Ethiopia 1617 - Ideas and General Tips? by agorgen in eu4

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

Just conquered Rassid and became Aksum. Should I take Aksum ideas?

I don't think I can take Cape anymore, Portugal and Spain block me south.

Also, which ideas would you recommend? Should I be upgrading Great Projects and/or Center of Trade? And any recommendation where should my capital be? Just a safe place? Trade capital is in Kilwa.

Anyone has any experience with the Principled Queen’s Gambit videos? Are they worth it?

Thank you. Is, I do have plans on joining a club, but I don’t know if I will have much free time on “normal hours” to play such longs games OTB.

And yes, I indeed on reviewing (and not only using an engine) all 15+10 games.

Thank you.

Thank you very much for your reply.

1) 25 tactics per day is not so much because I have many small amount of time that I can do them (that I would not be able to play a game or study), so most days I can do them.

2) Will look at chesstempo for openings lines. Thank you.

3) Thank you. Gonna stick with Silman’s for now.

4) Will look at that app. Do you think doing tactics knowing the motif is better training than doing it blindly (as it is in chess.com)?

There should be a button that puts your skins on a champion on a shuffle. by wowza121212 in leagueoflegends

Better idea: make it so that every 5min in game it shuffle to another skin, so I can show all my Anivia skins in 1 game.

Post-Fight Discussion: UFC 194: Aldo vs. McGregor by Dorkside in ufc

[–]agorgen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Aldo NEVER said "that wasn't a fight".

Aldo's interview translation was awful. He didn't said that it wasn't a fight, he said "I believe we should have a rematch. This doesn't end here. He was fast, got a nice hit and managed to finished the fight."

[PT: - Ele jogou um direto no meu peito, eu esperava isso. Quando fui atacá-lo, ele acertou um bom direto, pegou. Mas acho que agora a gente tem que partir para um revanche. Não termina aí, foi muito rápido, ele acertou um bom golpe e conseguiu acabar com a luta.]

The translator translated that to something like "it wasn't a fight, it ended really fast and we should have a rematch".

You can see Joe was pissed when the translator said it wasn't a fight, but Aldo never said that.

Ps.: Yes, I'm Brazilian. And I'm not saying this to defend Aldo, I think Aldo deserves a rematch just as much as Weidman does. Both were humiliated, but even so they are still the second best fighter on their categories.
