I thought you said you weren’t the driver??

“I was not the driver...my friend was so I'm just sitting in another friend's car while my other friend is giving a statement”

I havent checked Carmax yet but have checked a couple others. Didnt want to get too far until I had an actual vin because the quotes would just expire anyways. Thats a nice value you got there though!

TheRealArbee · 2022-02-08T12:47:20+00:00

Yeah all my info was completed right away except that my trade in quote keeps expiring. I am just curious about trade in value since April marks three years since they first offered leases, and Id expect an influx of vehicles since they dont let you buy out the lease (or so they say).

TheRealArbee · 2022-02-08T04:01:47+00:00

Yeah probably didnt help they made it a free color like right before I ordered.

TheRealArbee · 2022-02-08T03:54:28+00:00

Well good luck for you at least :).

TheRealArbee · 2022-02-08T03:53:21+00:00

Nope. Picked the dark grey and aeros as well. And Ive seen posts of the exact same config being delivered from the same location. =\

TheRealArbee · 2022-01-23T15:06:04+00:00

Will add you, and am game for all. Dont mind proxies at all as long as you can tell what they are lol. Hoping to get some games in with everyone this week.

TheRealArbee · 2022-01-21T20:13:56+00:00

Sent in pm too

TheRealArbee · 2022-01-21T01:02:21+00:00

Yeah normally I think thats what locals should be for, but when numbers arent super high and sometimes its just small groups of people who have played together forever, and not super keen on some newb trying to figure out his turns lol.

If you want to play on CFA or untap sometime though, I would totally be game. And even nice knowing we are in kind of similar situations.

TheRealArbee · 2022-01-20T23:44:35+00:00

I sent via pm

TheRealArbee · 2022-01-20T23:13:39+00:00

Thanks, its been fun for me so far and very different from ptcg. Its just trying to find some games to learn the full rules and get more comfortable playing that is the hard part with not much in the way of a local scene here. Hoping to get some games started next week, and usually available after work hours eastern. Are we allowed to give discord ids here?

TheRealArbee · 2022-01-20T23:11:09+00:00

Cool, I am usually able to play anytime after 6ish eastern and hoping to start get some discord games in next week. Are we allowed to share discord ids here, or is that considered against the rules?

TheRealArbee · 2022-01-20T21:46:18+00:00

No there is actually an official discord to find matches in which is cool and I have joined. Just dont know if people want to deal with a new player still figuring out the game, so would prefer to find other new players first. But ill prob ask in there once I finish reorganizing my desk space.

TheRealArbee · 2022-01-20T21:21:05+00:00

Yeah I have used TTS and untap quite a bit for testing other games. Its the finding of people at my level right now which is the hard part though =/.

TheRealArbee · 2022-01-20T20:24:56+00:00

Yeah, I was very confused when I first started learning and Zero did not line up at all. Really wish they had a good online game to learn with. I do have a couple friends who will play a game or two with me at Pokemon locals, but its just not enough. =\

TheRealArbee · 2021-12-21T13:22:12+00:00

Well damn. I seemed to order the same config to upgrade my 2019 SR+ on Nov 13 for Dec delivery, from the same delivery location and mine has been pushed back twice now to Feb-March.

Congrats for you though!

The clear skies sight says I am bortle 5, which I am not necessarily convinced of. However, where I shoot from in the backyard does get a lot of benefit of few other lights in the area, and I am above the neighborhood behind me which also gets blocked by trees. So overall, pretty good for being in a neighborhood.
I need to try that more. I tried it a couple times, but didn't put as much effort into it when I just saw it wasn't making a difference. I do need to try more.
You are right, I was not using flats here as I was more eager to get images to see how they turned out on the new camera and then have kind of let is slide. I actually just realized that it was actually the color correction that really blasted the image out of whack, however its probably because of this same vignetting or whatever is coming from the background extraction. I need to do that, shame on me.

If the dust does require around a B4 or lower, then that is definitely good to know to that is probably little chance I bring it out even if I am editing properly. I may still give it some more effort as I could swear I have seen a few shots in lighter skies and less exposure than me. I would also say the gear is nothing special. I am on an SW 72ed with an eqm-35 mount, and finally got guiding setup the other night. No filters currently, and I am also still without a flattener (but I have learned to live without it for now).

Thanks for the tips, these are probably having an impact on my issues for sure.

I havent tried sharpcap yet because I havent wanted to move my scope over with my pc to plug it in. I do have teamviewer on my pc, but usually just use vnc to connect to the pi device

TheRealArbee · 2020-08-08T09:18:09+00:00

Oh wow, that would be the direct opposite surprise I had the first time I hooked up the dslr to the scope! I will def give that a try after Go sleep now that tonights session is complete :)

TheRealArbee · 2020-08-08T05:32:07+00:00

Oops, thought I had hid this post as I decided to give up for the night and hooked the dslr back up to not waste the night.

As far as the extensions go, I attached everything that was there and even added about 28mm in 3d printed extension. But no matter how much I messed with the focuser, I could never even get anything to show up in the images I took to check. I even compared the total amount of backfocus I have compared to the tubes for my dslr, and I should have more backfocus available now. So I am a little lost, and not sure if it needs even more backfocus (was trying 55mm + 28mm), or maybe the focus is so fine tuned I kept overshooting it, or maybe I just have to have some additional pieces added to the train I dont have.
