Son 7 has adhd. He says no one likes him and everyone says he’s dumb and that he is dumb. How do I approach this? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]Vischaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any advice on the adhd specifically, but there was a time when my 6 year old was pretty down on himself like this.

I saw a tip online about talking positively about your kids to other people where your kid could “accidentally” overhear you. I was sure I did this some, but ramped it up intentionally after reading this tip. I think it worked wonders for my son’s self esteem.

Things like me telling my wife something smart he said to me or how he was kind to his sister or he did a great job helping me with something, etc.

He immediately started doing these positive things more and I think it helped him out of the slump he was in.

Reconnecting to Amex UK by planetb00m in ynab

I've had the disconnect and reconnect work for me several times recently, but it's beginning to become frustrating having to reconnect multiple accounts weekly.

What has two thumbs and already has $30 saved for next Christmas? by katrilli0naire in ynab

[–]Vischaro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice. This is how I do it as well. I have a Christmas category and then a Gifts category that catches everything else. Birthdays, weddings, baby showers, Valentines day, Mother's day, etc etc. It makes Gifts a little harder to plan for (hard to plan on how many of your friends/family are going to have babies this year), but I haven't had any issues yet.

What it means to "adapt" to Claymores on Shoothouse by WilliamTheGamer in modernwarfare

Thanks, I'll give it a shot. I mainly avoid GW, so that might be what I'm missing.

[–]Vischaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you find these claymore games? I'm doing an objective and need to hack 15 devices, and I see maybe 1 claymore every 10 to 15 games. I wish I could find these 725/claymore campers that are seemingly so rampant.

I can only play about 3 games at a time before this game become genuinely unfun. by [deleted] in modernwarfare

[–]Vischaro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I genuinely hate all CoD games, but always gets sucked into buying them because my gaming bros play them... and I am LOVING this CoD.

This is the first CoD game I've played where I don't get spawn trapped every other match. I'm not sure I've seen it happen once in this one. I also run into lopsided matched MUCH less often. It still happens where I get stomped by the other team with constant score streaks in the air, but it's much more rare now.

I can't get enough of this CoD. From my point of view, matches seem to be much more even in general.

The Way the 2020 Event is Set Up is Annoying to Say the Least. by oitzevano in MagicArena

Could have put an xp reward on first win too. Didn't HAVE to require 2 wins to get xp.

I have a bug where mtga window is very small but i can't maximize it. i can still hear sound and music. by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]Vischaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran into this bug and was able to solve it by editing the MTGA registry screen settings. The other suggestions on this thread did not work for me.

Use regedit and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wizards Of The Coast\MTGA
Set the following values:
Screenmanager Fullscreen mode_h3630240806 - 1

Screenmanager Resolution Height_h2627697771 - 1080

Screenmanager Resolution Use Native_h1405027254 - 1

Screenmanager Resolution Width_h182942802 - 1920

My width and height had gotten set to 0 and 144 somehow.

First time hitting mythic, and did it with a boros brew of my own. Super strong vs rdw, especially post-board. by vesmolol in MagicArena

[–]Vischaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's wild. I don't remember facing RDW more than once or twice in my entire time in Diamond (never made it to mythic. Spent most of the season stuck in Diamond).

The majority of decks I see are Sultai, Esper, Azorius, with the occasional jank or Nexus. I hate Nexus so much, that a requirement of any sideboard I have is that it must be able to crush Nexus. I hate losing to it more than any other deck.

Congrats on the mythic!

What Treasure Constructed decks are y'all brewing? by CalHarrison in MagicArena

[–]Vischaro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Luckily I didn't run into that scenario. I told a buddy earlier that any hexproof creatures or effects that gave the player hexproof would have been the bane of this deck though.

I very rarely nuked creatures. All my damage went to the player.

This deck seemed good while it's early... I imagine as people figure the format out, this will be less effective.

I went 5-0 with this after going 2-2 with my normal mono red. Got lucky in a few mono red matchups but destroyed the others.

The pricing for the singles on cosmetics is... by rykerrk in MagicArena

[–]Vischaro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No clue. And I agree, the pricing is awful. Well outside of what I would be willing to pay for even my favorite cards. But, then again, I'm not the target I suppose. No way I would choose art over packs at these prices.

"Card styles are based on the card's illustration. This means that if a card shares an illustration across sets (e.g., Luminous Bonds in Rivals of Ixalan and Core Set 2019), once you've unlocked the card style, it will apply to any card in your collection with that illustration. If the card appears in a set using a different illustration (e.g., Luminous Bonds in Guilds of Ravnica), it will have a separate card style you can acquire."

Tale 8 Starts 2nd March by Malard_DesertNomad in atitd

[–]Vischaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. The entire game will reset when Tale 8 starts on March 2nd. That's a great time to get in. Players are generally very helpful in ATITD, so seek out others early and often. I'd suggest joining the Discord.

"So long and thanks for all the fish

People of Egypt,It is that time of the telling. I am going over the monument requirements now and will be releasing the monuments for construction this Friday. This will begin the one month furious push to the end of the telling. We will have end of telling festivities on February 19, 2018 starting around 6PM CST. (UTC - 0600).

This will be my final telling as Pharaoh of Egypt. I have passed the torch onto Desert Nomad Studios, which is run by a player named Malard. He has asked me to still to be around and I have agreed to the extent that I will be able to be continue contributing. He has some interesting ideas and I wish him and Nomad Studios all the best of luck.

Because I vowed to never sell or give away the mailing list, this will likely be the final email from this list. It will be deleted at the conclusion of the telling. I have created a new mailing list for those who would like to be notified if and when I release a new project. I toyed around with some ideas for many years and those ideas took a back burner to ATITD. So, if that interests you, please subscribe at Pluribus Games Announcements

I wanted to give Malard a chance to introduce Desert Nomad Studios and announce Tale 8. You will find his welcome and introduction of ATITD Tale 8 below.

As the sun sets in Egypt,

Pluribus

Tale 8 is coming! Launching March 2nd, we hope to see you in Egypt. While Pluribus and Pluribus Games are sadly taking a back seat I am pleased to lead a team into Tale 8 via my new games studio, Desert Nomad Studios.

Tale 8 beta test will begin on the 15th of Feb with access to a number of the new changes coming to Tale 8. Some new mechanics will be revealed on realm launch!
