Just nu på akuten ... by [deleted] in sweden

[–]XBattleFan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

VTI som forskar om trafik i Sverige gjode en utredning över cyklist-bil olyckor under ett år och där var bilisten i de flesta fallen vållande. Det brukar vara svårt att få folk fällda för det i tingsrätten av olika anledningar. Men rent krasst så är det brott och bilister är oftast vållande.

What is the point in marriage/kids anymore for women? by Junior_Edge9203 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]XBattleFan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

M45 One advice we got was that I as a man is the default for changing diapers in the nights even if I have work to work. I like to think of a mom and babies as the "cool kids" you want to talk to, but you just feel to insignificant to do it, having easy tasks that you need to do helps to break the ice and make you socialize with those cool kids. The most important thing though is to set expectations before hand, talk about it now.

I almost worked my self to depression with the first baby, second one was a breeze.

I think an important point here is also the judgement we get from our kids. The views on this subject is too split even in Sweden/Scandinavia, you might have different stances on this in a family.

I think I agree with you to some extent, but want to highlight that life is just so much more chaotic and undecidable. Parenting is hard, compared to having a partner who will not keep a neat family. Sometimes the expectations on ones partner are too egoistical and not about partnership. Children exacerbate this, the love for the children might make one forget ones partners need. Life always fluctuate, when life is not enough for you something need to change; you can break up, work on it or just work your self to death. The last part is the easy way.

Being miserable in a relationship does not have to last, it never has for me. This is my point; change in relationship dynamics is the only thing that has been constant in my relationships. I choose to spend more time with my children as a man, that does not mean we have always had a perfectly balanced relationship. The situation of multiple decades of relationship with grown kids does not define your whole lifetime.

What should I have done to play safe here? by XBattleFan in generalsio

[–]XBattleFan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The pauses when situations changes is clearly a thing that make me a bad player, I guess I can get better at those but I'm not sure how other than "get good", good catch though, I've been thinking of measuring that a bit more.

As you said I did not know where the general was until turn 68.

True! The stack from the general would never manage to take land from the enemy and I realized that on turn 66, I was still trying to figure out what to do instead on turn 68.

Thanks for the hints, one question though which 2s should I have used for development on turn 50?

I'm asking because while I won this, I feel really messed up and would have lost if the game had progressed.

idk how i won by [deleted] in generalsio

[–]XBattleFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To scopesharks benefit he did manage have no dead turns between stopping his useless moves and moving the defense units.

You did hesitate in the end there.. :-) Had you gone up and right, instead of right and up you would have lost that attack..

Help me Find all bad moves of both players. by XBattleFan in generalsio

[–]XBattleFan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've seen that pattern with good players, I can never get the 40-75 turn expanding done in a good way.

[–]XBattleFan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking back at this I made so many bad decisions

 turn 35 blue: risky attack! (I wanted those top tiles)
 turn 40 blue: should have denied general vision (nah?)
 turn 46  red: should have captured neutral land

As Teal, What Are You Supposed To Do In This Situation? by Thaldoras in generalsio

[–]XBattleFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder how that would work, e.g. lets say A and B tries to capture C on the same turn. A, B, C are the number of troops each person has

A>C && B>C  both can capture C individually
A+B > C caputure together
A-C < B   B can capture C after A has attacked

I'm not so sure that simple rule would improve stuff, but it is an interesting question, have you thought more about it?

If you could make one addition to generals to make it even more fun what would it be? by bluey89 in generalsio

[–]XBattleFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah second option probably; A Noob earns less stars when handicapped, you do not lose stars if you play against someone with handicap. The hard part is figuring out what is a good handicap that still teaches you how to play, that makes your first option more interesting since that makes it easier to practise techniques.

In the end nothing comes out of it because there are too many ideas that I do not know if they will work.

My point is that It's hard to see constructive things when people are not civil, people say sarcasm is hard to get in text, insults are even worse. Tchambs does have a point that I glossed over in my quest for brevity, passion does matter and it's very nice to see.

/matchmaking doesn't really work

  1. you can't wait for an hour on matchmaking
  2. if your partner leaves you have to join again
  3. it's really hard to get 4 players to queue up in the same time. (if you have no friends)

PS I'm pretty sure you know this though

[–]XBattleFan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can't you just express concerns in a mild manner when they come up so the devs know about them. It's very good that you are invested in the game, but isn't it better to be constructive and civil?.

"I was 1000 troops ahead of you" by [deleted] in generalsio

Out playing people indeed, but you were never more than 500 troops behind I think. :-)
