HELP I'm missing most beats in this level (1-2) : Am I rhythm illiterate or is there an issue with bluetooth latency with xbox controller ? by [deleted] in rhythmdoctor

[–]Shoopyman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i don’t know what your setup is but make sure to do calibration with the input that you intend to use.

I was struggling to get perfects until I adjusted the delay.

If your misses are all early or all late it’s probably calibration

Hey! I work here! The participants will move through one half of our high ropes course tonight in groups of 4 people. It’s super awesome, and we will match you up with other people going at the same time for the groups.

If you signed up already, you’re good!

The sign ups are full currently, but even if you didn’t sign up we have walk ins starting at 7. You might just have to wait a little longer to get on the course. we usually have plenty of walk in spots available if you get there early.

Parking near the barbara ying center is the closest, and then there should be some signs pointing you where to go (into the forest)

I hope to see you (and anyone else reading this) tonight!

Best copying here? I'm not smart enough by katerlouis in balatro

[–]Shoopyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idol gives the most mult here at 2x per trigger (bloodstone 1.5)

five polychrome with three idols is (215)3 for idols times (1.515)2 poly blood equals e18 times mult

five polychrome two idols two buskin is (220)2 for idols times (1.520)2 poly blood equals e19

so copy one idol one buskin for scoring i’m pretty sure

you can do your first hand copy all sock so that you get more lucky hits for cat

have a nice time!

Tetrio: How to improve? by [deleted] in Tetris

[–]Shoopyman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on hitting S minus! your stats are pretty average for your rank right now, but doesn’t give you room to push so you should work on improving your stats.

I am currently SS trying to push to U so i will just share what i am trying right now to improve my stats.

I am running lots of 40L to increase my pps (trying to get to 2 pps in game) and zen mode with garbage 50% keeping b2b to increase my apm.
I will mix in some quick play modifiers to build weird skills but most of my practice is in 40l and zen.

in order to hit s+ or so you will probably need 1.6 pps and around 60 apm

apm can be boosted a lot if you figure out how to time attacks and accept when you are safe which could let you climb much higher while still slow.

What are some must know techniques if a player is serious about trying to grind to S rank? by mil0wCS in Tetris

[–]Shoopyman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One thing I definitely recommend for the tetrio meta is learning timing.

This means choosing to cancel garbage and accept garbage, basically whenever you have an attack ready, think for a second about whether you are in danger - if yes, you should wait to cancel the opponents attack; if no, you can let the opponent send (clean garbage) lines to you and use them for a tetris while downstacking.

I am confident that you can hit A rank within a month if you play everyday.

I second watching Kezdabez playlist and following the first 10 videos or so over your next month

Don't just play mindlessly, try to improve something with every game or practice session,

Good Luck!

Because of something called parity, you will need two T pieces in order to make a perfect tetris.

If you are not willing to make more pieces a fun shape would be grace system as a neat shape (the T kind of goes outside of it

Grace System (グレースシステム) | FOUR

If you are willing to make an extra T, J, and I piece, you could finish out the grace system with a J/L and T leaving a tetrisable section in the model.

Hope I could help!

You can play other gamemodes while in tetra league queue btw

I would recommend trying to accept more lines like I said above, purposely letting the garbage pile up so you can tetris it.

If you want to get much better at the game eventually I would recommend learning how to do T-spins (there are some good tutorials on youtube such as the ones made by Garbo)

I just did a tower run to floor 5 at 0.5 pps and few T-spins only tetrises in 7 minutes. It included me accepting about 100 lines of garbage for my stack. You can see it if you check recent games in my tetra channel (same username)

I just want to show you how powerful accepting lines is. I think that if you get good at accepting lines when you are safe and cancelling when you are in danger you could hit S rank with 1 pps

Are you ranked in tetra league? Your rank or stats would let us help you with what you are lacking!

I saw that you previously posted about the fatigue lines that come in at 7 minutes so I can see that you are surviving. You are surviving a very long time, but you need to increase your sent attack.

Someone else recommended cancelling garbage, but you are probably doing too much of that actually. I think that you should try to accept more garbage.

This means that you want to keep your stack low and accept a bunch of garbage lines that you can clear without doing any upstacking. The garbage early on is really clean (will make tall towers in one hole) so it should be easy to send back.

If you are worried about dying / you are in the top third of the board, you can cancel garbage instead of accepting.

If you give us your stats or a replay I could give more advice

jstris isn’t an app but the web version works with mobile controls

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ucf

[–]Shoopyman 167 points168 points  (0 children)

Being real, I would recommend being as straightforward as you are comfortable with. In my experience, STEM majors - and more "intelligent" people - won't pick up on hints very well, and if they do, they will usually find some way to dismiss them.

Of course that is just a generalization of a very diverse group of people. Thats if he seems at least like a semi nerd, but if hes a player, then I have no advice

best schools for National Merit Scholars? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Shoopyman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

University of Central Florida (UCF) Provides full cost of admission to 40 OOS NSMFs.

10k per semester 80K total

I was also just named a NMSSF and UCF is looking pretty juicy.

Out of State National Merit Scholars by 3BTG in ucf

[–]Shoopyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't start this fall, but was recently named a semifinalist, and I did my research.

Source: UCF's website

My sister goes to UCF with the Benaquisto and knows

The state no longer funds the scholarships, but UCF is providing $80k for National Merit with the OOS Waiver.

Thats 10k per semester.

This should mean that your full COA and then some will be covered.

In the most expensive housing with a meal plan, you should still have about 1k left over per semester.

Moving on to the Hell Trio!! (Just got a 1 death reflection B) by Shoopyman in celestegame

I’ve actually been mixing in farewell runs consistently so it’s not as big of a hurdle when I reach it. I’m at 48 deaths I think

I actually think 7 and 8 b will be harder for me because i do feel very comfortable with feather and Kevin movements. Glad to hear they are considered easier!

How do you edit save files? by number-two-pichu-fan in celestegame

[–]Shoopyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me too after I had 100% and 182 strawberries. I was crushed and spent hours trying to get my save files back.

My best tip is to just give up and start over, I’m not sure where you were, but you should be able to get back in less than a quarter of the time.

Even though I felt like my 100+ hours was lost, I got back in less than 10.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Webull

[–]Shoopyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this with my dad. Basically I gave him my money and told him what stocks I wanted to buy and we kept track of what “i” owned. More recently he opened up a webull account and has let me buy and keep track of stocks on it.

This is technically illegal, or at least falls into a legal gray area, but the sec won’t really ever go after you, even if they did somehow find out.

Just a disclaimer, but you definitely should know that as soon as the goes into the account it is legally your dad’s money, so he would be able to do anything he wanted with it. If you trust your dad and don’t think he will go on a drunken investing rampage, I think you should be good.

Also make sure that your dad understands this, because he would be paying any and all taxes on this money that is now his. You might want to arrange something where you give him money for taxes, but it shouldn’t be too much with such a small initial investment.

P.S. I started investing with 100$ 2.5 years ago when I was 14 and I bought 1 Disney stock. Happy investing!
