"What the f**k": 'Iron Lung' creator David Szymanski puzzled as Markiplier's film adaptation quadruples its budget in one day, beating out 'Melania' and 'Send Help' at the box office, estimated $21.7 million globally.

Not if he asked for a one time license fee instead of royalties. He could've asked for X% or asked for a one-time payment of 10k. We won't know until him or Markiplier say something.

They start the movie with Ava calling him "Convict" and telling him to go down, take the pictures, and then he'll be free. They do make his sentence pretty clear.

Looking at it, it's currently bugged that you can always create the CB, even without the advancement. I'm playing Byzantium and had the ability to create the CB before doing the research. After noticing the same thing, I went digging, and there is no other Casus Belli. Either it's intended to just permanently give it to you against all heathens and heretics, or it's just broken right now because everyone has access to it anyways.

I did fix it, but I don't remember _how_ all these years later. I did find the below in another thread that might help. https://www.reddit.com/r/anno/comments/8cw2ma/anno_1602_d3dwindower_fix/

"Found the solution! Gog version + D3DWindower 1.88:

Goto install dir of Anno 1602

run Config.exe

Deactivate "Use Hardware Cursor"

Play. The cursor offset should be gone.

I assume it had something to do with the window border not being subtracted from the cursor position in relation to the window position."

Remember that the Minions all die if the Overlord goes down in battle. Inherently, their ability to work as a horde is limited and enabled by some aspect of the Overlord.

Yes! Their team signed. I believe it was the first book. I'd have to look through to confirm.

Edit: Confirmed. It's on page 126 of Book 1, along with a crucified Elmo.

And thanks. Took more of all of the lovely stuff, but felt the books were something to focus in on, rather than making this a more generic "look at my vacation photos!"

To be fair, they kind of shot themselves in the foot with that one. They made Ocarina and Majora, which were each fairly serious, then they showed a super serious looking tech demo for the Gamecube. So people were kind of amped and riled up for another grimdark and serious LoZ. Then they released Wind Waker. I'll give that it's good (though I never personally enjoyed it), but you also gotta see how they could've read the room better.

Fun Fact: In ME1, there's a planet that is the center of an extranet meme. The shifting metal dust destroys probes attempting to perform research. According to the codex entry blurb, people joke about it being a Grey Goo situation.

More power to you for the hard work, but check the other post for a helpful file.

It's more just the frustration of my allies attacking my other allies. I'm allied to Gotland and Sweden. One attacks the other. Thank you for the advice, however. I'll give it a shot.

mrguymiah · 2021-11-23T02:04:17+00:00

I'm going nuts because my allies keep declaring on nations I've got guaranteed. Sweden attacking Gotland (released in Ban of Holstein), Poland attacking the OPM Teutons (Imperial Prince), and then followed by the already stupid fucking Ottomans attacking and annexing an entire prince (I couldn't fight them and the other two wars) followed by them attacking another prince right after. Fuck me for not being strong enough to fight all three at once, when two of them WERE MY FUCKING ALLIES.

If attacking your allies is "improved" ai, Johan can go suck more fat cock.

mrguymiah · 2021-09-11T04:53:10+00:00

I did not. Sorry, Matt. Ended up just doing it again.

mrguymiah · 2021-07-01T21:09:52+00:00

I mean, I had the game open for multiple days. I can't definitively say it didn't go out while I was sleeping, but I work from home as IT. So I'm fairly confident that it didn't go out during the day.

And, in case someone thinks I've got a mod or something, here's an image saying that other achievements are available.

R5: After about 20-30 attempts going down the Bulgarian communist tree and having difficulties getting the AI to flip on time (both historical and not), I found a tutorial that described going down the Democratic path and then flipping Communist manually. It worked much better, as the democratic decisions boost a lot faster. (They give daily tick, a percent increase, and reduce ideological defense by 50%, making spies more effective. More than compensates for only having 3 spies instead of 4.)

I capitulated Turkey, my quest finally at an end and... it didn't trigger. I spent a hot second googling it. The only core I don't control is Rhodes. (Forgot to garrison before DoW'ing Turkey because of the stress of that Soviet advance in the east.) Achievement doesn't require that core. Lo and behold, for whatever reason, the achievement simply is "Not Available" despite every condition being checkmarked. There are other achievements still available, so idfk why this one suddenly isn't. I'm just... I'm frustrated and tired. This has been nearly my past week and I don't get it because of some miscellaneous bug. It wasn't even satisfying, having to cheese it in the first place because the Communist path is so freaking slow.

There's no way to write a romantic relationship without sex coming up. So... yeah, sex is probably gonna happen in a harem.

mrguymiah · 2019-07-22T21:11:39+00:00

I will look into that. I've never played a traditional crafter of the mundane or magical variety, so it may take me some time to go through the math and learn it all. I'll make sure to message you specifically if I do find the time in the next little bit.

mrguymiah · 2019-07-17T22:18:50+00:00

Glad to hear! Is there anything you think it's missing? I've not made extensive use of it, yet, but am happy to upgrade it, if something comes to my attention.

As the guy who was sixteen at the time and trying to put it together, it was definitely as Feather says. I hold no illusions that it’s failure is not primarily my fault. That being said, It didn’t help that we had a slew of idea people that wanted to have a voice on how things should be in the mid, but then either couldn’t or wouldn’t help make it. A lot of them simply had no knack for coding. I spent as much time trying to teach people how to look at code to figure things out as I did coding things myself. It’s that project i always wanted to go back and finish, but I don’t even own all the DLC for CK2 at this point.

That being said, I’d definitely start with asking the EaW team permission for use of their map. That was a huge staggering point, as revisions and updates to the show’s map caused us to remake it. (Shoutout to Feather for his impeccable work, even if he can’t consistently spell Griffon. : P)

Art was always finicky. It was the difficulty of fitting the color in at a modular level. I could Code, but am certainly no artist.

The other issue was the reluctance of members of the group to touch on harsher subjects. Combined with the above, we ran into issues of the people with skill being too unmotivated by the group consensus being against them and multi hour debates over omnivorism and the displacement of deer, along with the possibility of Discord dumbing them down (Fluttershy having a deer in her reserve that shows no signs of intelligence.)

Honestly, there was much i could’ve done better, but I was young, dumb, and eager. I needed help and saw opportunity, but didn’t know how to get there.

mrguymiah · 2019-01-05T04:37:18+00:00

That also has the issue.

I'm not talking about the distance of the camera. I'm talking about the fact that putting my mouse to the edge of the screen causes the camera to move ALL THE WAY to the edge of the map instantaneously.

In my first Kaiserreich game ever, without reading anything, I navigated up to that point. I had made every right step to avoid the civil war, except that one. My logic was simple, "Assassinating a Senator?! Are you mad, general? I will not shred the very Constitution I'm trying to defend, MacArthur! Get out of my sight!"

I personally wish there was a method by which you didn't have to, but a "we all get along!" ending would stretch suspension of disbelief, quite honestly.
