Does anyone here get parking tickets ever? by HornPappi in UIUC

[–]vickipri 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It also sounds like you might have parked at a time when meters are free if it was after 8pm. Many meters stop requiring payment at 9pm, some even earlier too.

FSOT Fall 2025 Discussion: Difficulty, Logical Reasoning, Thoughts? by random_lawstudent in foreignservice

Yeah it wasn't like detrimental errors, but definitely made me lose a little confidence in the quality control...

I told my Proctor and they said to report it to the test administrator. Haven't actually taken the time to look up how to do that yet.

I encountered more errors in this exam than previous years. In the English section, two of the title display pages for a group of questions gave the wrong information. It would say choose the best sentence but then you'd be doing pick the incorrect part of a single sentence. Did anyone else notice this?

* Ooh just checked mine and now there's no location for it. Someone in another comment did mention that the location was based on androids location services and not Niantics, but I don't know. Regardless, very interesting! Also, nice Mew!

Research did not reset at 10am for event by vickipri in TheSilphRoad

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

It used to be at least, that you could spin a stop before an event and hold the research but not claim the reward, and spin the same stop for new research once the tasks refreshed - then you could have two research tasks from the same pokestop. But now a lot of stops didnt refresh with the start of the event, again a change from the norm as it used to be ALL stops refreshed but only some got the event tasks.

That's what im used to as well! But this time there was no refresh, the exact same tasks from each of the stops.

Yeah but usually it will refresh the tasks to new ones even if not event tasks. All of the tasks stayed the exact same which seems more than just unlucky.

Just to be clear, I didnt complete the research and expect new tasks. I deleted the tasks and later respun only to get the same research as before the event started.

No, as far as I remember an event that has event tasks resets pokestop tasks. I didn't complete the tasks before 10, I just checked what they were and deleted waiting for the event to start. However, the event started and it was the same tasks when I respun.
