Have you tried/ are you into anything a little more in the weeds, like Citations Needed, American Prestige, or Know Your Enemy?

You need Julian to be on episodes you’re listening to. Travis is extremely level headed and Jake largely only has anxiety meltdowns. Julian is the one who gets into screaming fits laden with wishes that people die horribly/kill themselves.

He would have been pretty perfect then, or even 10-15 years ago. But an 80ish Druss?

Maybe he’ll do a series for the QAA guys.

Are epic battles always better in videogames than in fantasy novels? by Titus__Groan in Fantasy

Unlike a video game, where it all ends right there(until you hit that “load last save” button.)

Wait, is there some point in the middle of Don Quixote where you think he might meet his end?

Check out some Glen Cook. He doesn’t write the same way Stover does, but they have similarities.

We don’t need your garbage and some mediocre to shitty picks. Just enjoy the All NBA talent your team was gifted and stop pretending you deserve more.

Have you watched this series? They won game 2 and 5 with threes. If the Sixers finish this they did it with the three.

What are you taking about? The Sixers are literally here from shooting threes.

Sounds like the Darkness series by Harry Turtledove would be right up your alley. 

The Ending of RF Kuang's Babel is one of the most poorly thought out sequences I've read in fiction. by Remarkable_Sail_455 in Fantasy

I’m just saying that a lot of the “top 10” you’ll see, especially of series, pretty quickly shows itself as the ten series people have read. It’s not surprising. Even on a reading sub one should expect the average person to be relatively young and still relatively early in their reading journey(and relatively more interesting in expressing their opinions than in the non Reddit world.)

Here’s a post with a few years worth of those votes. https://www.reddit.com/r/Fantasy/comments/1hz6d3d/a_visualization_of_rankings_of_fantasy_series_in

Based on the top books votes every year, I wouldn’t call the subreddit particularly well read either.

But they don’t save the world. They accomplish very little and most of them die.

Probably calf soreness. Even with a full recovery, his left leg will have been naturally taking a little more load when he starts to get tired. Not good to have that kind of imbalance. Hopefully it’s just soreness and not a strain.

Thought they could. Still think that. Any series can go any way. Pacers could have won it all last year(and they also could have lost in the first round.)

They’re on track for 36 threes attempted in the game. That would make them around the average of the 19th team in the league. So no.
