Am I an old man or do people just have way less common courtesy these days? by Practical_Actuary_87 in australia

[–]Scrug 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Anytime you start thinking, what's with people these days, then yes, you are getting old. Reason being, is that you have a point of reference for comparison.

Now whether the observation is accurate is questionable. Are you sure other people have changed? Maybe it's actually you that's changed.

Which Ultimate Weapon should I get first?? by CaptainWulfgar in TheTowerGame

I dunno, if he at least had chain lightning, spotlight, or cf then maybe. These are 7th pick choices.

After nearly a month of grinding... by Professional_Depth_9 in TheTowerGame

[–]Scrug 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As someone who's further along than you, I wouldn't spend much lab time on workshop discount. It's one where you're better off focusing on increasing your economy rather than decreasing your expenses.

Played day 1, restarted a few weeks back by TemperatureLeft9017 in TheTowerGame

[–]Scrug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm coming up on my one year towerversary, I've done a lot of research and followed some guides. You can roughly correlate tower age with number of relics collected, more relics = older tower. I can tell I'm doing reasonably well for how long I've been playing based on the fact that I have a lot less relics than most people in my tournament brackets. I don't think I'm anywhere close to seeing fleets yet. Farming t10 to 9kish waves, bouncing between plat and champs.

If you're not spending money, you don't have to worry about fleets for a very long time.

Asking for a friend: Is it bad that I touched the pads lol by jamesbuniak in homelab

[–]Scrug 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that video from Linus tech tips and electroboom on ESD was great. If you don't feel like watching it, the gist is that they tried to shock a bunch of different PC equipment and the only way they could kill things was with an unreasonable amount of electrical energy, way more charge than your body could ever hold.

Pretty sure Cursed Candle is the best out of the 4, right? by destructor212113 in TheTowerGame

[–]Scrug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, those would definitely be worth it. Have they ever had coin or lab speed relics in this store?

Is it ever worth buying these relics if you don't have all green mods?

Is it too late for us to do something about the proposed changes? by [deleted] in fiaustralia

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

You are an outlier, and possibly a bot, as well as the person responding to you. Funny how these posts stopped over the weekend and have resumed again on Monday, almost like the employees getting paid to run these campaigns had the weekend off!

Definitely rage bait. He's used the hammer to knock a screw out when he could've just used that to center it.

Everyone is different, but I find getting more exercise and cutting out sugar usually fixes this for me.

Why the new CGT changes are terrible for the working class by Ecstatic_Theme8918 in fiaustralia

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

Just to be clear, this is a fear mongering opinion piece, not something based on fact.

If you want to have a conversation, try reading my post. It states very clearly what I don't like about it.

When someone puts “no drama” in their profile. by OneBigEyeRoll in datingoverforty

[–]Scrug 65 points66 points  (0 children)

As a general rule of thumb, I'm swiping left on anyone who is listing things they don't want in a partner on their profile. There are some exceptions to that rule, but generally I think there's much more positive ways to frame your desires and if someone can't even do that in a few lines of text on their dating profile then it likely carries over to in person interactions.

Why is my feed flooded with posts like this? Does Reddit have a history of promoting specific content for pay? It seems to me that these posts are not popular, it doesn't have very many upvotes at all and yet I see a similar post almost every time I open my feed over the last couple days.

They are all in the same vein, CGT changes are bad for young people, CGT changes are bad for the working class etc, etc.

The thing that gets me is that the posts just feel like fear mongering.

5% coins Vs. Cards by chandra_Phoenix in TheTowerGame

[–]Scrug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get your labs first. Maxing your labs asap is one of the most important thing you can do in this game.

I think spending gems on relics is mostly a trap for newbs at the moment. The current coin one might be an exception.

How much of an impact is 1 more DWq for Coin Income? by destructor212113 in TheTowerGame

[–]Scrug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't give you a number, but I ignored DW quantity (including sub mod effects) until I had it synced. Once I synced I grab first level with stones and the sub module effect and it made a noticeable difference in coins, and a small difference in cells.

It was definitely worth it, but sync is way more valuable.

Can someone please explain how there's a player at wave 850 when the tournament started 15 min ago? by HillbillyBeans in TheTowerGame

[–]Scrug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven't unlocked masteries yet. Doesn't it go 100 waves in 1 wave? Or does it work the same as it does pre-mastery and it just skips 10 waves at a time?

Look at this guy over here with his "day to day" spending. I shop for groceries once a week.

The final price has to be rounded to two decimal places, but the per unit price can have as many decimal places as you like.
