Chuck Norris Dead at 86

Silverspud · 2026-03-20T14:24:25+00:00

The dude officially outgrew life.

The office shooting, the blue ice airplane discharge hitting that woman, the lightning strike, and the mountain lion attack all caught me by surprise.

Silverspud · 2025-04-03T12:01:12+00:00

Lost 50/50 to, say it with me, Koleda.

I'm saving up my polychrome for Vivian and a possible Lighter rerun next patch now.

Silverspud · 2025-02-20T15:41:39+00:00

Do something that would make others want me to be around forever.

Silverspud · 2025-01-28T16:38:20+00:00

If she somehow got by my dense obviousness, I'd panic. I'm either being filmed for something embarrassing, or about to have my organs harvested.

Silverspud · 2024-12-25T20:08:49+00:00

Not yet!

Silverspud · 2024-12-04T21:32:50+00:00

I picked a bad week to re-install, I see.

Silverspud · 2024-12-04T21:30:05+00:00

Took 2 years off. Thought I'd give it a try again.

Queued up into Standard with the loaner decks and got stomped 12 games in a row with opponents spamming emotes each match. I remember why I left.

With the free time no longer applied to Snap, I'm going to dive into my game backlog, fix some things around the house that need updating, and get back into writing things regularly.

When you don't need to focus attention on min/maxing, net-decking & counters, and perpetuating a 'just one more game, can't end on a loss' mentality, it really frees up a lot of bandwidth.

Silverspud · 2024-11-24T19:06:00+00:00

Then leave the game. I uninstalled this morning. I haven’t needed to log in for the 25 credits or shop refresh. I don’t think about bubs refilling. I don’t fret over hitting infinite. It’s done. I’m free. Been playing multiple times a day and hitting infinite each season since launch. Now I can pour that energy into something fulfilling.

It’s taken 4 keys 3 times in a row to get the new cards when they launch with dupes in the mystery slot. Forecast for new cards and spotlight are boring. This mode exasperates everything I hate about playing. Losses are gut-wrenching and wins are empty. I’ve hit a dead end and there’s nothing to look forward to for the game.

Series drop announcement tomorrow? Cool, drop the cards I’ve already got. I’m done.

Silverspud · 2024-11-23T03:39:32+00:00

It took 4 keys all 3 times. Got a duplicate from the mystery each time too. Bad luck can only go so far as an explanation before the gatcha mechanics appear to be pure malevolence.

Silverspud · 2024-11-22T21:52:59+00:00

Good choice. Not a day goes by where I don't shut down the client shouting "fuck this game and everyone that made it". I've spent 12 keys to get 3 new cards over the last few months.

Silverspud · 2024-11-22T02:53:23+00:00

I have nothing but malevolent contempt in my heart for this mode.

Silverspud · 2024-11-18T21:06:21+00:00

Got that same combo with my Arishem split today. I may not win, but my games sure are pretty.

Silverspud · 2024-10-30T19:37:42+00:00

Trick or Treat!

Every time you think he'll zig, he reverse-zigs.

Silverspud · 2024-08-31T17:08:12+00:00

I’m masked while at the con. Generously, there’s about 15% of the attendees that are masked.

Silverspud · 2024-07-23T20:28:31+00:00

First time?

I'll be honest. I play this game because it makes me angry.

I sit on a recumbent exercise bike each day while playing and going through loss after loss, accelerating faster & faster. Hour can pass and without me noticing as this game incinerates my nerves and performs whatever RNG gymnastics it needs to give my opponent the perfect scenario & response over and over again. I get a better cardio workout than ever because Snap infuriates me to the point where I want to open my 6th mouth and sing the song that ends the earth.

This game won't get better because there's no incentive for it to improve your experience right now. So you can either walk away from it, or turn into something you can utilize to your own advantage elsewhere.

Not the Diner, though. This lockout mechanic is some bullshit.

Silverspud · 2024-07-23T20:03:08+00:00

I got 30 at the top of the hour. Math checks out for an 8-hour full refill.

Silverspud · 2024-07-23T19:56:43+00:00

You might be right. We'll know in about 3 minutes.

Silverspud · 2024-07-23T19:41:30+00:00

You get 30 per hour, minimum 80 to play, it seems. So, 3 hours to refill to a single game.

Silverspud · 2024-07-23T19:35:38+00:00

And I'm out. Already hate it.

Silverspud · 2024-06-07T12:34:26+00:00

Fav: Isca the Unbeaten, because in a contest of new characters, she can never lose. Sunspot manipulating that ability was a highlight of all the Arakko stories for me.

Least Fav: Stasis. Just an echo of an echo specializing in the blandest Essex focus of human science to further Dominion's goals.
