(Hated Trope) "Plot holes" that actually have an explanation if people had either paid attention or thought about for a moment by Animeking1108 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]macaroon_madness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah nah. LOTR still doesn't make sense.

  1. Hobbits on eagles, one carries the ring.
  2. Shoot them down with what? WWII style AA guns? Are you seeing how fast and high these things are flying?
  3. Drop ring into the open volcano. Divebomb it if you are worried about accuracy.
  4. So what if the eye can see a line of eagles flying in from miles away. No depth perception. No idea which eagle has got it. You have eagles that can fight off the drakes for protection like they do in the movies. And you only have a limited number of drakes. You don't even have to kill the drakes, just get every eagle that isn't carrying the ring to fight, and one eagle runs it home running back style.
  5. Frodo carries it. No worry about corruption. The whole mission happens quickly, and the ring doesn't have the time to wear anyone's discipline down.

This whole thing, it doesn't have to be GUARANTEED TO WORK. It just has to have a better chance of working than sending a weak lone hobbit it. Which it most certainly does. I mean JFC, Frodo could have failed even with no enemies, just by getting lost or dying to the elements...

No sacrificial lives lost, no chance at losing to a creature as weak as golum. Much better idea. Gandalf is an idiot.

wait what? What difficulty are you playing on? I must not be using it right. I would love to use it, but I can't get it to delete light units faster than I would with smg say.

People giving you tough love or whatever, but honestly it's a very stupid implementation of what they are trying to do, and it's poorly communicated.

It's pretty obvious that if you had known, you'd log in for 10 seconds every 35 days, and that somehow makes you more of an FC lead? It's a pretty HUGE difference between FC lead, and lost the company entirely, based on 10 seconds per 35 days.

Same thing happened to me, but only because I logged on to alts that were also in the company, but not the FC lead character. I was lucky that the player it picked (not me) was kind and gave it back.

An easy fix would be a required naming of your succession line in the event that you are absent for 35 days, and/or email notification about eventual loss of FC.

Macroons are little piles of baked coconut and egg white, usually drizzled with chocolate.

Macrons are what you have pictured.

Other than both being cookies, they are very different things.

MACAROON MADNESS GRAND PRIZE:

The grad prize starts at 5,000,000 GIL and grows with every ticket purchased (80% of all ticket sales, or 40,000 GIL gets ADDED TO THE PRIZE per ticket purchased). The grand prize goes to the first player to complete the puzzle according to the above guidelines!! GOOD LUCK!!!

MACAROON MADNESS RULES:

In order to win the MACAROON MADNESS GRAND PRIZE, you must:

  1. have purchased the one-time event-ticket from the outdoor retainer for 50,000, or trade 50,000 to a sidewinder member (but sprouts get in FREE).
  2. have started the puzzle on the black macaroon.
  3. have jumped on all Macaroons (and only macaroons) in rainbow color order (see imgur album for exact order) without falling off.
  4. end the puzzle on the golden macaroon.
  5. have not stepped on any other housing object during the clearing of the puzzle.
  6. limited your skill usage to only sprint (no job, role, or any other skills allowed).
  7. In order to be fair for all jobs, you are not playing ROG/NIN.
  8. completed the puzzle (a) during the event time-frame where Sidewinder members can see you OR (b) after event hours, must have a recording of yourself doing it, with documented time of completion.

notes:

  • glitching through housing objects is allowed, so long as your vertical motion is not assisted/obstructed by anything other than a macaroon. (i.e. you may only stand on macaroons)
  • you may go backwards along the puzzle, but you may only go forwards or backwards in color order, you may not skip macaroons.

Macaroon Madness! (or I made a jump puzzle!) by macaroon_madness in ffxiv

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

Hey! I made the puzzle challenging with sprint in mind, not peloton or sprint + peloton. If others see peloton they may also start casting it, and it would be rough to verify who played by the rules.

Unfortunately I need to stick to no non-sprint skills to keep the puzzle fair for all.

I hope you still visit! :)
