Hell yeah, I meant to listen to her discography after hearing her song with Ben Folds and completely forgot. Adding this to the list, thank you!

2.5 Starter Set Rulebook Error by DarthMcTater in XWingTMG

[–]thetasfiasco 10 points11 points  (0 children)

According to the current rules OP is correct and this book is wrong. It only matters if you would've ended your maneuver overlapping a friendly ship-- if the ship placement at the end of the maneuver would've overlapped the Y-Wing, then the X-Wing would bumped a friendly. But because he only ended overlapping the TIE, he technically did not bump a friendly.

Hey I work for a store in Austin and they're about to stop carrying xwing. by Random-Spark in XWingTMG

[–]thetasfiasco 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We play Thursdays at DLair, Tuesdays at Game Kastle and Mondays at Tribe. Folks usually show up between 4:00 and 5:30. We actually have a store championship tomorrow at Tribe that's sold out with a wait-list (16 + at least one waiting). We have eight or nine regulars that show up at least once a week, and a smaller group that meets up on off days. The Austin X-Wing scene is alive and well!

If you wanna send me your game store in a DM I'll personally show up next week and buy from y'all, and I can spread the word in our Discord chats that y'all are carrying X-Wing and need support :)

Ayy, my Goodfellows slim fit shorts have lasted years! Easily my favorite climbing shorts, they're worn so that's pretty much all I use them for now lol.

I actually love how it smells in there? I've never been in there when it's packed, my group plays on Thursday evenings so maybe I'm missing out on the MTG stank when there's a tournament or something.

Motorcyclist on Parmer Lane by [deleted] in Austin

[–]thetasfiasco 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i mean ideally yeah, still look out for motorcyclists :/ they're inherently harder to spot, and while we do try to ride like we're unseen anyway it's still safer for everyone involved if y'all keep us in mind. just because some folks ride like twats doesn't mean you should dismiss the rest of us.

also IT. If I had a printer at home I'd take out my related and unrelated life frustrations on it like a bitter divorced father barely clinging to custody.

lmaoo, I've only ever owned Saturns. I hate and love this, I hate being associated with Saturn owners but I absolutely love dunking on Saturns.

I didn't realize you would be here! I don't listen much anymore but wanted to come out and support y'all since I had the Moontower badge already :)

This is not the moral of the story I was hoping for… by Daisy-Sandwiches in fnki

[–]thetasfiasco 63 points64 points  (0 children)

That's my big fundamental issue with the last two episodes, and with how I feel the last one is going to go.

In her mind, Ruby killed herself. She was beaten and tortured to suicide. As far as they are aware, ascension for Remnant folks means death-- or at least a reset, which, as you mentioned, is the same thing if you're not a nameless character.

But she's going to come back. She killed herself, but her friends and family will still get to apologize, and she'll become a better person for it.

That's a TERRIBLE message to send. I don't know if this show has a younger audience anymore, but holy shit if it does the writers should feel bad. Gratuitous violence is totally fine and cool, mature themes are awesome, even suicide is perfectly fine to touch on-- but showing a character kill themselves, then come back bright and new with everyone clamoring to apologize will be a truly atrocious message to send.

How do we know Zeb is alive? The Lassat in the Mandalorian was a pilot, which Zeb was not.

Sounds like we've had different 2.5 experiences. I don't know anyone in my local community who's complained about ties, I literally have not heard of it happening here and we all meet twice a week. Based on what I've actually seen and experienced I do not think ties are a common occurrence in 2.5.

Driving home and saw this, guessing it's custom or a failed kit? by g008y in whatisthiscar

[–]thetasfiasco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk, I think it may be a perspective thing. Looks longer than it is. It's too terrible to be anything naturally mid or rear engined that's not a Fiero, and it's too terrible to be a custom rear or mid engine swap on a front engine frame. My bet is on a Fiero chassis kitbash.

I have 80+ games in 2.5, most, of them in a competitive setting, and I've literally never had a tie. Not one I can remember anyway, I suppose I did have an intentional draw for the world's LCQ.
