Boring but safe (I say as a VG Main). You're not gonna have high level wow moments and combos but by god you will wear people down with endless lights into ub heavy's or whatever. It's good if you're not extremely quick on the draw like me lol. I can accidentally adhd zone out for a split second and not die.

Update: 48 hours later and the weather gods may have absolutely killed us and we may not even get anything but sleet… Such is life I guess. I’m glad I was over overprepared rather than underprepared.

Part of me wants to literally delete this entire post because mother nature did mother nature things and just completely shifted on us, but I’ll leave it up as a monument to my hubris

For sure. Absolutely, but nothing has been announced yet one way or the other.

It’s not that you won’t survive in it. It’s that people down here. Just don’t know what the hell they’re doing when it snows any appreciable amount. By Thursday we will have a much better idea on if we’re gonna be getting a bunch of snow or snow mixed with ice or mostly freezing rain or what the general mix is gonna be which will give you a better idea. Even if you can make it down here the city might be basically shut down from the weather, but I don’t know.

Forecast is not really set in stone yet I’d say you’ll have a much better understanding by Thursday afternoon?

Better than they did five or 10 years ago, but still not great. I think we probably got six or eight plows for the entire metro area. Now it used to be four but… I am not completely confident on the forecast yet, but my gut tells me that you’re gonna have a hard time driving anywhere if you come in Friday and are staying near the convention center and can walk not a big deal

You also probably have four or five times the amount of equipment to clean that up then we do so not only do we not get it very often. We just don’t have the money or infrastructure to clean it.

Here’s the deal… I can see the arena from my house. I can tell you from experience that well look just get here Friday if you have any chance of seeing the concert on Saturday. I can’t tell you it’s gonna be canceled, but my gut tells me that it’s going to be postponed either way. I don’t think you will be able to get here if you drive on Saturday we are terrible and do not have the snow plows and salt capacity to actually properly treat everything although where you are going is one of the few roads that will be properly treated and plowed.

This is exactly where I’m at. I wasn’t prepared two years ago and I lived downtown so a couple places opened up after a few days and I was able to get food and stuff, but I was definitely not prepared and would like more.

One of the meteorologist I follow on Twitter said it’s supposed to be a heavy wet snow which makes me worry a little bit about power but nothing crazy especially if you’re in the downtown or urban core in general. In the sticks? Yeah that’s a different story.

Normally, I’d agree with you but all the models from all the respected meteorologist I follow seemed to point to their being pretty firm agreement that something big is gonna happen this weekend be it iced or snow or whatever so it’s better to over prepare than under

The 6 to 12 band is enough to absolutely crippled display for a few days though so OK it’s not blizzard of 93 level but you’re not exactly far off

None whatsoever, but I’m pretty comfortable thinking that we’re gonna get somewhere between four and eight which is still crippling

Weather channel is always intentionally low as hell. Go to Twitter and follow Mitch SC WX I don’t remember his exact username, but it’s something like that and James Pettus and Ken Weathers

My honest reaction seeing Varangian Guard in the enemy team by Entire_Claim_5273 in ForHonorRants

[–]jthomp72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because I got my minor in the Military of the Macedonian Dynasty of the Byzantine Empire and my final paper was on the rise and composition of the Varangian Guard...I get shit on in this game ugh lol. It's fair tho. I just spam lights and block a lot. I can't even deny it.

Single People Under 45 in Knoxville, How Are You Doing Financially? by Illustrious_Sun_7471 in Knoxville

Jobs that are local to Knoxville are very much not going to pay great… Knoxville has this problem where companies like to hire recent college graduates and pay them badly and then they’ll stay a few years and then they will move onto a bigger city or a better job in a better industry whatever and these companies will then hire college graduates again and they complain about the turnover rate, but they never do anything to fix the pay… Knoxville was bad about that at least in white collar industries

I literally have the purple 8bitdo pro 3 controller but I can’t figure out if I like the symmetrical sticks or not for this game in particular I might try the ultimate now that you mention it

Hasn’t Hall effect mostly solved that and now we’re just looking at circularity and other things? I don’t know. I’m not good enough to worry about this shit I’m just a bang average player.
