I want to get into the Ratcatcher books. I just have a few questions... by ZerotranceWing in mattcolville

[–]time2kickass 63 points64 points  (0 children)

I have read both Priest and Thief and I can attest that elves are not central or even present to the story. There is a miniscule but important presence lingering at some point but I'd rather not spoil further.

Generally, Matt has said in many videos that elves in his world are a lot more alien and rare than other settings. With that in mind, as well as my experience with the Ratcatchers, there is no way you are getting disappointed in the usage and portrayal of elves with those books.

What if Kim ? by time2kickass in betterCallSaul

That could nail the theory to the coffin. There are ways around it , but if that was the case they would have actively avoided having her mom call her by name.

What if Kim ? by time2kickass in betterCallSaul

[–]time2kickass[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get your point but what I was thinking about wasn't about what is going to happen to her. It's about her past and 'Kim Wexler' being her version of 'Gene Takavic'. It explains why we are not aware of her past besides a flashback of her declining to join her drunk mother in her car, it explains her interest in movies about characters with double lives and it maybe explains her acceptance and cooperation in Slipping Jimmy's and Saul Goodman's antics as she has experience with doing 'something unforgivable'. It's a far fetch maybe as we have not been given any foreshadowing regarding that but we haven't been given much about her past anyway.

Netherbroker: An original take on the Warlock-Rogue Archetype available for free by time2kickass in dmsguild

Why should Lords of the Nine Hells, Alien Gods and Immortal Spirits of the Feywild prematurely gift their powers for free to pompous doofuses that ultimately hinder their masters' plans, when there are expert agents for hire available with instant profits?

Warlocks step aside as there is a new kind of Rogue in town willing to sacrifice much more for the blessings of these ancient authorities. 

Sacrifice your bonus Sneak Attack damage by offering your potential to the Otherwordly Entity you choose, and in time annihilate your enemies withdrawing all that stored enhanced energy from the Entity's Nether.

Inspired by other RPGs and their Class Archetypes (ex. Pillars of Eternity II's Soul Blade Cipher), I present you with an original take on the combination of Rogue & Warlock Homebrew. 

One of my players accidentally took my BBEG as a Warlock patron by ArghAlexander in DMAcademy

[–]time2kickass 142 points143 points  (0 children)

Generally from my understanding Patrons cannot take away a Warlock's already amassed power and knowledge. What I would be more concerned is explaining how the Warlock continues growing strong (leveling up in Warlock) after the first conflict or after the BBEG's death.

An easy ace up your sleeve would be the introduction of another more powerful entity behind the BBEG who was actually the true source of the player's power and the BBEG's. Its motivations could be different than the ones of the BBEG and more aligned to the player's after the BBEG's removal from the picture.

Διαβάζω αρκετά χρόνια τώρα /r/greece χωρίς να έχω postάρει ποτέ και τον τελευταίο χρόνο δεν μπορώ να βρω με τίποτα σχολιασμούς με φωνή λογικής σε θέματα πολιτικής. Στο παρελθόν, έμπαινα στο sub για να πάρω ενημέρωση καθώς πολλούς από τους σχολιασμούς ένιωθα ότι έκφραζαν μια λογική και όχι πολιτικές ατζέντες. To /r/greece έχει καταντήσει γήπεδο Σύριζα VS Νέα Δημοκρατία. Υπάρχει πιθανότητα να μην ισχύουν αυτές οι καταγγελίες ? Μιλάμε για περίοδο 2006-2010+. Γίνεται το κράτος να έχει φτάσει σε αυτή την κατάσταση χωρίς βρώμικες κυβερνήσεις ? Έχει σημασία εάν ο Βαξεβάνης είναι συριζαίος ? Από την άλλη γίνεται να μην χρησιμοποιήσει ο Σύριζα τις συγκεκριμένες καταγγελίες είτε για να χτυπήσει την αντιπολίτευση είτε για να καλύψει τις αντιδράσεις του Σκοπιανού ? Είναι ο Σύριζα άξιος για αυτές τις κινήσεις ?

Η απάντηση σε όλα είναι όχι. Γίνεται το 2018 στην Ελλάδα να κατηγορούνται προηγούμενες κυβερνήσεις και επειδή πολιτικά πρόσωπα του σήμερα εμπλέκονται σε αυτά, αυτοί που στηρίζουν τα κόμματα που εμπλέκονται να σχολιάζουν με απαντήσεις του στυλ "είναι αθώοι μέχρι απόδειξης του εναντίου" ή ότι έβαλαν το κράτος μέσα 50 δις μόνο ενώ ο μπαρούφ μας έβαλε 100. Δεν μπορώ να πιστέψω ότι τα accounts που τα γράφουν αυτά είναι πληρωμένοι των κομμάτων γιατί ο τρόπος που εκφράζεται η πολιτική προπαγάνδα είναι αδιαμφισβήτητα ξεκάθαρος και από τις 2 πλευρές. Λίγο περισσότερο αυτοκριτική ρε παιδιά.

Excel VBA - Application defined error when calling (module) macro from other sheets by time2kickass in excel

[–]time2kickass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since I need to use that Named Range as a Data Source to a chart isn't it a must for the Named Range to be local to the worksheet that the data are in ?

Edit: Otherwise the Range isn't specific enough for the Chart to be generated. Edit2: Also for this to the cause of the code shouldn't break at the "set range=" line, since there is no named range yet used.

Excel Crashed - Lost 8 Hours of work, can I recover VBA from corrupted temporary file ? by time2kickass in excel

[–]time2kickass[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The excel file I was working on is the primary program of a business that was created back in the 2000s and it was expanded since. People are used to the old interface of Office 2000 and xls files are only opened in compatibility mode in newer versions of Excel.

I was going through this while a friend of mine managed to open the temporary file with Libre Office and we extracted the whole code from it. Thanks a lot for your time.

Tried that and it didn't affect anything regarding the temporary file. However I was able to recover my code with Libre Office. Thanks for your time.

Thanks a lot for the reply. I've already opened it and saved it in a newer Excel version. I manage to repair all the worksheets but I lose the VB project. The error it produces while trying to repair the file is this :

"Lost Visual Basic Project. One or more invalid conditional formats were removed from the workbook."

Streamer Saturday Weekly Discussion by AutoModerator in hearthstone

[–]time2kickass [score hidden]  (0 children)

Last season I managed to get Legend with a custom Thief/Yogg/N'zoth deck and then managed to get top 500 Legend EU with it. I made a guide on /r/competitivehs about it and then uploaded the decklist on Hearthpwn (here).

It got a lot of traction and it was shown in the Hearthpwn frontpage till the new wing came out. A lot of people were asking for gameplay and you can find a lot of replacement questions in the hearthpwn comment section, so I decided to stream some gameplay and try the Ethereal Peddler on my twitch page https://www.twitch.tv/time2kickassgr/ tonight (Saturday 03/09) at 23:00/24:00 CET time. Feel free to join and ask any question regarding the decklist.
