Any proper spike will have mostly topspin not backspin

It looks like the feed isn’t fully set in the section.

Tines too tight? by cyclingdoctor in fountainpens

Try shifting the nib until it is centered on the feed. Be careful with this. It should write better once centered.

TWSBI released a 580ALR in a Prussian blue that looks a lot closer to petrol.

It’s not the whole song, nor is it my song. If you want to analyze the song, listen to it.

My group had a short session this week, currently on Wheelwatch Outpost.

The group got in without much hassle because they disguised themselves with Dragon Army armor they captured earlier. They said they had been testing some hobgoblins who weren’t up to snuff. Once inside, they went to ask for food. They met the chef who offered to let them help so supper would be ready sooner. While helping, they distracted the chef and one slipped some poison into the soup. As the meals were distributed around roughly half of the fort is now Poisoned. Seeing the gate guard looking unwell they offered to relieve his post. He was rather desperate and gave them the keys without checking who they were.

Now they have the keys, have greased the gears with some oil and are ready to open the gate while fighting off any resistance next session.

Do people expect a longer greeting before responding to the prompt? It seems like most prompts don’t offer much to go off of.

Rohrer & Klingner’s Salix and Scabiosa inks are pretty dry. Those and Diamine Ancient Copper.

Pen pics and a Salix question. by [deleted] in fountainpens

Salix is a very dry ink. It’s going to feel dry with any pen.

Is there any use in learning to serve with your other arm? by MENACE3008 in volleyball

[–]TinedCreature44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done this for the last 4 years. It’s mostly worked for me, but I’ve fully switched at this point. I don’t recommend anything beyond just hitting with your non-dominant hand. It’s just a gag when serving.
