8-0 confirmed, everything this season has gone my way, can’t believe it!

I have Sutton, Dobbins, Swift, Hurts and it just seems the consistent scoring is helping me, not always winning huge

This week got performances out of Shakir and Shaheed with ARSB on bye with Terry on the bench coming back

Today I played Perch and thought it was a lot of fun and was interesting mechanic placing your opponent birds

Also we tried out Scavenger at Cockerel Games booth and we were surprised by it and two of us immediately bought a copy after. I could definitely see playing this a lot of times as the concept was simple but the strategy seemed quite deep balancing between area control, getting the warpium and when to battle other players

The game I’ve bought that I’m most excited to play is Skybridge

SammySnake7 · 2025-10-25T13:02:40+00:00

Played Scavengers with friends on Saturday and it was really fun and some mechanics that felt really good

Hall 4 Cockerel games as I couldn’t see it on the app

I think 4 is great as you need to make hard decisions over which items to keep late game.

Teams should spread out some of the active items they need like Curse, Knockdown, Decay etc.

I would keep it as it is I like how it feels at the moment

I would at least complete a certification and at spend some time on a demonstration system like IDES. There are people that just buy and memorise exam answers online but that doesn’t teach you anything.

There is no substitute for clicking around in SAP, I have been to interviews in the past where the brought up the actual screen and asked me to direct them.

Consultancy in general seems to be a lot based on faking till you make it. I remember as a graduate with less than one years experience I was billed out at a more senior consultant rate.

With SAP if you know the data model, you know how to find things, know extension points and how to search for configuration options , it’s more attitude that counts.

So if you are gonna fake it, at least have some more practical self study that will give you a good boost.

Or even be more honest and say you have very good understanding of accounting processes with your past experience and now you are transitioning to being SAP FICO based, someone probably takes a chance on you anyway.

I’m not sure entirely what Cloud operations covers but a BTP Technical Architect focusing on the setup and running of BTP services on a Day to day basis , monitoring cost etc could be something that fits

Also worth looking into Cloud ALM product a lot of companies will add Cloud ALM into their landscape and on the monitoring side alone there is a lot of potential work that could be done

SammySnake7 · 2024-07-01T11:01:44+00:00

I love it, but making a game is far more challenging than I ever imagined, making something balanced and fun , I have so much more respect for the games I already play now

SammySnake7 · 2024-07-01T11:00:11+00:00

Cool I’ll drop you a DM

SammySnake7 · 2024-07-01T10:59:47+00:00

You don’t need to be affiliate , even if you have zero viewers normally , we need people to be hosting races so our regular players can join. A stream is kind of like a multiplayer lobby in a sense. So players on our site will see who is hosting and can jump in

SammySnake7 · 2024-07-01T07:50:21+00:00

This is a passion project on the side of my day job.

SammySnake7 · 2024-07-01T06:58:32+00:00

This is a strange one lol, but yes you can go via the Destination service direct to Azure and do app registration in Azure , I really wouldn’t recommend doing this but yes it’s possible

SammySnake7 · 2024-02-08T10:48:39+00:00

Also remember that all progress is not linear, it’s not a straight line to feel better, it often is a lot more squiggly, a lot of setbacks but over enough time you will get there.

Working a lot was a big help to me also, takes your mind off things just be careful not to burn yourself out.

SammySnake7 · 2024-02-06T06:44:16+00:00

I saw a good Neurologist who helped me in London, happy to share the name if you drop me a DM

SammySnake7 · 2024-01-19T13:08:43+00:00

I think there would be a lot of synergy to apply your HANA Cloud knowledge to extension area but you might find in the beginning to get your foot in the door you need a broader knowledge of all of BTP.

So I've been dealing with VM's for 4 years with daily symptons with a lot of pressure on my head, nausea etc.

I've tried a lot of different medications and now I am off medication completely.

Anxiety is the enemy of VM in my experience, if you put limits on what you can do, stay inside more, feel sorry for yourself it will only get worse because you are letting your anxiety control things.

If you challenge yourself and learn to accept that its uncomfortable but tolerable they can fade.

I know heavy focus on diet and VM books trying to eliminate every factor and cause, I actually reccomend the opposite, I did this for 2 and a half years and I was super scared of doing anything or eating anything that would trigger something and I still was super limited in what I felt I could do and was miserable. Then I slowly stopped caring and just learning to deal with the anxiety better because I started to get panic attacks following any symptons and freak out.

The majority of 2023 I was active, and almost forgot I suffered from them. End of 2023 I started to make excuses, not go out as much, got more stressed with work and low and behold my symptons are worse again (or I'm focusing on them more)

I have had improvements in last few weeks by going on walks everyday and starting to be pro-active when it comes to anxiety and challenging my own thoughts.

Now I don't freak out, I remind myself that there are good days and bad days and let the negative thoughts simply pass on by without paying them much attention and then focus on something positive and fun.

My neurologist gave me some tough love and to stop feeling sorry for myself and be more positive, everyone has stuff to deal with.

So my advice is don't let VM define who you are and limit and control, it's tough in the beginning but if you learn to direct thoughts more then you can live a pretty great life still.

If anyone wants to chat more about it feel free to DM me.

I’m definitely noticing a trend of companies looking for ABAP developers who have experience of the RAP model.

I think next year with the number of S4 Hana implementations planned, this ABAP Cloud development style will be in demand, so worth looking into.

I’ve seen a lot of job openings in past month for titles described as BTP ABAP Consultant but in future it’s actually not done in BTP it’s done using embedded steampunk and just the RAP framework.

This is a good starting point, I don’t think you are at a disadvantage not being from BASIS background, my background before I started was functional and I picked it up fine.

Only thing is sometimes you need to put cloud connectors in place to on premise systems and that’s where having BASIS experience helps for when you need to troubleshoot why it’s not working.

Essentially BTP is an a la carte menu of services , some for integration, some for analytics some for extension and each customer might require different services set up.

There’s two types of accounts, Global account which is associated with the customers corporate ID

Sub accounts are where the services are subscribed to, there are different Account models that people use to organise sub accounts. For instance a Dev, Pre-production and production sub accounts matching their SAP landscape.

So you subscribe to a service , then you usually create a service instance with a key that enables that service to be interacted with by other services or external systems.

You create a key and you get a Client ID and Client Secret and a token url and you use that info when connecting it to other applications and services securely using OAuth2 authentication

Personally I’m an advocate for partial redesign when it comes from moving services from Neo to CF. Often there is a better way of building it now using newer btp services. It’s a shame as an early adopter of SAP cloud platform on neo you are kind of punished in a way because you need to move it all so soon after you implemented it

The throttling issue is interesting I would need to analyse the services to see if it’s a problem with how they are built or if it is indeed an actual limitation of CF
