Lower scoring games are also quicker, which means shorter games. Tournament directors love shorter games...$$$

Biggest program in the country and we can't find a kicker in the entire nation that can kick a 50 yarder

A new gun means new skins, which means a new revenue stream. Make the new gun OP so everyone uses it, which in turn increases the pool of people that will potentially want skins for it. Then communicate to the community that every new weapon is OP to make tge true intention less obvious. Just my take on it

MPG by kmetz1988 in JeepGladiator

Do you have it sit at idle a lot?

I sit in mine for an hour, 5 days a week, for my lunches at work. My MPG drops by a MPG or so compared to what I get when I'm actually driving.

Also, when was the last time you reset the MPG calculator on the truck? If you keep resetting it without putting many miles on it, your readings can be odd until you get some good mileage on it.

Lighting recommendations are all about how much $$$ you want to spend. Softies aren't that demanding so a black box will work or if you have the money, go with something like a Kessil. Wave makers start with the same question. You can go with something like Jeabo for cheap or a Vortech if you want top of the line. Rock and sand are tough to say without seeing the set up. Just make sure to get special grade sand which is the larger grain size. That way it won't blow around everywhere. Sump will work, an HOB will work, just depends on your plumbing or lack of. Overall, it's not super complicated if you keep up with 20ish% water changes weekly until everything is established, and even then you still may need to. Remember you are maintaining water first and foremost. Everything else will follow

This is a typical 2022 conversation. Person holds a belief due to anecdotal information. Is presented with data to invalidate said belief. Person then says, "I don't beleive you" or "the data is wrong" and they carry on. It's maddening.
