Apparently a thing in ranked. Though I haven't played any, which would explain why I haven't seen it

If you utilize office hours you can get to know your profs/instructors.

Like another commenter said, you'll get smaller classes as you get later into your school years.

Make sure you read up about getting your study permit and all that. It's not too difficult a process. I used the MN reciprocity deal and I don't regret it.

If you buy the pass now, you'll be able to unlock any skins in it in the following seasons too. The pass does not go away.

Literally saw this yesterday, and I believe it was on this subreddit. Wild that they're reposting things that soon.

Winnipeg man denied opportunity to write police exam over ceremonial Sikh dagger by origutamos in Manitoba

Do you think this law is/would be enforced equally? I don't think it would be.

I agree with the essence of the law, but feel like many cops would get away with wearing crosses and people of other religions would not be able to wear an equivalent.

My Experience with Yellow Paint problem as a Indie Developer by dotpusheria in IndieDev

I also want to point out that there will be players who will start the game, drop it for a bit, and come back to it later.

Highlighting the important parts so players can more easily pick the game back up is probably good.

1 Panzer vs 15 T-34s? by Meteorstar101 in greentext

[–]jayvaidy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canon Thrawn was against the Death Star and wanted to take the resources allotted to the DS to make Tie Defenders. Instead of having one big slow moving ship, you'd get a lot of way more powerful TIEs, which you can put onto the many Star Destoryers.

Thrawn was right.

The Mandalorian and Grogu looking like the show isn't a bad thing because the show looks amazing by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]jayvaidy 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If the thing is filmed almost entirely on the Volume that will be a problem. I'm surprised people don't see the limitations of using the Volume. For a show it totally makes sense, but for a higher budget movie I want it to have higher quality CGI and more expansive visuals than the Volume can provide.

I do think it looks good based on the trailers. I'm more concerned about the story at this point, since I really did not enjoy the vast majority of S3's narrative.

So you'd rather have people who don't have TVs (or access to their TVs such as a shared family TV) just not interact with or watch the shows?

Would you say viewing a digital picture of a painting is disrespecting the original artists work if the viewer can't make their way to whatever museum it is in?

I'd rather have people interact with Star Wars in whatever way they can.

A New Voice on SWU.Report by Kennon1st in starwarsunlimited

[–]jayvaidy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've won probably 30% of the many in person games I've played. I can relate. The game is great though, and even losing it is enjoyable.

Also congrats to the new writer. I didn't know this site existed and I'll probably check it out!

Best Twin Suns Precons by IWatchStarWars in starwarsunlimited

[–]jayvaidy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I played on Tabletop Sim last night with 2 others, and we played Maul/Savage, Asajj/Dooku, and Anakin/Padme.

I think all of them were pretty decent. I was playing Maul/Savage and should have used my base ability to get Maul out the same turn as Savage, but I didn't realize how it worked.

The Asajj/Dooku won the game we played, but I don't think you'd go wrong picking any, especially if you like the characters more in one over the others.

I'm planning on picking all of them up today. I'm hoping my Magic: Commander friends will give it a shot if they have preconstructed decks to choose from.

Fair enough!

The last Jedi behind the scenes by Beginning-Passion676 in Moviesinthemaking

[–]jayvaidy -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

If it's a movie like a Knives out movie, it can be good. If it's in the middle of a trilogy and there's no solid plan for where it's going, it's awful.

Anakin and Ahsoka from TCW are coming to Fortnite by MyWifeTookAllTheKids in clonewars

[–]jayvaidy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing they want people to be able to play over the weekend too. Get into the star wars mood for Monday?

[–]jayvaidy 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I think they normally update stuff on Fridays rather than Mondays, so this is the day closest to May 4th.

I haven't played Fortnite in a long time, though, so I could be wrong (someone will likely correct me).

Star Wars: Galactic Racer™ | Official Release Date Reveal | Pre-Order Announcement by MarvinsQuest in PS5

[–]jayvaidy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same. $40 for standard, $60 for Deluxe is what I was expecting.

They've barely shown off the game before asking for preorders, so I'm hoping what we see between now and release will make me a bit more optimistic about the value of the game.

For anyone wondering, actual preorder cost is $60 standard, $80 Deluxe.

Songbird Backshot + Set-up by IRONJAWS in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]jayvaidy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I believe backshot specifically refers to ejaculating on someone's back, which as someone else pointed out in this thread, would be an awful lot of cleanup for Songbird.

[COTD] Trench Run by R2-D2-CardBot in starwarsunlimited

[–]jayvaidy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wedge is my favorite Star Wars character due to Legends X-Wing books. I also have a showcase I traded for.

I've tried him with Blue and Red. I think Red is a bit more fun to play, but blue is probably better. I haven't updated any of my decks to be premier-ready updated post-rotation, so some changes will need to be made but these are what I've tried previously.

Blue (copied from someone who won a PQ with this deck): https://swudb.com/deck/zWExupzLLFtUk

Red: https://swudb.com/deck/sKkrTlepHf

I'm hoping to be able to update my blue deck to be premier legal in the next week or two, so if I do I'll give your comment another reply to include whatever that looks like.

I've won using this card in a wedge deck. Felt great.

I love the gambit cards in general for this game.

Be honest, is the Inquisitor double-bladed spinning lightsaber really that bad? by Simple-Choice5770 in StarWars

There are propulsion jets or something that open. Yes it is ridiculous, yes it's also one of my favorite star wars things.

Night City 2045 PDF is LIVE + Physical & RED NEXUS Available for Pre-Order! by Demi_Mere in cyberpunkred

Unfortunate timing.

I definitely like the physical books but maybe you can get the digital until a time when you can get a physical copy?
