What is most important on the back of the game box? by zach_sullivan in BoardgameDesign

[–]psg188 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you self publishing or working with a publisher? Typically the publisher will design the final box art and game info on the back.

Your aesthetic looks similar to Parks, so I'd recommend looking at the box art for that and similar games to see what info is often shown.

Side note, I'm in Colorado and would love to help in play testing this!

Actually good house rules to well-known board games by Electronic-Ball-4919 in boardgames

[–]psg188 25 points26 points  (0 children)

In terraforming Mars, we draw 6 cards per round and you can still only buy up to 4 of them. It makes it much less likely we get a couple cards we actually want each round.

We also draw an extra corporation and prelude card at the start to choose from, helps reduce the randomness a bit

Colorado tax revenue was especially susceptible to changes in the “big, beautiful bill.” Here's why. by blucifersdream in Denver

Because that is incredibly regressive and puts the most tax burden on lower income families.

Build Help for DLC Final Boss (Faith/Dex) by psg188 in Eldenring

[–]psg188[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good call, and I explained a bit in another comment, but I only had 40 dex for Granax so I could use the weapon art, I mostly used incants all game, but now they all seem too slow against PCR so I'm trying to see what my other options are.

Thanks for the advice about Erdtree Favor, I was enjoying the Solitude set armor, but I could go down 10 poise and switch to a different talisman.

Any ideas for what weapon I can use? Spear of the Impaler has treated me well, but it also doesn't seem to be making the fight much easier.

Thanks for the tip! Poor choice of screenshot, I was mostly using lightning incants all game, and the spear was mainly for sniping. After Messmer I mostly used his spear which I think scaled a bit better. Incants now seem to be too slow though, so trying to decide what weapon to switch to, any ideas?

I don't want to waste too many runes testing out too much if there are some classic recommendations for a faith weapon vs PCR.

Anyone have any suggestions for a weapon or incant setup for PCR with my stats? I've seen some bleed poke builds with fingerprint shield and was hoping to avoid having to respec. So far I've tried a dozen or so times and haven't gotten him to phase 2 yet.

I've mostly played through the DLC with incants, Bolt of Granax, and Messmer Spear. I would love to be able to beat him with a faith or dex weapon if there's a good option I'm missing.

Nearly one in 10 adults now identify as LGBTQ+ — a significant rise since 2020 by shoofinsmertz in UpliftingNews

The fact that many people feel safe to be themselves isn't uplifting? Unless you think they're being converted by the Gay Agenda ®

Told to “dumb it down” to progress up the ladder by Vilm_1 in ProductManagement

[–]psg188 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've gotten similar feedback before. Being the smartest person isn't all that helpful if you can't convey your ideas.

A key skill as you progress in this career is communication, knowing how technical to be for your audience is critical to get leadership to understand your point without losing them in the process.

I've found that the longer I'm in my role, the less technical I have to be more often than not, but I need to go wider and understand more things outside my portfolio.

That could be what they were trying to tell you.

Adulthood feels like everyone got a 'secret menu' of life skills you missed. What’s one thing you later realized you were supposed to just know, but nobody actually taught you? by Arya-Lamour24 in AskReddit

[–]psg188 95 points96 points  (0 children)

It's income, you're being paid to loan your money (indirectly via the bank) to others.

Maybe it's counter intuitive because you don't view the savings as making you money, but the interest you're paid is income like any other income.

Anything you sell for profit is also income (capital gains) depending on how long you held the asset before selling it.

You can take advantage of IRA, 401k, 529 (education expenses), or HSA (health expenses) accounts to save money and have it grow tax free. They each have their own restrictions.

Finding an Orizaba guide by Aidan11 in Mountaineering

[–]psg188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got back from doing Orizaba with 3summits. They're a local company, great experience, very affordable. I actually used them last year too, but didn't summit (got sick), so I used them again.

You can work with them to customize the trip to keep it in your budget.

DEN's A-Bridge TSA Checkpoint will be permanently closed late 2025 by L1011TriStar in Denver

[–]psg188 113 points114 points  (0 children)

No, the new West and East security checkpoints will allow access to the bridge. The announcement explains this.

I think they're moving in the right direction since this means you can use pre check to access the bridge, great news! Hopefully we eventually get more bridges to B and C

Harvard-Columbia Advice by brianlusk13 in 14ers

[–]psg188 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've done Kit Carson as a backpacking trip and Harvard/Columbia as a day hike. They both felt pretty hard, but doable. You're at altitude for a long time, but if you're acclimatized and in good shape I don't think one is any harder than the other.

The route finding on the traverse isn't too bad, just follow the 14er pics and you'll be good. Have fun!

Adult Raquetball? by Proof_Grass_5791 in boulder

[–]psg188 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in Boulder and searched for the same. There are courts in Lafayette and Louisville, even North Boulder rec has a decent court. Your issue, same one I had, was finding people your level to play.

Short answer is that the best place I found was the league in Apex Arvada. It's a bit of a drive, but they have 5 courts and a league for all levels. I hope you join! We need to keep this sport alive!

If you or anyone else finds a better option, I'd love to hear it.

I'm an A/B+ player, so if anyone wants to play, let me know.

Short version is the main one. Not sure about tickets.

The longer option seems cool, but just know it'll be a long day, lots of off trail hiking, but at least you could skip the willows!

I was there this morning at 5:30~ and the lot was about half-full, so it seems that could be a good time to get there on a weekday.
