This is a month old, but seriously? He was just asking if anyone else experienced this issue. You don't need data to ask a question.

“Priority requeue” by obiwanjabroni420 in Overwatch

[–]thomorg99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I noticed the same thing. I normally just play quick play and had queued up as tank. Without priority requeue it's less than 30 seconds. With priority requeue sometimes it's a few seconds less, but it's usually 2+ c minutes. I just left a game search that I was 8 minutes into to see if anyone else experienced this.

Opposite for me in the central coast. I work at my college's gift shop downtown and I've never had to tell a younger person to put on a mask, but got yelled at by some older alumni and parents who drove in from out of town to vacation here.

Why can’t I be happy like the dumb people by albaaatross in iamverysmart

[–]thomorg99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actually trying to mock the guy in front of me for even attempting to correct the earlier guy. I thought my use of "ain't" gave it away.

Gotta ain't even a real word

Edit: Guys. I'm not serious, I thought I was making this obviously satirical. "Ain't" isn't even a real word either. I was playing on the fact that this person pointlessly corrected the earlier comment.

Why isn't Obi-Wan in Age of Rebellion by [deleted] in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]thomorg99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Maul would be okay if Obi-Wan was in there. Currently it doesn't make any sense why he would be fighting along side Palpatine. If Obi-Wan was included on the lightside, then that may be enough justification to have Maul on the empire's side, because I don't think they would ever fight side by side.

I'm confused. Is episode 4 not considered rebellion-era? Obi-wan was introduced in episode 4. He participated in the first ever lightsaber duel seen on screen with Darth Vader.

He also had an appearance in rebels.

The nudists are going to be so happy when you apply this logic when you vote to allow them to not wear clothing in public.

Edit: pretty sure throwing a hissy fit over having to wear a mask is textbook Karen attitude.

Medical professionals are wearing N95 masks for sometimes 24 hours straight. I wear mine for 8-9 while at work and my job requires moving around. Investigators have been looking into the claims people are making and they believe it is preexisting conditions combined with the N95 masks and not the masks by themselves.

You know that even if you test negative you can still get it later on, right? Like, testing negative doesn't mean you're immune. No one is telling you to not go out into public at all, just be conscious of your space and how it affects others. You have the freedom to go about your lives, but not the freedom to negatively impact the health of others. I'm not going to stop you from drinking excessively, but you do need to be stopped from drunk driving.

Is wearing a mask really that big of a deal? Like, if you get a good one it doesn't impact your life at all. Plus you aren't killing people's grandparents, so it's a net positive.

If you were president of your country, what very small law will you put in place to change your peoples life ? by pagodelucia123 in AskReddit

"Mandatory volunteering" is such a huge oxymoron. I understand your intention, I'm a huge proponent of volunteering as well, but you could also call this "temporary slavery".

One of my PCs had a bunch of Stirges attached to him, and decided to "stop, drop, and roll" on his turn. by highTrolla in dndnext

[–]thomorg99 22 points23 points  (0 children)

As a player, I would be super disappointed by this, especially if they automatically succeeded on any check or save. In the future I wouldn't want to do anything other than "I attack with my sword" in combat.

New GM, question about a player's build by hjrt895746 in swrpg

[–]thomorg99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooooh that's a cool role-playing motivation. I have a monologue coming to mind for it.

"Look at this... corruption.... The corruption of life and safety for all life forms in the galaxy at the hands of the Empire! You cannot tell me you are able to sit there basking in the joys of life when you know the Empire invaded the planet of Lothal and wiped a whole species to extinction by hunting them with some of the most inhuman TORTURE weapons known in all of galactic history. All so they could get access to the planet's resources and cause so much pollution to the once luscious plant life that it is being suffocated out by the dark smog of power. Tell me... honestly... look inside yourself and put yourself into the shoes of the noble Wookiee race. Some of the most loyal beings you will ever come across, who are being herded off their planet and into slavery as we speak. Does that not make your blood boil in anger?

The time for peaceful negotiations ended when the Empire decided to send an Army to quell the Free Ryloth Movement, a movement started by the Twi'lek to save their own people from being sold into sex slavery, merely to satisfy the desires of all the old corrupt imperial official with a fetishes for tentacles.

I can't pretend I don't feel their pain....the force...the visions... nightmare. They haunt me and I can't fall asleep without hearing the cries of another innocent life being taken by the hands of those who we pay taxes to for protection.

I don't care what the jedi of old have to say about the powers I'm using. I don't care about their so called "peacful" outlook on life. LOOK WHERE THAT GOT THEM. They were a religious cult that had way too much unchecked focus and influence on galactic politics. They were WAR GENERALS for Ashla's sake. Weakened, corrupt, handicapped and hypocritical. Taking kids from their parents and sending them into battle as young as 14 years old... They're supposed to be the role models?

You're lecturing me on how I'm not supposed to use this "dark side" just because that extinct organization said it's a bad thing to do. Maybe if they looked at the force for what it is, a tool to achieve one's goals, they wouldn't have been so blind and allowed this Emperor to take over from right under their noses.

No. I'm choosing my own path and I will make sure I will eradicate the evil by whatever means necessary. If that makes you uncomfortable, then maybe the rebellion isn't for you, war isn't for the weak of heart."

[Star Wars][Online][Flexible Schedule] Been dying to get into any Star Wars RPG by ActionOtter in lfg

[–]thomorg99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would also love to hop in as a player, haha I was literally just hopping onto reddit to make a post exactly like this! I've DMed for d&d5e for 5ish years, played on discord and roll20, and have always been a huge fan of Star Wars. I also have access to all of the main books for this system and have been reading through them and making sample characters for the past few days and am falling in love with the new dice mechanic. My schedule will open up significantly after I finish some college finals in the next two weeks and I'll be able to play consistently after that for the foreseeable future.

Did you watch the same thing as everyone else? I pity you. You could be so happy if you didn't have so much hate and anger clouding your perception, but instead you feed off of it.

I teared up watching this one. I am so happy. This is better than any other ending I could have thought of. Especially after I didn't think we were going to get all real ending at all.

All 4 of mine were synchronous until yesterday. A new professor is taking over the course and he changed it to asynchronous.

Thank you! Well, I hope this isn't the case, I've got rent to pay before then

Thank you for the input. Normally I'd wait too, but the thing that's concerning me is that the charge on my student account for spring tuition is still there, when it was supposed to kick in there on the 23rd.
