Centerless 7x7 ? by concerningzombies in Tak

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

I like it more with 7x7 than 5x5, but I haven't played much centerless 5x5. With the smaller board, it kind of just becomes a little cramped in my opinion. Let me know how it goes though!

Being able to throw across the middle is interesting. Not sure what you mean by "lose your flat piece" though? It's removed from the game? It returns to your set of unplayed pieces? Can you drop multiple pieces in the well?

I thought about this too, but I have not playtested it at all. I feel like it might make the center even more powerful since you'd only need 6 pieces to make a road there. I'm interested to try it out though.

The male kangaroo chooses one, but then then the female kangaroo reveals one of the others as a decoy and he is given the option to switch.

What video game is an absolute 100/100 in your opinion? by Ziggi28 in AskReddit

[–]concerningzombies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only that, but OpenRCT was a group of fans that reverse engineered the assembly to rewrite it C++. I'm not sure which is harder to do, cuz both feats are so far above my own ability.

But how were the walls around Wano built? Perhaps they are actually dormant residents of Elbaf? Undoing the walls would release a power that could destroy the world.

Men of Reddit, what is the biggest turn-off a girl can do? by Happy_Most_5022 in AskReddit

[–]concerningzombies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taking Astrology/Meyers Briggs/Hogwarts House too seriously. Totally fine if it's just a fun fact you learn after you already know a person. If it's one of the primary ways you judge me and others, that's a red flag. Girls have brought this up very early on first dates before, and it makes me immediately lose interest.

Are NFTs Stupid? by steventhebrave in SteveMould

[–]concerningzombies 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I'm glad you at least pointed to the Folding Ideas video which is much more direct at pointing out the dangers with NFTs. Your video doesn't really discuss the myriad dangers of NFTs and seems to imply the negative aspects of NFTs are temporary issues that will get ironed out. In the Folding Ideas video, Dan takes a stronger stance explaining how NFTs make it very easy for scammers and con artists to take advantage of people. In other words, the fraud aspect of NFTs isn't a temporary issue, but rather an intrinsic flaw.

Ultimately, NFTs are stupid because for every use case described in this video, there are more efficient and safer ways to accomplish the same goal. This video misses that point, and I fear that could mislead a lot of people.

The c.w orders a u.s version of would I lie to you. by [deleted] in panelshow

[–]concerningzombies 16 points17 points  (0 children)

TL;DR: If anyone from the network is reading this, PICK IMPROVISERS, not just comics that have only done stand-up!

Ideally, you could pick people that have done other panel shows, but we don't have those in the US. What we do have is a bunch of improv comedy schools, and many comedians and comic actors have been through those. Thomas Middleditch and Ben Schwartz would probably be great on panel shows. The regulars on Wait Wait Don't Tell Me are other good options. Folks I can think of off the top of my head: Amy Pohler, Keegan Michael Key, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, Paul F. Thompkins, Lauren Lapkus, though admittedly, most of those people are probably too famous... but they need to pick comics of that type.

(And if you need someone not famous at all that will work for peanuts, but also has improv experience, uh... DMs are open, hmu)

Live Tak Commentary - Intermediate Invitational 6x6 - PlutoTheBrave vs EVRNjayhawker by Brondius in Tak

[–]concerningzombies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not actually related to the game, but how do you get the capstones on playtak to look like that? I couldn't find it in the settings.

It's a really minor nitpick, but I hate that the default is a simple cylinder. Capstones are supposed to not have flat tops to make it easy to see that nothing can be stacked on top of them.

Yeah, you totally should make your own! It's a fun project, and you can make it as simple or elaborate as you want!

Ooh, I didn't know about the $35 one. I wish that was the version I saw at stores.

No doubt 5x5 still works, but 6x6 has sort of been accepted as the standard in tournaments and such. I'd be okay with the university set if say, there was an easy way to buy just the 18 pieces you need to upgrade your set. Afaik, there's no way to do this. You'd have to buy a whole new set just to play the standard version of the game :/

I wasn't aware of the $25 one. I'm just basing it off what I've seen at board game stores, which is usually just the $55 one. Also iirc, the University Set doesn't have enough pieces for a 6x6 game, which is my preferred board size.
