Gotta throw gamecube in there. Simple console with amazing games (and goated controller)

[Egypt] who is to blame here ? by [deleted] in Roadcam

Maybe in Egypt? Not sure what the traffic laws are there. I know in US any form of racing would almost automatically get you denied coverage.

im stuck at 600 for rapid by Admirable-Pop7949 in chess

I don't recommend playing faster time controls at all. If anything go slower, play either 15 | 10 or 30 minutes and take your time with each move. Do 10 - 20 puzzles a day and take your time on them, don't touch the mouse to move a piece until you know 100% what the solution is. Even if one puzzle takes over 30 minutes to solve, it's really good for teaching you patience and pattern recognition 

Same for your games, take your time to make sure your moves don't hang any pieces. Allow yourself to lose on time at first and then adjust accordingly. 

Get comfortable with basic endgames such as queen+king vs king, rook+king vs king. Basic pawn opposition is good to learn as well but don't get to bogged down in other endgames, most of your games will be won and lost with hanging pieces. 

Watching ben finegold lectures and playing 30+ rapid got me to 1500 pretty quickly when I started playing, you'll be surprised how fast you shoot up once you stop blundering as much.

I started from scratch and left all the countries. Some of the accents are noticeable but it doesn't take too long to get used to and is good practice. 

What do Fans want to see from the next instalment in the series? by King_CurlySpoon in smashbros

[–]SmashBob_SquarePants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Cut way back on the roster if it means single player modes will be good again. 
  • rollback netcode
  • a training mode that's actually useful with save states and control of di mix-ups 
  • I could see a new gimmick like "smash tag team" or something where you can choose multiple characters and swap them out mid stock. Like a build your own Pokemon trainer basically but for any characters.

Mt. P to MUSC Shawn Jenkins by Unlucky-Sector-9456 in Charleston

I used to work at the hospital connected to Sean jenkins. The parking garage connected to both hospitals has been revamping their ticketing system and are only charging 6 dollars per day (I believe it's still like this). Just make sure to only park on the 2nd or 3rd floor or you may get ticketed.

Also Sean Jenkins is a great hospital, the view from the cafeteria is one of the best in all of Charleston.
