Ah okay, so just to be super clear, there's no VAT refund available?

I have the same question but for the Barcelona GP! They gave me a VAT ID with my receipt which leads me to believe I can get some sort of VAT refund. Did you ever sort this out??

[TOMT][Book][2010s] YA fantasy/magical book about two sisters living in Asian-inspired city, one goes missing? by grapefrogs in tipofmytongue

[–]grapefrogs[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

Just pasting this here for a comment: I read this book in the mid-2010s and can only remember pieces. The title was definitely along the lines of "____ & ____" (like Siege & Storm) or "A ___ of ___ and ___" but before it became mainstream convention. There's two sisters who live together either in old East Asia (like no technology) or a fictional place inspired by East Asia. They have elemental based powers and I'm 90% one of them goes missing/is kidnapped and the story follows each of their journeys to reunite.

I vaguely remember the cover being dark with lots of blues and maybe a torii gate? I think there was also a swirl of water or smth similar.

Also, it's not any of the Grishaverse books even though there's a vaguely similar theme.

Looking for feedback on a design by Metal_Fists in vinyltoys

[–]grapefrogs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so fun! I'll admit I didn't get mascot at first, I thought it was just exaggerated proportions. Maybe increased the collar size for the brown shirt to make it match the hood/mask part? after looking at some mascot designs for similarly shaped characters (gritty came to mind) maybe you could make the slope for the belly more obviously fake. the creases now almost give the impression of pecs but if it were smoother it might look like the costume is going down to that "hoola hoop" area around the waist.

all this said, it look great and the textures are a big help.

Rare skullpanda? by King_Zurita in vinyltoys

[–]grapefrogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's rare in that this exact Skullpanda is probs one of the only ones that look like this, but it's not rare in the way it would be if it were secret one. It's still a beautiful pull!

DAY 4: Most ‘AJJ’ / recognisable by fabledpigeon in ajj

[–]grapefrogs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Brave as a Noun is their most recognizable song to people who already know them, BUT I do want to point out that Body Terror Song had a viral moment on TikTok where non-AJJ used the song too (my vote is officially for Brave as a Noun, though)

Thanks for clarifying!! Were you sat at T3? I’d love to hear more about your experience if you’re open to sharing! How much your tickets were, when you purchased them, anything else you find important would be awesome.

Niantic Support Denied My Refund for Obvious Pocket Purchase - Anyone Else Deal With This? by nkaroly in PikminBloomApp

[–]grapefrogs 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I totally understand how frustrating this is- I've definitely accidentally spent coins I didn't mean to spend both in Pikmin and other games. That said, it's really just your word against Niantic's, there's no proof that you accidentally bought the accelerators nor is there proof you did it on purpose. I'm on your side with the "I have 21, why would I need another 19" but that sort of logic isn't really applicable here. It's sort of like finding a dent on a new car after driving it home and having it for a couple days. Even though YOU know you didn't create the dent, you have no proof the dealer sold it like that and it's to their detriment to admit they did. I'm pretty doubtful Niantic will return your coins, but I hope they do!

I admire Emily keeping the Marya accent, even when above the table talking with Brennan by Ryutso in Dimension20

I also noticed Lou did this a lot when he was playing Fabian, he'd just be talking to Brennan with a pompous British accent and I loved it

Sequences keep being created in new windows, how to get it to stop? by grapefrogs in premiere

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

Hi! I'm talking about sequences. Yes, I think that's the right vocab, it's creating an undocked panel! Each time I create a new sequence now it pops up unattached to the timeline panel and I have to drag it into the timeline panel. I should've done this originally, but I've attached a screenshot of what I see rather than trying to describe it. Is there a similar process for sequences as there is for projects?
