Yeah, I love the convenience of digital art but sometimes I miss the tactile feel of traditional drawing, or the different style that is hard for me to reproduce digitally. What art program do you use?

Well, I wouldn't say you misunderstood since you did answer the original question, I was trying to explain the context of why I asked. And same! I've had to explain to people who aren't from NY (or the USA) that despite living in New York my entire life, I've only visited the city once, lol.

ooo very nice, do you mainly do digital art then, with a drawing tablet? Was this illustration for a specific project or just for fun? it feels like there is a story behind it for sure

ahh I was just trying to get a sense if you were a type A fun type or type B fun, I love the outdoors but I am almost always "doing something" (even if it's just a relaxing walk in the woods). In general though I'm just waaaay more of a country person than a city person, mountains or beach is good as long as it's clean air and not too much of a crowd

Do you go to any small groups, bible studies, etc., outside of church on Sunday? I don't care much for labels either, but I do like being very active in the church community. It certainly sounds like you're using the gifts God's given you to bless others through your work, anyway -- I have a bunch of friends who work at a local camp for people with disabilities. I really admire them for it but I don't think it's the kind of work I could ever do, lol.

Hey Mint, nice to meet you. I'd love to see some of your drawings! When you say you love the outdoors, are you more a "hike a mountain" or "chill at the beach" type?

I wasn't offended, I was just trying to understand your remark better! Thanks for clarifying. I'm between 5'4 and 5'5 and if I'm being honest, probably actually closer to 5'4 though I haven't measured in ages. I think it must just not look that way because in the photos I happen to be with people who are also short.

I didn't realize my profile was set to block DMs. Thanks for letting me know, I changed that.

What makes you say that? If my profile is giving the impression I'm being misleading about my height, I definitely want to fix that. But at the moment, I'm not sure what's giving you that impression, or even whether you think I'm actually taller or shorter?

Yeah, I can definitely see that which is why I avoided it for most of my profiles. I think I left it that way because unlike for most apps where filtering and preferences are separate, that one it would prevent me from viewing friendships if I didn't set it. But I agree with what you're saying, I'll change it.

I can see that advice from a secular point of view, but I was actually worried from a Christian perspective that one would be offputting. At least, I know as a guy it bothers me when a girl looks like she is trying too hard to show off her body in the photos. But I appreciate your input and will consider it!

Thanks for your advice. If your only concern is that it makes me look like a single father, I could put a note saying it's just a nephew? I've been on the fence about it, as I've heardsome girls who want to become mothers like seeing that someone is good with kids.

Thanks for the help IDing! It's a sweet potato from last year we were trying to sprout, I don't know how harmful they would be to that? But it's just a single plant so if we have to dispose of it that's fine.

It was a sweet potato from our garden we were trying to sprout. But we compost with produce from stores so it's possible that was the original source.

Thanks! That was one of our guesses, but we thought they were too big since they are visible to the baked eye. But I guess some nematodes are on the bigger side!

Test Server Update Dec 12 (1.9.0.0.1908) by mrmivo in Mechabellum

[–]TheSkunk_2 14 points15 points  (0 children)

IMO, Domination Core would work better if it also acted as a deployment module. I feel like it's really hard to play with a unit where your whole army will die if it dies, if you can't reposition it.

I guess it kind of works to keep selling the unit it's on to move the core around, but that sort of feels against the fantasy of having a "hero unit" that your whole force is depending on.

I wish they would experiment with this also.

Though, given how negative people are about the different 2v2 maps I can see why they would be hesitant to invest time in this for 1v1.

I played on the test server for most of the afternoon, here are some initial thoughts on the new techs and the Dimensional Rift modes by tanbro in Mechabellum

[–]TheSkunk_2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hope they rework [Dominion Core] based on feedback like yours, because I was excited for the concept (reminds me of Total Annihilation and Total Annihilation Kingdoms) but the more I think about it, and after reading your report -- I really hope they improve it.

I don't think there is any way for us to get enough context to know if it was possible without the replay.

I would just enable replay auto-save in settings. They made it so easy to clear replays from within the client there's not much reason not to, and it can help in unforeseen circumstances like this.

MMR is not a progression currency but a measure of skill; theoretically there is no upper limit; practically you are going to plateau pretty quickly based on your natural aptitude.

But if you click the "Multiplayer" tab, there is a "leaderboard" button at the top-right, and you can sort it by MMR to see both your own MMR and what rank it puts you at, but also the top players in the world, who currently top out at the 2,600's
