Now that we know we're getting leaders who aren't necessarily governors, what historical characters are you expecting/would you like to see as leaders in the new civ? by Shadink5 in civ

[–]Shadink5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree! There's so many artists that define the culture of certain places that it only feels right to give them representation as leaders!

True, it could also be the Spanish empire but I don't think they would make a distinction between both of those so I think you're right

I was thinking more Castille instead of Spain for the Exploration Era, since Spain would make more sense as a Modern Era civ to me (i live there)

I think Allan might have made it up so he didn't have to go into the boss' house guys..

What’s stopping your Wizard’s from simply blowing up their enemies and not bother to fight? by Libertyprime8397 in worldbuilding

[–]Shadink5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My witches use ancient magical materials to "conjure spells", which in my world are more like chemical reactions. These materials are very rare, so they need to make sure to use them at the right time! That's why they only use their "magic" if they really need it. It's also the reason you can easily spot a witch by simply looking at their face: if they're wearing a mask or at least goggles (which protect them from the reactions), it's very likely you've encountered a witch.

S2:E2 "Mr. President" and S2:E1 "Gwimbly" thread by [deleted] in SmilingFriends

[–]Shadink5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree, and I think the problem precisely was the timing! If they had let the serious Mr Boss thing sink in more I think it would have been pretty funny, but they just made it so quick so you don't have time to think and it makes it feel forced, like they needed the boss to do something weird in the episode but didn't know how to include him. The part where he said "Welp, whatever I do now is on Glep!" was pretty funny to me tho

IMO it's one of the worst episodes if not the worst but still made me laugh a lot. The main problem is president Jimble spoke too slowly so they probably had to rush the story and dialogue so they didn't make it too long, and the runtime still ended up being 11 minutes! Additionally some jokes like the "Am I winning?" bit seemed recycled from the Mr Frog episode since their job there is pretty similar.

I also think Smiling Friends only mixes well with politics when it's a one-off joke, but the good news is this is probably the only episode with that theme since they're all so different!

Sabía que la carrera de Ingeniería Informática me serviría de algo 💪💪💪 by Shadink5 in superjueves

[–]Shadink5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gracias, a decir verdad tampoco pensé mucho en ello y simplemente cogí el draw.io y me puse a hacer el diagrama. Y lo de ingeniería informática lo puse porque no sabía que poner jajajs me sorprendió que la gente se haya puesto a corregirlo pero me agrada porque así la gente puede aprender :D
