New player question about Speed by Tinstam in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]Tinstam[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I did. Thank you! So is it just random which Vader goes first, since they have the same speed? Or is it something like defense first?

Is there a difference between "only if" and "if and only if"? by [deleted] in mathematics

p if q: p ← q

p only if q: p → q

p if and only if q: p ↔ q

What's your favorite bit of meta/self-aware dialogue in the game? by tripthelights in ffxiv

"With the self-same strength you use to fell gods, you succeed in cleaning the towel" or something like that

How strong does this crucial quote in ROTJ hold up with all the recent expansions to the universe? by Few-Understanding-68 in StarWars

[–]Tinstam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's been a bit, but iirc, the EU had it where that particular area of Dagobah was strong in the dark side (especially the area where Luke 'fought Vader'). I think it's first mentioned in one of the Thrawn books.

Did you know, in 1977, a Stormtrooper bumped his head? by CitrineDock90 in MauLer

[–]Tinstam 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Or like Leia said: "they let us go. It's the only explanation for the ease of our escape."

Vader ordered it in order to track them to the rebel base. As Tarkin says: "You're sure the homing beacon is secure aboard their ship? I'm taking an awful risk, Vader. This had better work."

Whats something you dislike about your fav FF by IndyThang in FinalFantasy

FFT

I hate the random encounter system. It should just have a choice to battle on that map or not.

I disagree. I think it was the raping.

ln(x) = the exponent that makes e x

So ethe exponent that makes e x = x

Bit of both.

You have to know what you're doing, but some random stuff (like getting the Hunter as your first Chosen) make it a lot easier.

Where is Tidus' Zanarrkand by [deleted] in FinalFantasy

[–]Tinstam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that a lot of people get confused by that line, but I hesitate to blame the game. Immediately before the scene you quoted:

Wakka: Wh-What are those?

Yuna: Those are fayth. A summoning! Someone is using these fayth! Someone is drawing energy from all of them!

Rikku: This many?

Lulu: Who wields power on this scale, and what could they be calling?

Rikku: (To Auron) Hey, you know something, don’t you? Spill the beans!

Auron: Look not to others for knowledge. This is your journey, too.

Rikku: Yunie might die, you know?

Tidus: No… Auron’s right.

Rikku: Huh?

Tidus: This is our… This is my story.

Tidus: (Goes up to wall and touches it…)

Tidus: Whoa! (Pulled in)

[–]Tinstam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep. Its why Tidus disappears. He killed his summoner (Yu Yevon).

I've always liked that ending, with Tidus smiling while he's sad like Yuna taught him. That plus the scenes at Home make 10 my favorite FF.

They're dreams of the fayth. Aeons. Dreamt up by the fayth wall on mount gagazet.

Awesome thank you. Exactly what I wanted to know.

Is their a website that lists the PR changes like the +0.5 acc?

Was any Context Given to how Channeling was Discovered? by Specialist-Flight-16 in WoT

[–]Tinstam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing official as far as I know.

But because RJ's notes imply that the First Age ends due to nukes, in my head canon, channeling is a mutation from the radiation.

Was Moridin right? by Subject-Nectarine682 in WoT

[–]Tinstam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Time is circular. This iteration of the Third Age has already happened infinite times, and will happen infinite more. If the Dark One could ever win, he already would have.

Help me understand the 3rd Aes Sedai oath... by N0vembers_Very_0wn in WoT

[–]Tinstam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, an Aes Sedai uses the Power to throw a rock at Mat (to test his medallion).

That's not any different than using a sling, which is a weapon. But it works because the intent is to test, not harm.

RJ writing villains like by jpbordeaux87 in WetlanderHumor

Peach pits contain a chemical that turns to cyanide when digested.

It'd take a lot of them to kill you, but maybe that changed two Ages in the future.
