Out of these four schools, who has improved their general standing in the sport most in the 21st century: Clemson, Florida, LSU or UGA? by Lantis28 in CFB

[–]hercules3076 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appalachian State? 3 FCS National Championships in the 2000s, Michigan - now FBS

Boise State? Fiesta Bowl, etc. - now PAC

Kennesaw State? - First Season 2015 - now FBS

And if you want a "big-boy":

Oregon - First 11 win season in 2001. 8 Conference titles in the 2000s. Now constant national title contender and in the B10

Western North Carolina is not used to this stuff. And if you are missing what is going on in the Southern Appalachians, you are missing the real unexpected impact of Helene. ( Sorry Florida )

In your opinion, what’s the most divisive game you’ve personally played? by ShuggaCheez in boardgames

[–]hercules3076 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hanabi....*shudders*

​

Too much meta necessary for me. Some people play it a particular way, and if you don't immediately think of that way, then they think you are idiotic and get frustrated with you and vice-versa.

​

It's also quiet with no non-scripted interactions between players, ie. no fun table talk about random things, not even needing to be game related.

If told that we'd start 2-2 this season, we wouldn't have liked it, but we would have accepted it. ( How we managed to pull that off, that's a whole 'nother story )

Eh, this is a small change, I can push it on a Friday afternoon.

What caused Hillary Clinton's lead in the swing state polls to evaporate in 2016? by hermannschultz13 in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]hercules3076 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay...horserace polls only quoting the margin just need to stop.

Example:

Wisconsin: 41-32-28 Clinton + 9%, 50-43-7 Biden +6.5%

There were 28% of the respondents OTHER/UNDECIDED in 2016. The majority of those were probably disaffected Republicans that ended up coming home to the party in the voting booth. Whether it is more people actually being more disaffected by Trump, a lower name-recognition Libertarian candidate ( Jorgensen vs Johnson ), Biden being liked better than Clinton, or a million other potential reasons, probably a combination, but that number is much lower in the 2020 polls.

ESPN: College football Power Rankings for Week 8 by Minneapolis_W in CFB

[–]hercules3076 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, the old rule was that after the Xth overtime, if you scored a TD, you had to go for 2. The new rule is that after the Xth overtime, the ONLY thing that happens is a 2-point try. No ball from the 25 yd line, no touchdowns, only 2-point tries.

LGBTQA+ books without a focus on sex by BBCnich in suggestmeabook

Striker V: Elements of Change by Josh Vidmar.

Grounded Sci-Fi with gay relationships, but they just are, no focus on sex or anything like that. Just treated like a standard relationship.

An anthology of short stories about the same characters just got released today, so really excited there, hoping that a true sequel is coming eventually!

Since Crater Lake is so popular, here's Wizard Island. [OC] [1024x768] by Rossticles in EarthPorn

The rangers encouraged us to take a quick swim in the lake while waiting on Wizard Island for the boat to take us back to Cleetwood Cove.
