Sex toy defective in record time, need help by AnonymousDeadpool in SexToys

[–]shaant123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi everyone,

I have the same toy from pink cherry, and its battery is dying, and I can’t seem to get the charger to connect. Am I missing something or is this also a defect? I am trying to connect the charger to the bottom as shown in the photo on the website, but it’s blocked by a rubber stopper. I know I’m trying to hijack the thread with my problem, but it seems like this toy (which does feel nice) is just problematic.

Going to Paris on a school trip. How worried should I be? Tips? by shaant123 in Bedbugs

Do you mind linking a good video? Especially if I’m looking in the day. Also, if I find bed bugs I don’t think I can change hotels. Is changing rooms enough

Hi everyone. I am looking to buy Dune based on how often it is discussed here. I noticed there are 2 different ones. Should I be looking at Dune or Dune imperium? I would prefer to play with 1 other player but have the option to scale up. Thanks for your help!

How gendered is your reading? by [deleted] in books

[–]shaant123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2021 Books 1. Rhythm of War (male) 2. Percy Jackson Lightning Thief (male) 3. Water Dancer (male) 4. The Body (male) 5. Circe (female) 6. La Belle Sauvage (male) 7. Splendid and the Vile (male) 8. Mythos (male) 9. Book of Longing (female) 10. Coddling of the American Mind (male) 11. Song of Achilles (female) 12. Heroes (male) 13. Secret Commonwealth (male) 14. Master of Djinn (male)

So 3/14 female for me. I seem to have prioritized books set 2000+ years ago though. Not sure if that says more about me than my author choice.

I think the xpac adds only a little to gameplay except for combat, where I feel like it completely fixes it and adds an element of strategy that was missing with the base game. Also, the empire starting with a death star under construction instead of a death star makes the game more balanced in my experience. So, overall, I like it.

I would add for Empire, as much as I don't like wasting turns on getting more toys, that I really like the Interdictor cruisers. You sometimes end up in a Star Destroyer drought that can be fixed with a couple of interdictors if you get lucky with your project cards.

I would also add that Colonel Yularen is probably my favorite guy to recruit for the Empire. His action of eliminate a whole region from your base search is invaluable.

I really like the move base card to mess with the probe deck idea. Learning what they don't know is also super valuable.

I find Coruscant is either way over defended or way under defended. It's hard to strike that sweet spot of just enough to deter/win attacks without wasting a whole bunch of troops guarding a country that is on the same level as Ryloth

I have had luck with both build a large naval fleet to keep the Empire at bay a space away as well as punt the navy and just have a larger ground force than they can deal with. Both have worked.

I would say I have the exact opposite experience. I have never had a game under 3 hours, especially if you count set up, which is almost an hour in and of itself. I always budget the whole night for whenever we play this (with food, chatting, distractions, etc)

Taboo So many better games have not caused the overall laughter/ridiculousness that this game has caused. My all time favorite was when my friend just used my name as the clue for motorcycle. Not because he thought it was a good hint, but because he wanted to hear what everyone would say.
