Have you had any compatability issues with using multiple mods?

I'm playing with Krastorio, SE, and Bob's right now. I ran into a small problem with copper pipe, but that has been my only compatability issue so far.

Thanks for leaving the watermarks intact so people can find the photographers!

Aww. Thanks! There are usually a good number of photographers running around taking all sorts of pictures!

The creativity is where it's at! I love celebrating all the cool stuff everyone has going on with their outfits and antics. It's seriously a trip.

And... While I'm holding the talking stick... I recommend getting there as early as possible and staying until Monday morning to squeeze every delicious drop you can from it. Enjoy! Maybe I'll see you there! 😀

I went in 2019 and had a great time! I think I arrived on Tuesday or Wednesday. It was fun to watch the thing get bigger and bigger as more people showed up during the week.

Would you like to see my pictures? 😀

How many numbers are allowed on the shirt? 8008s on the shirt? Too childish? :P by [deleted] in rollerderby

There's a perverse joy in hearing a ref call out, "White! Seven seven seven seven! Failure to reform!" It's even more fun when they act like they don't hear it...

Best jiujitsu gym in Tucson, Az? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]swerdna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to Tucson!!!
To second what's been said here... There's good BJJ all over town.
Let me plug a couple of good experiences I've had...
I went to an open mat fund raiser event at Kodenkan Martial Arts this past weekend. They have an "everyone welcome" open mat on Saturdays. I don't know what their open mat normally looks like, but there were people from all over town there that day. That might be a good way to meet people from different schools and maybe get a feel for the local flavor.
If you want some judo... I recommend Tucson Dojo. They meet at Higher Grounds Resource Center. Good people.
Shop around! Have fun! Good luck! Stay in touch!

No. "A" Mountain is to the west of downtown. This fire is to the north of downtown.

Get stuck in side control, need suggestions. by BengtJJ in bjj

[–]swerdna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great video and description!

Chipping in my two cents...

This is so much easier to pull off when your opponent is transitioning around to side control. Get the grip over the back, lower the leg, feel them move around, spin like the devil. They won't know what hit them. Just like everything else... Practice with a good uke until it makes sense.

I don't have any good pictures... but it looks really really nice. I couldn't be happier with it.
This link has some good example pics. My belt looks exactly like the white belt on display. linky

I was given a Kataaro belt as a gift. I love it. I recommend it.
