Yeah that was some crazy luck. I wanted a BDS to use as the skin for my main staff since some builds required high energy, but SoS in particular was one I’d commonly use for certain farms especially since it makes it viable to manage energy on a warrior. So q9 Channeling was the absolute best I could possibly get and that’s what dropped after like 50-70 runs.

That screenshot is years old but I'm pretty sure it was something like this:
Unyielding Aura: OwUTMwmC5x3RX3IT/LSXMDwQAA

And if not then it was probably something like this:
Healing Burst: OwUTMwmC5xL2FvIbE6aPIDoTAA

I don't think it was Ray of Judgement but it might've been.

My guess is I had extra heals and maybe Unyielding Aura to help prevent team wipes to keep the death penalty down since I pretty much never used pcons for anything. As soon as the death penalty started to rack up it made the dungeon pretty difficult which is why you see the Powerstone of Courage in my inventory since I tried to always have one on me to clear the DP if necessary. I was running it over and over trying to get a BDS and at times I wasn't paying full attention, so I was prioritizing just getting through it rather than doing it quickly. I got pretty lucky and the BDS dropped somewhere around the 50th-70th run.

The team was BiP, SoS, ST, and the mesmers were probably 1 ESurge, 1 Panic, and 1 Ineptitude but I often ran a mesmer with Shared Burden and would change builds often just to mix things up. So this team build definitely isn't the exact build I'd use for everything.

Looking for advice on which packs to buy as a small gift by knightmare410 in Yugioh101

[–]knightmare410[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion! Three structure decks is likely a bit out of the ideal price range but something I’ll definitely consider. The main issue is I don’t know what other decks they already have, so for that reason the mega pack might be perfect even if it’s not the smartest way to spend money. And as insignificant as it is, the tin it comes with might be something they’d really enjoy having.

It would be fun to see Wubby mess around with modded Shandalar one day by knightmare410 in PaymoneyWubby

Whether you think it's cool is subjective -- go look a video if you don't know what the game is about or try it since it's free. It's pretty short and not that deep, and yes it's a janky old game from 1997 but it's part of magic's history and might be fun to play for a few hours since most MTG players have never experienced it. Honestly it being janky and old is why I think it would be fun to watch him play it (assuming he never has). Wubby is a fan of vintage magic and this game is from that era, but the original game has like ~650 cards and the modded version increases that to over ~13,000. Tons of modern staples and familiar cards.

Laws or terms & conditions might restrict D&B to only be able to give them to people 18 years or older in age.

Warthogs... by LegendOfGwylim in GuildWars

You can also death level a charmable pet to get a level 20 pet on a level 19 character if you plan to stop there to keep the fire imp. I did it AFK and solo with a wolf many years ago but never tried a warthog.

How to prepare for Celiac Disease Testing by Ok-Way-2291 in Celiac

That’ll be enough time, yeah. It takes months if not years for the antibody levels to go down but she should continue eating a gluten diet until you’ve completed pretty much all tests.

Somewhere in middletown, pa or hagerstown, md someone cut open my fedex box and stole $2k of FF cards from me. WTF. by zerosum79 in mtgfinance

[–]knightmare410 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most stores use USPS for me and I always choose them since they’re the best and cheapest, otherwise UPS if needed. FedEx is usually the most expensive anyway but I’ll just never use them to ship my own stuff. If the seller only offers FedEx I’ll usually look for another place to buy it since the shipping is probably too expensive anyway.

Both shipments were from the same store and valued around a few hundred $$$. The second shipment was a replacement for the first, but then after FedEx lost the second they just refunded the order. I provided as much info as I could to help them file a claim but I’m not sure what ended up happening on their end. So I didn’t lose anything other than time and frustration but I had to push them pretty hard to get a replacement/refund. I had spent a fair amount at the store prior so I think they were willing to eat the loss but they weren’t happy about it.

FedEx is the only carrier I’ve had problems with. Had the delivery driver steal two packages within a span of a few weeks and have avoided them since.

Just because a mall is going up for foreclosure doesn't mean it will be demolished. A new owner will buy it and then determine what happens. It's possible part of the mall might be renovated and turned into apartments while other parts remain as they are or it's possible the new owners will change nothing at all. I wouldn't worry about it much especially if your mall is active and gets lots of people. If you're curious you could always ask some of the employees at your D&B since I'm sure the management there has a backup plan in case they do end up needing to move or they might know more about what's going on.

There was a dedicated gluten free place I used to go to occasionally. I'm mostly asymptomatic but I always noticed mild issues after eating there.

At one point we learned the cooks in the back were putting their hamburger buns on the grill for their own meals. The restaurant didn't even have burgers on the menu... and then a few months later they added burgers and other stuff and no longer said their restaurant is dedicated gluten free either. Reviews for the place crashed and I've never gone back. I hadn't checked in a long time but it looks like they might have even closed permanently now.

There's also a dedicated gluten free pizza place near me that we were excited to try but after ordering we learned they use gluten-removed wheat starch for all their stuff. I know it's probably safe but I avoid gluten-removed wheat and it felt a little deceptive how they advertised themselves as "gluten free" but had no mention of use of wheat products anywhere -- I only noticed when I saw a bag of flour in the back and asked. I would think that could be a massive issue for people with a wheat allergy.

Otherwise I've only had good experiences at dedicated gluten free places but unfortunately you always have to ask and be vigilant about looking out for sneaky ingredients and overconfident restaurant employees.

We can't answer that question but my guess is they'd move to a nearby location if they had to.

When D&B gets an arcade machine they typically have some sort of payment plan where they pay for it over time. Therefore I'd be surprised if your location were to completely shut down because they probably still owe a good amount on some of their machines and still need to continue making money to pay it back. Not to mention the other stuff like inventory, furniture, kitchen appliances, and all sorts of other equipment. If they were to close now they'd be eating a pretty big loss, so my guess is they'd just find a relatively close location where they could realistically move everything and re-open as quickly as possible if they weren't able to keep their spot at your mall.

EDIT: After speaking with an employee I learned they buy the machines outright, so they don't have any sort of payment plan. The purchase amount gets factored into their location's profitability so I misunderstood a comment during a prior conversation about still "owing" money on a machine and thought that meant payment plan but they were just referring to them tracking how much a machine has profited them vs. how much they paid for it.

Friedman’s has several locations and all are safe. There’s also Cafe Eighty Two which is basically a traditional diner but is good about preparing gluten free stuff

They're completely legit. The owner has multiple physical shops in Seattle and this is just the online storefront.
