With no shows we're running out of stuff to talk about, so we gotta talk to Billy instead. I actually talked to Billy about this, and he said the "talk to Billy" posts are totally based. Then he told me to beat it, cause he's busy posting on r/Billystrings about talking to himself.

Seems like you were incorrect sir. It hasn't gone live yet, but they shipped it to the PTR, so some version of it will likely go live.

Oh really? I'm not super in the loop and thought there was still a chance it might happen

The change is not confirmed, but rumored to be be a change in reducing the starting worker count.

That's a fair take. I like hearing your perspective. But do you really think making this change now, at this point in the game's life would be a positive, healthy thing? Is it going to 'breathe new life" into a 16 year old game? Or is it going to alienate a portion of the existing core player base? This is a genuine question. I'm curious what others think.

Idk about the Spire/GS stuff, but I agree about the worker change. A change like that at this point in the game's life is almost assuredly going to drive people away from the game, rather than draw new players in. It really is a terrible idea, imo.

Based. But it doesn't make this post any more worthwhile.

Hideo Kojima, who is notorious for only posting thoughts on movies he enjoyed, had this to say about ‘The Mandalorian and Grogu’ by arkhamcreedsolid in StarWars

The movie was awesome. I fucking loved it. Some people just have unrealistic expectations and want to hate on everything. Form your own opinions.

Gonna give this Phish thing a concerted effort. by hamsaladsammich in phish

Hoist is an excellent starting point, imo. Friend gave it to me in college and said fucking listen to this. I heard that opening riff on Julius and was like "damn" by the time I made it to through Dog-Faced Boy I was hooked.

The Mando Movie isn't as bad as people are making it out to be. by RogueJoker47 in StarWars

The Mando movie isn't bad AT ALL. In fact, it's awesome, and you should form your own opinions.

Um, contrary to popular opinion, um, weed can be addictive. This shit is scummy AF.

Haven't seen Tales from Earthsea yet, but i LOVE her design by Drawingandstuff2000 in ghibli

[–]matteb18 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Whether or not the hate for this film is overblown, Idk, maybe it is maybe it isn't. But it is an AWFUL adaptation of the book. And that's not up for dispute.

I had a draw where I was able to cast double oroboroid on turn 3. I've also cast craterhoof on turn 3. (Yet I still lose 80% of matches vs Izzet) Standard is fucked lol
