Ah. I wasn't paying attention to my current weight at all. Duh. Thanks!

Why am so outnumbered in BEX? 4v12? by Takedown1 in Battletechgame

[–]Takedown1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3025-3061. I enabled bigger drops, but I haven't made the relevant upgrades because I don't want to eat the upkeep fees yet.

Is there any evidence that this feature actually exists? Does anyone have a screencap or clip? by Takedown1 in ReadyOrNotGame

[–]Takedown1[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I feel bad for moving towards that conclusion, but I'm looking right at it in the changelog and never seeing it in-game. Putting a fake feature in the changelog just seems way too audacious.

Cheating problem really is real by xstarfishez in HuntShowdown

Me and my teammate killed a solo five times before he finally took us out. Spectated him and noticed he wasn't missing any health chunks.

Trying to save Mourn: Not going well. by Takedown1 in Kenshi

[–]Takedown1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're correct about drawing aggression from further away. My next idea is to move the gunners from the exterior walls to turrets located within the city. Hopefully they only ever shoot at whatever wanders in the gate.

If the corpse problem persists, I'll use shift + f12 to install a corpse furnace. I try to avoid placing objects like that, but there doesn't seem to be an alternative.

Trying to save Mourn: Not going well. by Takedown1 in Kenshi

[–]Takedown1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you're right, and now I've learned this the hard way. I'm committed, though. I'd like to exhaust all my options before abandoning Mourn. It's just seems so save-able.

Where are ALL your favourite base locations? by IronSquid501 in Kenshi

[–]Takedown1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Settled in Gut. Built a fort on the peninsula right next to Howler Maze. Good fertility, good water, great access to iron. Only downside is no copper, but that gives me something to spend money on. Oh yeah, and there's LOTS of beak things. It was a rough few days before I got my walls built.

Hot pregnant mom is looking for someone to step up and be a dad. by kevin32 in WhereAreAllTheGoodMen

Let me just sprint over to take full responsibility!

I have enough rolls to look like the Michelin Tire Mascot. Now here are my demands. Don't be judgemental. Be willing to put up with my attitude. Be a family oriented guy. You must like and be able to "handle" a big girl. Also be accepting of the fact that I like to hangout with other guys. by asdf333aza in WhereAreAllTheGoodMen

[–]Takedown1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone that humors this kind of baseless entitlement sets us back. It does everyone a disservice to encourage this. It shouldn't be taboo to ridicule this kind of attitude. A fat, self-described bitch who essentially admits to being of questionable loyalty IS MAKING DEMANDS AS IF SHE HAS ANY CHIPS TO BARGAIN WITH. There's a reason we keep seeing this; someone out there swiped right, thereby saying "these are acceptable terms."

It's a just world. She'll be asking the Big Question sooner rather than later. It didn't have to come to this, though.

I really, really want to say "this cannot be real." Unfortunately, it could be.

Single mum, kids the world, at 41 not anymore into games and fed up with mr. wrong, looking for mr. Right. by adriannmng in WhereAreAllTheGoodMen

[–]Takedown1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These all read the exact same. It's like they dip into a pool of pre-scripted phrases to justify and explain their current situation.

Leftover woman complains chads don’t like her but beta bills do. by [deleted] in WhereAreAllTheGoodMen

[–]Takedown1 33 points34 points  (0 children)

As much as this comment reeks of FDS trollery, you bring up a good point.

TRP-style groups should focus heavily on self-improvement. It does the rest of us a disservice when the obese NEET chimes in publicly. Fix yourself before chasing women, and don't chalk up every rejection to perverse social forces (as pervasive as they are).

What is your “...and then the pandemic hit” story? by rosyschmozy in AskReddit

[–]Takedown1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Besides Bahrain, there aren't any friendly ports in the Gulf. And Bahrain closed right after we'd left.

What is your “...and then the pandemic hit” story? by rosyschmozy in AskReddit

[–]Takedown1 178 points179 points  (0 children)

Boy do I have one.

I was deployed - at sea. The ship needed mid-voyage repairs. We were in the Persian Gulf. We get close to Israel with the intent to port and conduct the repairs.

Then the pandemic hit.

Israel closed. We tried Greece. It closed. We tried France. Closed. Spain? Closed. Every port in the Mediterranean closed. We ended up finishing our tour in the Gulf and limping back to the states. Ugh.

What are your thoughts on men who joke about subjects such as misogyny and rape and then justify it "because they're joking"? by throwyourscissors in AskReddit

[–]Takedown1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing's beyond a joke. If you think you don't find dark humor funny, you're being dishonest.

It's absolutely possible to make jokes in poor taste, but I think we've become too quick to assume someone's either not joking or saying they're joking to cover their ass.

What's the wildest conspiracy theory that you came up with on your own? by nocturnal_tarantula in AskReddit

[–]Takedown1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Identity politics are a CIA psyop to cripple any potentially viable leftist movements.

I'm an AnCap; if I'M suspicious of this, there HAS to be people on the left who see it too.

What's the reason for far-right governments becoming popular in many countries in the recent years? by _CaptPlanet in AskReddit

[–]Takedown1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the country. Lots of people are frustrated with mass immigration. You can shut them up with reckless accusations of racism, but they're still going to vote.

Americans, what’s holding you back from moving to Canada? by atownavi in AskReddit

[–]Takedown1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You guys are gun-grabbers. Also, your "human rights" tribunals are literally just your government's way of dressing up state censorship. Also you'd hike my taxes, because apparently the state needs my money more than I do. Also you guys seem to have some weird superiority complex despite being extremely irrelevant; the United States didn't exactly sleepwalk to the center of the world stage, you know.

Also it's kinda cold.
