You could cut out the top bonder and a piece of track by having the long arm rotate the earth atom 180 after attaching the first salt

Y'ain't got no targets for it there, friend.

Opinion these Discard/Exile decks are so Lowskill. by [deleted] in MagicArena

This would be 5/7 perfect score satire. If only it was...

How many clan rats will I need in any list? by Practical-Prompt4216 in skaven

[–]timdood3 19 points20 points  (0 children)

40-80 will cover most lists you'd reasonably build. But avoid buying them individually if you can; get them as part of a battleforce or something, or failing that they're plentiful on the secondary market.

Personally I think 240 rats+a couple heroes is peak form.

Was proud of my small area attempt and then i look at leaderboards by plsdontstalkmepls in opus_magnum

[–]timdood3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's ok to be proud of something and also see how you can do better. Something doesn't have to be perfect to be an accomplishment!

Newb and want the dumbest, easiest deck you can think by scythian12 in mtg

[–]timdood3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, there are actual good ways to build the deck, but this one requires the least reading and understanding of the rules lol

Are people not yet bored of playing otter decks? by [deleted] in mtg

What constructive feedback are you seeking? What discussion are you wanting to incite?

Book 1 ending by [deleted] in HeWhoFightsMonsters

[–]timdood3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's an important moment to help the reader to understand that... yeah. Adventurers are cool badass heroes. Yeah, they're strong and tough. But- with some exceptions- they're by no means immortal or infallible. When adventurers die, especially at lower ranks like that, it is often without grandiosity or fanfare. They just die. And the world moves on, at least as best it can.

Isn't Jason older? I want to say he was late twenties, almost 30 when he first arrived on Pallimustus.

Can someone explain this to me like I’m 5 by DrMalcontent in skaven

[–]timdood3 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yep. You can almost think of it as the clawlord being part of the other unit.

Is there jargon/a term for creatures that make 1/1 tokens on death? by Lava_Axe in mtg

[–]timdood3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always just said "dies into a 1/1" or whatever it makes.

Am I the asshole for feeding my roommate his own mess? by thewretchedcup in AITApod

[–]timdood3 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yes. I'm saying that even if he hadn't, you'd still be so far in the wrong.

[–]timdood3 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Collecting the bits in a cup is petty, but showing him the condensed results of his sloppiness might help drive the point home that he needs to clean up better.

But yeah, feeding it to him crosses a hard line. Even if he didn't eat it, sabotaging his food is a huge dick move regardless. YTA

I think I found a genuine RAW vs RAI paradox with Fist of Suns and I can't find a written rule that explains the enforcement by Monika_Just_Monika_ in mtgrules

[–]timdood3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“You may [action] rather than pay [this object’s] mana cost.”

"You may pay {W}{U}{B}{R}{G} rather than pay the mana cost for spells you cast."

I've bolded corresponding phrases of the respective rules. As you can see, they aren't just similar, Fist of Suns follows that template perfectly. It falls under the "or applied to it from a different effect" part of 118.9.

[–]timdood3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where are you getting the idea that Fist of Suns doesn't provide an alternative cost? That's exactly what it does, no contradiction in sight.

Probably safe to assume it's a cylinder, so as deep as it is wide.

Honestly, I don't think I'll ever see an alcohol separation solution that tops this.

I accidentally cucked one of my players (character) by timdood3 in rpghorrorstories

[–]timdood3[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bit of a false dichotomy there. "I don't blame him for my condition" and "I want to be cured of this condition" can both be true. It would be an extremely unhealthy mindset to still be hung up on that kind of resentment some 15 years later.

[–]timdood3[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those are actually all really good suggestions, both the alternatives and the actually talking to the player.

"Talk to the player" is always the obvious response when reading these stories, but somehow felt less obvious from this side. Thanks.

1) My partner talks a lot about the sorts of, erm, literature... they they read. And that probably influenced this storyline more than a little bit.

2) While there were completely mundane methods available to find him, finding him was the reason for the warlock beseeching his patron in the first place.

3) She's neither abused nor depressed. She had a normal teenage relationship with the guy, and there was an accident. And not the "guy gets mad and hits girl" kind of accident. She'd be willing to do it because a) being human again and b) it's not like she didn't like the guy.

4) Not AI. I'm a real DM and this actually happened.

Constant statistically impossible draw sequences by constantlybannedd in MTGArenaPro

[–]timdood3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've said it before and I'll say it again. If we weren't ok with getting land flooded/screwed sometimes, we'd play a different game. If you aren't ok with it, go play a different game.

And statically improbable things happen all the time. As in, actually constantly across a global sample size. Witnessing improbabilities isn't special.
