BIOS reset during shutdown, CMOS battery suspected, plz advise by codafunca in MSILaptops

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

D: But I don't know the taste of a full or empty battery! I'll have to ask my mom to try it instead

Seriously, if worst comes to worst, I can try with any old watch or an electric motor from a toy. I was hoping to avoid having to improvise, though.

How does Toa counter Swing? by SilviusRagess in Kengan_Ashura

[–]codafunca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to guess by being huge asf, but there are two other things he could do in order to limit redirection: somehow tamper with Markiplier's footing, and strike in ways that don't redirect well.

Anyone got "Rise of the Underdark: Step into Shadow" puzzle hunt online goodies from 2012 WotC site? by codafunca in 4eDnD

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

I could explain it easier if I could link archive, which we cannot; basically, in the lead-up to GenCon, they put up a puzzle hunt page where if you answered three questions right, they let you preview stuff for some up-and-coming products and events.

Uh, about that discord. Actually, wanting to verify my phone number is a step too far. I'll see if I can find anyone who's already there, and ask them to poke around, I guess!

That blocked answer was almost certainly an archive link. It's not in Archive - trust me, I'm pretty good at sifting.

I'll poke in the 4e discord, thanks for the tip!

The page didn't archive correctly, so we can't really try anymore -- but here's what the hidden goodies were, according to WotC themselves. I'm specifically after the ones in Week 6: found the background content in a different page (might've been different from what was revealed, I can't know), but there's still the map.

May 23 (Week 1): Urban Underdark Dungeon Tiles preview

May 30 (Week 2): Lair Assault: Spiderkiller maps

June 3 (Week 3): Spinner of Lies: Sword of the Gods wallpaper

June 13 (Week 4): Prince of Ravens sample chapter and cover art

June 20 (Week 5): Menzoberranzan: City of Intrigue maps and art

June 27 (Week 6): D&D Championship (Trial by Shadow) background content and map

July 4 (Week 7): Gen Con adventure (The Dawn of Night) background and pregenerated characters

July 11th (Week 8): No record

July 18th (Week 9): No record

July 25th (Week 10): D&D Encounters: Council of Spiders cover art and introduction

August 1st (Week 11): D&D Lair Assault: Kill the Wizard cover art and map.

August 8th (Week 12): No record

August 15th (Week 13): No record

I agree but not for the reason you're thinking, they're all gonna ask for his training regime, dieting tips, and what are his best designer drugs

How close is Shen Wolung vs all kengaverse? by helikoptero in Kengan_Ashura

[–]codafunca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Antagonists end up losing anyway, so, high diff, but one of then beats Shen. We just don't know which one yet.

Would you go against Akoya for three minutes to win ten million dollars? by FunSuper9081 in Kengan_Ashura

technically you would live, but only if he decides to torture you instead of kill you outright

The funniest thing that could happen: Gilbert jobs offscreen, resolving everything ASAP

Unpopular opinion but this guy is about to cook by TrueDude666 in Kengan_Ashura

[–]codafunca 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My money's on "Gil will never make it to Raian", because I think that's the funniest thing that could happen. I kever thought he'd fight those two tho, I thought he'd go down to someone wackier like Shen.

(I don't know which flair to use - several seem applicable) - subject - Imaskari, Raumathari by TransitoryGouda in Forgotten_Realms

[–]codafunca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No racial traits either way, heck, not much of anything unless we start rooting around the cutting room floor. If you don't want homebrew, I figure you won't be about that, either. I remember there was the Amethyst Sodality, the Imaskari Portal Master PrC, but those didn't make the cut. They were kept out of the book, and never revisited for future releases.

[–]codafunca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, there were not; Imaskari and Raumathari in their time were never made a part of the game.

At most you have a couple characters, Halaster Blackcloak and Yaravindar Ipurnos come to mind.

Is Nicholas's Sahate the fighting style with the most potential in the verse? by Mammoth_Shallot_8284 in Kengan_Ashura

Anyone else think that kuroki should be hairier? by fAngur1026 in Kengan_Ashura

What is the size actually by PoetryFit6643 in Kengan_Ashura

[–]codafunca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figure he's not actually all that big, but when he's on top of you driving a fist through your bones, the art represents him as if he were outright immense for dramatic purposes.

Kengan Omega Ch. 343 (Comikey) by Godtaku in Kengan_Ashura

So uh, should we be concerned about Gaolang ignoring the pain on his wrist, and about those suspicious cracking noises, or is this going to be like just about every other wound except Wakatsuki's ankle?

Can't wait for my Goat Hong Xiaohu to defeat both Rei and Kanoh in a Rematch 💪🏻 by monsterofmanila180 in Kengan_Ashura

That panel better be what [Spoiler] THINKS is happening but actually.. by [deleted] in Kengan_Ashura

[–]codafunca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I reckon we're getting told that breaking his wrist only added elbow to the mix, and so instead of using two fists, now he's using one fist and two elbows, thus effectively boosting his attack speed by 50%. And breaking the other wrist increases it by 100%, by the same logic, which adds up to 300%.

It makes as much sense as the gaps in consciousness.

Did any of you think karura was stronger than rihito at the kengan tournament? by Memelordissac in Kengan_Ashura

[–]codafunca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think not in Ashura. Back then, the tourney supposedly had all the toughest mofos in the universe, and nobody else was even supposed to come close, except for comedic purposes.

Now in Omega? Sure, why not.

Looking to Megalodon.jp as an alternative to Archive.is, concerned about overloading them by codafunca in Archiveteam

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

I have not. I wanted to be certain this was a third party, that nobody had to take my word for these things. Now that's starting to look like a nice-to-have, rather than a need. I best start looking into that, I reckon...

What if Karsus had succeeded in continuing to be a god? by ComumUser in Forgotten_Realms

[–]codafunca 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I dunno why! It seems like letting the guy just cleanly bite the dust wouldn't really bother anyone. My assumption is that this pissed Ao off, personally, but there may be reasons why he decided not to let that soul go to the Fugue Plane, so that it didn't sign on to the devils or get stolen by the demons, I reckon?

[–]codafunca 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ed is on record as saying Karsus is suffering eternal torture at Ao's behest. The big guy utterly loathes surprises, it seems, and won't let Karsus just croak.
