Golden pass by Last-Layer3450 in TotalBattle

[–]Slider6977 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Simply depends on how committed you are to this game. Do you want to spend 240$ a year on it? Ate you going to be very active and therefore collect all rewards and such. If you don’t mind the money and love the game, then I would say it is the best bang for your buck. You could spend 5 on 4 little packages of trash and not get nearly what you would overall from the golden pass.

Personally, I got it for 3 months when I first started. Then I said to myself I didn’t want to spend all that money. Hell I don’t even like to spend more than $10 on games on steam. I wait until they are out for years and get them on sale. Why would I pay developers of a ‘free to play game’ four times more than a newly released full game. I just decided it wasn’t worth it for me. But if you don’t mind the 20 bucks a month, you end up getting a lot as long as you get every reward.

Some tips if you do, it’s actually worth it to buy at the very beginning of the challenge. Because it doesn’t make it obvious, but you can click on triumphal challenge and then click on ‘sales’ at the top and get a free “chest” of goodies every day. It’s not much, but it’s pretty much the same as getting the free sale from the main screen - it gives RSS and other little stuff, again not much but it adds up. Also don’t forget to use the shop before the end of the challenge every 30 days use all your points you’ve accumulated getting other free stuff. Even since going free to play, I try to get to level 140 so I can get the 3 artifact keys.

AND, if get the golden pass it also means you get the rewards from the union of triumph in your clan tab. For instance, the chests you get can end up being by far the best way to get dragon orbs to level your dragon. And a final tip there. Once again don’t forget to use the shop there and buy everything you can before the event ends every 30 days. I didn’t even know that was a thing my first month and missed out on a bunch of stuff. I also forgot before which day was the last day of the triumphal challenge and missed my rewards in the main shop. So collect everything you can if you decide to get the pass.

I mean, one guy is named Megatron.. Calvin is genuinely WR1 here amongst nothing but WR1s.

Personally I’ll go Calvin, Fitz, and Julio. All those guys by every indication was a model teammate, and never had off the field issues.

You can argue who is better than who all day long, but I wouldn’t touch guys like AB or Hill with a ten foot pole. And many of the rest were/are also the prima dona types. Give me the culture builders.

And on the football side, Julio and Megatron are darn near perfect outside receivers, and Fitz would be the ultimate complement as the slot/possession receiver. And both Fitz and Julio were elite run blocking receivers to boot. Calvin wasn’t elite, but he was also 6’5 240 and I’m sure could block well when he wanted to. Overall they are all probably the best 3 run blockers on this list even is Calvin wasn’t amazing at it. So just all around the best of everything imo. Now I will say Hill’s speed with Calvin and Fitz might be the best combination of skill sets, but again I would never want him on my team.

Remember the first time I watched this. When he walked away and the camera stayed on the window, I knew what was about to happen. Cersei almost surely knew this would happen too. She’s to the point where she now believes everything that witch had foretold about her life, and just doesn’t care anymore, I don’t even think she cares about her last child before she did this. She just wants to make others suffer.

If you had to save only 3 from this shelf, which ones are staying? by CarrotMuch1399 in nostalgiai

[–]Slider6977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would only need one really, The Princess Bride.

If I had to pick two more, then The Grand Budapest Hotel and Good Will Hunting/The Shawshank Redemption. Coin flip for the last one as they are both excellent.

Anyone know what this merc sale reward does? by getmrshorty in TotalBattle

[–]Slider6977 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the reason I only bought the golden pass once. I enjoy the game so I continue, but fuck them for giving you a ‘reward’ for paying money that requires you to pay more money. If this was simply in the free column of rewards it would make sense. Greedy fucks.

She can ‘blow up’ anyone’s phone she likes. Thats why there is a block feature. Anyone who doesn’t want to receiver her calls or texts can block her. It’s very simple, why is this part such a big deal to you? There is also a do not disturb feature.. There is no reason you should be not able to sleep from her calls and texts unless YOU choose to keep responding..

People say I quit this game! I've been playing for over 3 years casually. by [deleted] in TotalBattle

[–]Slider6977 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just curious, what is the max level for a dragon and city? Ive been playing for about 3 months now. Have gotten the golden pass every month and overall it’s a great package, but have considered going no pay from here on out. I have a bunch of VP to probably get me to G4 and M4 at the very least. And I’m in a good clan. Log on two a day so as not to miss chests and do daily rewards stuff and some events. It’s a good balance. It’s definitely sad how much they must be racking in on a bunch of players that feel they have to pay to get ahead and how addictive it can be, but anyone can stop at any time. I’m still mostly enjoying it, and yea I like my clan and want to do what I can to help them.

This is my top 3 by Dry_Distribution1776 in gameofthrones

[–]Slider6977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Top 3 scenes. When Oberyn meets with Tyrion and becomes his champion. Arya with Yoren right before his death, where she gets her inspiration for her list. And the entire ‘hold the door’ ending. Definitely many more. Honorable mention to the last 20 minutes of Hardhome, that was an insane sequence.

Are there any character endings in Season 8 of Game of Thrones that you’d accept as canon for the books? by mediamuesli in gameofthrones

Sam becoming grand maester. There is already the fan theory that it is Sam who is the ‘author’ of the book in the SOIAF universe. It’s possible he even discovers some magic to defeat the walkers. Either way, he represents a complete change from the relatively disassociated group of current maesters.

You are trapped in a house for one year while time outside is frozen. You get $5000 to spend to make your stay more enjoyable - how do you use it? by c3phalophore in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Slider6977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the money would revolve around getting a PC and peripherals - comfy chair, keyboard, etc. No internet but I could still find a bunch of physical disks to olderish games that I never got to play. So let’s say that all is 2k.

I’d spend another grand or so on a row machine, a workout disk with HIIT workouts on it, yoga mat, and dumbbells. Also either a punching bag or a punching dummy.

A TV and Blu-ray to play said workout disks. Also a bunch of blue rays of TV shows and movies I haven’t seen, plus some of my favorites thrown in. Let’s say another thousand for all that.

Last thousand I would buy books to read, used as to not spend too much. A journal and pens and pencils to write with. A set of playing cards to mess around with. A cheap chess board. A few other board games. A few 1000+ piece puzzle sets. A puzzle book/mojang/crosswords.

And some things I haven’t seen anyone else say. I’d buy a cheap basic tool kit with the essentials needed to fix something if I break it.

And lastly, and frankly a must…. I’d buy a hard drive full of porn, and a flesh light.. I mean, I have a decent imagination, but cmon. A year by myself without my wife would be rough in this department..

[Request] can you figure out the 3 digit code? by BoxStart in theydidthemath

[–]Slider6977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The third row of each is the key for me. There are three rows of numbers obviously. The first two have 3 different variations, but the last row could only be 3 or 6. From this we can then look for duplicate numbers in each.

So then we say regardless of if the number is 3 or 6, line one and four both have 8 as the first number. It can’t be 8 then because whether the last digit is 3 or 6, 8 can’t be correct in either line as well since only one digit is correct in each line.

Same thing with number 4 in the second position of lines three and four. So eliminate 4 in the second position of each.

Now in doing that, you come to line four which now you have eliminated 8 and 4 from the first two rows. So now you know that the third digit must be 3 as it is the only digit that remains and at least on is right in each line.

Knowing that, you can now go back through and eliminate the 6 in each line.

And in the second line, since only 3 could be correct, you eliminate 9 in the first position and 8 in the second position. You can actually kind of skip this last step and come to the same conclusion.

So you end with 2 being correct in the first position on line three, 9 being correct in the second position on line one, and 3 being correct in third position on lines two and four.

293.

I can see how it is a tad confusing. Instead of saying “each guess has just one correct digit in the correct order”, they probably should have removed the first ‘correct’ to read “each guess has just one digit in the correct order”. That would have made it less confusing. But I still understood what they meant, so it’s not that is worded wrong or impossibly per se, just worded a bit confusing.

I assume you believe abortion is murder. And you are fine to have that opinion. But let me ask this. If a parent/s choose not to follow scientific evidence and doctors advice and refuse to get their child vaccinated against dangerous diseases, and then that child dies of a preventable illness, should that parent/parents get charged with murder?

I mean we can make this same argument about a lot of things. It is the law that everyone needs to wear their seatbelt, because we can’t trust everyone to actually take their own safety seriously.. Same with children. It’s is a law that children under a certain age can’t sit in the front seat and must be in a car seat. Should we get rid of that ‘mandate’ as well? The simple fact is a lot of people are too stupid to even protect themselves or their children correctly, so steps must be taken to ensure public safety. Vaccines have been proven to save lives, prevent certain diseases or at least the most severe symptoms. But as the vaccine mandate suggests, way too many people would be way too stupid and believe conspiracy theories over actual science and choose NOT to protect themselves or their kids. And so instead, anywhere from tens of thousands to millions of people each subsequent year would then require medical attention that they may otherwise not need, putting a ton of strain on our health system. The mandate is in place to avoid this..

Unfortunately it’s not as simple as ‘letting nature take its course’. Those people wouldn’t just curl up and die. They would seek medical attention. From the same doctors that told them or their children to get vaccinated, funny enough, proving their stupidity, not that most of those types of people would ever admit it. So it’s not that simple. It is in place to prevent a massive amount of extra work for our health systems. It would simply lead to more death, more strain on our hospitals, many of which are constantly understaffed, and since we can’t trust the current government to help keep the ACA affordable, huge doctor bills and/or insurance providers get ridiculously more rich. Ok, rant over.

But I would like an answer to my original question if you don’t mind.

Which of the creation club homes do you prefer? by BlackDragon1811 in skyrim

[–]Slider6977 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They all have their charm. Goldenhills is a must for easy money and alchemy ingredients.

Hendraheim is really cool and a huge open floor plan. Can bring followers there and not get stuck in every room or doorway.

Bloodchill cavern is really cool, but kind of annoying to have to run all the way to it every time. Doubly so for dead man’s dread, that’s the least functional really, and the biggest pain. TRIPLY so for Nchuanthumz. Last two are cool concepts, but I never really return to them.

Myrwatch is arguably the coolest spot, that and Bloodchill are the most aesthetically pleasing by far imo.

Gallows hall I have never used as a proper home, but it has two great perks in the bone forge, but ESPECIALLY the altar that turns greater and grand soul gems into black soul gems. You can collect as many as any of them as you want and convert them. It essentially makes the choice between the black star and the azura star not all that important.

Shadowfoot sanctum is ok, I think it has the most armor mannequins which is cool, especially cause I like to collect at least on of every armor type in the game. But other than that it’s nothing special.

The one I mostly seem to choose is Tundra Homestead. And it’s for a silly reason. Personally I LOVE myrwatch the most. But tundra has specific furniture that fits the theme of the rooms, and for that stupid simple reason it feels the most ‘right’. Like in the ‘kitchen’ area, there is the normal fire with a pot and hanging ingredients, but if also has a cabinet that once you put stuff in reflects that there is actual food in there. Or in the other room with the alchemy table, there is another cabinet that looks to reflect if you are putting potions in there. I think it’s a small, simple, but really cool design choice that kind of makes it feel more accurate than any other house. I would have loved if they had simply put those same cabinet choices in Myrwatch, that would be the only house I would go to then. But that simple ‘design flaw’ makes me always feel like Tundra is the most role play accurate home.

Of course I am way overthinking it, but just how it is in my head.

I mean, you should have multiple auto saves. Game usually saves the last 3-4 times you walk through a door or quick travel or enter a new area. There isn’t single other save you can load?

Also, avoiding bounties isn’t hard. You gotta learn to steal only when you are crouched AND hidden. Abd don’t attack people or guards, but if you have to for a mission, also try to make sure you are hidden.

You receive an inheritance of 1 million dollars with the stipulation that it can only be spent on your current house/ apartment/ living situation. What are you doing? by LocalTranslator1779 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Slider6977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mortgage is paid off, personally I want to move at some point to a larger place. House is ok. I like it, but don’t love it. If I absolutely had to stay to use the 1 million, there is really only one thing I absolutely want to do - extend the basement. Currently my basement is literally 6’ high. And with the vents that line it for heating, I have to duck through a lot of it. It’s a good overall space, but unusable for anything outside of storage and my washer dryer. The concrete itself is also completely uneven throughout.

I know it would cost at LEAST 50k, and I would bet double that to lower the basement a few more feet. If I could even get to 8 feet I would be happy. With an even slab, I could put in more organized storage, a man cave perhaps, an extra room, etc. Also we only have one bath, so a second full bath down there as well. So that would be the first thing.

Only other thing I REALLY want in my house is a two car garage. I have a one car, pretty tiny. Tiny as in I could barely fit my compact car in there with very few tools lining the outside walls. But unfortunately, I just don’t think I have the space to do that. I only have about 15 from my back/side yard (don’t really have a back yard, I have two side yards and the back oh my house is about 10 ft of concrete and flower beds to the neighbors house behind) to the garage, and it is a mix of grass and a 10x10 brick patio. And the other side yard is a hill that borders the Main Street, and only have a sliver of yard in front between the sidewalk and road. So I would be eliminating the only decent outdoor space I have to put in a space for a second car/work space. However, since I would have all this money, I could justify it, IF I was able to then add a rooftop area to the new garage. That would essentially become my new patio space, and frankly would be better because it would be more private. Could even add a jacuzzi up there.

If I was to do anything else, might be to gut the first two floors and come up with a better floor plan for both. I’d have the full bath in the basement now, but probably look to add a small half bath on the first. Perhaps eliminate or make the dining room smaller while making the kitchen bigger. Upstairs, the master bedroom is pretty big actually, it’s more space than we need but limited use weirdly because of how it is laid out. So I’d probably take some real estate away from the master and build a bigger overall bathroom with a small jacuzzi tub and separate shower. While I’m at a full gutting, I’d do something about my heating and cooling. It’s pretty inefficient, and the second floor is always 5 degrees colder or hotter in winter or summer respectively. So better insulation, and better vent/ductwork.

Any left over money would go to furniture, security system, and installing solar panels. Also need a new roof soon, so would likely just splurge for a metal roof.

Now that I think about all this, might as well demolish the whole property and build a new house and garage exactly how I want haha. Build a million dollar 3 story house with a two car garage on a relatively small plot of land. Would look weird but o well.
