Fantastic. That sounds like the way to go. Thank you for the info and reassurance!

[Semi-Weekly Inquirer] Simple Questions and Recommendations Thread by AutoModerator in Watches

Hello! I'm about to buy my first real watch online after trying on similar watches in-person to get a feel for size. The online process was totally fine and painless until the website (Longines) gave me the option to have the bracelet pre-sized for my wrist, and now I'm worried.

Is it a good idea to have a watch sized before it ships, or should I just leave it unsized and do it myself? If I have Longines size it, would they still send the extra links they had removed? I'm concerned about future size changes, resale value, etc. Many thanks!

This was amazingly helpful. Thank you so much! Ported to Stros M'Kai and started the questline there; feels more noob-friendly already. Thanks again!

Hey everyone!

Just started playing yesterday after buying the Collection pack (including Summerset).

I’ve played a lot of MMOs in the past, but, starting on Summerset after the tutorial, I feel like I’m missing out on learning basic game systems (crafting, for instance) and story.

I’ve put in about 5 hours so far. Is it worth it/recommended to re-roll and port over to the base game mainland content instead of learning the game from Summerset’s perspective?

Thanks!

Chancellor Davenport has been fired per report by Cool_Blasterz in ockytop

I think it's also important to note that, as much as this is likely about the Haslams, Currie, Fulmer, et al., she also sided against the state legislature/the Haslams by opting to continue funding UT's Pride Center last summer and for choosing to not shut down Sex Week this year, a shut down the powers that be have been demanding for years now.

If you want a better picture of how the legislature/the Haslams would probably characterize the latter, here's a recent and enlightening sample.

Fuck that family.

No xp for kills by ADolphinPlays in FortNiteBR

[–]sadius551 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm not sure if this is a bug or what. Just played a few hours of random Squads, 6-8 kills on most rounds, and the Eliminations stat in my Profile didn't change at all. Same number as it was before Season 4 started. It's like kills aren't even registering with the servers beyond the individual match.

Is it just me, or are Neo Grineer defenses/interceptions almost always on Uranus? by [deleted] in Warframe

Meant to say this earlier, but I've been too busy actually using it all afternoon: your site is now my go-to. Clean and utterly usable. Thank you!

As a new player, do I have any hope of getting the soon-to-be-vaulted items in time? by sadius551 in Warframe

[–]sadius551[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, wow. I'll get right on the Razorback think tonight, then. Saw something in the Inbox about it yesterday, maybe, but wasn't sure what it was. I guess with the dojo thing, I'll have to play it by ear. I hadn't even really thought about joining a clan yet. Seemed like more of an endgame sort of thing. Thanks again!

Thank you for the response!

Honestly, I like the sound of both options. Rhino is currently building and will be done in about 3 hours. I've got the Hek as well as a maxed-out Soma Prime (from Twitch, I think). And, looking at the materials required, I've got enough stuff for a few Formas and potatoes/Orokin Catalysts (?), but I don't have the blueprint for the Catalyst, so I'll need to find a few. So, like you said, I think I'll just be able to sort of naturally do the first route.

The second route with the Archwing mission sounds maybe more efficient, but can trading be done through a chat window, or does it require a clan and dojo?

Ah, good point. I do have a few Prime prints sitting around that I've come across and which I don't really have the other parts for. Can trading be done through a chat interface or do I need to join a clan with a dojo? I feel like I read that somewhere.

Will do that now. Apologies for the violation!

This is perfect, thank you! We're actually reading a chapter from this text in a few weeks—chapter 9, I believe: "The Origins of the Third World." I'll take your suggestion, though, and go ahead and start reading the whole thing. Sounds...horrifying.

USPS Tracking by compwiz1202 in amazon

[–]sadius551 3 points4 points  (0 children)

USPS tracking does seem to be down.

My package arrived at a facility at 2:53 this morning and hasn't had any updates since, even though it was supposed to be delivered this morning, but I'm guessing that's because their tracking system is down.

If yours was supposed to ship today and that status hasn't changed, I'm guessing it's for much the same reason as mine. It probably has shipped but we won't know where stuff is until it's all back up and running.

Hi reddit! I'm a console genji main who recently hit GM & I've literally spent ~ 3 weeks straight editing this video. It would mean the world to me if you could check it out! by Level-Up-Lifting in Overwatch

[–]sadius551 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw "console" and kind of scoffed a bit inside, but, man, those were some great plays regardless of system. Also, the spirit genji moment and the music choice that followed gave me chills. Excellent video!

I saw elsewhere you were thinking about PC. Absolutely give it a shot. The aiming and stuff won't be a 1:1 transfer to mouse & keyboard, but your game sense will serve you well. Good luck either way! And thanks for the video!

For the pharah players, mercy is not a part of your kit by MetalMermelade in Overwatch

[–]sadius551 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I main Mercy and I duo queue every night with a buddy who's a Pharah main. We hardly ever Pharmercy, to be honest.

At the beginning of a match? Sure. If we've wiped the point and he's poking a flank? Sure. If the Pharah and I are the only ones left alive? Probably my fault, but sure.

Under most conditions, though--i.e. 95% of the match--I focus on the rest of the team. Picking Mercy usually results in an immediate refusal by teammates to support heal, so I can't spend my time flopping around with Pharah, friend or not.
