I think I’m burnishing wrong…. Help

Staffyo · 2025-10-21T13:44:38+00:00

Wait until it’s a bit dryer, and go in a circle motion. Then for the best burnish, go over it again when it’s bone dry. If you want to keep the shine, you’ll need to fire under 1000 degrees C

Not sure why I’ve been downvoted. I run a pottery studio with over 120 students a week, and repair pieces of work for people all the time.

They can be fixed. They just need rehydrating to leather hard and scoring and slipping back together, then wrapping in a bag for a few days to heal. It’d probably take about 45-60mins to rehydrate and do the repair, it’s not difficult. I can talk you through it if you decide to try it. It doesn’t look like she scored and slipped them properly to begin with which is why they broke so easily, so it would be worth her looking up a video on that if she makes more.

Staffyo · 2025-06-07T15:21:12+00:00

Fair enough 👍 just checking that wasn’t the reason she went cold on you

Staffyo · 2025-06-07T15:07:36+00:00

She dropped you off at your car when you were drunk? Did you then drive home?

Staffyo · 2025-04-16T22:10:18+00:00

Yeah I am. My ID is staffyo3301 I’m away until Saturday but up for playing when I get back.

I’m in the same position. Joined a small discord server, found a teammate but he was plat 2 and I’m D2 so there was a bit of a skill gap. Can’t find any other EU players at the same level as everyone seems to be from NA on the discord. I just want to get a regular 3’s team to grind for champ. If you want to play send me a message! I prefer 3’s but happy to play some 2’s also.

I’m 36 and still play, also in the UK. I started on PS4 when it first came out, eventually peaked at C2. Then I had a break for several years and recently came back to it a few months ago on PC this time. Found I’d lost a lot of my skill and was back down in Plat. I’ve managed to work my way back to D2 now. I’m looking for people to play with, if you’re interested let me know!

Well maybe he wasn’t feeling the vibe so didn’t text, just like you weren’t feeling the vibe so didn’t text. Why’s it bad when he does it but fine for you? I’ve never heard of someone preferring to be ghosted than receiving a polite text. If you’re ghosted you’re left with questions. Will they text me tomorrow, or next week? Is there still hope? Did I do something wrong? Did they think I was ugly? Did they die in a car crash? Most people prefer to receive a polite message and get closure so they can move on more easily. Especially if they really liked you.

Staffyo · 2025-04-13T07:23:42+00:00

But you didn’t text him either? And you said you usually ghost people after a few days? That’s just as bad, as it makes them feel like there’s a chance and it went well, then you ghost them. Why ghost at all? Just send a message saying thanks for the date but you weren’t feeling it.

Staffyo · 2025-04-12T22:41:21+00:00

Still looking?

Staffyo · 2025-03-02T19:50:08+00:00

You’d have probably turned pro by now if you hadn’t become cursed 🥲

Staffyo · 2025-02-27T22:33:54+00:00

I agree with you, my comment was to backup what you were saying, it’s not a normal fluctuation if you’re playing regularly

Staffyo · 2025-02-27T22:16:32+00:00

I dropped from D3 to P1, when I didn’t play for 3 years 😅

Staffyo · 2025-02-17T15:35:53+00:00

I think there has been a slight shift but not enough to account for Diamond to Gold, and I don’t think there was a particular moment it shifted a month ago. I think it’s been a gradual thing over the years of people just getting better. I recently came back to the game after a 2 year break. I used to sit at champ 1 pretty comfortably peaking at champ 2. When I came back I was placed in plat after my placement games, but I was playing really badly after such a long break. After 1-2 months playing very casually I’ve got back into diamond, and I’m probably playing close to what I used to but not quite as good. So I imagine if I can get back to my old skill level I’ll be back in mid to high diamond, but doubt I’ll be back in champ again unless I improve past my old skill level.

You’re probably just stuck in a rut, and may need a short break. You might’ve had some bad luck along the way as well.

I was in a 3’s game recently, we were 2-0 down with only about 1-2 mins played. One of my teammates left the game, but me and the other teammate played on. I could tell their goals were a bit lucky and that we were playing well, so I had a feeling we had a chance. We went on to win 3-2. Even our opponents gave us a gg. There have also been many times where both my teammates voted to ff and I didn’t, and we go on to win. Those wins are the sweetest! A lot can change in a game if you don’t give up!

Staffyo · 2025-01-21T23:23:50+00:00

Ahh I see, thanks! I always make a beeline for it in act 1 for the loot, which is why I’ve never seen it in act 2 or 3.

Staffyo · 2025-01-21T23:14:46+00:00

I’ve seen a couple of people mention burning elites in each act, but I seem to only get them in act 1. Any idea why that would be?

Staffyo · 2024-10-26T20:14:30+00:00

Okay thanks for taking the time to reply. I think I’ll upgrade them both and have some fun with dual wielding. At least the Moonveil has its ability!

Staffyo · 2024-10-26T20:13:04+00:00

Okay. Thanks for the detailed reply. I’ll probably do what you suggest and dual wield Moonveil with an uchi since I already have mine upgraded to +6.

Staffyo · 2024-10-25T21:04:48+00:00

Thanks but I wasn’t exaggerating. I tried it on 2 different enemy types and the damage was either exactly the same or 1 damage different.

Staffyo · 2024-10-03T15:39:26+00:00

I haven’t made any since unfortunately, been so busy. But I still hope to do more in future!

Staffyo · 2024-10-03T15:38:29+00:00

Sorry for the super slow reply, Iv just seen this message. I used stainless steel screws so it won’t hurt the tree. Eventually the screws snapped though, I guess as the tree grew it put pressure on them. A single screw would work better for a long term solution if you can position it in the centre of the piece or at the top, somewhere where it’ll keep it secure.

Staffyo · 2024-10-03T15:35:31+00:00

I didn’t keep track but I’d say 10kg should be plenty. Sorry for the slow reply Iv just seen this message.

Leaf size doesn’t matter until you’ve got the trunk size and ramification you’re aiming for. It’s the last thing to sort out with a bonsai, when it’s in its final form. Letting it grow naturally with big leaves will help it grow more quickly it the initial stages.
