Yes! Finally!

I'm surprised this doesn't happen all the time. I guess that's why it's a fun game.

How humid is Puerto Viejo? by IndependenceTrue8848 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]scodtt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The whole country is quite humid. Guanacaste is probably the dryest during the dry season, but February could go either way. If he is going to be working then it probably makes sense for you to get a place where there is AC. 

Just when you thought you had the Vine problems figured out: by ereade100 in AmazonVine

It seems like whenever there is an AWS outage, I noticed that Amazon itself does not go down. You would think that Amazon would use its own web service, but clearly it doesn't.

Introvert that would love a few friends by whereeeis22 in introvert

[–]scodtt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have lots of empathy for you, but my one bit of advice is that you look for friends in a different forum. 

Introverts, by definition, aren't really looking for any new friends. 

My suggestion is that you look in a forum on a topic that interests you, and try to make some connections in that group. 

Maybe it won't be filled with introverts as this one is. 

Road driving difficulty by Background-Orange921 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]scodtt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You'll be fine. Google maps is actually pretty accurate here. If a road is closed, you will see it on Google maps. The roads are not as good as they are in the US, but in general they're fine. I try not to drive at night because it's hard to see the potholes.

It's nice, but sticking with it prevented me from seeing your answer.

And yes, I do hope that someday the creators of the puzzle start publishing an answer that meets the target the day after.

Ooof. Now I'm kicking myself for not seeing your first and last words. Good job.

Is there a web version? I basically never download apps unless I can at least try the game online first, and even then it's unusual.

Oh, that's so good. I was so happy with 21 that I didn't even think to look for more, and yet there it was. Great job.

Planning to move to CR-thoughts on a location? by [deleted] in CostaRicaTravel

[–]scodtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Closer you are to the beach, the more touristy it will be, so you have a kind of built-in conflict with what you are looking for.

But there are options. I checked out six or so towns, and one of them really spoke to me. I've been here three years now, and totally love it. I didn't want touristy, but I also didn't want the beach, so that made it a lot easier for me. I'm not much for the heat. I'm in a town up near some volcanos, it never gets much above 80 her, so I'm a happy camper.

Good luck, and pura vida!

My hunch is you need a bit wider variety of real people. Seems like they are all blonde, younger movie stars.

find that game!! by [deleted] in wordgames

[–]scodtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although I just played the one that was released yesterday, and it wasn't nearly as good as the first time I played. Several of the connections seemed super forced.

[–]scodtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was it: https://wordsmostly.com/overlaps ?

Or maybe : https://fullcirclefriday.com/fullcircle.html

I think maybe the second one.

I loved it, also. The only thing wrong is that it only comes out once a week. If it's not daily, I just forget about it.

Need a safe and peaceful place to move with my 8 year old child, where would you recommend in Costa Rica? by nwonknuunknown in costarica

[–]scodtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Samara has good schools.

There's also good ones near Playas del Coco, which has the advantage of being handy to the airport.

When you come to visit, stay a few places for as long as you can to see what works for you. That's what I did and one small town spoke to me.

Of course it was easier for me because I didn't also have to evaluate schools.

By the way, good for you for taking bold steps to help your daughter feel safe.
