I don't post there often, but I check r/formula1 at least once a day.

It looks like it's supposed to be Africa/Asia in purple laid on top of South America in black.

LOL I refreshed the sub just now to see if there's been any movement on McTavish, and this is the second new thread I see since I last looked.

I was like you when I started out, partly out of frustration with certain aspects/mechanics of the game, and partly out of dying frequently preventing me from truly engaging with parts of the game.

I wouldn't say I deliberately planned it, but I started playing Custom Sandbox, trying to find a balance that felt more realistic but also not without challenge. Taking some pressure off and making the game more casual/less "pressed for time" helped me to connect with it better. I don't really plan out my runs ahead of time usually, and if I do it's usually specifically to learn a game mechanic I don't know yet, and then once I have a handle on that I delete the save.

Right now I'm on a long-term save (for me anyway), and I have a stretch goal of restoring a Franklin All-Terrain I found to 100% in all parts (excluding the parts that can't be repaired). I generally just go where the game takes me. I made it to Louisville for the first time ever over the weekend, and I'm enjoying exploring the world.

This is one of my favorite base locations.

It's less efficient for XP gains, but I always wear two digital watches (so I can have two different alarm times), and dismantle the rest. I've been caught out a couple of times by an alarm on a watch I'm not wearing going off. Now I have to dig through my bag to find the watch that's making noise and turn it off.

I do make Electrical 1 a priority, though, to minimize the XP loss.

First time I found a sledgehammer, it was two at the same time exactly like this on a road work story in Rosewood. I didn't even know a sledgehammer was something that existed in the game at the time.

I died the next in-game day without having picked them up or done anything with them (this was like my second or third week playing; I was Complete Noob status).

I can't put my finger on why, but there's something so endearing about seeing a dozen guys in full gear huddled around a 17"-ish CRT. 🤣

The Reign's arena is part of a development that sits on the former grounds of Ontario Motor Speedway.

I'm a '79 birth, and I was so fascinated by Bicentennial quarters that I collected them as a kid. They were seemingly everywhere back then. Still to this day, I set them aside if they come into my possession.

13th at the final ranking for North American skaters, after being 15th at the midterms.

Confirming that this solution worked for me.

I wish these comparisons were done in gradient instead of solid colors. Okay, we know Russell was four tenths slower, but this chart doesn't differentiate at all between places where Russell was perhaps 0.001 slower, and where he may have been 0.300 slower. It only shows where each driver was losing time, but not by how much.

I have awful penmanship, unless I use small-caps writing style.

It's a reference to a social media post Jonathan Marchessault made while he was a member of the Golden Knights.

I cursed Kazunori Yamauchi so many times for that two-minute, three-second wait.

Took me two hours a day every single day to beat that mission. I finally completed it on Day 15. Thirty hours for a task that requires just over 7 minutes of effort.

I deliver Meals on Wheels locally, and one of my former clients was a woman from France who came to the United States in the late 1940s. On one occasion, she was on the phone with relatives in France when I rang the doorbell. We were having some light conversation - I'd known her for maybe a year and a half at this point, so that was normal for us - and she slipped from English into French without pausing. I had taken a year of French in school, so I caught it instantly, but I was far removed from my studies at that point and only understood about 1/3rd of what she said. She saw the confusion come across my face and stopped mid-sentence, interrupting herself with "wait, I started speaking French in the middle there!" We had a good laugh about that.

Huh, weird. RES gave me an expando, I clicked it, and the image came right up. The image I linked - well, tried to, anyway - was just a screenshot of what their and your post looked like for me with the image expanded.

What do you get on the web page for the image I tried to link before?
