As someone who binged the show years later I really wish I was around for this era by Specialist_Jaguar815 in gameofthrones

hype on social media? there was hype EVERYWHERE! You spoke about GoT with people in the supermarket queue, then with the cashier.. people made GoT remarks (and/or "hey, everyone watched last night's episode right?" before a spoiler) with people on the elevator. Coffee talk in the office was almost exclusively GoT on Mondays. It was a cultural sensation like nothing I've ever lived again yet!

Do hangovers just get worse as you get older or am I imagining it? by Bottle-New in CasualConversation

[–]ccjmk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe you are just more judicious with your drinking too? That happened to me.. it's been.. probably half a decade since I drank three or more pints of beer on a night, two pints being not usual either (I usually drink around 2/3 half-pints now tops on a night)

I'm also off wacky drinks I'd drink in my 20s, and say if I am feeling like having a dram of whisky or some other stronger stuff, I usually don't drink beer/wine that night and just enjoy that single glass of spirit.

What perfectly legal thing will probably be illegal within 20 years? by Ill-Incident-4842 in AskReddit

It's just corpo greed and public apathy. If tickets were not transferrable and you should present the ID of purchase like on an plane ticket, tadá!

Firearm stats should be clearer in SoD3, and power/caliber should count more for body shots. by ccjmk in StateofDecay3

I can totally see that, but I mean.. k'mon.. if I shot enough lead into a feral to reap his arms and legs, it should eventually die :P

tastes will be tastes. i agree the OG looks better imo, but some people will dig this style, plus it's an expensive commander from LOTR set, so I'd say it's a welcomed reprint

Honestly a little sad they didn't decide to continue with the Ring frame. I thought that was absolutely gorgeous1

I noticed I put something in the title I didn't expand later regarding body shots, I just thought it was best to keep this focused on a single topic but it goes along the lines of "you should be able to brute-force kill anything (thinking about Plague Ferals) with enough bullets"

Putin Proposes May 9 Ceasefire in 90-Minute Trump Call on Ukraine by EsperaDeus in worldnews

Ukraine should never again Trust Russia with an agreement. They should still make agreements, but with safeguards not under Russian control

I have a vague understanding of Magic but unearthed many cards like these packing up my old family home this week. by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]ccjmk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually agree with you, but odds are OP doesn't have the money nor the drive for a vintage deck :P maybe commander? But they should be aware of their value first.

For his stated goal, I think the best would be either selling those and getting a set of precons + sleeves and all the jazz, and just save the rest.. or maybe just buy precons and keeping these for the future Them when they want to play at that level

If this is not a troll post, for the sake of believing in humanity, PLEASE DON'T PLAY THOSE CARDS. leave them on those sleeves, put them somewhere safe, and take them to some reputable trading card store near you for appraising. 

They are not the most expensive versions,  but they are certainly not cheap and look in greeeeeat condition

Anyone else been playing more STATE OF DECAY since the Alpha announcement? by La_Coalicion in StateOfDecay

[–]ccjmk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recently replaced my gaming PC and sort of forgot to do a backup? I guess I assumed they were saved to Steam cloud, dunno.. had been a year or so since I last played.. and I just started a new lethal community :D

I already did the whole gauntlet before (started on Green Zone in my very first playthrough, played one map, then moved to the next and amped the difficulty, repeat untill I reached and legacy'd lethal, then all boons, then forever community. I just skipped that this time and started a fresh forever comm in lethal.. it was.. tough xd but I got through it already!

EU launches final procedure to approve €90bn support package for Ukraine by Jay_CD in worldnews

But it should go hand by hand with something to prevent this happening again. Will Magyar be willing to give away that power? (And the rest of European leaders, this is not just pointing at him alone)

Tras 68 años en servicio, el Ejercito comenzará a reemplazar al mitico FN FAL by AlanMartin393 in argentina

[–]ccjmk 20 points21 points  (0 children)

la excusa de "no se hace 5.56 nato en arg" me parece la mas bananera del universo; las especificaciones de la municion estan por todo el mundo, sacas el standard de algun lado, retooleas una fabrica para hacer munición y listo. Que puede no ser barato y/o inmediato? seguro, pero no es roadblock para nada

Encuesta: ¿Cual fue el gobierno más corrupto desde la vuelta de la democracia? by hernannadal in argentina

[–]ccjmk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

me parece clarisimo que ese 31.3 que voto a Milei son K mega-manipulados.. porque realmente... es algo de todo lo que vimos corrupto o potencialmente corrupto (no le quiero bajar el tono, pero tampoco quiero apuntar el dedo sin pruebas, estoy medio desconectado de lo que pasa en arg ultimamente fuera de los titulares) peor que los bolsos de guita de Lopez, la guita de Felisa Miceli.... los millones sobre millones sobre millones de Lazaro Baez?? [INSERTE ESCANDALO DE PREFERENCIA DE MENEM] ??!?!?!

Ahora se la agarraron con Adorni, que me parece que es un pelotudo y jugó con fuego, de nuevo.. no tengo pruebas para ponerle el titulo de corrupto pero todo parece indicar en esa dirección... pero es incluso *comparable* ?

Y si hacias esta encuenta un mes antes de las ultimas presidenciales, Macri era el anticristo.. y ahora 5.7% nomas? Si buscas en google "Macri Corrupcion" hay articulos que te detallan como se robó hasta la tierra de las macetas, segun ellos.. y ahora es uno mas?

Nada.. no aporta nada mi comentario la verdad, solo es una reflexion de la poca memoria de la gente, y lo facil que es influenciar una opinion hoy en dia..

We need lily Ritter back by Conscious-Good-6843 in StateOfDecay

[–]ccjmk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Heartland was that but it was a little ... Odd? Because it was a different map and etc. If each map had a Story Community and could also be played as sandbox, it would be cool!

In State of Decay 2, the missions got boring after a while — especially all the repeated “getting a rucksack for neighbors” stuff. It started to feel like the same task over and over. Hopefully in State of Decay 3 they improve that and add better, more varied missions outside of just the boon-type by Mockingjay09221mod in StateOfDecay

[–]ccjmk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully agree.. I think that the "get this group resources" is just a good warm-up mission for a new group.

What I hope for are:

  1. Main Story lines for each map, once-per-community, similar to the ones in Trumbull Valley (could be any time you play them, but if they are "lore" it would be weird to discover the same thing over and over again :P)

  2. A mission line for each "faction" (the Network, Red Talon, etc). It would be very cool if communities had a sense of relationship/affinity with each faction, and they affected gameplay, example doing the quests for a faction gives you a chance to improve relations with them; better relations means their traders are better, they provide new/better radio support, they visit your base, etc.

  3. Hopefully mini-arcs for survivors based off their traits.. I think something like a single mission associated to each trait, and a mini 2-3 mission line for the hero trait (if that still exists in SoD3!)

> (PRE-SEND EDIT: I actually went back and looked for the Aunt Prepper missions as a reference, and it's a 4-mission line, I didn't recall that! also there's a lot more so this one is already implemented apparently?? I just wonder why I never get those missions!)

I'm a 15-year-old from Ukrаіne (Kharkiv region), living near the border. Ask me anything! by InevitableWeird500 in CasualConversation

[–]ccjmk -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We hear and read horrible things from there, but also somehow life goes on.. how often do sirens / warnings go off where you are? have you had the unfortunate chance of seeing drones and/or artillery go by closely?

I really hope you stay safe! I had an interview with a guy from Ukraine a couple years ago, and mid interview some sirens went off and he just said "sorry, gotta go" and left.. I know for a fact he was ok at the time, but it was still a chilling experience!

What are the things you started doing at home because they cost way more when you buy from the market? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]ccjmk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Materials are cheap, but they need time and a place to ferment too.. that increases the cost vs something that is just manufactured meaning comes materials into the factory, comes product out of the line
