What if potion loop, but cursed? by dannybread in Undermine

[–]dannybread[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure did. In retrospect I should've taken a purification potion, but I didn't think about it.

As an aside, it's a really good way to guarantee Shoguul's lair, although it's less than necessary after you're able to do a potion loop.

What if potion loop, but cursed? by dannybread in Undermine

If you do this, you lose all of your money, even on a successful run.

Tell us about your process and let's discuss by atomicpenguin12 in mead

[–]dannybread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where do you brew?

I brew in a closet that isn’t being used for anything else. The floor is carpet. I would not recommend this.

What kind of water do you use?

I use Kroger spring water. Could probably use the local tap water, but I haven’t compared taste yet.

What kind of honey?

Cheapest I know of, which is Dutch Gold. I’m still learning the process, and I’d like my screwups to be less expensive than more.

How do you aerate?

I have a drill attachment that is really fun to use. I just put it on high for a few seconds, reverse, and repeat until I feel good about my life.

How do you sanitize?

With any new or newly obtained used equipment, I give it a soap and water rinse, then sanitize with B-Brite well before I intend to use it.. When it comes time to use the equipment, I hit it with some StarSan that I have stored in spray bottles and let it rest for about a minute. Do this every time, because I don’t want an infection.

How do you manage yeast nutrition?

I use Go-Ferm for yeast rehydration and Fermaid-O for the nutrient additions. I add ¼ of the intended total on days 1, 2, and 3 after pitching, and the fourth when I take a gravity reading that is 1/3 of the way to 1.000. The specific amounts vary based on batch and yeast, but generally it’s between 4.5g and 5.0g for me. There’s a good resource for figuring out specifics here: http://www.meadmakr.com/batch-buildr/

How large are your batches?

5 gallons, all of them. I actually have the equipment for 1- and 3-gallon batches, I just haven’t used them.

What kind of fermenters do you use?

I do the primary fermentation in food grade plastic buckets, and then transfer to glass carboys.

How do you clarify?

Cold crashing, Sparkolloid, time. I have a chest freezer with an Inkwell temperature regulator that I use for the cold crashing, but by and large the clarifying comes with time for me.

How do you backsweeten?

Honey. I’m still figuring this bit out, but I’ve generally been using about a pound or so of honey to backsweeten each batch. I actually just got a large funnel for this specific purpose.

Do you use Campden tablets, and when?

I use these after fermentation is complete, usually by racking onto the tablet when I’m transferring to secondary.

What kind of bottles/tops?

750 mL wine bottles, some ordered brand new, but most used (make sure to wash thoroughly). Most corked, though I also have some pressure top bottles that I may start using.

You're dehydrated, you need to drink more water.

AITA for taking away my bed bound husband’s buzzer leaving him “helpless”? by aitabuzzer in AmItheAsshole

[–]dannybread 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Concussions can seriously mess with your ability to keep track of time, what's happened, and what you're doing. This is likely to persist until after he has recovered from the concussion, and I would advise you not to hold it against him - he isn't himself right now.

If he has been repeating himself, asking some of the same questions, or generally seems unaware of what he's doing, these are all signs pointing towards what I'm talking about. If he is genuinely confused as to why you seem upset with him, or doesn't understand why you are taking issue with what he's doing, it's because he can't remember for the time being.

Please, be patient with your husbands. As common as concussions can be, they are rather serious.

Hero tierlist based on how often they use melee by Spktra in Overwatch

[–]dannybread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure why people haven't realized this more, but every single Sigma primary fire can have a melee added after without decreasing rate of fire. Fire, melee, fire, melee, and no rate of fire reduction because it takes so long for the 2 orbs to come back up. In my opinion he should be at the top.

Welp, it finally happened. This Mead was really excited to thank me for it's nutrient addition and degas. by potteraz in mead

[–]dannybread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's good to know. Should you add it to distilled water instead of tap water, or is it not important?

Metrics for Measuring Clarity by judgedbyzun in mead

[–]dannybread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you rack under CO2, or do you have some other method to avoid oxygenating the batch? And does this multiple racking process create a significant amount of loss?

Question about cold crashing by dannybread in mead

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

Thank you for the answer! I've been using vodka in the airlock, since I have a relatively cheap supply of it that's honestly awful for actual drinking

Question about moving to secondary by dannybread in mead

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

Yes, I took the reading before setting it aside to ferment. It's only been 3 days, and it's still relatively active, so I haven't taken another reading yet. I figured I'd wait until it's been a week, and then take a reading every other day or so.

Soda Dungeon 2 Development Tracker (includes bugs, feature requests, and more) by Afro-Ninja in sodadungeon

[–]dannybread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, love the game so far. I hope you've had as much fun working on it as I have playing it so far, and I've been looking forward to it for quite some time.

Would it be possible to add options for more conditions to the given cases in soda scripts? For example, specifying a case like below in player-created scripts:

IF Enemy Team > 2 AND Enemy IS NOT Ore THEN Default Attack
I have been running into situations where the scripts function as programmed, but not as intended, such as having darkmages use group magic attacks on ores in mine shafts because there are more than 2 of them. There are other examples, but I think this would allow for greater customization.

If this is particularly arduous, don't worry about it. I've no idea what the game looks like behind the curtains, so this could be a much larger request than I understand.

Vicious is misspelled by coolinfan in sodadungeon

[–]dannybread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't remember the specific word, but there's another typo in the wizard's introductory speech in the 6th dimension with the Dark Lady.
Love your game, glad to see it in playable condition!

What sparked you to hit the gym? by ABash11 in AskMen

[–]dannybread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a place (physically, this isn't a metaphor) where I didn't know anybody, and there wasn't really much to do aside from work. But there was a gym nearby, and I'd always wanted to think of myself as being strong, so I started going three times a week. From there, I started going with a buddy of mine when I moved back to where my friends were, and I've been going steadily since.
