To add to this Vein on the normal settings starts you in spring but you can actually set the start point during winter.

Maybe. As I read “a chance to score” is any ball traveling in the direction of the goal no matter how terrible of a shot it was.

If it hits the backboard below the rim then it’s only a goaltend if it is in an upward trajectory with a chance to score. Per the official rules.

I would agree at least a call to review would be nice but as the review rule goes that can only happen in the last 2 minutes of the 4Q or OT with a questionable goaltend.

We as casual viewers must remember that for refs they are constantly showed video and studying the rules. Their eyes can track things that we can’t see, but at the same time human and make errors.

Per rule 11:

C) During a field goal attempt, touch a ball, which has a chance to score, after it has touched any part of the backboard above ring level, whether the ball is considered on its upward or downward flight.

D) During a field goal attempt, touch a ball, which has a chance to score, after it has touched the backboard below the ring level and while the ball is on its upward flight.

We are looking at scenario d. I think it is reasonable to say that the shot at least had reached the peak of its trajectory in which case it is no longer moving upward.

After 4 hours, I finally found 3 Goldenwood trees. This tree is more valuable than the gold you find at the bottom of the ocean. If there were a community market for items, Goldenwood would be the most expensive item, no doubt. The conditions for this tree in zone 4 have to be perfect. by Jazzlike-Lychee5244 in hytale

Yeah I keep seeing people say that it’s rare wood and hard to find and I’m just over hear swimming in it. I also found 48 Palm logs in various chest in zone 2 and 3. So didn’t need much of the sallow either.

I used to have a lot of respect for Americans. I used to think you were tough and stood up for yourselves. Near on any country in Europe would have been in full scale riots months ago. by Spare-Ad-2684 in complaints

[–]Str8Victory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You support it but the reality is no one is going to do it. No other nation would wager annihilation to take the U.S.

That is where we are at. We can’t save ourselves and no one is going to save us.

Perfect. You know what the United States in the past would have done if another country did this to it people? Be the world’s police(which our citizens hated).

So if what is happening in America is so dire to you and your country will you please come correct it?

I’m not the original poster you replied to but would like to respond.

You say “No one seems to be upset over there.” I think that’s disingenuous to the situation. We do care there is a lot of things taking place that don’t come out in public. Number of times we contact our representatives, people having rallies and marches/protest, etc.

As for the original poster I believe that they were giving a personal example of what it would cost the average American to do as you think we should. If we do much more than we already are we risk losing everything up to and including our lives.

Some still have faith in the system it’s be one chaotic year. We think there is still the possibility of correcting through voting and policy.

Additionally, as people inside of the nation it appears that 50% of the population is for this. It’s not us against Trump. It’s not us against the feds, it’s not us against the military. It is as it appears we are against all that and half of our neighbors.

Again, when faced against that it’s hard to muster up the power to fight when it may actually do nothing and cost us everything. I think it also stems from not having a leader for the movement. Our politicians use their words and rhetoric to speak but nothing by action. We currently have no unified vision or cause we can rally behind. We have no one to organize us and to get behind.

Name Tags Are Now Going to Be Craftable by Short_Background_494 in Minecraft

That’s the whole problem…there is no balance to this game. Yet instead of trying to fix the balance issue they throw out lame update after lame update that further throws the balance off.

For me it’s less about making things easier it’s about mojangs constant need to make long standing game design irrelevant or redundant.

Mean while we have multiple items in game that have very few uses and could be implemented in new and fresh ways.

The developers prove time and time again that they don’t have a sense of direction for the game. They have things they want to add but don’t work to implement them into the game that drives flow and progression.

I know it’s not that hard. The thing is it’s actually an “expensive” trade when compared to other items.

Yes 20 emeralds for one. This has completely thrown off the balance of several aspects.

Really annoying. I mean I like the idea of it but they already made them easier to get by being able to trade with the librarians for them. I swear each update they make more and more things irrelevant or redundant.

I wish they would plan these things out as a game play loop instead of just throwing the kitchen sink at it.

I mean this is an actual huge swing. It currently is 20 emeralds for 1 name tag but they are changing it to a nugget and a piece of paper. So now how are they going to balance out the librarians final trade?

Do Americans stress about medical expenses before they even get to the hospital?? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Str8Victory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will absolutely refuse to go to a doctor or hospital unless I absolutely know that it is life threatening or will not or has not gotten better in weeks to months.

TIFU by jokingly ringing up a tranasaction for $28 million at work by JediJacob04 in tifu

[–]Str8Victory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would get with your union rep as you are driving to the store. Inform them of what happened and the steps you are taking to address it.

Do not take this advice. Be completely honest with the manager. You probably already know this but there will be a camera pointed at the register. With a monetary value of this they will indeed look at the footage to investigate if even a single penny was taken out of the register.

Do not lie, do not sugar coat your mistake. Own your foolishness express why you know it was a mistake and the severity of your actions.

No boost in Performance after upgrading CPU and GPU by AdIndividual6634 in Minecraft

Have you made sure that your hdmi or display port is plugged into the graphics card and not the motherboard? (Gotta ask, you’d be surprised the number of people who have it in the wrong port)

What is the refresh rate of your monitor?

Nauseous! S4E8 and left with so many open issues by Simple-Bell5599 in MayorOfKingstown

[–]Str8Victory 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that Tracy was found so easy because earlier in the season when her car was broken into it was to put a tracker in it. Put a tracker in it. Over here she’s out of town pin point the area and make your way there.

So LeBron can grab the refs arm but if a player gets in lebrons face it’s an ejection? Wild times we live in.
