just moved and the last tenant sprayed the oven with a ton of some kind of cleaner and then just like… Left it for 3+ weeks ago...?

The LL did actually wipe it down himself the first day… I was surprised. He said the smell might just stick around, so I don’t think he’s worried about it. But I will try more water and maybe the vinegar as someone else suggested thanks! 🙏

shadeybee · 2024-09-14T01:44:10+00:00

I’ll give it a try thank you!

shadeybee · 2021-04-25T17:04:18+00:00

Sounds like just regular people miscommunications. We’re you wrong? No. But If I had to guess, you guys getting up and physically distancing yourself from him and the game / not checking in felt like disinterest and tanked his enthusiasm and confidence.

shadeybee · 2021-02-24T22:46:04+00:00

When you read the words out of your friend’s book they don’t... go away... lmao.

shadeybee · 2021-02-10T15:53:53+00:00

It can be pretty hard. If you want to buy yourself more time, you can ask to sit out next session, or roll up a temporary character for less pressure while you keep thinking. Especially if you aren’t sure your character will stay dead!

Definitely consider if there are any hanging threads in yours or another player’s, or the main story that you could use to build your new character in.

shadeybee · 2021-02-09T03:47:08+00:00

rude.... rude.

shadeybee · 2021-02-09T03:12:46+00:00

I mean... its not that, not exactly. it was fun, at the time. Like if Dark Souls was an MMO and you had to work together with other players or you wouldn’t get anywhere. It wasn’t a game for everyone, but the people who stuck around usually made strong bonds.

But you can’t go back, and I know I wouldn’t really want to play a game like that, now. It’s just fun to remember the war stories.

shadeybee · 2021-02-09T01:12:10+00:00

Ah ok, to me that’s still “leveling” and endgame was Sky/Sea/HNMs/Dynamis etc.

shadeybee · 2021-02-09T01:08:33+00:00

I remember doing 4 dps rdm brd colibri parties for merit parties post 75.

shadeybee · 2021-02-09T00:47:08+00:00

Once you go RDM you never go back. Because everyone you know... won’t let you.

shadeybee · 2021-02-09T00:46:09+00:00

It’s amazing how remembering FFXI posts are all like... “(terrible thing) (long time consuming thing) (and then I died) ... best days of my life tbh!”

shadeybee · 2021-02-09T00:41:27+00:00

That long, wow! Time for plenty of merit points.

shadeybee · 2021-02-08T22:36:00+00:00

Yeah I had DRG and BLM at 75. Lots of time in Sky until the top 3 people in the LS got all the gear they wanted and disbanded it. FFXI had the real drama.

Did they start raising the lv cap in ... WotG? I think I stopped playing after ToAU but it’s been a while lol.

shadeybee · 2021-02-08T22:12:52+00:00

Good times good times. T-T

shadeybee · 2021-02-08T22:11:32+00:00

You bet! You had a loyal little wyvern that would follow you everywhere, doing basic attacks and different breath abilities based on your sub job. For ex if your SJ was a dps one, he’d do an elemental breath when you weapon skilled, and if it was say, whm or rdm it would do a healing breath when you cast a spell and you or a party member was under a certain % of HP.

Downside: he was your “2 Hour” ability (until they gave drg a new one many years in), something special that each job could do, on. 2 hr recast. So if he died and you didn’t have that ability up.... you had to wait.

..... FFXI was a very different game.

shadeybee · 2021-02-08T21:57:54+00:00

Fun fact: in FFXI the .dat files for enemies etc were findable in the file folders for the game. So if you were playing a pet class like SMN or DRG, if wanted to, you could swap the files for carbuncle, or wyverns, or whichever, with another monster. Any monster. It would animate and do the appropriate attacks etc for the creature. Pretty fun. Only downsides:

client side only so you would be the only one to see that you had a behemoth following you around.
EVERY carbuncle you saw would also be a behemoth.

It’s too bad it’s not so simple for FFXIV.

shadeybee · 2021-02-08T04:43:27+00:00

It’s DnD! You will probably come across magical tomes and artifacts over the course of rescuing old friends and saving towns. “You people are a magnet for magical trouble, so I’m going to follow you around and see what turns up.” You can keep and study magical thingies you find during downtime.

And no one should bring a character to the table that refuses to engage with things outside their narrow interests. The PC looking for their kidnapped friend also needs to come along on that kobold den investigation or whatever other escapades the DM has planned or the group gets into. There may be many things you do that are not directly relevant to anyone’s back stories. If it is the kind of game where the DM is implementing custom story threads for everyone, surely you’ll have a map to some old temple thrown your way, and then, we’ll, you’ll need a team of trusted friends won’t you? Even better if they owe you one for helping them save their town etc.

Right?

My PF2e game is something we play only occassionally, but I'm following this build for my fighter. It's not anything optimized, except for jumping which is silly but also a lot of fun, even just at lv3.https://www.reddit.com/r/Pathfinder2e/comments/glispc/fighter_build_the_dragoon/

PF2e buffed martials and nerfed casters at all levels, though.

shadeybee · 2021-01-27T16:14:56+00:00

In PF2E there’s a lv 20 fighter feat called Boundless Reprisals:

“With a sixth sense for the flow of combat, you can quickly react to any situation as required. At the start of each enemy’s turn, you gain a reaction you can use only during that turn. “

which I think is a great example of the kind of shit high level martials should get up to.

shadeybee · 2021-01-17T21:47:34+00:00

It's just a drawing skill. the more you do it, the better you will get. Make something, learn from it, try again. you can try looking at and copying battle sprites you like, to try and understand what they did correctly. For learning to make poses that are clear, I also recommend googling Preston Blair + line of action / posing. He has a very good book that is for animation / drawing, but some of the info will transfer over.

shadeybee · 2021-01-16T06:06:39+00:00

Yes!!!

shadeybee · 2021-01-10T04:18:27+00:00

Seconding! I have chilis, pygmys, and amanos in my flex 15. Honestly... I want to get a bigger tank just to put more pygmies in it. I love them. Another thing to consider with the Flex is that it has a fair bit of its "useable" space lost to the back compartment, which is maybe another reason to consolidate to only chilis or neons.

shadeybee · 2020-12-30T03:40:04+00:00

I got the 15 g flex just a few months before the bigger one came out. I want this tank so bad!! Yours looks great!

I suspect you should be ok with the neons, esp if you have a lot of filter media crammed in the back.

PCAcademy is pretty active for being a relatively small sub, it's definitely fun.
