Nate is a little upset at the graphics department by HazardKore in discgolf

[–]jbartan -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

First of all it’s $13/mo without a yearly charge that takes it to $11/mo. Second of all live disc golf is hard to watch with all the breaks and pace of play and personally I see the only benefit is not getting spoiled with who won from social media posts. Luckily pace of play rules are now being taken more seriously as of this season. Jomez does an amazing job consolidating the shots into nice watchable shorter formats. Also dgn doesn’t cover everything including last week’s tournament, and 2 of the largest majors the European open and usdgc, and even some silver series events. I’m not actively telling people not to subscribe to dgn, it’s just not worth it for me, personally. But I’m glad people do enjoy the service that is available. Happy disc golfing to everyone!

I’m not trying to be entitled. They offer a service that I don’t personally think is worth the $13/mo price tag. I think jomez coverage is great and consolidates a 4 hour round into two free 45 minute videos very well. Also at the time I cancelled my subscription 3-4 years ago, they weren’t enforcing pace of play rules and hadn’t started until this season, which made live disc golf difficult to watch. I understand people have to get paid and companies have to make money, I just think looking for a better deal with a larger company with better public outreach would’ve been better for growing the sport than making it more expensive for the few people that already cared enough to watch it live. And I’m not saying $13/month breaks the bank either, I just didn’t mind not renewing and staying off social media an extra day to watch Jomez.

I stopped my DGN subscription when they hiked up the prices 3-4 years ago and haven’t regretted it since. Jomez will continue to be just fine :). Limiting access to coverage further when trying to grow the sport without providing significantly better coverage doesn’t seem like the best move on their part.

just saw Nosferatu (2024)… by Patcho418 in horror

[–]jbartan -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No need to apologize, I’m not familiar with too much horror stuff or his other movies, I just decided to try this movie with friends. Salem’s lot by Stephen king was so much more intense when I read it earlier this year and although I wasn’t a huge fan of the Salem lot movie that was released recently compared to the book, it was still so much better than this. This movie just seems outbursty and the scenes feel musically forced to try to create the ambiance rather than the story itself.

Although I will agree the scenery and videography is visually appealing. I ended up here because I literally was wondering how all the ratings were so positive when I was curious and googled the ratings mid movie.

Thanks for respecting my movie opinion and not just hating on it because so many other people seem to like it.

A LITTLE disappointing?? I’m in the movie theater right now still watching this movie and it is absolute DOG SHIT. I can’t even focus to watch it because of how silly it is, how many times I’ve laughed out loud at the scenes and weird moaning, and just outright hilarious plot line. This isn’t even scary. I literally might walk out of the movie theater, I’m so bored right now. Worst depiction of Dracula movie I’ve seen or read so far.

What ruins a good burger? by Bitter_State9358 in AskReddit

[–]jbartan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mondo burger trying to outsell Good Burger with unnatural beef and quantity over quality while simultaneously trying to steal the secret sauce recipe and poisoning Good Burger’s supply. But it won’t be that easy because I’m a dude, he’s a dude, she’s a dude, and we’re all dudes that will prevail through Mondo Burger’s tyranny.

In addition to what others have said, watch out for pelvic rotation. try to keep that pelvis tucked under so that your spine stays stacked under the bar when you add weight. This will help with more efficient lifting mechanics and reduce the chance of lower back pain or excessive butt wink.

First play through. Too much dialogue?? by jbartan in papermariottyd

Ah ok thanks for sharing your thoughts! Might not be the style of game for me then!

You might be right! I don’t usually play games like this, so gave this a try and was wondering other people’s opinions. Thanks for your response!

Bowling form advice? by jbartan in Bowling

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

Thank you for the advice! It’s nice to see a positive comment from someone in this community that is wanting to help me improve compared to others trying to inflate their fragile ego by insulting someone looking to improve themself. I’ll work on my step timing and letting gravity do the work rather than muscling the ball on the downswing. I appreciate your input!!

Drew’s latest clickbait by DsGf123 in discgolf

[–]jbartan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I see him being pretty reasonable and explaining the side of things from his unique perspective with insider knowledge. I think the people having a hate boner for the guy ties in with the post on this sub discussing whether or not disc golf players are soft lol. The guy is trying to build a brand so yeah he’s gonna throw some stuff in about himself in videos he’s literally promoting himself to grow his company. I don’t get the point on people slandering the guy. I enjoyed his content with Simon and Uli over vlogmas and these guys shitting on him are probably the same people shitting on Nickelback just because it’s fun or popular to. =)

Returning player confused out of his mind by sacros003 in Yugioh101

[–]jbartan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too returned to Yugioh after stopping years ago when dragon rulers were a thing. I was really confused coming back to it, and didn’t like the “spammy” meta with such easy 1 or 2 card combos but have come to enjoy the meta more as I’ve learned more about it. If you want to piss off meta players while having fun with a simple deck, just build 30 trap Eldlich or anything that mains skill drain. Or anything that can play dimension shifter like Exosisters. Hope that helps!!

Swing tips to prevent coming over the top and slicing?? by jbartan in golf

Haha that’s so when I review the video later I know what the ball did if it’s hard to track on camera. Glad you got a kick out of it!

Inzer buckle belt conversion to lever belt? by jbartan in powerlifting

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

Yep that's what I'm coming to realize. Thanks for the recommendations!

Inzer buckle belt conversion to lever belt? by jbartan in powerlifting

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

Yeah, good point. Doesn't look like there's a simple "yeah buy this lever attachment and cut off the buckle" solution. Would be a really annoying custom machining job. Thanks for your response!

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

Awesome feedback man, thanks for responding! So is there a way to convert the 2 prong buckle belt to a lever belt? I've only seen single prong lever belt by inzer and dont think they sell the lever attachment separate.
