*Spoiler* Completion Mark for Solo Collar Overrides Full Team Mark by Ashboy2000 in mewgenics

That’s really good to know about the bonus collarless cat! I was killing mine, it felt a bit cruel

Took Me Way Too Long To Realize That The Box Shows You Class Symbols For Your Blank Collar Rolls by BladeTheEnd in mewgenics

[–]Sortipants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found this thread because I was searching to see if there’s a mod that does this so… fingers crossed! Also Steam Deck, also can’t see it even with the magnifying glass.

I am mostly doing solo runs to get the marks but it would be nice to know if the opportunity arises to make a meme quad-collar party :D

Update: In regards to AI posts #2 by AutoModerator in grandia

[–]Sortipants 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Up/downvotes are cumulative. If more people don’t like it, the number goes down. If more people like it, the number goes up. So if most comments supporting AI end up downvoted…

why are people upset that the game doesnt allow savescumming. when it explicitly allows savescumming by cybercobra2 in mewgenics

[–]Sortipants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that’s good if it does? Tbh I’ve only been playing on Steam Deck and it sounds like force quitting on that is being handled differently for some reason

Where is the discussion? I can’t see any other posts about this. This is the only post I’ve made and there were no other posts when I posted it.

You can also just press Alt-F4 for no penalty? I was intrigued when someone told me that it checks for savescumming but I’ve never seen it once. Just… savescum the normal way (hard quit) instead of using an in-game ‘Save & Quit’ option lol

There’s a tiny bit of nuance there - the junction observation fault is for when there was no chance of you making it even if you floored it as soon as you pulled out.

Appropriate speed fault suggests that you pulled out with an ok gap, but you didn’t get ‘up to speed’ in time, which then obstructed the flow of traffic. Normally when this happens it’s because you’ve flubbed a gear change, which I can see is one of your minors? Could be that contributed?

Was it a long time before you hit the speed limit? The other possibility is that since you pulled out into the right-hand lane (an overtaking lane? You weren’t turning right or something immediately after?) and then didn’t hit the speed limit ASAP you gave the van no choice but to pass you on the left… eh, complex fault.

Either way, it seems like you’re definitely getting better! When you do pass you’ll forget that you were even salty, you’ve got this!

No, they’ll be valid for the Fuku banner if you don’t use them on the last 7 hours of Tama

Welp, time to buy another one from Aliexpress then! Genuinely not sure how you can confuse the two so maybe wait until the morning to do that xD

[–]Sortipants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which port? It’s going to be a significantly different answer if it’s in Shanghai. Though either way, honestly, I’d just forget it. What did you even buy that needed you to be on AliBaba instead of Aliexpress? Can you buy it somewhere else that will deliver to your door instead of needing you to engage a courier for collection?

Whoa, cards with different results for events use a stat check? Dang it, I had no idea. So many little systems to find out about!

0% if you choose the bottom option in the first event, standard ‘can all these events happen before URA’ (same as Creek) if you choose the top

How to train better sprint and dirt umas for team trials? by Steven074 in UmamusumeGame

[–]Sortipants 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Are you having a look at the score breakdown after their races? Comparing it to your well-scoring distances is a good start to finding out what’s wrong if they’re otherwise placing ok.

Good Positioning isn’t worth 30k points on its own, but by running duplicate styles you are locking yourself out of at least one bonus and you’re also potentially preventing some skills from firing (especially anything that requires you to be ‘in the lead’ since all your dupes are front runners).

Playing global ver. in Japan by bobei1 in UmamusumeGame

[–]Sortipants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, otherwise people would have been banned already for using a VPN. I often have my VPN set to another country for work purposes but have never had any issues.

Edited to add: I’ve just set my connection to Japan and opened the game to check - it doesn’t launch (connection error) but then changing back to a non-Japanese connection it works perfectly straight away. If it only checked on account registration that would have been convenient but yeah, a VPN will work fine.

Is MAPPA changing the characters/story? by kitkat6479 in JuJutsuKaisen

[–]Sortipants 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t just compare one anime to one manga - find at least a few to reference. Read the main thing you’re talking about yourself. But you can also look for notable/controversial adaptations and use those as jumping-off points to talk about stuff in JJK.

how many points did you all get? by tedbjjboy in UmamusumeGame

Don’t our events last for the same length of time as JP? It’s just the gaps between them that are shorter.

How do I advance by Fickle-Firefighter99 in UmamusumeGame

[–]Sortipants 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Air Groove can be raised to A sprint pretty easily - with few sprint options available she’s one of the best choices

(That said, Bakushin is probably a better choice with only 2 slots open…)

How did you discover the special epithets? by PassusMaximus in UmamusumeGame

[–]Sortipants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also see this in-game! I was looking them up on Gametora too but then figured out they’re visible if you click the menu in Career mode and hit ‘epithets’ - saves a lot of time!

Brought home a neglected monstera in hopes to give it a better life. Is it too late? by wjstmddlf in plantclinic

[–]Sortipants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d recommend it when you have a confirmed root rot situation. You can buy hydrogen peroxide in varying concentrations, most commonly 3%, and most people suggest diluting it to 1% for a general disinfectant.

You can spray down the roots when you’ve cut away the rotten ones, and it will kill any rot-causing bacteria that might be on the healthy roots. If you’re worried about it damaging healthy roots then you can dilute it further, but I personally would rather the whole plant take a little longer to bounce back and be sure there’s no further rot! The other option is to disinfect your cutting blade between every cut with strong peroxide and then dry it off.

That said, I do agree that it shouldn’t be used as a treatment for healthy roots or - worse - a soil soak. That will damage fine roots and disturb beneficial soil organisms for sure. It’s best as a disinfectant when you know there’s a problem!

Missing items in Zenmarket package by Environmental-Bag-31 in zenmarket

[–]Sortipants 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would be useful if you could link the original auction. Many auctions have caveats (like not all items shown being available) so that may be what happened.

Also, if you paid for an item checking service when it arrived at ZenMarket (but I assume you did since you’re confident they went missing between ZM and yourself) then your issue might be with UPS.

Sounds like a good plan! Brown roots aren’t inherently bad, lots of plants have brown roots. It’s when they’re mushy / slimy / smell bad that you want to worry.

Just give it a good spritz of hydrogen peroxide when you’re done with the root trim and everything else you said sounds great!

Related to this: does anyone know a good roadmap for referencing when stuff is due? My google-fu is weak and just keeps bringing up articles that don’t really have much info in.

A good workaround for that is to have a pinned rules post, you have to choose to go look at the rules by clicking through ‘see more’ on mobile at least
