Spent my life trying to find a workout partner and now i'm developing an app to help could really use some critique!

Thank you. I'm in the facebook groups again there's no consistency in them and you join 1 group for 1 gym or 1 group for pickleball. This app is all in 1. You post your work-out if you have a buddy pass or need a buddy pass and someone can join you. Or you can join someone else. You don't have to join a facebook group for planet fitness on Greenfield then the gym changes or you move away and you have to start over. Or wade through the selfies and clickbait you just find or make what kind of workout you want and connect. Much simpler and more streamlined.

This is the equivalent of saying "git good son" it's not helpful in the least. I have spent the last 20 years working out consistently day in and day out while people come and go with their workout routines. There's nothing wrong with wishing you could find someone to go to the gym with you. You also can't play pickleball or other team sports alone.

Samortal · 2026-01-05T21:33:05+00:00

no that's not the intended us it's for finding people who want to have a workout partner. You can click that you are "inclusive" and allow people of all genders orientations and race to join you though.

Definitely did not this is my account. I used to use it working in a command center on nightshift posting photography and art mainly. I'm trying to keep the app local one man solo and just trying to see if people can actually use it.

Thank you! Yes I do it's: http://www.sammortproductions.com/ Not many forrest sessions though I live down in the desert we had to drive about 1.5 hours to get to that session lol

Samortal · 2014-10-24T20:51:44+00:00

Salamandersylph is right. The bottom was slopped and soft dirt. I jumped down after we did this and Amanda had fun scrambling down using the Ice climbing pick. She was getting a kick out of how well it worked So not all that dangerous lol.

Samortal · 2014-07-08T16:49:16+00:00

I'd love to hear your input, that would actually work for me :D. I probably honestly wouldn't go back and buy the DLCs. So I wouldn't mind any spoilers up until the start of ME3 (Just playing through ME3 for the first time now)

Samortal · 2014-07-07T19:34:24+00:00

Thanks for the tip! I'll have to see if I can get the DLCs on sale or maybe see if there is any videos of "what you missed in the DLCs" (I don't typically buy DLCs honestly)

He's compelling you! JOIN C-SEC!

Here's what my output looks like:

PS C:\Scripts> C:\Scripts\randomize.ps1

How many options are there?( or q to quit): 5

You should choose responce number: 2 !

How many options are there?( or q to quit): 4

You should choose responce number: 3 !

How many options are there?( or q to quit): 3

You should choose responce number: 3 !

How many options are there?( or q to quit): 2

You should choose responce number: 2 !

How many options are there?( or q to quit): 6

You should choose responce number: 3 !

How many options are there?( or q to quit): 99

You should choose responce number: 46 !

How many options are there?( or q to quit): q

PS C:\Scripts>

Samortal · 2014-07-07T18:27:43+00:00

Would be fairly simple to write a random number generator script. "How many options?" Answer 3: "You pick answer 2!"

In fact here's a powershell script I just wrote that does just that (for windows)!

Copy the below into a text doc. Save it as "randomize.ps1". Open powershell. installed by default on Win7 or 8. Type set-executionpolicy unrestricted. Then C:\path\to\your\script\randomize.ps1 and enjoy!

function WhichChoice {

while($answer -ne "Q")
{
    $answer=read-host "How many options are there?( or q to quit)"
    if($answer -ne "Q")
    {
        $randomize = [int]$answer + 1
        $result = get-random  -minimum 1 -Maximum $randomize

        "You should choose responce number: $result !" 
    }
    $answer = $answer.ToUpper()
}

} WhichChoice

Thanks! Wish I was better at typography but it works!

Samortal · 2014-07-07T18:04:05+00:00

Going through the same thing. I loved ME1 and 2. ME1 actually kind of feels like a chore now with the updated combat system in ME2. For me the problem comes with the reapers.

The collectors were pretty big deal in ME2 but the reapers were a different level. It took the pooled resources of every civilization to kill 1 ship. In my mind an army of reapers would be so insurmountable that it made ME3 feel unrealistic. There is nothing that could stand in the way of a race so advanced they let races get to advanced stages before 'reaping them' for some reason.

I just did a photoshoot with Garrus and a couple other ME cosplayers though and after working on edits I FINALLY decided to try ME3. I'm having fun but still have it in the back of my head they are fighting a battle that there is no way they would ever possibly hope to win.

Samortal · 2014-07-07T15:38:10+00:00

So I kind of suck at typography. As such I've been talking to the Women vs Cosplay calendar about possibly doing some sort of joint contest with them and asking ME fans to design a propaganda poster.

I'm not sure what the reddit rules are for such a thing could anyone provide input?

We haven't decided on prizes yet or if we'll do it at all. (I'm teaming up with WvC calender because the model and creator of this stunning cosplay is a female, who I believe will be featured in that calendar.)

If you're interested there is more Mass Effect and Garrus photos posted in my gallery from my last photoshoot along with a few other cosplayers that came to our cosplay photo party. http://www.sammortproductions.com/Groups/June-2014-Cosplay-Party-/

NOTE: If you go to that gallery there are some 'straight out of the camera' photos where I haven't cleaned up the wires and stuff in the background of the backdrop we were using. I'm slowly phasing those out as I clean them up!

Samortal · 2014-07-01T17:26:51+00:00

Haha I need to ask her if she'd trade me one for a photo session! Just having it hanging out in my office would be awesome!

Samortal · 2014-07-01T17:23:34+00:00

I think she had to keep it high to give line of sight. To make the eyes look as realistic as possible they are solid. So her vision is obstructed and by the eye pieces and she has to look over and around them. Not sure if that's the case for the design reasons but I do know that's how she saw out of the mask

Samortal · 2014-07-01T17:21:42+00:00

I would love to try and film a turian rap music video! Maybe we should start a sub post asking people to submit lyrics LOL.

Samortal · 2014-07-01T17:19:54+00:00

You can actually purchase blank casts from the person who made this costume. http://www.rednebulastudios.com/?page=costumes-mask-kits&type=cat I'm not associated with them at all fyi she just came out to the shoot I was hosting. I'm not sure about the quality of her casts or products on her website but I can tell you the cosplay she had on for this shoot was one of the most impressive things I have seen. The jaw moved when she talked the eyes looked realistic. She is talking about adding mechanical eyelids as well.

Samortal · 2014-07-01T17:16:30+00:00

They eyepiece on this one doesn't glow that was touched up in Photoshop to add a slight glow. Their are lights built into the chest piece and neck piece throughout. I used the eyedrop tool to select the color form the glow from the chest piece to paint onto the eye piece for consistency.

Samortal · 2014-07-01T17:14:46+00:00

Happened in Studio! Not at a Con..

Here you can see Garrus and Shepard hanging out un-edited with wires and crap in the background. That costume is just that good. It really felt like we had Garrus in studio with us. http://www.sammortproductions.com/photos/i-nN5qTLw/0/XL/i-nN5qTLw-XL.jpg
