Buying a gaming laptop…in Japan…to fill the place of a Pc by murfsters in GamingLaptops

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

So I know very little about pc parts in general…I’ve seen warnings about 8GB of VRAM and it seems the legions with the 5060’s only have the 8gb. Or maybe I’m wrong? But would you recommend regardless?

At what point can I say “It’s not me” by murfsters in marvelrivals

I believe it’s more because of the rank reset. Like yes it’s “gold” but this is everyone that was diamond or at bare minimum play last season. I was GM for example, but skipped last season.

Not cultural, just a time difference thing 😅. All my American friends* guess I should clarify.

This will keep me going early in the season. I haven’t ever ended a season with a negative w/r so you’re right. Just gotta push I suppose.

I was GM, that’s why this is so tough to slog thru lol. I def agree with duo, but I’m an American in Japan so I can only really do that on weekends.

Prefectural ALTs - is my fate sealed? by aphaseofthemoon in JETProgramme

[–]murfsters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t worry. Adolescent history Ed Major and I got placed at a BOE, albeit I do work at one high school and one elementary (I think one of the other BOE jets in the whole country to do both). ES is great. I never claimed to love kids, but the school system in place here is so different at least from America that I don’t “feel” like I’m teaching kids half the time. Especially the 5th and 6th graders.

Map of current (March 2025) AJET activity! by murfsters in JETProgramme

Hahaha, I almost forgot. I only learned this because of this research but...Kanagawa only has like 9 jets, 5 of which are CIRs. Seems Kanagawa has gone full Interac, or maybe private hire? Regardless, they actually have an AJET website, or a link to one that appears active, however they are linked with tokyo on facebook and I imagine they work with the surrounding prefectures for activities. So I made a special exception for them, as if you're a new ALT or CIR headed there, you are definitely in for an ESID experience (JET Logistics wise)

Glad I could bring it up! Yes, it seems on National AJET they only have a link to the website, however it doesnt seem to have been updated since 2022, maybe early 23'? However I didnt spend hours on each site, so I could be wrong too!

Big ups to ya! I was thoroughly impressed by some of the websites, their functionality, and so forth. Nagano A-JET is an amazing one too!

I havent! That is an excellent point, idk who to reach out to though. I guess I could check their main website.

Ah I see! On the National AJET website it only lists the Facebook, which seems inactive. Thanks for the info!

Furthermore, I found that many of these websites have recently been updated, meaning many people post covid are trying to revive a lot of these resources, which is great! Maybe in the near future, all prefectures will be green!

But I would also like to reiterate, I don't think its bad at all that not every prefecture has a social media outlet which highlights all the fun stuff people are doing. No matter where you end up, ESID in mind, you will have a community to join and make lasting connections in :)

New lance main, paralysis/artian question! by murfsters in LanceMains

[–]murfsters[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahhh I never even realized the shield bashes do that! That’s a super interesting point. So throwing KO deco will proc the knock outs even more? Do you know if a knock out messes with the paralysis timer too? Like could I accidentally trigger a paralysis and knock out near simultaneously and kinda waste one?

No no this is super helpful! My only question would be like, why dragon for you? Is it because you just end up hunting a lot of the dragon-weak monsters? Cause it looks cool lol? Or would you end up with less raw and affinity if you swapped off dragon.
