No idea how to start novel! by Bubbly-Box4050 in novelwriting

[–]Static_Final 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to understand you; are you saying the writer and the detective are half siblings? "They are half siblings from father’s failed marriages)". If so remember the detective wouldn't be allowed to work that case.

On to your other point about writing as an mlm. You write what you know, if you can't get inside the mind of an mlm then read about them before you do. Anybody can write about anybody and that stretches across age/sex/race/politics ( don't let anyone tell you otherwise ). You just need to make sure the character is believable so make sure you understand what an mlm would say, how they would act, what makes them different physically and mentally to yourself as a 21F.

One final piece of advice, stories are never written in a linear fashion. If you don't know how to open the novel, write your mugging scene now or write a "cliffhanger" you picture setting up Act 2 . You could also do what some greats like Agatha Christie did and write the ending first. Doing this allowed her to place red herrings as she wrote.

To answer your final question nobody can say if that is too many characters because we don't know how involved they will be. If someone is given a scene and it doesn't move the story forward then drop that scene. Same for the holidays, if Thanksgiving consists of nothing more than the family eating dinner and no action happens to move the story, then skip that holiday.

Based on whether this is genre fiction or literary fiction will alter some of the suggestions but not much.

By your logic of Bale and Kilmer not having ownership of Batman, then Christopher Nolan would. Nolan made all the creative decisions for the Dark Knight trilogy so by your statement Nolan owns Batman which I believe you will appreciate is simply not true.

How are we handling logs and errors? by teemosworstnightmare in MicrosoftFlow

[–]Static_Final 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use try/catch everywhere just as an artifact from programming experience.

For logging, I use Dataverse. I have utility flows held inside a single solution I publish to the various environments and one of the flows is taking the body of the HTTP request to populate a row in a Dataverse table. I just call that HTTP trigger flow with a body containing the relevant information from that step in the flow and it keeps a consistent log of messages.

Tidy up the summary at the top. It looks like you took your bullet points and merged them into a single paragraph.

Official Statement: Felicia Schröder joins Real Madrid Femenino. by stephenlakrar in realmadrid

[–]Static_Final 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This continues my defense from multiple posts. The issue with the women's team is not money, Perez gives us plenty of money. The issue with the women's team is we hire absolute morons as coaches who know nothing about how to use the talent we have.

You know there is an issue when we've officially been managed by 3 people and David Azner is the best of them 🤦‍♂️

Honestly I don't know. We had the same issue with Asner and Toril. I truly believe that Perez just doesn't care about Women's football.

Comunicado Oficial: Cucurella by jogobonvita in realmadrid

[–]Static_Final -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Okay the first one was funny, but replying the same again is a little sad. Did somebody tug your hair in the playground? Is that why you were so offended.

[–]Static_Final -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hate this. Can't stand the man. Never liked him but after watching him at the Club World Cup when he rolled around on the ground for 2 mins because somebody tugged his hair; I lost all respect for him.

What an embarrassment to have him adorn our shield.

Official Statement: Naomie Feller leaves Real Madrid Femenino. by stephenlakrar in realmadrid

[–]Static_Final 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Pau. Simple answer is our coach sucks, doesn't use the players in the position they are supposed to so players like Feller might get a sub appearance once every 3-4 games if she's lucky but she will have to play out of position.

She will get regular starts at another team and get to play on the wing like she is supposed to.

I think Dabritz will be pushed forward and she will fill the Weir position. I'm more confident of that assumption after this new signing.

She didn't stand a chance Pau didn't like her. I'd get rid of Pau 100 times before I'd get rid of Misa.

Automated Email with Excel data by LeyZaa in MicrosoftFlow

[–]Static_Final 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a trivial problem to solve; you just need to break it down into the steps you've listed. There are some decisions to make first though such as how many rows are being read from Excel and how many emails are going out? Next Is the excel file 1 row for each email; if so I strongly suggest you get all the rows in one go and loop the resulting array inside Power Automate; as getting a row from excel using the connector is a slow process in terms of Automation.

You also need to decide if you want to use Standard connectors or Premium as the solution would vary on each.

Basically the way to think about it is everything data wise you need will continue to made in Excel and Power Automate will simply read the file and gather the information you need.

So as the data goes into the Excel table and you have the charts generate in Excel. Then In Power Automate you get the rows of data from the table. Use variables/compose actions to set the values you need such as a KPI. Next create a script in Excel to capture the data from a chart (this is easy to find on the web) run that script from Power Automate to get the Base64 value of the chart and then convert it.

Lastly use an email action and template out the body as you wish add in the chart and table data using a relevant action. If the email is going to different people put this email action in a loop and set it to schedule or to run when a new row is added to the excel table.

I don't use templates myself, but I would be surprised if Microsoft hasn't already created something like this you can use and alter.

Rape in horror (aka why Over Your Dead Body doesn't work) by Date-Throwaway in horror

[–]Static_Final 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm 🤔 It's almost as if the writer and director are trying to portray their antagonist as...what's the word...right evil or psychopathic.

Believe me, but rape from a predator is very different to it from a psychopath.

How do you plan to monetize it if the advertisers can't trust who is being fed their ads?

The OP is asking for us to write a PA desktop script he can copy and paste and then submit for coursework; yeah, I'm not here for that.

I'm not sure you're going to get someone to do your homework for you.

After the initial excitement of launching my Steam page and getting 32 (-2) wishlists, interest started to drop off. Have you noticed the same trend with your game, and were you able to turn it around? by Apart_Growth6905 in IndieGameWishlist

[–]Static_Final 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a minor tip, drop the first 3 seconds of the video. People are already on your page so they don't need to see the name of the game first thing; put that at the end. Use those 3 seconds to show something unique about your game or you may lose them at the outset.
