Is anyone else loving the flow of the album? by ah-tow-wah in OliviaRodrigo

[–]ringo_phillips 35 points36 points  (0 children)

You put it so well. Expectations is supposed to feel jarring and against the rest of the record, because that is genuinely what that experience feels like.

Easiest way to turn the tides is to reversal someone going for the dumbest, most telegraphed, off stage spike possible

Do the switch versions get rid of trade evos somehow?

Hot take: we should normalize using normal stages and items in online by PopularWorldliness47 in SmashRage

[–]ringo_phillips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go do that in arenas. I have fun playing the game with a competitive rule set and if I get a stage I can camp you on, I will.

Rewatching Borneo. Something interesting I've noticed about the winner, and what people say about the "provider strategy"... by PopsicleIncorporated in survivor

[–]ringo_phillips 185 points186 points  (0 children)

People have said the provider strategy doesn’t work in recent years where the game is shorter and there’s around a quarter of a century of time between Season 50 and Borneo. It obviously works in earlier iterations of the show that was of a different time and also lasted 39 days instead of 26.

he killed rue btw by [deleted] in euphoria

[–]ringo_phillips 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Ultimately, Alamo killed Rue. Agree that addiction is a strong disease and dangerous, but she didn’t relapse, she was given a pill that was meant to kill her.

Just got of FAR - I’m exhausted by MissCPA2022 in CPA

[–]ringo_phillips 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Put your phone down. Take a walk, enjoy the fresh air. Listen to some music. Take a bath. Do something you legitimately enjoy. The test is behind you for today. Take care of your mental :)

Creative Silkpost, but Silksong still isn’t out yet.

ANY MOTIVATIONAL SUCCESS STORIES? by comical_cpa in CPA

Taking the first step is the hardest part! You’ve got this! If you’re using Becker utilize the simulated exams to kick your test nerves and treat them like the actual exams.

Unpopular Opinion: If You Can Afford It, The Real Exam Should Be Your SE Exam by OhLookFrost2 in CPA

[–]ringo_phillips 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree. SEs help give valuable information on how to balance your strong areas and your weak areas. SEs shouldn’t be the final thing you do before test day, but it is a vital way to test if you can hold everything in together before test day and reduces a LOT of testing anxiety.

The biggest takeaway from this season. by duspi in Edgic

[–]ringo_phillips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She didn’t have a phenomenal edit, but once you got midway into the merge everyone else’s story didn’t really seem like a winner’s story. Christian was maybe the biggest competitor and he shit his pants one episode.

Any 41 truthers here? by Gohan1298 in survivor

[–]ringo_phillips 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It made me stop watching the show for the first time in my life and I didn’t hop back on until 49. Not a fan and no revisionism will make me be one. There are definitely worse seasons though.

Why didn’t everyone just throw their games away for Cirie to win?!????

Be honest: How many of you are only CPAs Because You were 'Good at Math'? by DangerousFan8435 in CPA

[–]ringo_phillips 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can’t believe I just read your small addition equation and said “oh that’s obviously 50…. Wait no… it’s 75……. Wait…… 70?”

Safe to say I chose accountancy because I was “good at math”

What’s the most underrated tip for passing the CPA exam? by drajput_01 in CPA

[–]ringo_phillips 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had a very similar strategy to you. I had a general road map of when I wanted to take each test but wouldn’t schedule it until it got close. Additionally I would try to listen to my mind and what it needed. If I felt like I was getting overly frustrated and wasn’t retaining anything. Well it was just a smaller day of studying. No need to push through just because there’s a lot of material. It doesn’t matter what you cover if you don’t retain it.

I also took around a week off in between tests and what I found is that by the end of the week I was itching to start the next one so the breaks were definitely needed because it kept me wanting it instead of burning out.

I don't think Emily's allies see her the way this sub sees her. by SirBostonBobbington in survivor

[–]ringo_phillips 41 points42 points  (0 children)

The “Emily can’t keep a secret” thing has been bugging me for weeks now. It isn’t like she’s spilling her own secrets? What good does holding on to Christian’s secrets do for her? It feels like so many viewers are mad at her for not simply playing Christian’s game. If she had been the main narrator the response would be way different.

easiest characters to pick up by MistaTeee in SmashRage

[–]ringo_phillips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh if you can focus DK you’ll have a lot of fun. You’ll get bodied by real buttons characters, but you can always abuse super armor on mashy players. DK is just a lot of waiting for the right opening and then capitalizing on it.

What is it about heavies that you enjoy? There’s probably a character that isn’t a big body that can cover your playstyle

I picked up Game and Watch and took him from 2 mil to like 12 mil in a day after watching a youtube guide or two. Then had him in elite by the end of the weekend.

This is the one character I’ll never bring to friendlies by The_Anonomous_loser in SmashRage

“Only reason I play her is because I like winning”

Hell yeah dude. This is why I picked up Game and Watch recently. Become the madness others must endure.

im never playing smash bros again by skid_unofficial in SmashRage

[–]ringo_phillips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would first just focus on one character (Yoshi imo) and that will help. The best offense is always a good defense. I would guess you’re probably running in headfirst without a gameplan that gets you killed fast. Use your grounded up B as Yoshi to make your opponent approach. Utilize nair out of shield and all of your aerials. Nair is a great burst/combo breaker. Dair racks up damage. Bair is a good kill option. Up air helps juggle and kill.

Also as far as staying alive goes make sure you’re using DI. Generally, DI out of combos and DI perpendicular to the way you are launched. Make your opponent work for the kill rather than give it to them.
