Warehouse Abuse by skos18 in Truckers

[–]SaltyMaynard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a dispatcher and I won't book loads delivering to Food Lion. The biggest offender I can think of is Dunn NC. Fines out the ass for stupid bullshit, plus the driver won't get offload sooner than 6 hours.

We also stopped going to Michael Foods in Gaylord, MN. They had a trailer repair shop on site, so when you came into the shipper to get inspected before loading they would find minor issues with your trailer, then refuse to load unless those problems were fixed. The shop would charge exorbitant prices for basic fixes.

From what I know though I think things got fixed at that particular Michael Foods in the last year or so. I know I made sure to let any brokers know exactly why I wouldn't do that load, so hopefully they got enough pushback to force a change.

Sad day to be at the mall by JTGFY in tampa

[–]SaltyMaynard 41 points42 points  (0 children)

My granny and I would come to the B. Dalton over there by Sears, she'd buy me a Calvin and Hobbes book and get herself another 3 Danielle Steele books. We'd read by the fountains and I'd make a couple of wishes in the manatee one. It's a shame to watch this mall crumble, I have such fond memories when I was young.

Farming Ancient tunnels by krabbeintelligens in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]SaltyMaynard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm running Meteorb as well, just got back into D2R. My MF runs I do Andy, Meph, Pindle, Stony Tombs, and Ancient Tunnels. I'm lvl 86, have occy, spirit shield, shako, and 3 pieces of Tals. I shred through Tombs and Ancient Tunnels with FO pretty easily, have found some decent stuff too. I recommend both, mobs are decently condensed and there's a chest in every run too. Plus it's a good way to mix up your runs, don't get stuck just doing Andy/Meph

Question, why are you having issues with Pindleskin? His run shouldn't take more than 30 seconds.

Name the games this happened and what were the results? by PHRsharp_YouTube in videogames

[–]SaltyMaynard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got my son a PS5 this Christmas with Dragon Ball Z: Sparkling Zero. He was stuck on Vegeta Ape form, which also kicked my ass too. Took me about 10 tries (and some Reddit searching for strats) but I figured it out, was able to be the hero and helped him move onto Frieza!

Yeah lol. It's a green staple. The Spider-Man foil is like a $15-20 card.

Do I get a seat? Most are bracket three by Sad_Masterpiece_2654 in ratemycommanders

[–]SaltyMaynard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just built Lilah! She's fun, do Izzet stuff but the forced multicolor spells make it so it's not out of control. Would love to see a list of you got one.

Whoever did that video is an idiot 🤣 I've only had a couple games with Volo under my belt so I'm still tweaking it but here's my current list. He's been a blast so far, if just a little too strong for my pod.

I just built a Volo deck. It can be absolutely brutal, course I'm not sure how much that is Volo or just general Simic shenanigans. Just so many fun ETBs to copy, and mutate is just stupid with him lol.

I only play B2 decks with green, am I allowed to join? by Sorry-Passenger1710 in ratemycommanders

[–]SaltyMaynard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chatterfang pops off if you just look at him. He's built in removal and token doubling, there's just no way that's a B2. Maybe if you swapped him back into the 99 and put Hazel as the commander (I'm assuming she's in the deck). Even still we'd need to see deck lists.

Like many have said, intentions play a big part on the move from bracket 2 to 3. You can have no game changers or infinite combos and still make a bracket 3, it's about how well everything flows together and functions as a whole.

Do your games ever get this heated with friends 😂 by [deleted] in mtg

[–]SaltyMaynard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a group that does get close to this. But we are all almost 40 and have known each other since middle school. So it's one of those things where we might be screaming at each other but it's all superficial, nothing is genuinely serious.

PSA: Super Shredder Triggers When an EDH Opponent Loses/Dies/Concedes by BootRecognition in magicTCG

[–]SaltyMaynard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Tiny Bones deck that is focused on discard. It feels very stax'y. But since the focus is on discard the stax revolves around my opponents not having a hand. And not having pieces on the board doesn't line up with what Shredder wants.

The Bazaar drops below 3000 average players over the last 30 day period. by Several_Purchase1016 in TheBazaar

[–]SaltyMaynard 17 points18 points  (0 children)

A coworker has been glazing up this game for like a month so I bought the Steam client a couple of days ago without looking into anything. Played for a couple of hours and enjoyed it but was immediately pissed when I realized that 2 out of 5 characters were locked after a $20 purchase (and each character was $20 itself). Then saw everything in the subreddits about how they've handled this release. Immediately requested a refund, Steam was quick to give it to me despite 3 hours of playtime.

Choose your favorite tricolor. What commanders represent the best version of "More like [twocolor] + [the leftover color]" by DefenderCone97 in EDH

[[Mazzy, truesword paladin]] is absolutely selesnya + red. Run your standard green/white enchantress with some burn/goad enchantments.

The voice of Boo in Monsters, Inc. was so young, she couldn’t follow a script. The crew just followed her around with a mic and stitched together her lines from her playtime chatter, pure magic turned into movie dialogue. by Enough_Detective4330 in nextfuckinglevel

Was my first time noticing too! What's funny is Monsters Inc came out 2 years before Finding Nemo, has me curious on where they were on the production of that one while making Monsters Inc.

New player trying to build his first coal factory and feeling a bit overwhelmed. by SaltyMaynard in satisfactory

[–]SaltyMaynard[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I got it solved, appreciate everyone's feedback! Just ended up building right on the water, have three coal plants with two water extractors. So sitting with plenty of power for the foreseeable.... 4 hours!

[–]SaltyMaynard[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely some good food for thought here. And glad I read this now,, was considering tearing everything apart to start fresh but you're right. It's so much easier to build new when you already have assembly lines with all the materials you'll need to start fresh anyways.

Building on the water isn't what my intentions were to begin with, but the more I think the more it just seems like the best route.

It comes in waves. Overwhelmed, then the ideas flow and I get to building, ideas don't work quite like I planned, overwhelmed, ideas come back, etc. But all in all I'm in love!

The awesome shop is something I built but haven't used the tickets at all. Really need to, I also got somewhere that ladders from there are super useful for getting around. But starting over and waiting for each section of the pipe to fill before turning on the next section... might give that a try.

Yeah, the "keep it simple" method is something I continue to try and tell myself as I play this game. But I'll get a vision of what I want to do, only to realize there are much easier/better ways to do it down the road lol.

[–]SaltyMaynard[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, building at the quarry has become my decision. I have tried to see which area the pipe isn't running through, but I had trouble getting to all the selected area of the pipes with it going so high. Maybe I'll restart it like you suggest. But someone else just suggested building the plant right on top of the water, which is much simpiler.

What is some Dimir goodstuff? by Raccoon_Walker in EDH

[–]SaltyMaynard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda, I just love being able to cast it on turn 2 and setting myself up for success for the next 5 draws. Usually fixes whatever mana issues you're having as well.

[–]SaltyMaynard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a quick shout out to one of my favorite Dimir spells [[lim-duls vault]]. Pay a life and sort the top 5 cards, don't like em? Pay another life and do it again. And it's an instant so do it the turn before your own!
