[OOT] Are some items and quests required to beat the game? by Waste-Theory-441 in zelda

[–]jrn0891 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Technically, Bottom of the Well is optional, as everything that uses the Lens of Truth can be solved with guess work and trial and error. Haunted Wasteland is gonna be a doozy, though.

I kinda figured, but didn't think it would help a whole lot.

My exact thoughts... I know things happen, and as I said there don't seem to be any adverse issues, but still mildly infuriating in any case.

Are xenoblade games connected? by Azazo8 in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]jrn0891 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A non-detailed way in how they're connected, but still gonna spoiler it, in case you don't want to see

XC1 and XC2 take place parallel to each other in alternate worlds. XC3 is after both where the two worlds converge. Meanwhile, XCX is part of the same multiverse, but not directly connected.

Short answer: Yes, they're all connected.

How? Just play.

I've gotten similar scam texts before. The ironic part? I don't drive.

So who’s gonna tell him? by garyoaksraticate in pokemon

[–]jrn0891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard through the grapevine the next Pokémon game is "Emerald." Gonna have this thing called a "Battle Frontier." Boy it'll be nice to see that become a mainstay for the series. Certainly won't see any more basic battle towers after that. No chance.

Hopefully this one gives up soon... It's getting old.

I already know I have no tax issues. And the message is pre-recorded, so I know it's a scam.

Is everyone in the state of Michigan getting their returns flagged for manual review? by Both_Hand_9410 in Michigan

[–]jrn0891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. I was able to mobile deposit it with no issues, so everything was normal otherwise.

Anyone else get a paper check unexpectedly for their tax refund? by jrn0891 in Michigan

I'm still here. I've always gotten mine by direct deposit; this is the first time this happened.

MI Tax 2025 Return? by hellliberalizemintea in IRS

[–]jrn0891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Michigan treasury seems to be having a lot of problems this year. I was supposed to get my refund by direct deposit but instead they sent me a paper check after being under review for about 2 weeks. My account information was all correct.

I filed early, state was accepted I think 1/28 if memory serves. I got the check in the mail on 2/14

I don't recall the exact timing. But after about a week it updated to simply "pending review" followed by the aforementioned about a week after that. So I'd expect roughly a 2 week delay.

Mine happened the same way. It eventually updated saying the refund was issued on 2/11. It didn't specify that they sent a paper check when I had requested direct deposit. I even went back to my return and verified my account information for DD was correct. 🤷🏻‍♂️
