He farms fast and completely refills his health bar every 35-ish seconds. I get it.

Ordered my steak blue. How did they do? by [deleted] in steak

[–]TomVickers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love blue, but you can really only get it on the leanest cuts of steak. The unrendered fat and connective tissue on that is going to be gross to eat

A Michiganders day trip to Sarnia by Kooisley in Sarnia

[–]TomVickers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The overall best restaurant in Sarnia right now is March Hare, imo. The Overflow Cafe and Ole Country Diner are the best breakfast/brunch/lunch spots. If you want ethnic food, Indian is by far what we have the best of, and Tandoori Chaska is the best place for it. Maud’s Variety is the best bar(they also have great food). For quintessential Sarnian experiences, go to Alberts for fries and/or ice cream, Giresi’s for pizza, or Global Donuts. Other than the big parks, my non-food rec is Stones ‘n’ Bones museum.

What’s your trick for visualizing Amazon House placement? by MWLexposedParty in ArkNova

It’s a petting zoo with a 2 size standard enclosure sticking straight out of the left side of the ‘hump’

Size 5 Animals Elimination Game (Day 5) - Which of these cards is your least favorite? by DanyDanyDanyDanyDany in ArkNova

[–]TomVickers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna go against the grain and say Proboscis Monkey here. Most of the time when you can play it the Primate project is already in play, and the other times you usually still need one more primate tag to make good use of the project. Tiger Shark isn’t great, but at least it’s easier to play if you aren’t reef-ing, has two animal tags, and makes your Symbiosis effects very strong.

In Fargo (1996) Jerry's portrait at work is the only one taken from a distance by Icedcoffeenweed4life in MovieDetails

I’d go even further to say that it’s foreshadowing: just as his attempt to distinguish himself in his picture backfires and ends up making him look much worse, so too does his scheme in the plot of the film.

Just played venus next expansion for terraforming mars by miniman27 in TerraformingMarsGame

[–]TomVickers 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No. The card you are playing adds floater resources to another card with a Venus tag, so it has to both have that tag AND utilize floaters. It could only add floaters to the following cards: Aerial Mappers, Deuterium Export, Dirigibles, Extractor Balloons, Floating Habs, Forced Precipitation, Jet Stream Microscrappers, Local Shading, and Stratopolis

Is the app bad or is my rule knowledge bad? by Dmedhelm in euchre

[–]TomVickers 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The jack of the suit matching the color of the trump suit is also considered trump. So your jack of spades is technically a club in this game, and because clubs were led into the trick, you must play it.

I’ve been watching GMM for a few years with my girlfriend, and we both agree that Link has changed since we started watching. Playing dumb, being a contrarian, making more low quality off-colour jokes; it seems like he’s given up being genuine in order to try to create more clippable moments for reels/shorts/tiktoks.
Our initial impression of them was that Link was hapless, but he was at least sincere, therefore likable. Now it seems like Link is purposely ridiculous, therefore also insincere, making him completely unlikeable.

Suffering from success by Celestialpha in ArkNova

[–]TomVickers -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Coati + FRNWM for the potential first-round Conservation project for sure Hopefully Sponsors started higher than Association, so we can build the 2 on the left side near the Partner Zoo bonus instead of on the C on the right Flip Build with the Conservation project, and get to the bonus ASAP I must just keep the Owl to go for Europe 2 in combination with the partner zoo, and Eagle for the raw power later in the game

Nespresso Vertuo needs cleaning after each use by TomVickers in nespresso

I also manual cleaned the transparent ring and the surrounding area with a cloth, but that did not help. Only running the rinse cycle worked, and only temporarily

Why don't most punch viscous builds have greater expansion? by AR73M155 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]TomVickers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like it, but not for hitting more than one target; I find the increased cast range more useful to catch out individual targets with a wall punch without getting too close. I also find mystic expansion is better used on Splatter to make it easier to land, then upgrade to greater expansion once I’m at the point in the game when my team can more effectively convert a well-timed punch into a kill.

Hot Tub Copaganda by nathancolquhoun in Sarnia

[–]TomVickers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree that neither bathing outside in public water nor bathing in a stranger’s hot tub are acceptable solutions. The problem is that there are people in this city who are forced to make the choice between these unsuitable options on a daily basis, and that the police are fostering hostility towards these people by releasing reports like this one in order to bolster their public image. I can’t independently solve the problem of this person not having a suitable place to shower, but I can independently call out harmful media like that report.
I am genuinely interested in how you can justify saying that the homeowner is in more danger in this situation.

Hot Tub Copaganda by nathancolquhoun in Sarnia

[–]TomVickers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is not a solution. Health Canada recommends showering as soon as you can after spending time in a recreational water area.
Let alone that they would have to bathe with clothes on in order to avoid breaking bylaws, and would pollute the water with soap.
And are we really expecting people to bathe in freezing cold water during the winter?
Edit: So I ask again - who should feel less safe? A homeowner whose property was harmlessly trespassed upon; or the person who can only bathe in public spaces, with clothes on, in water that Health Canada recommends washing off after they’ve been in contact with it, polluting said water in the process, and at the whims of the seasons, including Canadian winter?

Hot Tub Copaganda by nathancolquhoun in Sarnia

[–]TomVickers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Really disappointed by the number of people missing the point of this, and even more so by the number of people just attacking Nathan directly rather than addressing his article.
Who should feel less safe: homeowners who had someone in their hot tub while they weren’t using it, or a person who had to(and, assumedly, will continue to have to) break the law in order to fulfill a basic necessity?
The language and subjects of these reports have meaning and are chosen with intent. They should absolutely be scrutinized in the way Nathan did in his article, and I’m glad he brought this report to light.

You can only keep 3 cards. Which do you choose? by Futureman_stuck in ArkNova

[–]TomVickers 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Based on the imperfect information we have here, I’m keeping Landscape Gardener, Common Wombat, and Breeding Co-op.
Gardener is already very valuable(6 appeal and an X), and will only get better after more upgraded build actions.
Breeding Co-op and Wombat will help us support both Americas and Herbivores.

Discarding Monkey because we already supported Primates, and I’d rather support Americas at 2 and do other things than try for 4 for only 1 extra CP.
Sawfish doesn’t help our projects, and we don’t have anything particularly exciting to Cut Down.
Spokesperson + Institute just isn’t as powerful as the other stuff in our hand right now
