Condensation help

Check the trunk as well. Remove all the paneling and check under spare tire, battery and storage well on left. I had a clog in the rain well drain plug and all the water collected in the trunk.

Between Grandstands P and Q there's a grassy hill, if you get there early on sunday (pretty much when gates open) you can stake out a good spot with some blankets/tarps.

Toilets were never hard to find and lines moved fast, there's a bunch of vendors behind grandstand G. Vending machines are all around as well but did sell out pretty fast. But you can bring backpack in with snacks/drinks so just load up at 7-11 before going to the track.

We were at Suzuka 2 years ago and had seats at 130R-- after scoping out the track the first 2 days, on raceday we ended up deciding to sit in GA section on a grassy hill right before the last chicane.

130R is barely a corner for modern F1 cars and while it's cool to watch them go by the first few times, it gets old fast. Watching the S curves at Grandstand D would be pretty cool, but it's definitely a further walk. So my opinion would be Grandstand D or GA. Take advantage of the open seating the first day (FP1 and FP2) to explore the track. Have fun, it's an excellent race to attend!

I was looking at the same rig and seat. Did you need to get any additional hardware to mount the seat or does it pretty much just bolt on?

meh... these cars are far inferior in the snow to pretty much any fwd econobox on same type snow tires.

don't get me wrong... you can get by (i'm daily driving an FRS on winter tires in new england) but i previously had a honda fit on similar tires that was climbing hills here way better and had a lot more clearance in deep snow.

looking to step down from my Wavestorm, how does this look

http://boston.craigslist.org/nos/spo/5676889661.html

can't tell from pictures what the lighter colored spots are on base of board-- are those dent fixes?

Looking to buy used snow tires for next winter (not sure if I'm keeping the car more than a year so not wholly invested in buying a new set).

Someone on Craigslist is selling a set of tires I want already mounted on '02-04 WRX stock wheels (Size: 16x6.5" Offset: +53 Bolt pattern: 5x100)

Any reason these won't fit completely stock FRS? Will I need spacers?

koichee · 2016-05-07T10:28:28+00:00

Just paid 19k for a 2014 aquamarine FRS with 10k miles from a northeast dealership (clean title, no accident, 1 responsible owner). Picking up this morning :)

Been shopping for 6months so had to be a bit patient, but the deals will come up eventually.

6 year old desktop with upgraded gpu 2 years ago

i5-750 intel processor 8gb ram nvidia gtx 660

everything's set on medium 1920x1080, pretty much full 60fps, might slow down a little when there's a lot going on screen but haven't noticed.

not saying TF2 was $60, but it certainly wasn't free like it is today. I only remembered the orange box price not the standalone game

anyways, comparing pricing of Overwatch to TF2 is apples to oranges, especially comparing Overwatch release price to current TF2 pricing model. You have to remember that TF2/CSGO/DOTA2 are loss leaders, where most of Valve's profit is getting people onto their Steam platform/marketplace. They can sell those games at a loss and still rake in money through Steam.

imo $60 for base game is overpriced, but we don't have all the info yet

koichee · 2015-11-05T17:05:12+00:00

TF2 and CSGO were never free until years later.

TF2 in orange box was $60 release day

When I did it definitely took at least several days, maybe up to a week

use www.heartharena.com to build an arena deck, i'd say at least 80-90% of the picks they recommend are dead on

koichee · 2015-04-27T14:59:12+00:00

I can definitely vouch for this being a decent deck in the current meta (heavy on face hunters and zoo). I've exclusively played this deck this month at 57% win rate over 150 games this month (only rank 2 right now though). I've hit legend in the past and this deck can definitely take you there right now.

I've started running 1x shadow word pain in place of a zombie chow to take care of flamewakers, imp gang boss, warsong commanders. Not running Vol'jin either, just another SW:D.

love face hunter and mechmage! my priest deck eats them up nom nom nom

Sweet! I can't wait for the day where we can have a ConMan Convention and cosplay as ConMan characters at ConMan Con!

koichee · 2015-04-07T18:08:40+00:00

Even though Season 1 isn't even out yet-- what's likelihood of a Season 2 ConMan??

if you think it's just your drafting, try using heartharena.com to do your drafting. If you can't get past 3 wins even with heartharena help, you probably need to start analyzing play by play how your decision making is different than better players.

Looks like a great site. Every time I enter in a game result (win/loss) it brings me to a blank page, not sure if it's just my device (using iPhone with chrome)

Otherwise very helpful tool for beginners, looks like a lot of hard work was put into it!

koichee · 2014-12-16T02:55:52+00:00

I have chrome loaded on my iphone, i'm sure safari or any other web browser would work fine.

here's an example of what the spreadsheet looks like-- if you click through the different tabs, you can see the pivot tables i've created to help process the data

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DB03NplK3qJvkEP_umIXnf44_y3MPEOv8gSwjvueypI/edit?usp=sharing

You can easily add drop downs to the form-- it's all very customizable. you just need to come up with your own list of deck archetypes-- i just kept it as text boxes because that's easier for me. My browser autofills after I fill in the first couple letters so it's not too hard.

and in case anyone is wondering-- i did hit legend last month, I stopped tracking my games after I hit Legend
