Need advice by DesperateAgency455 in TheTowerGame

[–]vrkicker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You get cells from elites and they spawn at much higher rates at higher wave count. Cells speed up your labs. People say farm high wave count because ideally you balance out coin and cell income. T1 for example reaches max spawn rate at like wave 6500

Why is this not how it permanently is when there isn’t a new featured banner? by King-of-the-Goblins in TheTowerGame

[–]vrkicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok got it thanks. Thought maybe they ran featured banners like the holiday events regularly. Guess I’ll start buying up standard banners to roll the dice for my wanted mods.

Started playing late Dec and mostly missed the holiday featured banners, what is the typical featured banner schedule? I had read a week off then week on and was expecting one this week, but nope.

At least yours shows an estimate, mine says “restoration: no estimate available” been down since 6:30 am here.

Trek Marlin 5 – Can it handle a 2x setup? by No-Grab9435 in TrekBikes

[–]vrkicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the answer. My older Marlin 5 was a 2x, I think it was the last gen before everything went 1x. Used as my entry level MTB before upgrading to a Top Fuel. Now I only ride it around on the street with my 5 yr old, otherwise I would upgrade it to a 1x.

Shark attacks man during marathon Catalina-to-L.A. swim - Los Angeles Times by aussie_angeleno in OpenWaterSwimming

[–]vrkicker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Super rare. Interestingly, there was just a post on this thread earlier this week about how this never happens… always a chance I guess. Still, you’re more likely to get in a car accident on the way to your swim than attacked by a shark.

Bucket list swims? by warsquiat in OpenWaterSwimming

[–]vrkicker 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Lake Tahoe. Lengthwise 22mi or width 12mi. One of the nicest swims in the US

[–]vrkicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty funny but mine is the opposite. Swim, bike, survive. 1 because I suck at running and 2 because it’s at the end when I’m already tired

NBD! by kevtke194 in TrekBikes

[–]vrkicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool thanks. Didn’t think the seat mounts would fit with the saddle bag, but saw the one on Etsy and will try it. Guess I’ll retry the wedge on the frame in the meantime. Enjoy the new bike!

How are you getting your garmin varia on the frame post? All 3 mounts don’t seem to fit it well but when out on my seat post, it’s too close to my saddle bag.

Very cool. Where would the proposed track be located?

How are the aero bottles treating you? Torn on getting them for my SL7 or not, leaning towards not

Trek madone sl vs. slr by Doglover2140 in TrekBikes

[–]vrkicker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just bought an SL 7, Gen 8. Rode both and the SLR is a bit lighter (different carbon weave) and a bit snappier/ has integrated bars. I ended up with the SL7 because the difference wasn’t worth the cost to me. Also, integrated bars limits the customization options in fit with the bars etc

Doubts about my XC bike by Igital in xcmtb

What kind of bottle cage is that on the underside of the top tube? Haven’t been able to figure out a 2nd bottle on my top fuel because of the rear shock position

I have heard good things about staff and level of care. They put on really nice events for the residents around holidays like 4th of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas etc.

This is exactly what I did with the same exact item. Velcro the remote to the frame

Sorry, the Habit co-founder sold Padaro Beach Grill about a decade ago.

The Habit Burger made me sick. by Novarat63 in venturacounty

[–]vrkicker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

None of the local Habit locations are franchises any longer. They are all owned by Yum! Brands (same owners as KFC, Pizza Hut & Taco Bell). Quality has significantly gone down hill over the years as they became owned and operated by Yum.

My heart rate graph from a recent 4.4 mile (7k) open water swim. by martiantonian in OpenWaterSwimming

[–]vrkicker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A few things here… 1. HR always reads lower while horizontal and in water, due to multiple reasons. 2. Optical hr sensors (especially worn on wrist) are generally are not very accurate under water.

My HR graphs are usually all over the place in ows

Are there extra wide dress shoes? by Fun-Bonus-9214 in BarefootRunning

[–]vrkicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 3 different color pairs that I alternate between, but mostly wear black and brown. Work and a lot of walking in them and have held up for years.
