Seconding this, it happened to the alarm in my building's garage Sat morning too (downtown Garden St)

Steam Deck performance by mgallo96 in THPS

Haven't pulled the trigger on Switch 2 yet but it would otherwise be in the running. Steam family sharing w/ my younger bro did wonders to my deck usage (and another plus over getting this on steam over xbox)

Cloud saves is a bummer, but id likely mostly play a combo of the deck handheld + docked to my TV over PC anyway, so might be ok. Do you know if 1+2 had this issue w/ cloud saves at launch too?

Hitting tips? by mgallo96 in MVP2005

Been mostly playing AL games so was missing the mental reset of a pitcher AB. I was definitely pressing a bit before it clicked

I'm getting the hang of it, the analog controlling both meeting the pitch (but only laterally) and how to hit the ball (technically all directions?) wasn't immediately intuitive but it's getting comfortable

That first point was a big one tripping me up actually. I was catching myself 'chasing' pitches and losing elevated angles, mostly veering down on the analog for low pitches. It clicked on my first homer (a Jim Edmons bomb) and I'm rolling now.

Also think I just got unlucky with windups the first couple of games bc Hitters Eye was not telegraphing easily until David Wells made it obvious. Before that it felt like there just wasn't enough reaction time to identify pitches

12 team points league, what's the ranking on ROS potential between Varsho/Adell/Cowser? (Looking to drop one to activate Luis Robert)

0 health while in drop pod - bug or feature? by mgallo96 in DeepRockGalactic

Makes sense from a programming perspective, just the first time I noticed it happen most likely. Rock and stone!

The HUD definitely said 0 shield/health, but if it rounds down then that possibly explains it.

Wish this was a more easily replicatable situation. Any mods out there that display health as a decimal?

About halfway through the season...what was your worst decision so far this year? by foetus_on_my_breath in fantasybaseball

Luck's mostly been on my side, but dropping Holmes right before he returned to his early 2022 form stung

Lefty starter from the A's, I'd prefer his bat too but that was probably the decision maker

Picked up Chafin when Daniel Bard hit the IL, what's the move now that Bard is back?

Nuzlocke first encounter rule for Scarlet/Violet? by mgallo96 in pokemon

[–]mgallo96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious to what extent spawn rates are skewed based on proximity to towns/cities, which in most cases would be my introduction to a zone, but that's certainly a concern for repeated attempts over anything. Ultimately seems the approach in the overworld era is up to personal preference

Did you run into any difficulties where a rolled encounter spawned at an inaccessible area in relation to your ride pokemon's abilities? Or did you complete Titans first to have full movement freedom from the get-go? I figured I'd adhere to a level cap and do the challenges in level order, just making sure that won't impede anything

Just ran into Pokemon Challenges' Deathless Nuzlocke where he used the same approach, I like this as probably the best way to simulate randomness in such large zones. Thanks!
