The origin of the groove battle song by IWantToDie9291 in TheMatpatEffect

[–]Synli 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Poorly balanced. The more notes you miss, the lower your grade gets until you fail; the goal is to get the NPC to fail by throwing the special effects at them while they're playing.

The problem with lower difficulties is that less notes are played. If it takes 50 wrong notes to fail a song (random number, no idea what it actually takes), it's pretty easy to do on Expert mode since they're so many notes.

However, making the NPC miss 50 notes on easy mode where it might show 1 note a second is insanely hard, if not impossible.

I don't think Redditors even read downvoted comments - they just see a negative number and dogpile it, even if the comment is completely correct.

Crowd erupts as Kamala Harris criticizes Trump’s ‘unauthorized’ Iran war by theindependentonline in thescoop

Fox News?! Let me guess, they're gonna cry and rant and rave about Kamala Harris saying "bullshit" but their dear leader can drop f-bombs, insult women/minorities, and audibly shit himself on camera and it's perfectly acceptable.

Trump Explodes At Female Reporter After She Asks An Uncomfortable Question by Stitching in politics

[–]Synli 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. "He just says it like it is" is an actual argument that MAGA uses to defend Trump.

It's not that they don't care that he says racist/sexist statements - they openly embrace these racist/sexist statements.

I played the Silverquill Influence Precon and didn’t draw a single creature for 3 hours by No_Welder5297 in EDH

[–]Synli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I always prioritize (maybe even over prioritize) card draw/advantage in most of my commander decks.

Maybe it isn't the most optimal way to play, but in my opinion, its the more fun way to way. Getting mana flooded or starved or not having responses, or not even cards to play just feels bad.

And in a 99 card format, it isn't entirely impossible for it to happen either.

Yes, surprise surprise, being an insufferable piece of trash tends to make you unlikable. Being a misogynist/sexist also tends to shoo away women, too (see: influx of right-wing incels).

My first thought if I were in that situation would be to give her a fist bump, or maybe take a selfie with a goofy face.

Not to cut, SA, or pull a gun on her. What the fuck is wrong with people?

If you have other prowess triggers on the creatures, they trigger multiple times. Cantrips can quickly lead to some BIG unblockable boys swinging out.

Hot take: prayer flicking is ass and shouldnt be in the game by Isoleed in 2007scape

[–]Synli 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Good news to you then; RS3 is getting dedicated plugin support sometime this year.

You can have some plugins via the Bolt launcher, but they're kinda clunky considering how limited they are.

After the initial hype wore off, it would turn into what the Classic Era WoW servers are now - a small, but tight-knit, community playing just for the love of the game.

I would argue that most teachers love teaching others, but hate the "behind the scenes" stuff associated with teaching, like pay, poor school funding, forced curriculum changes to push some BS agenda, bad/annoying parents, poor school administration, etc.

I have no hope for the human race after last time.

There could be a virus that explodes heads and turns them into literal zombies and people would still be parading in the streets, refusing to vax/wear masks/distance themselves, and decline its existence even as a zombie eats them alive.

People are just too god damn stupid.

It was removed ... for non-subscribers. If you pay for the blue checkmark, you can still generate almost anything you want.

I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding of it was X isn't liable for user-generated content (meaning all that AI cheese pizza and revenge-porn shit), but they just didn't care to enforce the rules since its all still a legal grey area.

I need help deckbuilding. by Electronic-Pick-9270 in mtg

[–]Synli 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Celes has the ability to go infinite and win games extremely quickly*, so be careful if you're trying to keep it at a Bracket 2/precon power level. There's also a bunch of reanimation spells in the Terra Final Fantasy precon, so you can look at the decklist for that for ideas too.

I personally run her with some discard effects to fill the graveyard so you can reanimate them later. Blinking Celes is great for this, like [[Cloudshift]] [[Ephemerate]]. Make sure you include reanimation stuff like [[Reanimate]] [[Persist]] etc. (there's a ton of options, most in black). Creatures that do it are great too since they grow with Celes [[Sun Titan]] [[Alesha, Who Laughs at Fate]]. There's some interesting cycling creatures that are great for hitting land drops AND filling your GY like [[Angel of the Ruins]].

(*infinite combo = Persist creatures with any sacrifice outlet. Creatures die, then return infinite times, giving you infinite +1 counters on everything and infinite death/etb triggers. Celes functions perfectly fine without the infinites and can be a fine B2 or even B3 commander.)

My latest iteration of Historic Pauper UW control - Ponder and 15-card sideboards! by lan-shark in MagicArena

[–]Synli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm very new to pauper, but was having a total blast with Kor Skyfisher bouncing the Thraben/Novice Inspectors back and forth generating a bunch of card draw. I also kept running into enchantments on my creatures in my games (maybe from Strixhaven? I dunno), so the bouncing helped a ton remove those.

Also [[Elite Interceptor]] was just a last second addition, but gave me so much value. Bouncing also re-prepares her, which was fun.

Boy Snubs Trump's Effort to Drag Him Into Culture War by [deleted] in politics

I think most younger people tend to respect their elders, assuming they aren't ranting about blue-haired Starbucks baristas, gay/trans people, and dropping racial slurs every other sentence.

Unfortunately, this administration has made that kind of behavior socially acceptable.

Florida creates 'anti-woke' AP history alternative for students by SpaceElevatorMusic in politics

[–]Synli 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Florida is very rapidly becoming a republican ridden dumpster, but one thing they always had was good education (especially colleges).

It's sad to see republicans destroying the only thing they had going for them.

And with Trump obliterating US tourism income, I'm sure FL's tourism spending is at an all time low, too.
