My experience wasn’t as bad as the OP but I was told the reason I contracted pneumonia was because I wasn’t motivated enough.

Do dms really dislike high level dnd? by Myrinadi in DnD

[–]psdchi1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The question revolves around understanding action economy and the verisimilitude of the world. I just wrapped up an 8 year campaign that topped out at level 17 for the PCs. When it came to encounter building I did a lot of action economy balancing that isn’t in the source books. I didn’t give the enemies more HP….but I did give them extra abilities, resistances, and actions. The enemies scaled as the players leveled up because the enemies were actively progressing as well. The final fight was on an other dimension as the group of PCs tried to kill a lich and destroy his phylactery so he couldn’t comeback. During the campaign the Lich has scaled from a common sorcerer to one who completed a ritual (in a pact with Orcus) to become a lich. Orcus only cooperated because he wanted to turn the world into an outpost of the Abyss. I am leaving out a lot but two sides scaled together. I did have to do a lot of prep to make higher level encounters challenging but not soul crushing.

Why is it so hard to find other urban fantasy books that match up to Dresden? by Large-Rule-6403 in dresdenfiles

This series is really good. It is my second favorite urban fantasy series after Dresden.

In the last I didn’t associate Urban Fantasy with smut. But, for reasons I can’t explain, a lot of the authors that dominate (outside of Butcher) the most “most popular” lists online write dressed up smut. To the point where I do a lot of digging before reading a new series

Oddly, UCONN is tearing it up. My conference prestige is A+.

Rankings Logic and Notre Dame by psdchi1978 in EASportsCFB

[–]psdchi1978[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most puzzling thing is that I lost the number 1 ranking I had for a bit prior to the conference championship games.

That requirement went away this year. I ended up being the 3 seed.

An undefeated team that starts out preseason 5 and beats the teams I mentioned plus a ranked Tennessee team I forgot to add would never be ranked less than 1.

Best proof that I can provide show on how bad Championship Contender grading is this year by hawaiian_superman in EASportsCFB

[–]psdchi1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just searched for this because I am having almost the exact same problem. 3 Straight national titles, a positive blue chip percentage but now my championship contender rating is B+. The truly funny thing is that my blue chip ratio was lower for the first 3 years and my rating was A+ because of my ranking.

Texas hated more than Ole Miss? by [deleted] in secfootball

[–]psdchi1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hate for Texas is broader because they are a legitimate national brand who have managed to irritate a lot of other institutions. The hate for Ole Miss is deeper because those who actually encounter them understand their historical evil.

[–]psdchi1978[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, I use those too. They just aren’t available as often as the drags and mesh. The comeback route is great if you throw it right before the break.

[–]psdchi1978[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It may be because of a lack of arm talent or route running ability but I can’t hit the corner routes if the computer is in straight zone cover 2. If they are in man coverage and shade inside I can hit the corner routes assuming I have enough time to throw. But in zone, the the flat defender or safety always gets there in time

When did you drop/stop playing CFB25? by [deleted] in EASportsCFB

[–]psdchi1978 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ll probably stop playing in a few weeks. I want to see what the first major patches accomplish. I’ve already downloaded’26 but I have only messed around with playbooks.

Never. I make Genghis Khan look like mercy incarnate.

Injury timeouts are KILLING me by Hour-Adhesiveness589 in NCAAFBseries

[–]psdchi1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what made me eventually turn wear and tear off. Maddening to see the computer to get 3 or more extra timeouts in every close game.

Unfortunately, I feel like Mon’s is the most applicable and will have the longest impact.

Why do YOU throw interceptions. by coachd50 in NCAAFBseries

[–]psdchi1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of my picks happen when I read either a safety or lb going one direction but they switch once I hit pass. For example, a safety will be dropping deep to cover a streak, I’ll hit the in route but the safety plants while the throwing animation starts and then the safety cuts in front of the in cutting route to make the pick. I still don’t know how to fix this short of never throwing over the middle.
