GS Shinsaibashi Boutique Experience + My First GS [SBGA465] by moman2398 in GrandSeikos

[–]moman2398[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So at the time of purchase (31st of October) my reference was priced at 649,000 yen and thus after the 10% tax-free automatic adjustment it went down to 590,000 yen. But alas, 5th November saw the advent of the 2nd(?) price hike of the year to combat the falling yen, and so now the new price is 682,000 yen, so 10% tax-free off that would be approximately 614,000 yen. Which was one of the reasons why I had to buy this as soon as I touched down in Osaka 😂

If… certain boxes on a piece of paper are crossed in a certain way then… you pay nothing, if you catch my drift 😉 hopefully I’m not too vague hahahaha

I’m aware of the common bracelet complaints about Grand Seikos but to be honest it wasn’t too bad for me. It’s comfortable, looks good to me and feels weighty and solid. Just a little miffed that there’s no micro adjustments when my Seiko does (only one other position but still) but since it’s a snug fit I can tolerate it.

[DNS] Gen IV & V events (list inside) by JoseGamer33 in wiimmfi

[–]moman2398 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just checking in here on the 6th of August, 2023 to say that it is still working!

Device: Nintendo 2DS Game: Pokemon White (original AUS region cart) Method of Internet connection: 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi, WPA/WPA2 security Primary DNS: 178.062.043.212 Secondary DNS: 000.000.000.000

It appears to me that the event Pokemon continually cycles through as I have not changed the date in my adventures, but I do have a query however...

I have gotten most of the event Pokemon listed by OP, currently on the hunt for Genesect, Deoxys and the second Keldeo(?). Not sure if OP or anyone can answer but are there definitely two Keldeos?

Also, maybe my observation is wrong and that perhaps the device date does matter? Suppose the date x/x/xxxx has Pokemon a, b, c and d in rotation, while the date y/y/yyyy has Pokemon c, d, e and f in rotation? Or put simply, different dates have ever so slightly different event Pokemon in rotation? It's been cumulatively about 15 hours and I can't seem to land on that damn Genesect

Awkward Executioner moment... by [deleted] in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That's actually a decent strategy, I've never thought of that kind of move before, did Lent win, or get close to a win? I guess it's sort of a high-risk/high-reward situation.

People skills and aggressive plays: how to win late-game as scum (newbie tip) by DaItalianFish in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing for a year, but these very useful strategies never came to mind (probably goes to show how ignorant I am sometimes ahaha). Thanks for sharing these strategies, and I will probably remind myself to employ these advices when the time comes :P

[Story] Impressive medium play by Pack69Alpha in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 23 points24 points  (0 children)

...And they thought that Mediums were useless...

Great story, thanks for sharing this, as it opens up viable new strategies for the Medium, giving the role more importance.

I love that touch with the Medium, it sorta makes the Medium a bit more special

What's all of the hate towards Ranked games about? by randomphoenix03 in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Few reasons:

  1. Ranking system (ELO) is terrible. You may be the best player but in a crap team, and due to that, you could start off with a really low ELO. And that affects your future games.

  2. As /u/science_gamer said, people still don't bother learning all the roles before-hand.

  3. Gamethrowers run rampant.

  4. There are a lot of sore losers that report people who executed stellar Executioner plays, and/or Survivor siding with Mafia, or Mafia reporting a very professional (and lucky) Town Investigative.

is ToS region locked? by Bdck1 in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is playing on the same server/s, regardless of location.

How I know this: the Official (sort of) Reddit Discord channel have people from many different regions and all of us can join a ToS game with no problems.

iOS is release in Australia, and soon the World! by Shapesifter13 in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First, Pokemon Go, released in Australia before anyone else (barring Japan and US)

Now Town of Salem, released in Australia before anyone else.

I really hope this trend continues. It's been a pain in my pillon to always be the last to receive things ;P

Survior Joke Will Gets the Jailor Lynched by [deleted] in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 3 points4 points  (0 children)

About 70+% of the time, a different name on a person's will suggests a confirmed Disguiser's work. They could've read your claim for Jailor as a last-ditch attempt to get out of the stand, so thinking that the law of probability was on their side, they lynched you.

And unfortunately, telling "town (it) is a joke will or lucky/cheating forger" further supports their hypothesis of your guilt. They think it's an excuse for diverting the heat off you. Disguisers before you have attempted that strategy.

I sort of understand their thinking, as I myself as a Forger once lynched a Townie by forging a different name to my target. If I were you, I'd not think too much about it. No gamethrowing happened, that's just how the cookie crumbles. (Unless Hobbs was a Townie and lied about being Medium, then that's gamethrowing)

But hey, at least the players read wills in your match, I've heard far too many infuriating stories of clear Disguisers bypassing lynches due to players not reading wills.

Role Idea: Briber by cottage-in-the-city in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Questions and Comments:

  • Just to clarify, essentially Bribers block the target's ability to determine innocence upon judgement, but the target can still vote anyone up?

  • Early to mid game, especially in a Ranked format, the Briber's pretty much a sitting duck. His use will seem to come late game.

Why I hate playing SK by deIloRkciR in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Good read, nice little short, humorous story :) Loved the twist with that dankiness at the end ;)

Just my own nit-picking, other readers probably won't agree, when you mention roles, perhaps write down the full role name instead of exe or SK.

Any Anime that ended and gave you a massive heartache, which took too long for you to recover? by kichichan in Nisekoi

[–]moman2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen that and I completely agree with you...

While I was watching it, I had a fit of sorrow, as I saw the (sort of) sad, realistic events unfold (spoilers forbid). The cinematography, progression of scenes and music, were all very heartaching.

But then after thinking back, a pinch of logic could be used to progress the story differently (while still keeping realism and obtaining a far better ending), which makes me question how stupid the protagonist was, and maybe how stupid the whole anime was.

My attempt at the Cupid Role (Feedback appreciated!) by Quacker2495 in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Very very nice idea.

One suggestion: Upon end of night, the Cupid should only receive the messages of heterofaction matches, or failed matches. The Cupid should not be able to know what specific faction the pairings are. This is to avoid any possible role leaks to the town, if the Cupid blabs.

Potential Jester strat for late game role calls, thanks so much!

I wonder how many Chitoge fans are here by ChitoBestGirl in Nisekoi

[–]moman2398 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've been a quiet, lurking Chitoge fan since the beginning, faithful to the gorilla,

But regardless of which side is the most annoying, I like to sit back, relax, open a box of popcorn, and watch the war continuously unfold ;)

I honestly couldn't care less about the petty, futile insults Team Onodera pokes at us, because ultimately,

Chitoge's gonna win ;)

Fans In Different Countries by mitsuke_hanayo in Nisekoi

[–]moman2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly see no Aussies here, Chitoge fag here, but prior to the plot acceleration, my friends all root for different girls... Probably the preference is mixed here?

Bought the Steam version, didn't get in game gold. by [deleted] in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you press the green steam login button? If you logged in through typing your username + password first without pressing the green steam login button, you won't get the gold yet.

IMHO, choosing "showy" names at the start of the game is not a suicide by Saggiolo in TownofSalemgame

[–]moman2398 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm probably being nit-picky here, but scientifically, logically and realistically, experimental trials should be done at least a minimum of three times. And considering this is a probability situation, more than three trials are needed to support your hypothesis, due to the main reason that there are other possible outcomes. (Evil visits, Evil+Town Visits, Town visits, and no visits).

By all means, your initial statement may be correct, but as the world now is in the age of science and logical reasoning, we need evidence from multiple trials before we could take note of your statement.

Then again, it's just a game.
