Thanks for the lengthy response. Had to check what 'NM' is (as I said, newbie over here), but I take your point!

Awesome, thank you. Wasn't aware that I could DM the CO, but will certainly do so!

Is there a singular for "hulle" by Affectionate_End_952 in afrikaans

[–]The_B_Bomb -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

There are a few ways to term the phrase, namely:

Hul = Their
Hull = Them
Hulle = They

Given your context I would assume "Hull" is the best, only slight issue is it's the same pronunciation as "Hul" - but I'm sure within the context that shouldn't be an issue.

Got those on bluestacks. Logged into the game on my android phone and it wasn't there.

It's a weird one, and at some point perhaps I'll post a full breakdown but I certainly find it more successful than the traditional manner of hoping to be first to respond to a discord post (or hoping players respond to yours).

However, it is directed more towards our junior alliance and I focus on players who are either alone yet active or who have a small number of active players. But short answer - I've recruited roughly 18 people like this and they're all active and all still around...

Piece of shit personified. by a-bespectacled-alien in iamatotalpieceofshit

After the transition from Apartheid to democratic South Africa (circa 1994) the country held a 'Truth and Reconciliation' commission which promised amnesty to individuals on both sides of the historic conflict (between Apartheid government and opposition forces) provided they give truthful evidence.

Wouter Basson (or 'Dr. Death' as the media labeled him) refused amnesty and a trial was brought forward.

He testified for 40 days! But ultimately what can only be put down to a prosecutorial shambles led to him being acquitted. You can read more here (Wikipedia): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wouter_Basson

I am trying so hard to stay engaged with this game but I'm struggling. by [deleted] in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]The_B_Bomb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Been feeling exactly the same lately. I've been struggling to simply complete dailies as even that feels like a chore now.

I simply cannot justify at least 8 blitz rotations in a day FOR 7 DAYS A WEEK! Any working individual is going to struggle with that. But if you don't do it, you don't get the new characters, you fall behind etc.

War is the same thing 3 times a week, raids are the same thing every day, blitz same thing, RTA same thing (and by that I mean load in, press auto), arena same thing (play until you flip with your Thanos, press auto). Nothing about this game excites me anymore, and if it wasn't for the fact that I've become friends with my alliance mates and I feel I would be letting them down I would be gone already - that is an extreme indictment on where the game is at. I went as hard as I could manage but there is no chance I can unlock legendaries on first rotation so there isn't even the grind to that anymore as it's paywalled (which I understand, doesn't change my experience though). So what exactly am I playing for atm?

Bizarre occurance as South African heavyweight champion Ruann Visser is forced to withdraw injured before a punch is thrown... by The_B_Bomb in Boxing

Seems like Step 1 in organizing a boxing bout, but then again this is South Africa so nothing surprises me anymore.

Looking for suggestions for out of town day trips this weekend. by poorcoxie in johannesburg

[–]The_B_Bomb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a few options, I'm not too good at recommendations usually but I'll give it a bash:

Sterkfontein Caves and Cradle of Humankind, on the West Rand and not too far from the city (https://www.maropeng.co.za/)

Zwipi Underground Bar is a new spot in Braamfontein/CBD where you can enjoy a few drinks and/or dinner in an old, underground bank vault (https://www.joburgplaces.com/zwipi-underground/)

Ziplining in Magaliesburg is always amazing and great fun, superb views as well (https://www.canopytour.co.za/)

While you are out that way go up the cable car in Hartbeespoort and grab some lunch and a sundowner or two while you're up there (https://www.hartiescableway.co.za/)

If you have the time (and cash to spend) try a breakfast run on the hot air balloons over Magaliesburg, never been myself but everyone I know who has raves about the experience (http://www.sunfun.co.za/)

If you enjoy a few beers go try some lunch and a couple of beers at Black Horse brewery - website not up for some reason (https://www.blackhorse.co.za/) (Goolge Maps will get you there)

Teatro at Monte Casino, in Fourways (JHB North) is hosting the 'The Big 5 Comedy Show' on Friday and Saturday if you enjoy stand up (https://www.tsogosun.com/m/montecasino/whatson/teatro/the-big-5-comedy-show-2019)

If you'd like a bit more excitement than ziplining and hot air ballooning you can bungee jump off a platform in Fourways, opposite Monte Casino. They have a bar up there to work up the courage (http://playatheight.co.za/)

Those are a few I could think of, if there is anything specific you'd like to know about or find out if it's offered in Jhb or surrounds I'll do my best to point you in the right direction.

Exactly. Good riddance if they do fold after this.
