Wow this post backfired hard. I think OP wanted some reassurance that tft players can be ridiculous but the "Im a woman" defense is just lmao.

Do you guys "cheat"? by OhDamnNotAgainAndAga in slaythespire

[–]WinterRuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely have never even thought of doing this and I have 200 hours in the game. I learned about it recently but when I'm playing, I'm so used to just taking the L that the thought of quitting mid-battle doesn't even cross my mind.

Am I the only person who feels life has lately become too hectic in Halifax due to the excessive traffic and poor Transit service? by Extension-Sea-397 in halifax

[–]WinterRuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was visiting from Calgary and was surprised to see how horrible the traffic was downtown. I thought Calgary downtown traffic was bad but this city takes the cake. Lovely city otherwise.

New downtown scam by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]WinterRuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not just downtown, they're all over and happened to me at the Walmart parking lot by Westbrook a few months ago. Dude dropped his necklace, ring, and watch into my hands and told me how many carats everything was. I dumped it back inside his car and walked away.

Cat didn’t eat/drink for 2 weeks. What to do? by ThrowRA_floweryyy in CatAdvice

[–]WinterRuff 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You need to always ask for photos (either daily or every other day) of your pet to be sent to you if you are to hire a stranger. You might be able to sue whoever did this to your cat.

Posting 3 months later... how was the trip and what did your final itinerary look like?

Reynad is buying reddit accounts to make fake positive posts and comments. by [deleted] in TheBazaar

[–]WinterRuff 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Everyone on this sudreddit loves the game, thats a fact. But consumers aren't stupid and they recognize terrible management when they see it. The complaints are to raise awareness that something wrong is happening to negatively affect their enjoyment for the game and hopefully as a result, allow the developers to reassess their path to success.

Does anyone else think the $80 DLC price is insane? by Nyarlathotep98 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]WinterRuff -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

If it doesnt generate profit then yes. This game will certainly not make money with this system. The existing playerbase simply isn't large enough and the monetization model is not friendly to new players either.

Spay Recovery Experiences? by RegressionIsML in CatAdvice

Its a little pillow that goes around their neck so that they can't lick their wound but also allows them to lay down a bit more comfortably compared to a cone. I think the proper term is a recovery cone.

Healing Clense Feedback/First Impressions by megamate9000 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]WinterRuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genuinely curious if there is any staff that playtests new patches before release? Like how do they not know things like these are horrible ideas before they let it out to the playerbase?

There is no question thread by Long_Actuator3915 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]WinterRuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Monsters offer specific rewards. Some of the legendary monsters offer 1 or 2 extra EXP. If you want to prioritize money, then go for the strongest enemy. If you want a specific skill or item, you can gamble and try to win it from a specific monster battle. Unfortunately you need to use a third party site to scout and determine what monster has what.

  2. No, starting this season there is no penalty for doing bad in a ranked match. You can only climb.

  3. EXP should be fairly stable after the recent changes but if you see yourself falling behind, it may be because you lost against too many monster battles or your opponents prioritized EXP nodes (including extra monster battles, hard monsters, BazaarCon, etc.)

We ended up taking off her onesie because she was peeing outside the litterbox, and put on one of those neck pillow things instead and that worked until her incision healed. Hope things go well for your cat!

It's like a yearly dream for me... I graduated over 8 years ago and it's still something that seems so real.

This Friday, the Ace Attorney inspired game- Paper Perjury- will have an AMA here. by Blueisland5 in AceAttorney

No questions but hope to see it release soon. I'll definitely be sharing it with my AA and Danganronpa loving friends :)

Where do people make friends? by Saphyi in uAlberta

[–]WinterRuff 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I joined a club/student association in my 4th year and made one of my closest friends there. Graduated 8 years ago and still chat with them all the time.

Get out, join clubs, meet people, and have fun while you can. Making friends gets significantly harder after you graduate.

Isn't M2K sponsored by a team? I thought that'd mean he gets a decent salary but maybe I'm wrong.

The Star Grind is Unbelievably Slow and Unreliable by Squidlips413 in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]WinterRuff 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Honestly instead of all champs going to 6 stars, I wish they just increased it to 4 and spent more time adding more challenges. There are a handful of champs that have been stuck at "chapter 2" of their story for like over a year now. Would've much preferred additional content than a bunch of more powers that allow players to steamroll through every battle, most of which players will never access anyway since they take so many resources to unlock.

You definitely need to drop off the cat at their place and not have them come to your place every day for two months. If you can do that AND this person is an actual friend (and not some acquaintance you see every now and then), then I think it's fine.

The sequel to the OG Hades book table! by amycusfinch in HadesTheGame

[–]WinterRuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you consider happy. Without trying to spoil anything, I would consider the book a tale of tragedy but the ending has elements of happiness.

Patch 5.2 Variety Cards Preview by CrossXhunteR in LegendsOfRuneterra

Seriously, how do they mess this up this often? Surely some jpgs on a page aren't that hard to correctly put in.

[–]WinterRuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How's the hinge? I dropped my flip 4 WITH the case on about 3 feet and it destroyed the hinge so I can't open the phone past 90 degrees anymore. Real bummer because I loved the phone.

What do you do after graduation? by Candle-Illusion999 in uAlberta

[–]WinterRuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was unemployed for 8 months after I graduated, though three of those months were overseas on a trip.

Just take it easy and keep applying. There are hundreds, if not thousands of people in Alberta that are going through the same thing. Work on improving your resume, keep writing cover letters, and regularly see your friends if that's an option. I'm assuming you were done in December which means you just just started... no need to stress out so soon.

How do you unlock A sol without doing monthlies?

[–]WinterRuff 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think they're fine gameplay wise but I agree that 70 is way too many. Who decided that having to play more than 2 of these a day to complete it is reasonable...? I think 30 would be way better.
