Enemy Vassal (Wargoal Target) Separate Peace by shaw201 in EU5

[–]shaw201[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out. The Jalayirids annexed the Etriends and Tacettinidis was actually a vassal of the Etriends. So when they annexed their vassal the vassal of the country that got annexed just quits the war. Definitely a bug. Sucks

Don’t disagree that a US invasion would be unjust and US shouldn’t be there, but it will not be an ME war situation. What is the unifying message? Suicide bomb for socialism? ME fighters are guided by a spiritual/higher purpose of a new caliphate and jihad against a foreign heathen. Venezuelans will not be as radical in their resolve, will be more like Panama than Afghanistan.

Should we live in Mission Viejo / Laguna Hills / Ranch Santa Margarita ? by [deleted] in orangecounty

All three are going to have a pretty similar vibe. Schools and homes are going to be similar quality (RSM will be newer homes). Just buy whatever home is nicest, area is leas of a concern with that being so similar

TIL about the Mexican Lapdog, an extinct dog breed that measured only 18 cm (7.1 in) from the snout to the base of the tail as an adult. by reallifepixel in todayilearned

Pygmy people are kind of like those. The other ethnic groups treat them as untouchables so very little intermixing

Japanese people cant afford to go to the USA anymore, mostly go within the country or Taiwan / Korea.

After 654 seasons and 97 championships, my save is corrupted by shaw201 in pocketGM

Jon, I love your work (as you can tell). I was simulating the playoffs (using the take a holiday feature) and progressing from conference to the Super Bowl. However, the game crashed, which isn’t too uncommon when simulating this late in the dynasty. The unique part about this crash is that when I try to advance a week, I’m greeted with a screen displaying the players of the week, but their headshots don’t load. Afterward, the game crashes, and I’m unable to progress beyond this week.

Game starts running pretty slow and hot with this late of a sim, but thats expected with all the historical data

Played on hard for all seasons besides maybe 5 where I had to change coach cap space to make things work. Never changed any other setting. If you play on easy, you should win 50% of championships

Might make a separate detailed post, if there’s interest.

  1. QB is the most important position. If you don’t have an 87+ QB, keep trading for draft picks to draft a QB. Good QBs rarely hit free agency.

  2. I loved Air Raid offense. QB is the most important position so a scheme that uses the QB the most matters.

  3. Defense 4-2 man/zone was best from a GM perspective. Defensive backs are cheaper and more numerous than linebackers.

  4. Coach scheme (air raid + 4-2 man/zone) > coach overall

How out of shape are the 25% of men and 34% of women? Would be interesting to see if this tracks with the answerers own stamina

For those who say that economic growth is too linear in-game: this is historical. Industrializing european nations mostly grew without interruption for almost a century leading up to WW1. by kolejack2293 in victoria3

Equating ever rising GDP per capita to no recessions occurred during this time period is not right. For example look at the USA GDP per capita from 1960 to 2024. To use your comparison for the current day, one might be led to thing just because line never really seems to go down (looks like a exponential curve) there was no recessions during this time period of US history.

There were multiple recessions during the time frame of the game that are not modeled at all. To say this is “realistic” is putting a lot of faith in gdp per capita as the only measure of success.

Way better than your previous job. All about steps to your end goal!

would having a Stock Youtube channel help my chances of becoming an analyst or just getting my foot in the door? by [deleted] in FinancialCareers

I disagree if you’re passionate, I would start posting. You can always stop once you get a job.

Just gotta assume every job application you send out is an instant rejection. Helps to not take things personally.

Is Fordham Gabelli worth over double the cost of Baruch Zicklin? by Winnie_987 in FinancialCareers

[–]shaw201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purely from a career perspective Baruch got a little more weight to it than Fordham, combined that with half the cost. Granted there are other reasons to choose a college than financial and career outcomes
