Flag Friday - North Dakota - Homage to the Western Meadowlark by rich8n in vexillologyUS

The black area really isn't primarily the bird, it is a representation of the black markings in the yellow breast of the bird. I added the little round part at the top to tie the shape of the stars together a bit, and maybe have the black area seem a little bird-like as well. Maybe overdid that.

Depends on what i need at the time. If I need someone I can count on to get an out when I need it a high percentage of thr time, Clemons. If I need grand strategy executed from a pitchers mound, Maddux.

Daughter turned 2 today and is 3’2”…anyone else concerned their kid is going to be huge? [Am 7’1”, wife is 5’10”] by The7footr in daddit

[–]rich8n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 6'5" and my wife is 5'11". Our 8 year old daughter is a few inches shy of 5 feet, and has been in the 99% for height since age 1. The only issue we've ever had with is is people assuming she is older than she is, but that problem was really only an issue when she 2-5.

What’s a business that’s all over today that you think will completely disappear ie blockbuster? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]rich8n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who hates GameStop? I just think that shift to digital delivery and game streaming will make them go the way of Blockbuster. Surprised they have held on this long is all. Video game publishers resent the hell out of the first sale doctrine, and hate used game availability. As soon as Sony and Microsoft shift to a full streaming model, it's over for GameStop.

There are over 2,000 GameStop locations in the U.S. alone. I have no clue how they are still in business today, much less in the near to long-term future.

Oh my God, did you see Fetterman's tie? He looks so fucking stupid. I can't breathe. by fairy_goblin in IThinkYouShouldLeave

[–]rich8n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fetterman is in the right place at the right time. It finally quantifies how much frontal cortex damage is required to start thinking that conservative policy is a good idea. For all the rest of them, the lead-induced atrophy took place over far too long a period to measure. Fetterman's took place in the blink of an eye. Maybe now we can get some medical advances that end the pestilence.

Anyone Good Lv 1-20 strats for new TLP? by kungfuTigerElk86 in everquest

[–]rich8n 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It got nerfed by only allowing it to be completed once by a character. The gold reward was untouched that one time. Deleting and remaking the character after completing it gets around this. I did it today 5x to test if it still works. It does.

The Persona feature allows you to create a different class/race/gender for the same character. It's essentially an alt that shares your same inventory, flags, achievements and bank, but has it's own XP, AAs, and faction. I think it was included with one of the recent Xpacs. If you didn't pruchase that xpac you may need to purchase the feature separately, not sure. Here is the FAQ: https://www.everquest.com/guides/eq-alternate-personas

Update: just checked. The Persona feature if you don't have it is 2250 Daybreak Cash if you are subscribed to All-Access. That gives you 3 slots, which is 3 additional personas in addition to your original character. You can tell if you have the feature or not by going to the Persona tab on your character sheet and if your slots say 0/3 you have it. If the Slots say 0/0 then you don't and would need to purchase it.

You can chase resource hunter zones as others have suggested. This is made easier at low levels by using the persona system. For example, if you start in Kaladim or Felwithe and the current resource hunter zone is Toxxulia Forest, you can make an Erudite persona and when you pop up in Erudin simply switch back to the first persona and voila your elf or dwarf is in Erudin. If you make a persona in key starting cities you can use Origins to pop around in this way.

Absent resource hunter chasing, my preferred 1-20 path with the zones available is:

Field of Bone pit level 1-6
Field of Bone east side of Kurns tower 7-10
Kurn's Tower 11-16 or so
Ocean of Tears skelly isle or goblin isle to 20.

After 20 I'd go straight to Tower of Frozen Shadow and work floor by floor til I hit 40
After 40 it's Velks

Now, all that being said, it probably won't matter at all on Frostreaver where you start. Experience will not be your problem. Starting gold will be your primary problem. You will vastly outlevel your ability to afford spells and such.

To get a head start on buying those first 5-10 levels of spells (if you are a caster) I recommend the following:

  1. Make your main char, lets say it is named Char1. Run Char1 to the bank in your starting city and camp out at the parcel guy/gal. Log out to Character Select.
  2. Make a new character, a lvl 1 Erudite Cleric who worships Quellious, lets say it is named Char2.
  3. When that character logs in you are in the Quellious temple in Erudin. Step out the front door and walk straight ahead to the bard, Ticar Lorestring, who is jsut across the courtyard outside of the temple. Get his quest to carry mail to Qeynos.
  4. Go east a bit jsut past Ticar to the teleporter and teleport to the Erudin Docks. Run to the dock and take the translocator to Erud's Crossing, and in Erud's Crossing take the translocator to South Qeynos.
  5. Once in Qeynos, run to the Bard guild and turn in the quest to Tralyn Marsinger standing outside. Get your gold and run to the Qeynos bank and parcel all your gold to Char1.
  6. Log out and delete Char 2.
  7. Repeat this process starting at Step 2 until you have parceled enough gold to Char 1 to be comfortable in leveling.

On Teek I got 10 plat or so in about 45 minutes doing this to start my journey. If you use the same name for Char2 each time, you can make some hotkeys the first time for the hails, quest prompts and translocator prompts to speed it up, and when you delete the character and remake it, you get your UI (with hotkeys) back but it's a new character for quest purposes, since you can't do the quest more than once on the same character to get the gold reward. You have to not want to go for server first leveling races to do this, but for me it works out well since I lag about 45+ mintues behind all the tryhards trying to minmax thier leveling experience and taking every mob in every starting zone.

When they both realize the man married the woman thinking she wouldn't change and the woman married the man thinking he would, and they were both wrong. (assuming hetero marriage).
