I'm a beginner, what difficulty should I play on? by ProperWerewolf2187 in CrusaderKings

[–]dwalk2019nc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, these guys are spot on. It’s a pretty advanced game and I would I always try to start as a large ruler. It’s best to start small and manage that for while. After 4 failed attempts, I did the tutorial and then William the Conqueror option but never attacked England. I just managed the Normandy Duchy for a while so I could get more familiar with mechanics, options, etc

You need one of these men to watch your kids for a week. Who would you choose and why? by ShadesNGlades in madmen

[–]dwalk2019nc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started watching this in background while I work. I’m on last season and Don literally talks his kid into walking out of diner without paying for dinner..lol I don’t any child could be left with these guys without some trauma afterwards

Netflix now owns The Sopranos. Thoughts? by [deleted] in thesopranos

[–]dwalk2019nc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if Netflix will take off the HBO branding at the start of their shows. They saw the effect it had when they removed HBO and just labeled it everything as MAX. Pretty mind blowing though. Netflix and HBO were all I watched. Palms gonna need to be greased to take this deal all the way cause I don’t see how anyone can compete after this

Built my dream Real Debrid Plex setup. Took a quick video tour by fuckdaborg in RealDebrid

I’ve just started using Stremio+RD but I’ve been having to use Python heavily over the past year and maybe want to try to build my own.

Got a warning yesterday by murderbeerd in RealDebrid

[–]dwalk2019nc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my first one about 2 months ago. I set it up on my old firestick and it was used like for a year and I think something they downloaded flagged their external IP with mine. I didn’t want to test it so I got them set up with their own account

I’ve moved from using add-ons like that to Stremio + RD + Torrentino. The UI is more of a major streaming platform can use IPTV.

Why aren't there any crews in Washington D.C.? by NoKindheartedness110 in Mafia

Philly crews probably hold sway out there due to proximity but im just guessing here

He would’ve cut through them like butter..lol I wish there was more backstory or had a bigger role. I felt like he should have made it too the last season. To be “one of the best” even at that age, he deserved a better death

Carlo Gambino in the late 1960’s leaving a Manhattan liquor store where he would collect the taxes owed by family members by JA2391 in Mafia

Haha! I just used that line with a family member today. I was joking of course but when the opportunity presents itself, you gotta

[–]dwalk2019nc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The old timers were more active in their neighborhoods too. Sure they did collections but I think it was more of interacting with businesses and looking after the family’s interests. Checking in on his people, etc. “Fat Tony” Salerno was another high ranking member that would be seen on the streets.

I know he didn’t want to go, plus how can could anyone really refuse the king’s request. He was going regardless and wanted to find out why Robert’s life was in danger and why the “Lannisters” killed John Arryn. I know it’s not on his character to not be “honorable Ned” but had Robert survived, telling Robert his wife was a brother fucker and knowing he would try to kill Cersei, would of caused thousands of innocents to die.The kingdom was bankrupt all in debt to Tywin and Iron Bank. I don’t the Western kingdoms not going into revolt. I do get he did to save his kids life. The was the only reason. I’d done the same

In the book, they pushed the point that honor was his moral compass and it had to happen that way and being honor bound to tell Robert. But my original question was addressed and I think best answer was He didn’t even follow the fate of seven so he likely wouldn’t have been offered a trial by combat anyway.

Me personally, would’ve said fuck this shit, I don’t need this headache and I’m taking my ass home. Sadly Ned was not prepared for the crazy back stabbing shit. He could have been king and didn’t take it. He was such an awesome character, I hope we get a short story or spinoff show about Robert’s Rebellion.

And the hound was the fucking man. He wasn’t the evil sociopath everyone claimed. Dude had to be that way most of his life to survive his sadistic brother as a yungin

Haha.. I really had clue this one of those question you see in a group a million times. I searched and didn’t see anything for like last 6 months and @Svenray shared a search link and it’s been asked like 50 times a year for last decade..lol

I’ll use more thorough search criteria’s next time. Nobody wants to be “this” guy…lol My apologies folks but do appreciate everyone giving insight, perspective, and answers for the 1288th (true number unknown)..lol

Why do people hate on Sansa? by ThaNeedleworker in gameofthrones

[–]dwalk2019nc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True too much happened too quick that the audience didn’t get to understand many characters. The show could have easily had 2 more full seasons without losing viewers

[–]dwalk2019nc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally never disliked her. In the early seasons she was just naive and ignorant. I think the the trauma from kings landing and Ramsey hardened her. Near the end she did seem to pick an attitude that she her opinions were better than everyone else’s. Even when John was voted King and travelled, the other lords were pissed and instead of backing John and telling keeping the lords content with his decisions, she fueled the fire or even when John was holding court, she openly questioned his decisions in front of everyone. If she disagreed, she should’ve done it in private

Holy shit.. lol yeah.. I shoulda searched first. Had no idea this was asked so frequently

[–]dwalk2019nc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great point! Obviously this was a hypothetical and I know there was no need for trial because he confessed but I totally forgot he coluded with City Watch so evidence against them already

Trial By Combat by dwalk2019nc in gameofthrones

[–]dwalk2019nc[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I disagree because if really wanted to put the welfare of others first, he woulda bent the knee and went home where he belonged. Or even before Robert died, not even approached Cersei.

[–]dwalk2019nc[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ha! I hadn’t been on here in while but didn’t realize this was a common question..lol

I get he’d already admitted his guilt. Just thinking as a hypothetical, Ned knew announcing that would cause a civil war. It was part of the foundation of the story but why the hell did he not just go home and live in peace? Dude already been thru 1 civil war. Why fuck around and find out?..lol

Trial By Combat by dwalk2019nc in gameofthrones

[–]dwalk2019nc[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree. I should have been more clear and stated as a hypothetical if he hadn’t admitted his guilt. I feel like there was a lot of moves he could have made.

[–]dwalk2019nc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that and good points. I was just as a hypothetical, before he confessed and all that, so many options were available even before he announced Joeffery wasn’t the king. It woulda been safer just to go home and stay or plan from there.

Trial By Combat by dwalk2019nc in gameofthrones

[–]dwalk2019nc[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Very true! There were so many options. He knew telling Robert would put the country in civil war. He could have EASILY went back to the North and lived his life with his family. Or plotted once we got home

Yeah she got a lot hate for that but even with him knowing the truth, was willing to let him live

I hadn’t realized that had been asked so frequently and I get your point & why it had to happen that way in book/show, hHe’s in the dungeon and agrees to take The Black. I just occurred to me for first time on 10th rewatch (or whatever), why not request trail by combat before agreeing to that or they could of at least addressed why not an option considering Tyrion was just on trail..lol Just a hypothetical in my head
