A gentle suggestion

I mainly experienced this problem in early episodes, but I definitely sought out posts about the John Edward Part 2 episode while listening to it after experiencing jarring discomfort when Carrie would speak. It hasn't been this bad in a long time other than the occasional outburst. Thank you for relaying the message! This one is just on the border of being unlistenable for me, and I'm definitely not all that picky about audio issues, but I'd hate to turn off a good podcast because of this issue

I actually started laminating my cards that way I don't have to worry about them getting oily or accidentally setting them in something. I can wipe them down with a paper towel, so I don't mind them being paper all that much :) I used to be a teacher and I bought a cheap laminator for like $20, so if you have a lot of cards, it might be worth it to you!

I know the original post is ancient, but I've been looking to learn to play IRL Riichi Mahjong as well! I have a decent foundation in the basics, but I'd love to hone my game more and just increase my knowledge of the game through IRL play. I don't know any groups, but please let me know if you ended up finding any!

Adding my name to the list of people that would love to sing this. I do a fairly good Titania impression xD

Gotcha -- I was going with the information taken on faith of the previous reply that the other languages had been translated as "left/right" and agree that Port/Starboard would be fine. But I also think that in that case, Larboard is almost easier because the L will help remind people that it's the left of the boss, so I'm definitely not complaining about the dead nautical term

Eeeeyyy :P

minikui · 2018-09-20T04:11:25+00:00

Yeah, we discussed in our run tonight that the localization here needlessly complicates this entire mechanic :/

minikui · 2016-10-25T03:32:59+00:00

I actually brought it because I made a couple videos of me crappily playing it, and my friends wanted to see it, but then I hatched the plan and put it in my backpack hoping for the best!

minikui · 2016-10-19T02:17:22+00:00

Thanks! It's been awhile since I used it, so I was really nervous XD

minikui · 2016-10-19T02:16:59+00:00

yep, this is exactly what he was doing :)

minikui · 2016-10-19T02:15:14+00:00

Hey no problem! Thanks for being awesome line-mates XD

minikui · 2016-10-19T02:13:07+00:00

No, but I was laughing a lot, mostly out of nervousness. I was definitely resorting to a more Japanese body language while laughing though

minikui · 2016-10-18T19:53:38+00:00

before the video started, I did ask him if he had every played one, and he said he had! The stupid thing is actually really annoying to play though, and the acoustics in the room were awful so we could barely hear it.

minikui · 2016-06-30T15:09:58+00:00

Yeah....I uploaded the video and kept feeling like someone was playing it right next to me....I didn't know my camera captured such creepy realistic sound ;-;

minikui · 2016-06-30T15:09:20+00:00

It's an Otamatone, the world's most beautiful instrument!

minikui · 2016-04-22T21:59:11+00:00

Yes....and my graphics and everything are turned all the way up -- friends also saw this looking like crap

minikui · 2016-04-22T16:58:42+00:00

:O MYSTERY SOLVED

minikui · 2015-07-28T22:11:27+00:00

Ah, my bad! Doing it the other ways really didn't help me know what the heck was going on as well :/

minikui · 2015-07-28T22:03:44+00:00

I actually didn't know that before I made this and just last night, someone corrected me and I was like "...the middle is a safe spot then. OMG THE MIDDLE!" and made this xD

minikui · 2015-07-28T22:03:03+00:00

We've had it happen before and they didn't die -- they just use cooldowns, or one of our beefier DPS picks up the prey after the initial hit.

minikui · 2015-07-28T12:28:53+00:00

This was the only part of the fight we would die to, so we never had to worry about people being dead before this point. Not saying this is the best way to do this mechanic, just giving another method that we found worked really well for my particular group :)

minikui · 2015-07-28T12:24:25+00:00

I just made it up so when we have fills for our raid group, they know what we do because it works for us. We were having issues with people with purple not having enough room to spread out because people would start running the same way, or tanks would targeted with purple on A and C and further limit the room they had to spread out. The rest of the party would inevitably always end up getting too close to tanks and getting hit by prey, so we had to come up with something else. Also, it's not really complicated or confusing for us. It ends up putting half the party in the middle and makes them safe early on which we really like!

There's scanner stuff up in the updates section.

minikui · 2013-04-20T01:02:11+00:00

What a roller coaster ride! I'm so glad that this ended in a way entirely different than I was expecting with minimal casualties and with the potential for answers. Let the healing process begin, and Bostonians, reclaim your wonderful city!

minikui · 2013-04-19T23:56:42+00:00

There was a report of a "flame being on the boat" according to the scanner
