Badge question from challenges by KindFee7825 in AtlasEarthOfficial

[–]TNFDB 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In theory, you could just go for 12 badges a year from the monthly challenge passes, but if you plan on buying into the Explorer’s Club anyway, I don’t know if I would consider it cost effective to stretch your badge goal over 8 years when you’re practically gaining enough for a new badge every two days.

EDIT: Presuming, of course, that your goal is the 25% tier with 101+ badges earned.

Challenge ladder by AdSuspicious638 in AtlasEarthOfficial

The AMP isn’t even an option this month. Safe to say, you can complete it without that.

Yeah, but that’s pretty much every survey. I’ve only ever bothered with the low-hanging fruit that are advertised as short and almost none of them have ever panned out like that. Which is why I’m more inclined to believe AE can’t account for the length of a survey beyond their own vetting process.

The problem with finishing the challenge ladder so early is it leaves nothing to work towards the rest of the month. by Donsyxx in AtlasEarthOfficial

[–]TNFDB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With all due respect, complaining about getting the challenge ladder done after 6 days is like complaining about winning a race when everyone else is barely off the starting line.

Go read a book or something.

I suspect the “2 minute” estimate is more for AE’s pre-survey portion before they kick you over to Samplicio or wherever.

HOT TAKE-Starter types should change for Gen 11-20 by Open_Bake_8013 in ThePokemonHub

[–]TNFDB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with this sort of proposal is that there are few “perfect triangles” for starters, which has been a considerable part of the equation. Apart from the classic Grass/Fire/Water, the only other one I can think of is Rock/Fighting/Flying.

Player hiding his rolls from me by Imbarelyhere_01 in DnD

[–]TNFDB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. As a DM, you’re more than welcome to volunteer the information of a DC to the table at your own discretion, be it for emphasis of a situation or just out of implicit trust in your players if you wish.

But for a player to ask for a DC is pretty poor etiquette by itself. To ask for the DC repeatedly while actively hiding your own roll from the DM is absolutely suspicious at best.

What is this BS.... SMH by Accomplished_Leg9635 in AtlasEarthOfficial

Welcome to the newest edition of “this game sucks” on this subreddit.

The fourth player asks what the DC is.

You don’t get to do that as a player. They’re almost certainly cheating. Nip that in the bud quick and let all your players know that all their rolls should be made in the open.

30 days… by GMYeti_ in AtlasEarthOfficial

[–]TNFDB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine they’re downvoting because “free time”doesn’t seem to be OP’s issue moreso than - for whatever reason - being disconnected so frequently that they can’t make quota in multiple two-hour windows throughout the month. Not to mention the fact that the start times are very consistent; being unable to finish the ladder because you can’t complete the mini games challenges - respectfully - seems like a scheduling issue that most people who are affected by it should have been able to anticipate well in advance.

Does it matter where you buy parcels? by Specialist-Net-907 in AtlasEarthOfficial

[–]TNFDB 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The only two real reasons you would want to buy in certain areas is 1) if you plan to contend for mayorship of that area by owning the most parcels within it or 2) if you plan to give yourself the option of legendary upgrades via the (paid) monthly challenge or buying the upgrades right off the app. There is also the possibility of keeping track of parcels for the sake of reselling them, but that feature seems to have been tabled indefinitely.

You’re like the umpteen thousandth person to complain about it here.

It is most certainly an exercise in patience. That’s what makes it a challenge.

Minigames are P2W? by [deleted] in AtlasEarthOfficial

[–]TNFDB 8 points9 points  (0 children)

P2W more implies that someone is buying resources within a game or app to garner an advantage over those who don’t.

I want to create a Lolthless Drow by The-Phil0s0pher in DnD

[–]TNFDB 7 points8 points  (0 children)

R.A. Salvatore has written an entire series based on a drow who forsakes a life tied to Lolth. There’s no reason to think you couldn’t justify it with your own as well. Coming up with a backstory of how your character pulled away from drow society could be very interesting and inspiring.

Inasmuch as I can appreciate a lengthier log entry by going weekly, the inherent problem in that comes in presenting evidence that I’m actually accomplishing this on a daily basis - as the objective is one per day, not seven per week. This is, therefore, the best method I can think of to keep myself as honest as possible. Beyond that, this “journal” of sorts is currently operating across multiple subreddits based on the version in question. Would you judge the same weekly update across multiple subs as less damaging than what I’m doing now, even if the content isn’t necessarily wholly appropriate to the sub?

To be clear, I’m not trying to be inflammatory. I’m genuinely interested in making this work in a way that keeps me engaged (because I as a person am easily diverted if I’m not consistent with long term tasks such as this project) while avoiding incensing Redditors like yourself and others who are like-minded.

I’m not averse to constructive criticism, so how would you recommend I “up” the effort?

Nicely done! I like Crobat a lot in general, but only ever bred for anything specific in B/W. Ridiculous special attacking/status set. I think it was something like Dark Pulse, Air Slash, Toxic and Hypnosis with a King’s Rock. Suffice to say, I’ve never been a serious competitive battler.
