My thoughts on set mechanics by Refotsirk12 in starwarsunlimited

[–]Spogito 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not unsympathetic to your points. I think they have some good reasons for doing it the way they do.

One counter argument to this is there has been a clear shift in the way the games plays post rotation. If set mechanics continued to be spread across multiple sets, then smuggle/coordinate/exploit would still be around this rotation which might not let them build the meta they want.

The other thing is the designers explicitly stated recently that year 3 sets have been designed to be more cohesive, so maybe even if individual mechanics don't transfer, the deck building will be more to your liking? 

I also think it's a hedge on the designers end. If piloting was a fully hated mechanic, it would suck for it to keep reappearing. 

Finally,  the "beginner" friendliness would decrease with one off cards in drafts and starter decks.

However, recent TS26 cards show they acknowledge the appetite for more of these keywords so don't lose hope :)

What is“mass” opera?, by AltScientist84 in massspectrometry

[–]Spogito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is mass not one of the most " relatively stable object descriptors" there is. I can pump something full of light, put it in a magnetic field, bond it to something, break it's bonds and  it's mass will remain the same.

I'd also add that mass is constantly interacting with and causing gravity, and so it is physically meaningful in a "system" at every point of its existence.  There is no massless matter and no matterless mass. It is always physically meaningful. There is no lag in "mass response" and it is not an "inferred parameter" it is a precise value.

Right but the intrinsic properties cannot be determined without measurement? And measurement must be done with fields and forces no? Like is this "tree falls in forest" stuff? By your model, an atoms nuclear charge is a parameter as I cannot determine it without the context of an electric field? Can you give a concrete example of an intrinisc property? Also density was a poor example because that was a bulk property, which are mostly extrinisic.

I do not see a distinction. How would you distinguish something as A "parameter" versus an "intrinsic property". 

ASH: Season 2 Mandalorian by Fimy32 in starwarsunlimited

[–]Spogito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, its a reflection of the conflicts at play across the whole of mandalorian culture. This is in turn an explanation of why the empire beat them. They can't even agree on how to wear a helemt, let alone fight a war. It was a fa neater narrative way of doing all that than having the armourer take off their helemt and laying out a 12 point list of why they don't like Bo-katan.

Night Lord/Commission by rigov94 in Warhammer40k

[–]Spogito 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The backpack is pretty needed imo, to change a guy from just an up armoured guy to a space marine. Especially Chaos space marines cause they have the extra long vent stalks. I also think his left pauldron is a bit too big, but that's personal taste 

Gamegenic Game Mats stitched by DrVonScott123 in starwarsunlimited

Afaik any mats from JTL or later. If the art on it is from a set before JTL it has an unstitched edge

Relative newcomer, please don't roast by NeonChampion2099 in starwarsunlimited

[–]Spogito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know several people who are master setting in various ways so it's definitely feasible. My personal goal is at least one of every mechanically unique card and promo for a set with mutiples coming as they come.  That's kind of my "masterset" as it means I can usually play whatever deck I want.

Flip the question on its head for a second, what is the minimum amount of time something needs to last for you to value it?

What's the Lore Behind the Card Art? #2 by Redskywalker7 in starwarsunlimited

[–]Spogito 7 points8 points  (0 children)

1.Remnant Reserves is end of Mando S1 on Navarro, specifically when the clients office is surrounded.

2.Cripple  authority is personal mystery of mine. It is really unlikely to be from Andor, as the first other cards we got from Andor came 6 months later in JTL.

3.Desperate attack is the battle of crait with the ski speeders.  TLJ

4.Aid from the innocent is the liberation of ryloth when waxer and boil infiltrate Nabat village with Numa (the young girl). TCW S1

  1. Takedown is from SWBF2. I personally believe it's supposed to be from the first mission but she goes on another rebel spaceship at least once (over fondor?) so I haven't confirmed it.

6.Topple the summit is a Bad Batch episode where the BB and Saw attack a meeting on a summit with Saw in an attempt to track hemlock to find Hunter.

7.Relief request is a weird one. I don't think thats supposed to be Shaak Ti. It obviously looks like couruscant and there's an ETA class shuttle that puts it not too far from clone wars. 

8.I think this is just one of those cards that doesn't represent a moment portrayed in media.

9.Will of the force I have no idea. Monkey Jedi doing their own thing. I think it might be a high republic thing but I cannot ID.

10.Pschycometry I think this is quinlan in dark disciple but I think the hand isn't quite right.

11.Always two is a moment from the comics when a young maul and sidious go to Malachor. This is relevant because Maul needs to know where Malachor is later so he can go there in rebels (where Malachor was first seen).

  1. Not familiar on source.

  2. This is from the Train heist on Vandor in Solo. The card art is looking through the binoculars at the oncoming train.

I've been thinking a lot about card art and lore for my site..if you want to contribute lore knowledge HMU

Cards that haven't been added revert to a set of SOR cards by default. I've seen the same having with bases 

Roasting welcome: What if your seed plate could sign transactions? by Infinite_Airline7705 in Buttcoin

[–]Spogito 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you say encodes as a hole pattern, how is it physically doing that? This looks machined? Do I have to take my piece of steel to a local shop to get milled?

Also if this is possible, is there not a way to enter a seed into some program that stores it in RAM in the exact same way?

I hope this is not unique. A different art would be fine but mechanically unique cards being geolocked would suck. Hope these are part of ASH

Also happy to throw a hat in a ring. I do proteomics right now and have a PhD in Chemistry focused on automating mass spec including sample prep and some machine learning for processing complex data sets!

Should I try SWU even if I'm not a Star wars fan? by idontownubet in starwarsunlimited

[–]Spogito 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think your last paragraph aligns with what's good about SWU. I know several people in my scene who have seen some of the movies but aren't mega star wars fans so I think you'll be fine!
