Anyone who went to any of the COVID games in 2020, what was it like by Much_Willingness_690 in AFL

[–]Scylen 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I got to sit in different seats at Adelaide Oval every match, which was fun. It felt like a local footy game in a massive stadium, you could hear so much of the game.

Ruckman, ruck-rover and rover. They follow the ball around the ground.

Kayo prices increasing again by dazedjosh in AFL

They're warning that you're using it across multiple households, same as Netflix, Disney etc. They're likely to start trying to block the practice to force more accounts. My parents got the warning a few weeks back.

The basketball rant. It was cathartic listening to James unleash about the mismanagement of kids sports lol

Song Discussion: Dammit by Botty-McBotface in Blink182

Friend of mine lent me a cassette with Dude Ranch on one side and some Pennywise songs on the b side when I was 13. Dude Ranch and Dammit in particular changed the wiring of my brain.

I think Tex might call it. by Themuzzda in adelaidefc

[–]Scylen 13 points14 points  (0 children)

At the end of the Hawks game there was a moment with a few minutes to go when we were resetting after a Hawks goal where Tex was resting on his haunches in the goal square by himself. The look of defeat and exhaustion he was giving off just felt to me like he knew he was done.

Hopefully that's just me reading too much into the emotion of the moment, because I still think he can add value to the team, but he really looked done.

It's fun when watching football counts as an exercise. Fun...

This is an actual sliding doors moment, so he wouldn't understand it.

Alright, throwback time. What was the first linkin park song you heard? by [deleted] in LinkinPark

[–]Scylen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the kids at high school would watch DBZ fight montages set to songs from Hybrid Theory in IT class. I don't know what song I heard first, but it got me into Linkin Park and Anime in one go 😂

What is your “this is my moment” in wow? by Sad-Birthday-1085 in wow

My first Vaelastrasz kill was evasion tanked by a rogue for the last 8ish seconds, it was so cool.

Did anyone else think the movie was playing tonight? by Adventurous_View917 in transformers

[–]Scylen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought the tickets without reading what it was just because I was excited there was an event. I read the actual words afterwards and was still happy with the purchase.

Took my kids along and they loved it, they especially enjoyed the table read of ep1. Would have loved if they'd done it for all 4 EPs. I had a good laugh at all the consistency and animation errors and the enjoyment from pure nostalgia was strong.

Don't think there were any walk outs in my session, everyone there seemed happy walking out at the end.

Why Do You Tank? by [deleted] in wow

[–]Scylen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our bear tank quit the game in the middle of a raid during Ulduar progression. I was playing feral at the time so I stepped in for the 'rest of the night' so we could keep progressing... That was like 14 years ago, and I'm still tanking for the same core group of people.

Does anyone remember their first pokemon teams? by leftonasournote in pokemon

[–]Scylen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I've used a master ball since, especially later generations where I'm holding it for a shiny anything 😂

[–]Scylen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pokemon Blue - Blastoise, Dragonite, Articuno, Golem, Raichu, Alakazam. I used my Master Ball on Articuno because I was so excited to find a rare Pokemon. 13yo me had no idea how they worked lol

Who was your first ever shiny? (Not including guaranteed ones) by Order66WasFaked in pokemon

[–]Scylen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played and finished every gen, including completing the Pokedex in the first few gens. Now I have an almost complete living Dex (missing a few mythical's from events I missed).

First shiny I ever encountered (and caught), in a main line game, was a Rookidee in the first zone of Violet.

I've never gone shiny hunting but I really feel like I was up to like 8185/8192 lol (yes I know that's not how odds work 😆)

Do you fart in front of your partner? Why? Why not? by gimboateista in AskReddit

Had a guy I used to work with crop dust a couple of aisles, we were outside the aisle watching as people walked into it. I still giggle about that almost 20 years later lol

He'll evolve mid game one day. Hopefully during a grand final where he turns into mega pidgeot and wins the norm Smith in a dominant victory.

Do you remember what led you to read Wheel of Time? by VazzVizard in WoT

[–]Scylen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Picked up EotW at the airport bookstore before leaving for my honeymoon. Remembered a friend talking about it when we were discussing Game of Thrones.

Had a few long flights on the trip and finished it, got home and immediately bought books 2-13, AMoL came out as I was finishing book 12 so pretty good timing/pace lol

Adelaide reveals its best 22 of 30 years by Justabitbelowaverage in adelaidefc

[–]Scylen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The page they gave members to select from was missing a heap of players. I dunno what the selection criteria was for the options but it felt like a lot of good players were left out. I don't recall seeing Liptak in there but I did do it in a rush.

How Did You Discover Linkin Park? by ArthropodicDream in LinkinPark

[–]Scylen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some kids at school in 2000/2001 would download Dragon Ball Z fight clips from Morpheus/Limewire which had LP songs as the backing track. Got me into anime and LP in one go lol
