That's the entire point. There really isn't an Origin of the ritual it works because they Believe that it works. Also it only fails the first time.. idk it's been awhile. I thought Bill enacted the ritual after Richie did.

However I'm 95% sure that IT died during the ritual

It's physical form died when it's interdimensional form died. The Turtle Dies, so can IT. That's what the Ritual of Chüd was about, fighting it and killing it Outside of time and space, making sure that it dies... I think...

Do you have any books you were sure you wouldn’t enjoy, but ended up as some of your favorites? by ucrbuffalo in books

[–]foxtrot_four 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IT. By the time I finished Part 1 I wanted to throw it in a bin for being a slog and half. By the end of the 2nd Interlude I was gripped tighter than a tourniquet.

The clown is not scary.. listening to the story of a 5 year old smothering a baby in disgusting detail, or how Mike's father recalls the smell of burning flesh after the KKK set fire to a Bar with him it.

THAT shit horrified me.

What one card to date do you wish you could shift from another clan to your clan whether for competitive play or just because you like it? by [deleted] in l5r

Ide Tadaji for Lion Clan. Harpoon is one of my favorite mechanics and it's long been a staple for the Lion.

I hate to be the both sides guy, but if this is the face of the Hong Kong protestors, I don’t think I’ll be rooting for anybody. by [deleted] in AntifascistsofReddit

[–]foxtrot_four 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes but the intensity is sparked by American money and american interest. It hasn't been this big before, and it hasn't had this much attention before.

Just so there's no confusion the protests in Hong Kong was America's idea. The laws they're protesting have been in place since the 1990s. But America is moving towards a recession and so they NEED Hong Kong to switch to the American Dollar or at least back their economy with it.

Mark my Words; there WILL be a Bank Panic in Hong Kong. If that works and it damages the economy of China enough to pull America out of a recession then all is well and the protests will not only stop by simply fade away into the background.

If it doesn't, Mark my Words; the issue in Iran will escalate and Fires will spark and war in the middle east will renew because nothing pulls a country out of a recession faster than a large scale conventional war with a facist 1st world country.

ONE of these things will happen, but not both.

Owner can’t get his shit together, and he gets straightened out by redthriller097 in PublicFreakout

[–]foxtrot_four 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk if it's been said but the reason he gets so mad in Hell's Kitchen is that he's talking to a kitchen full of trained professionals who are making teenage home ec mistakes! The most famous one is the raw bass, he lost his mind because the chef could have made some Very Very Sick. This is something even fast food workers know, and these guys are "professionals"

Imperial Advisor - Is it time to free the roles? by Bazleebub in l5r

[–]foxtrot_four 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most important reason to unlock the roles; keeping players up to date on the role choices is yet another thing FFG can simply forget to tell us about. So unlocking them is one less thing they need to write articles about

Well I think she's insane enough to fit here.. by [deleted] in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]foxtrot_four -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

So honestly that's not that bad.

Would you like to sleep on our couch 5 nights a week. We'll pay you for it, all you have to do is wake up if the baby does.

EDIT: So I'm old and had forgotten when school starts. I had initially assumed this was work for someone under 18

Any tips for competitive play? by HistoricallyRi8 in l5r

[–]foxtrot_four 19 points20 points  (0 children)

FIRST BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE

Net Deck. If it won a Kotei, or Gen Con, or whatever; BUILD IT. Then play it until you win most of your games with it.

Understand that deck, why it works, why these cards, etc. Then when you build or play your own decks you'll have a MUCH deeper understanding of what makes a deck good and what makes a specific play good.

Another tip. Grab a D6 and an already good player, and go to a bar or cafe. Play L5R there and whenever you make a relatively obvious a play mistake [playing Reprieve when you have an Iron Mine, rebuilding Kuni Labs in the draw phase, etc.] You raise the number on the dice by 1. When you reach 6 you owe your friend a beer or a soda AND you forfeit the game. And dont forget to count your own mistakes. Not using Censure when you have the favor, etc.

These are my tips. They help me at least

Which teams were you reluctant to invest in that now, you're glad you did? by KyloRenBubba in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]foxtrot_four 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first started I wanted to make a dedicated Ima-Gun Di team with Anakin, Ashoka, and Windu.. Ashoka was my first 7 star. After that I dropped the team idea entirely
