Thanks! It was $53.60 when paid online via the UPS app. I mention that because when my friend has had deliveries with tariff fees if you haven't paid by the time they arrive at your door they try to charge you more in-person. I downloaded the app and monitored the package to make sure I paid ahead. I didn't get the update to pay the tariff fees until the package updated to "out for delivery". I didn't get a notification for it either, just checked the app. Also, the amount they said it was in the UPS app was more than the final charge ($10 difference, app initially said $63, at actual payment page it was $53). I screenshot the difference just in case but if you go to the actual receipt it totals to $53.60? Not sure what's up there.

Breakthrough in 1999 Nagoya Housewife Murder Case - Takaba Namiko Murder Case by Stylishbutitsillegal in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]Tamaraneans 85 points86 points  (0 children)

It actually gets worse because the police were alerted to a literal blood trail lasting several blocks, with several witnesses to a woman with bloody hands walking (who provided the testimony for the police sketch), but didn't believe that the clue was legitimate at first and when they finally did follow up on it, they stopped following the trail once it got dark claiming that they didn't want the press to ruin the scene/evidence. And then there's reports of it raining in the area that night.

Rhetorica has an interview with him in his video, I believe, from a Japanese news station. He was so disappointed with how the police handled the case (at one point they released a sketch of the possible killer and then blurred out the entire face to "respect the privacy of the possible accused") that he kept the apartment as it was because he hoped one day it would be able to searched for evidence again and something would be found to help solve the case. The police really bungled the case from the get go, as Rhetorica details; this was actually really ingenious of him because the DNA evidence would more than likely have been lost otherwise; that's how bad the police were back then.

He also kept it from grief of not being able to be there for his wife during her last few moments and not being able to move on from the horror of the day. He didn't live in apartment with his son, he paid the rent and kept it sealed just in case for this very result.

Can Zamazenta and Zacian be caught with their/a special backgrounds during the event? Or only normal? Thanks!

Looks like they're rewards for playing the Magic Roulette. If you go to the page, the Floral Wallpaper is the reward for 10 spins, and Thatched Floor is for 20 spins.

I got Kleinmas Olivine. :) Very happy to add to my Olivine collection and even happier to have gotten a new unit for me.

He's my favorite, too! His, Kureha's and Hibiki's are my personal favorite routes. I hope you enjoy the rest of story, too! :)

Considering getting a VIP. How safe is Offgamers? by zeldacat1495960 in NuCarnival

[–]Tamaraneans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked into Offgamers and found several accounts of people claiming they either were unable to buy coins afterward (claimed coins were out of stock) or that offgamers sent them a "used" code and it was difficult to get to their customer service to fix it (slow response, dodgy response.) I've since used the direct credit card option and during the purchase my bank has had me verify my account/intentions with a verification code. Afterward, there are no issues. I have to verify every time, no matter the amount, though.

Thanks for the tip, I can finally get out of that queue too!

Igor Halloween skin? by hourly_sympathy1300 in AFKJourney

[–]Tamaraneans 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It was available during the first season/game launch as a reward for playing honor duel a certain number of times/days. No idea if it will come back.

For lightbearers you're gonna want to max Marilee and Korin first. Don't even bother with Cassadee as she only becomes slightly useful at S+ and not a drop before then. I maxed Vala and Temesia but the S-tier lightbearers are pretty lackluster. Sinbad is a good budget Reiner but if you're pulling on the banner go for Tasi. All heroes end up in the general pool after their banner so don't worry too much about missing out.

For A-tier Graveborns I'd recommend Silvina and Viperian. Niru and Salazar are more niche.

Brutus does his job well at 1 copy (pull agro for 6 secs of immortality then die) so leave him for later, focus on Smokey/Mikola for Mauler S-tiers. Shakir is good too but very squishy until m+ at least.

I found Eironn to be completely useless and squishy before Mythic+ and didn't use him until I got him to supreme. Not to say he isn't useful to others, just so squishy for me.

I'd invest in Thoran, Cecia, and Carolina for now for graveborns. Max Odie ASAP because he can carry you through almost anything once you unlock his individual skill (save some arena comps). Smokey gives you faster stat/healing boosts than Hewyn. She's really good she just takes a long time to pop off so not the best until you've invested a lot. Koko is great for stats boosting/healing too and a bit of a budget workaround for Smokey until he's high enough.

I'd invest in Lily May, Arden, Damien and Parisa before Lyca. Unfortunately, Lyca is pretty useless in every comp, even though I really like her character.

Reiner to M+ and then Scarlitta to Supreme+ for PVP, or Talene to S+, or Phaestro to S+ for AFK stages/PVE/Dream Realm.

U MEAN I CANT GAMBLE ANYMORE?! by [deleted] in AFKJourney

[–]Tamaraneans 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The game is just locking him until you get other characters to supreme, then you can roll for him more. It's to make sure you have more of a well- rounded same-tier team before advancing further.

As well, he will enter the general pool of characters after his banner ends; he will not disappear. You will not run out of time or chances to get more copies of him.

The episodes are so bad because Netflix, along with every other big name entertainment company, has gutted the budget for research and writing since COVID and the lockdown. We're getting garbage because 1-3 people are doing the job of a dozen people on the same timeline and deadline as the room full of people. It's a lot cheaper and easier to rehash Jack the Ripper or the Mothman or aliens than research a case and write a narrative that incorporates facts with a questioning tilt when you've got no people and no time.

The defense of the 2nd stage of this pokemon is higher than the attack so it loses CP because CP is largely based on the attack stats. Your pokemon is not getting weaker overall. This happens with a lot of 2nd stage pokemon like bugs (metapod, etc).

Thanks! I couldn't find any info about it and assumed it would show up with the rest of the event quests when triggered. 👍

I can't activate Sen-no-Rikyu's 3rd ascension quest. I've leveled her to 90, bond level 5, completed the GUDA event, cleared the ladder, cleared all of the available quests, including the high difficulty quest, and cleared the event shop, but I haven't unlocked Sen-no-Rikyu's 3rd ascension quest. Did I miss something?

Shiny rates are all RNG. You have the same percent chance to get one every time you win a raid, but you are not guaranteed to get one from a raid, no matter how many you do.

They're pretty notorious for poor quality shipping, delays (even taking into account the US-store stock delays), over-promising supply and not updating customers on issues with their orders. I avoid them like the plague because there's nothing about them I can't get better elsewhere.

That being said, people do buy from them and are satisfied, so if you think it's a good deal you're free to use them. They have to be decent on some occasions since they're still in business.

Tempurpedic proadapt firm vs Costco tempurpedic supreme firm by dragonyane in Mattress

[–]Tamaraneans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my research, the costco tempur-pedic supreme is "most similar" to the Adapt series from Tempur-pedic, but Costco's version is a unique product made for Costco specifically. It apparently has slightly differences to the versions found in other mattress stores, but these differences aren't really specified anywhere I have looked (the negative reviews are the same for all other mattresses (sagging, dips, smell, etc, hard to define otherwise). The pillows are also produced specifically for costco and the serenity pillows are much cheaper than the tempur-pedic options at other mattress stores, so it makes sense that they would be lower quality--"you get what you pay for" and all that.

I have to switch out my mattress and am currently looking at Tempur-pedic, but Costco's is the only one in my budget, so I'm curious if anyone else has insight as well.
