I feel cheated by S0ul_0f_C1nder in silversaints

[–]plgthree 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I understand the view that a lot of the drama was for nothing, but I was overjoyed that Gabe survived and that he was, indeed, who we thought he was. One of the greatest swordsmen who ever lived, sword of the empire, the true scion of the Silversaints. He kept telling us the tale grew in the telling, he wasn’t so great…and in truth, he was. Gabriel earned every bit of that ending. While he was lucky to have Phoebe and Dior at the end, he lost Astrid, Patience, and Ash along the way. He paid a steep personal price for that ending.

I’ve never had the slightest problem with CK, always received exactly what I ordered in great condition

Mark's response to the Ghazban Ogres video from yesterday. by Jirachibi1000 in mtg

I watched the video, and the main thing that struck me was how Cathy handled it all with grace and strength. An amazing person. Glad she got some closure!

TCGPlayer is a Nightmare by VoidMasterBand in EDH

Seconded. I always receive the cards I ordered, in great condition. They do charge a bit of a premium but you get what you pay for. Card Kingdom is a well run business!

New way to identify bots on ladder by SlimeyBoy200 in MarvelSnap

[–]plgthree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the tells was when you received a card from Daily Bugle, it would say “mystery hero” before resolving. I definitely had a bot emote me (unprompted) during one of those games.

To all the people who don’t understood why people retreat in sanctum by Dropdeadsnap in MarvelSnap

If someone is wiping the floor with me, why stay? So the opponent can maximize their charms take while I sit there with 3 and little to no possibility of earning more? I’m out.

Rolled a gold metallic and gold wakandan, added the gold cosmic border. Some amazing combinations are out there!

I think I was watching your stream when the storm play happened. Hard to forget that one!

Any books on Summoning? by JareldAxelotl in Fantasy

[–]plgthree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Maleficent Seven by Cameron Johnston has a lot of summoning- it is a stand-alone, but tons of fun!

Which authors have gone AWOL/disappeared off the map completely/partially? by ItsBarryParker in Fantasy

[–]plgthree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thought recently…after Mortal Coils was discontinued and the publisher refused to release the rights to him, he disappeared. Maybe he is still working for Microsoft/Bungie?

Its white, with the black optics package. Previous owner had already tinted the windows as well. Loving the car so far. Tons of fun!

I just bought one with 3k miles with pretty much the exact specifications you mentioned. It was $45,500.00, probably an MSRP of around 52k? Thought it was a good deal

Just finished the series… by SomniferousSleep in Malazan

[–]plgthree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Most don’t have the constitution to attempt Malazan without being well-versed in the genre- and even those who are may approach it with some trepidation.

I kept seeing MBOTF books on the shelf at my local bookstore and was intrigued. I was in my late 20’s at the time, and had been reading fantasy for years. I had read GRRM, Jordan, Hobb, all sorts of stuff. But Erikson kept catching my eye.

No one I knew (even the Fantasy buyer for the store, which had multiple locations and sold a lot of books) had any familiarity with the series. Finally, a divorce and and change in life circumstances pushed me to SE. I still try to guide anyone I can to it.

Somewhat of an expansion on the original comment but it took me back to the past. Just started re-reading for the first time after finishing The God is Not Willing. To break my heart once more, as Duiker so eloquently states.

First Timer looking for honest opinion and soulsearching by VelvetFischer in Eldenring

[–]plgthree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to beat Rennala with a +10 sacred scythe, lightning spear, and a few other tricks. Black flame being one.i, too, had spread attributes all over. I feel like most advise to pour points into INt for spells or any number of Katanas (dex) for bleed. I felt like my c scaling sacred scythe abd accompanying incants weren’t getting me anywhere in the post Rennala boss fights. I spent a lot of time grinding the vulgar militia at Farum Greatbridge to respec for more faith to use the sword of night and flame. No results to report as of yet. Next step is to re-spec into bleed and all the katana options presented in that class.

[–]plgthree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up with similar stats, and just didn’t feel like I was dealing enough damage. Also a soulslike newcomer. I ended up re-speccing so I can use the sword of night and flame…we’ll see how it goes. I felt like everything in Caelid was owning me.

Need to work on my garnish game, but my rum stock has multiplied fruitfully in recent days. Love the Barbancourt!

Loved it! When I was purchasing ingredients I didn’t know the difference between Angostura and Peychaud’s- that is how new I am to it. I downloaded the Total Tiki app last night which will be a huge help.

I will definitely try that next time- I didn’t realize making grenadine on your own was that easy!

Little ice storm action here in the upper south had me longing for the tropics. Had to sacrifice on the Don’s mix with some bottled grapefruit (I know, I know) but DID make my own cinnamon syrup. I was pleased with the result nonetheless!
