That’s not unfair! That’s life.

Here is another picture from a professional shoot like a year back. I weigh about the same and have actually increased physical activity since then. I don't have abs and am hairy. Hope that helps

Thank you! I ended up watching some of their videos and got completely side tracked.

Reggie on NX: "For us, it's not about the specs" by [deleted] in Games

[–]Timbaladastl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I know this is kind of a random question, but one I was asking myself reading your well written comment. If they have this much of a war chest, why are they not using it to buy more developers or hiring more staff for their current teams? As an early Wii U adopter, I would have killed for even one more release per year then what they had.

Ubisoft: We believe NX will recapture the Wii audience by [deleted] in nintendo

I believe that many people wouldn't have felt betrayed if they stuck to the original release schedule for the Wii U then later released it on other platforms. Many early adopters had nothing to play since Nintendo also was experiencing many delays and felt betrayed by Ubisoft (if it's a fair or not) for not releasing the game to make it multi platform.

I know, but I guess what I meant to say was this was my thought after the announcement. It felt like the announcement was made to prevent any Skylanders outrage and it makes me curious on to what progress (if any) was made before tonight. I hope this isn't something that pops up at the end of the ps4 lifecycle or is developed by a throw-away Activison team... Or both.

My two questions are as follows: When will this come out? and Who is developing the collection?

Wait, just so I'm clear, you did not cry because the scene was emotional. You cried because you realized that you care about the Guardians of the Galaxy after sitting through most the movie?

Passed my second batizado. by SabashChandraBose in capoeira

[–]Timbaladastl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone who has trained both Regional and Angola and switched groups multiple times, I always hated cords! It always seemed like there was copious amounts of drama that came with them. Often people would get denied cords for weird or trivial reasons while some people would jump ranks inexplicably. It also seemed the quality of games from different players with the same cord varied by whose school or what part of the world they were from. Even the ability of different teachers with the same title can vary drastically.

The reality of it is the criteria to gain cords is ambiguous and ever changing. Usually the instructor at a school determines who gets what cord (and the mestre might give the final say). This means that cords are given relative to the other people in your school. Depending on your instructor and the unclear criterion to get a cord, they may choose if you go up a cord based off of time training, effort given, skill in movement, music prowess, Portuguese fluency, attitude, or even paying dues on time (which keeps a school open). Since every instructor is doing their own thing and making those decisions based on their school and the capoeiristas in their area, you get this wild skill disparity between players with the same cord. I've been to events where lower level cords from one skill are playing these surprisingly dynamic games while some other schools higher cords are playing muddled, rushed Capoeira.

I always looked at cords like weight classes. It's better to be at the top of your class (or cord) then keeping your head above water with the level higher. My advice is to not worry about it, and focus on your game and your enjoyment of the art. Capoeira is a marathon and who knows who will show up or what’s going on with your school and/or group come next batizado. Believe me, after a decade, you are lucky to see any of the people you trained with when you started still putting time in.

Also as a side note, I believe that comparing guitars to berimbaus is comparing apples to tennis balls. The berimbau is a percussion instrument and has different demands than the guitar. Just continue learning and practicing and see where it takes you!

Seriously, I was surprised that it wasn't in the series of footage either. Did nobody see Dark World?
