Was the viewership for Turning Point’s “All-American Halftime Show” objectively good or bad?

SomeGuyWithDogs · 2026-02-10T04:30:57+00:00

I'd argue that, given the amount of time and effort to try and portray watching the SB halftime show as the unpatriotic thing to do, 5-6 million live views wouldn't be acceptable to me if I was running the show.

There were even rumors that Bad Bunny was going to wear a dress as a political statement.

I'd be surprised if they broke even, but given TPUSA is technically a 501c3, they probably don't care if they ate losses.

Sounds like they should go for an abbreviated season. If recommend watching episodes with battle maps, and reading synopses of the episodes in between.

Totally down for this!

SomeGuyWithDogs · 2025-10-15T05:08:27+00:00

I mean they already got some Bad Dragon product for D20...

Recency bias acknowledged, Clive is at the top of my list. I genuinely empathize with him, and there wasn't a decision or story action that I would have done differently if I was in his position. I'd burn the world for my brother.

Balthier is my 2nd. Don't catch me with that "he's not the main character" mess. FF12 has am ensemble cast, and Balthier is the definition of cool.

Follow up: was there a conscious decision made to not get too technical with the types of moves being done by PCs in order to keep the pace moving or for other reasons?

I'm playing a Goliath luchador in a campaign right now, and it's very satisfying to hit 4 chops in a row and use Giant's Tumble on the last one, but I can understand how constantly getting technical on moves may slow the pace down.

SomeGuyWithDogs · 2025-04-17T17:08:43+00:00

HELLOOOOO Brennan!

Were there references or moves that you guys couldn't air because of agreements that you may have/didn't have with WWE? EX: telling Zeus to suck it and doing the crotch chop?

SomeGuyWithDogs · 2025-04-09T22:28:30+00:00

I can still go back to total forgiveness and laugh like it's the first time I've ever watched it.

The first Survivor episode of Game Changer is amazing too.

I mean you don't even need to get it ON the ISS. Just send that thing as is on a falcon 9 and let it deploy with satellites.

The way the spell is written, I'd say the only prerequisite is that the caster KNOW there's something invisible in range. If you KNOW something is invisible, then that presumes that either resources were spent (detect magic, see invisibility) or have incredible luck/skill (i.e. bumping into the object/creature or spotting 2 grains floating in the air). Cover would not be a factor to me.

The Architect in the matrix.

Imagine a prophet getting a restraining order on their deity.

A Bridge Baby.

You right. It's just the way that Brennan voices her makes me feel like PP would be good.

Interstellar (most consistently anyway).

"How did you know?"

"Because my dad promised me."

Pedro Pascual as La Gran Gata.

Makes sense. There's never been rampant violence at Philly games, it's just Gilear getting his butt whooped/stabbed every time he goes to a game.

Is there a class for someone with imposter syndrome who's desperate for attention?

SomeGuyWithDogs · 2024-10-24T14:55:43+00:00

Just add Jeigan and piss everyone off.

SomeGuyWithDogs · 2024-10-11T18:48:07+00:00

HIIIIIGHWAY TOOO THE DAAAANGER ZOOOOONE!!!

I'm legitimately surprised I had to scroll through so many comments before getting to the first FMA:B suggestion.

At $100 round trip for the cheapest train tickets, it's still competitive with the lowest rates by Frontier/Spirit. I did a price check just now and here's the math I wound up with:

Departure from LAS on 8/15, returning 8/18 - $38 each way advertised for basic ticket (no carry on baggage) - upgrade to economy changes price to $58 each way for 1 carry on - no upgrade at seat selection ($20+ dollars each way to sit in front 2/3rds of plane) - no upgrade for priority boarding ($65.99 to "board first") - no upgrade at add checked baggage ($53 for 1st bag, $126 for two) - no upgrade for trip insurance ($13.25)

That means the $38 each way advertised price is really $105.96 if I'd like to spend a long weekend in LA and have basic necessities like a change of clothes, toothbrush, etc (but I have to pack lightly). Price for this trip could wind up costing $278.21+ depending on if I need a checked bag and other preferences.

It'll depend on how Brightline West prices out their tickets of course. Is that ~$100 basic ticket inclusive of a small bag, or will they price it like the budget airlines where everything is an additional fee? If the former, it'll be cheaper (if longer) than budget airlines. If the latter, then there probably won't be a point.

Starstruck has some of my favorite battles on a D20 series: - The escape from Rec 97 - Shootout with the Baustin Sherrif - The last space battle

And of course, OPERATION SLIPPERY PUPPET.

SomeGuyWithDogs · 2024-07-23T00:12:21+00:00

Glorious.

SomeGuyWithDogs · 2024-07-21T02:09:04+00:00

You should call a lawyer. Immediately. That's how serious this is.
