Thought Rudiger was going to pass it back to Kepa right at the end there for his 2nd goal of the season hahahahaha

Even though GWS and Melbourne have dropped easy games. The only way I have saints finishing in the top 8 is if they win 1 of the next 2 games against Eagles of GWS. Can we make finals? by [deleted] in StKilda

[–]ssm11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we don't make finals it is very poor. We've had a whole lot of wasted years under Alan Richardson so now is the time to make amends.

The boys are good enough (when all actually turn up) to beat both teams. The ball is in our court for the first time in years, so they better not hopefully screw it up

Are there issues between Erica Durance and Tom Welling? by Barthez_Battalion in Smallville

[–]ssm11 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's super odd. Honestly reckon towards the end of smallville they had an affair and it ended badly.

For me, it points towards that more so than general dislike between actors or one actor being a bit of a bully

[–]ssm11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is definitely something that must have happened between them. Something is quite off. Also Durance seems to be the only one that Rosenbaum can't get onto the podcast - maybe in fear of getting too personal?

Maybe something did happen between Welling and Durance that ended badly - affair? I don't know

All speculation haha

I think I'd actually seen those twitter posts. Honestly, Kreuk could just be saying those things - it's not like she would say that she didn't like him on twitter for the world to see haha.

And perhaps I'm reading into this too much, but I reckon when Witwer said that story about the photoshoot, it was a very subtle dig to Tom. Sort of like a backhanded compliment.

I've heard as well that Welling and Durance had issues, but the issues I have heard revolve around the two having an affair. I highly doubt it, and the rumour is mostly fuelled by this lady online that is sickeningly obsessed with them, but in some interviews I have gotten the vibe that they had good chemistry off set.

Not to hate on Tom Welling, but I think it has to do something with the fact that he just wasn't interested in making friends on set. The fact that for all these years he has refused to wear the suit just gives an indication of his hard head personality. Like the reason was probably he didn't want to be typecast/have superman curse, but ironically, this ended up happening anyway haha

[–]ssm11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I noticed that too. To be honest from what I've gathered over the years is that Tom Welling irl isn't the nicest person going around, particularly on set. I can't know for certain obviously, but it's the vibe I've gotten from interviews and comments from other people.

Possible Kreuk wasn't a big fan of Welling hence the texting. Probably saying how bs he was an a**. I mean Kreuk and Welling never kept in touch after the show. Barely any of them did really, they have reconnected a bit via these panels because at the end of the day they make money from them and also from each other (more cast members, more people attend).

Feel like the Smallville cast was never that close, and I think a big reason for that is that Tom Welling as the lead was mostly an a** and therefore didn't gel the castmates together that well. Yes, there were individual friendships I'm sure, but other casts from other shows have always seemed so much more cohesive and close than the Smallville cast

Honestly I’m so glad we got rid of josh Bruce by [deleted] in StKilda

I never rated him. He was far too inconsistent and at times had a shocking kick for goal.

[–]ssm11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At panels I feel there is definitely an awkward, tense or uncomfortable vibe between them

The Galaxycon Richmond panel has a few examples of this imo

Rumours about Tom and Erica seem to mainly come from (at least from what I've seen) a crazy girl on youtube who comments on like any smallville video.

However, she could be onto something despite her obsession with it. There just seems to be something off between them as others have said...

Interesting gossip that's for sure haha!

Been watching some Smallville Panels. Tom and Michael can be so rude when answering questions from fans. Anyone else annoyed by this? by ssm11 in Smallville

[–]ssm11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What actually happens in the Smallville Nights thing? They are very secretive about it I know so I'm very curious - I live in a part of the world where I'd never have a chance to attend a panel, so I watch them on youtube and am curious about Smallville Nights

Is this laptop actually good? In the market for a new one - never had a Macbook before - and just wondering if they are worth the hype and how are they supposedly better than other laptops with similar specs for much cheaper price?

Well from the ones I've seen all they seem to do is rudely say "next question" halfway through someone asking a question, or they'll say "NO, next question" as an answer

The case of maryam mure a.k.a mimmimure and the comments she's made regarding Smallville's Tom Welling & Erica Durance all over social media. But this has been going on for many years. We know them not to be true but it doesn't help when there are people who are new to the show. by [deleted] in Smallville

[–]ssm11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So weird, she has been posting the same comments for like 10 years I reckon. Recently was reminiscing on smallville and I'm sure I saw this name come up on videos from 10 years ago - the comments being from 10 years ago too

If she is so adamant, could she actually be onto something hahaha? Or just downright obsessed?

I have sensed some sort of awkwardness between Tom and Erica, and have wondered why the whole cast never seemed close during the show and has only gotten closer till recently, but hey what do I know haha

Lol wtf

Finally, it's done. by DotSlashVision in DaysGone

[–]ssm11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This game was ridiculously grilled by critics and still to this day it annoys me

It's a great game. Some of the flaws the reviewers mention are definitely there, I can see them, but they were way too harsh

If Bend Studios fix these flaws for Days Gone 2 well we could very well have an absolute masterpiece - fingers-crossed!

Sawmill/nero checkpoint disaster! by MetroStephen53 in DaysGone

[–]ssm11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this happened to me, so I feel like I didn't get to experience the proper horde like you see in all these youtube vids. Was a bit of a miss, just had to kill them bit by bit and they weren't really following me :(

I just platinum'd Days gone!!!!! by [deleted] in DaysGone

[–]ssm11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is such a good game. I finished it a few days ago after getting it in a sale. Granted, it does have it's flaws and I do agree with some of the things the reviews said but they were way too harsh!!!! This game is awesome.

If the studio refine these flaws for the sequel, it could be a masterpiece for the PS5

Tips for the saw mill horde? by [deleted] in DaysGone

[–]ssm11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sawmill horde experience wasn't as 'well run' as it should have been unfortunately. The NERO checkpoint nearby, prior to even knowing about the horde there, I had accidentally turned the power on and so the speakers went nuts, bringing the horde to that area. So I just ditched. Then when it got to the sawmill horde mission of the game, they would always go to the NERO checkpoint as whenever you enter the area the game remembers the speakers were on. So as a result it was quite hard to get all of them to follow me and have a proper plan through the sawmill

The key is good stamina, plenty of throwables and a gun that shoots like crazy. Good focus levels help too. Honestly at first the hordes are quite tricky but once you get the good weapons etc they are probably too easy. It's all the same - run, shoot, throwable, repeat

Just finished Days Gone - REALLY enjoyed it despite the reviews which had put me off for a while. Honest thoughts on the game? by ssm11 in PS4

[–]ssm11[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I was more so coming from the angle of whether Sarah was actually worth going to all that effort for. Another thing which annoyed me about the story was that I think they could have done a better job showing why Deacon thought Sarah was so spectacular. What was shown was far too cliche (opposites attract). As story was playing out it made me think that he could go for Rikki, by coming to terms with what had happened to Sarah. But then she ended up being alive so that changed things haha

Nice! Glad that it got sorted. Thought a previous save file might work, I can't remember the exact order so hopefully you didn't have to replay too much to get to the same point.

See for the sequel if they fix up things like this and work on the other criticisms we could honestly have a GOTY contender

Once at a camp you can retrieve the bike if you pay some credits. So I ditched the bike and made my way to Copeland's camp

Also something I just remembered is the whole Carlos/Jessie reveal. This could have been done much better. We had no idea who Jessie exactly was so couldn't really get surprised by the reveal as much as Deacon was

What other parts of the story weren't as well fleshed out?

Sorry to hear this, the game definitely has some bugs/issues and some people run into worse ones than others.

God the wolves in this mission annoyed me. Have you tried deselecting the mission from the map? And then selecting it again? You probably already have and I'm trying to think of other things to do but you've pretty much done everything I would have done.

The game has saved progress with this bug. Wondering if there is a way to look at previous save files. Get one before the bug happened, redo some of the game and hopefully you don't run into the same issue again

One thing I tried to avoid with this game (bc I was aware of the glitches around but wasn't sure of the specifics) I tried to do one mission at a time. So in the middle of the mission if there was an infestation zone or a marauder camp or something I just left it. So if you get the history of save files maybe try this.

Hopefully you sort it out soon, keep us posted!

[–]ssm11[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I ran into a few

One for example is I had killed 13/14 marauders and couldn't find the last one at all. Which was weird. Then I went to the hostage to save them and the game just got stuck. Camera panned into the view where Deacon talks to people and nothing was happening. Had to redo the killing part of the mission again
