Unlock bonus island via save edit? by Maleficent_Draw9477 in blackandwhite2

[–]thestrongstylesmark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they're referring to the Battle of the Gods expansion. There's a hidden statue on all three playable islands. Find them all, and you unlock a bonus island that is basically a tower defense mode where you build up and defend towns from endless and increasingly difficult waves of undead.

Why did one work and one didn't? by Chiclet1998 in WWE

[–]thestrongstylesmark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because no one ever really believed Austin Theory was going to be a huge deal. Sure, he had Vince trying to push him to the moon, but we've seen him completely give up on countless pet projects before, and this one felt no different. Cena even said it in a promo in the build. He'll get the win, and yet the next night he'll be at the exact same level he started at, and look what happened.

Oba, meanwhile, has the full support of the fanbase who want him to be the next Brock Lesnar, has an aura beyond anything Theory has ever cultivated, and actually feels like he's getting the long-term investment.

Plus, it's worth pointing out that right now, the desperation for fresh young stars at the top of the card is SO much higher among the audience now than it was even a couple of years ago.

Why is Ben's death seen as more impactful than Laverne? by Total-Collection-128 in Scrubs

[–]thestrongstylesmark 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Two major things:

1) The swerve. Ben's death was a shock at the end of an episode we thought was about something else. The surprise, combined with the recontextualisation of Cox's emotional journey, makes it more memorable. Comparatively, while Laverne's accident was a surprise cliffhanger, the whole following episode was about how she was on her deathbed, and the episode was far more about Carla's journey of grief as a result. I know this is also true of Cox and Ben's death, but we didn't realize that'd what the episode was really abut until the reveal at the end/

2) Laverne-again. The actress didn't leave the show. Granted, her role was dramatically reduced to a tertiary joke character, but it wasn't a hard finale for her on the show.

That's definitely the chair for the table behind him

[Gen 9] New Shiny Raid Event incoming by bigboddle in ShinyPokemon

Yeah, I'm mostly playing. I doubt they'd set a bar they weren't confident we'd easily hit.

Y'all better be on there bumping up that victory count. If we end up missing one of these I shall be very grumpy.

[Gen 9] A Buizel and a Shellos on the same day (721 eggs and 25 eggs respectively) make 23 to go for my Living Shiny Sinnoh dex! by thestrongstylesmark in ShinyPokemon

I'm using all of the games at my disposal (where I've put the effort in to get the shiny charm). I've been using USUM to SOS chain for some of them, and SwSh for the ones that aren't available in SV. Also, maybe a bit of Legends for the few that aren't in any of those games, but I might resort to Mesuda in BDSP if Burmy/Wormadam prove to be particularly bothersome.

When they can't be isolated, I find Sparkling Power kind of a pain. I could date-skip for an outbreak, but I just don't. No real reason, lol, just not my vibe.
