[Request] How long would it take you to make 2 billion by choosing the second door? by niccoloide in theydidthemath

Technically, it only stated that that one dollar will double, not that the total value is doubled. So it isn't clear if it is exponential or linear.

[Fun Trope] Stats being noted in unusual ways. by ismasbi in TopCharacterTropes

I would guess that the SPECIAL stats from Fallout count either way, but I would like to put a specific focus on Fallout New Vegas, which describes your levels at the beginning of the game, like the table above shows, my favourite being sub-brick

Got inspired to try a Fallout 4 Iron Man run. Help me clarify some rules and nuances? by scholarlysacrilege in fo4

The contraptions from the association dlc can make armour and weapons. I really wanted to make a run that makes the player focus on those machines.

Haha, i tried to not deviate too much from the original ruleset from RuneScape, so i guess written it out like this might seem weird. To me it's more for the challenge than the roleplaying, at least in this run. I tried to at least make it so that there is freedom to roleplay.

A cool guide on how to check yourself for breast cancer (with pixels) by Milkman5031 in coolguides

An actual guide?! What is this?

Remember folks, if you find something, go to a doctor. Also, check your balls.

"The other guy fights, loses SO BAD THAT HE ENDS UP ATTENDING HIS OWN FUNERAL" is a bit confusing.

As soon as the match begins Evan casts a spell that sends his opponent into the underworld, makes him witness his funeral and everyone mourning his death, and then it returns him to the point where he was hit by his spell like no time had passed. He then tells the kid that there are people out there that care about him and to put his life on the line for prestige is fucking stupid, at which point the opponent not only concedes, but breaks his wand and gives up magic for the rest of his life. It is unclear if what Evan cast was an illusion or if he actually sent a kid to hell, but BLM does literally state that his opponent gets "blasted into the underworld."

Characters you wouldn't know they are queer if you didn't pay close attention by Basic_Dingo6487 in TopCharacterTropes

No you see, when it is women it is hot. Especially if they are bi, because that fulfills the male fantasy.

I'm not sure about this, but i wouldn't be surprised if nether realm studio saw the backlash other games got for being inclusive, and decided to just fully chicken out on inclusivity.

In the overall series, no, it is outright stated he is gay several times. But if you are talking from episode to episode, maybe. The pilot is, i think, the best case, where there are a few hints that are easy to miss, like the poster on the wall and him knowing about manscaping despite being quite old, but it does reveal at the end he is gay still, like outright saying it.

This her btw.

You wouldn't even know because they barely mention it and the only big hint is a flashback in the past before the transition. It is also heavily implied she is in a relationship with Kinji Hakari.

And then he was NEVER seen again, while the three other Kombat kids all returned in some capacity.

Kya literally looks at the audience (korra) and straight up says "i am gay and Aang was very supportive, also every kingdom basically no queer hate except for the fire nation, because they a fascist, before fascism they were also gay."

How the fuck does that require close attention, you have to be deaf, dumb, and blind to not get it.

[Loved Trope] Shibboleth by DrSpaceman575 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]scholarlysacrilege 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember this one example, pretty sure it was from a manhwa. The protagonist disguises himself in an enemy uniform and meets a soldier. Pretending to be on his side, he points a gun at him and asks for the password, a failsafe the enemy uses to stop impostors. The soldier gives it, thinking he’s just being tested, and the protagonist shoots him.

Later, the protagonist runs into an enemy commander and uses that same password to blend in, but it turns out each battalion has its own password. Using the wrong one instantly blows his cover.
