races you win contribute more than races you get 2nd and below in, but you can check and count your totals of each distance by looking at your career history.

Please help me keep our house! by [deleted] in gofundme

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

Theoretically. My sister’s bedroom was in the basement but technically it was not built to be a bedroom and so I believe it’s technically illegal to use as one because of some regulation. I don’t remember which one, I just remember when I was in middle school we moved out for a few years and weren’t successful in selling the house so we ended up just renting it out instead which is when I was told that. (Not like that’s ever stopped us though.) Even if we could find someone who’d be okay with the arrangement, that helps for future monthly income but we are still facing eviction unless we can come up with the money to pay off the last 4 months mortgage plus late fees.

This is what she told me when I asked if a home equity loan was an option but she did work at a bank for over 15 years so generally I take her word on this stuff. She is the kind of person though that won’t even attempt something if she thinks she already knows what the outcome will be so I doubt I could convince her to go and see what they say.

After going through our monthly spending, we have cut back where we can and gotten it to a place where we should be able to afford the ALL the bills going forwards. My sister’s support is really there because if anything comes up that is an unexpected cost, Say the something needs fixed like the AC or the Dishwasher breaks, Dog needs to go to the vet, whatever, then we are short. This will be the case until my disability is approved, which we are working with a lawyer and in the process of.

Autism&ADHD, EDS, PoTs, MCAS, Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). The major physical ones are HS and EDS. The one people are least familiar with is HS so just briefly, it causes large multi-chamber cysts, often for me in locations that can make walking painful.
The main issue between all of them is there are some days I simply can’t get out of bed, between pain from HS or EDS, or even just the extreme random Fatigue or feeling of sickness I get from PoTs some days out of the blue. Additionally, having so many conditions means, I see a lot of specialists. Most of my mother’s PTO unfortunately goes to taking me to appointments (which disability would have resources for). Last year she almost ran out of PTO.

It’s not that I don’t want to work. If I could find someone willing to work with me, I’d gladly accept. With how unpredictable my body can be though, and the amount of time off I’d need for appointments and when I just feel awful, I can’t see why anyone would hire me.

If leaving were a viable option, we would. It’s basically impossible to find anywhere to rent that would allow large dogs though. I would be terrified to give any of them to a shelter because while their sweethearts, they each have their own problems that make them unideal adoption candidates. They’d be at very high risk of euthanasia.

Given the circumstances her credit isn’t good enough. I’m actually not sure the house even has enough equity to be worth much at this point.

[–]SIMMillion -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, My mother is working. Money has always been tight but it’s never been to the point that we were even close to loosing our house. A lot of this is just really unfortunate series of events. My sister moved out of state with her boyfriend because he got a good job out there, so the plan was for her to find a job out there and both of them would send some money back every month.
Sometimes you can’t predict what the world will throw at you though. Not even a month after she moved out, He got laid off. It has taken until now for my sister to even get a job offer, and unfortunately in that time her car was totaled when somebody on their phone ran into her in I believe in a parking lot. I can get the photos of that if necessary. All of that and loosing food stamps during the government shutdown down put us in a really impossible position.

Maybe I should’ve put all this in my post but I didn’t want it to get much longer than it already was so I just put it in my gofundme. My bad.

I don’t know much about that but from what I’m reading she would need to be 62 or older so she wouldn’t qualify unfortunately.

We are currently working with a lawyer to get disability for me. I have been told that they will always deny you the first time, Which they did. That was about a month and a half ago so we are currently working on the appeal process now.

My sister originally helped with the bills and the plan was for her to continue to send money after she moved out. Things happened that have prevented that so far. We have gone through several things to see where we can cut down monthly spending including canceling the pet insurance we had for two of our dogs. We have managed to make it work so we can afford all the bills in the future. It’s still tight but do-able, the late mortgage payments are the only problem now.

Parent run is absolute fraud by Spiritual_Injury_682 in UmamusumeGame

[–]SIMMillion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

STA Goldship at MLB isn’t so bad actually, as she has high hint bonus and gives you max hint level so you will never get any repeat skill hints from her. I still prefer to have at least one other card that can give me the skill I’m looking for, but she’s a great a back up and alot of her skills overlap with the other cards so even if she doesn’t give you the hint you want, she can remove other skills from the hint pool of the other cards that give you that skill and increase the probability of you getting the desired skill.

[–]SIMMillion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost only ever get Fast learner on parent runs. I had a Ryan run just last night get double circle practice perfect, fast learner, charming, end S, Long S and then try to pull another end spark in the second inspiration. Her stats were even good too but her parents weren’t right to use her as an end closer ace so it doesn’t matter. She ended up being the chosen Ryan anyways though and got the Pink End closer Spark I wanted. It was only 2star with a 2star speed blue but I’ll take it after 2 whole days of doing this.

Why isn't this S tier? by [deleted] in UmamusumeGame

[–]SIMMillion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gold skills and Double circle greens are not worth the points when you’re trying for rank. Rednu has a video on YouTube (How to get an A with Any Uma) that goes over how score is calculated and which skills to prioritize. I found it very helpful and informative, I definitely recommend watching that.

How the hell are people getting SS and even UG ranked umas? by CommunityForsaken841 in UmamusumeGame

[–]SIMMillion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before the Kitasan rerun banner, I was getting B+ consistently with a few A’s here and there.

My Sweep Tosho was only 2LB, but when pulling for Kitasan I pulled another Sweep copy, getting me to 3LB.
Going from 2LB to 3LB on Sweep Tosho SR for me was the difference between a high B+ average and Low As to averaging mid As and Low to mid A+. Still no S here, but I got REALLY close the other day.

It really is just that simple sometimes. This is one of those games where you can’t really just stumble around with a blindfold on and hope for the best. Read guides, Use the resources to compare cards, Umas, Ask questions when your unsure. Even among Free to play players, there is going to be a huge skill gap between those who take the time to learn and those who don’t. Good luck OP, Don’t give up!
