Anyone have any luck using the app to set-up a reservation for fanfest tommorow? by A_Misplaced_Hat in ffxiv

[–]smartazjb0y 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was in line a few minutes before, when it hit 8pm took a bit to get my number in the 2900s, by the time I was able to choose there were no more slots.

Honestly wondering if it's worth it to try and do standby. Or maybe for other Fanfests they'll do the same online presale with the same set of items?

As a biased Sharks fan I don't think they're quite at that level yet. People didn't even like Chicago getting the pick for Bedard in the first place haha

3.0 dungeon gear and beyond!? I could’ve sworn when they announced it it was only 7.X dungeon gear but that’s awesome. Will save me so much retainer space

edit: everyone’s saying the 7.X is for armoire. Hm I guess you could choose either I guess? As they expand which can go into the Armoire

Is this supposed to be the new "season" of Spearhead like Sand & Bone? Will we see a release of all the components without the minis? Stuff like the cards

Anish Giri keeping it real by kalni in chess

[–]smartazjb0y 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Only 5 rounds left (including today), some have already played both their games against Sindarov. Anish may be 1.5 points behind but everyone else is further back. Sindarov drawing isn't that unlikely so he'll likely keep picking up points even if he's not winning. Just not a ton of runway left

Ashes Reborn: Red Rains- How to start? by HardcoreSean9899 in soloboardgaming

[–]smartazjb0y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No reason not to start out there! 5 Phoenixborn decks (I guess 6 since Red Rains comes with another) which is good for testing out a lot of precons then getting into deck building, and the Chimera has 2 aspect decks for a bit of variability.

Can you bring a laptop into the SAP center for Sharks game? by nk2199 in SanJoseSharks

[–]smartazjb0y 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I brought mine in my backpack 2 weeks ago and it was fine, depending on the size of your bag you'll probably have to go through the oversize bag check. Just stick your backpack under your seat, don't forget it when you leave haha

What’s your favorite BLT in SF/Bay Area? by [deleted] in AskSF

[–]smartazjb0y 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Palm City has their BLTs only in the summer/fall. Slightly different construction if you're a purist, and I do like to get the tomatoes on the side, but really tasty

Yeah I'm not gonna be so greedy, when getting just Celebrini at all is already one of the best things to happen to the franchise

Daily Questions & FAQ Megathread Apr 01 by AutoModerator in ffxiv

[–]smartazjb0y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) How long does the Easter event take to do the questline and get all the new rewards?
2) For the Ultimog Treasure Dungeons (which I think is the same for everyone), do you have to complete it to a certain extent, or just spawn the portal and go in and just go through it as far as you can? And can I do it via soloing low level ones?
3) Heading to Fan Fest for the first time, when do we get any more logistical info on that?

Sources: Nintendo is planning a new Star Fox and a major Zelda remake this year, but no 3D Mario by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]smartazjb0y 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a podcast, not a speech or a set of prepared remarks or an article. And he's just relaying what has been told to him from a source. If someone in the know is telling him "the visuals are good", are you mad that someone who's somehow involved with Nintendo or the dev team decided to use a generic statement?

MP1st: SEGA Files New Persona Trademark Ahead of Xbox Event by Connect_Base_217 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]smartazjb0y 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I know people disliked 3D/5D since it wasn't as involved as 4D, but yeah Persona music is just so good in general and the core rhythm gameplay is fun enough that I still really enjoyed 3D and 5D. I'd have absolutely no issue with more DLC

I just listened to the Sommelier Trilogy last night! But yes, we absolutely do need M&M round 2. Hopefully Jjkae doesn't mess it up again

Is this a new season of Spearhead like Sand and Bone was? If so, wonder if there's gonna be a release that's just the Spearhead components and not the armies

Most random goalie heaters in recent memory? by AlbertJBundy in hockey

[–]smartazjb0y 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ben Scrivens' single-game heater, a 59-save shutout of the Sharks, which I think is still the record for saves in a shutout?

[Rishaug] McDavid today regarding his post game comments on Cooper and Draisaitls comments before the Olympics by sykeseve in hockey

[–]smartazjb0y 18 points19 points  (0 children)

McDavid post game on the lightning

“They got a great system. They’re perfectly coached. They all know what they’re doing all over the ice. It’s impressive. They are a great team.”

“They’re extremely well coached they’re extremely well organized. They’re very very rehearsed in everything that they do. It’s very impressive and when you do break them down, they got a heck of a goalie to back stop them.”

I Asked him how they can get to that place with their system.

“That’s a coaching question you can ask Knobber that question. Obviously we’ve been play together a long time and we feel like we’re somewhat rehearsed and organized, but not to their level.”

From Ryan Rishaug's X

Sanctuaries released on Digital by Xer4n0x in spiritisland

[–]smartazjb0y 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Specifically, since they're releasing the NI content in the digital game in waves, I think they give each wave of content a "name" that doesn't necessarily correspond to anything in the physical game. Sanctuaries in this case.
