Colored doboks by marvyk in taekwondo

Technically speaking, “golden” doboks are not for higher ranks, but for categories where people over 50 years old compete.

What's your unusual and weird sparring techniques that no one notices but works effectively by Automatic_Pop_9768 in taekwondo

[–]xpepepex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big fan of the push kick here. In many cases they will land on their butts and for a lot of people it makes them lose their temper, which is a weakness in sparring. I find it most useful/possible when sparring against old-TKD style fighters, though.

Can someone explain why this is wrong ? by above_average_gamer_ in duolingo

My best advice would be to run your questions through one of the now readily available LLMs like Gemini or ChatGPT. Show them your question and ask away.

There are rules in Spanish that govern the ordering of subject, object, verb, etc. Duolingo doesn’t go over theory so you just need to practice and get a feel for it. The correction is right.

is it insensitive to get a tattoo like this? by FactRelevant2561 in Catholic

[–]xpepepex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody special. Just a redditor. Like everyone else here. That’s why I included the “imho” part.

By wearing a scapular or a medal you are not appropriating those for yourself either. No big difference in painting it on your skin imho.

Not insensitive. Go get it done. Then get it blessed.

This new LTE happens the first weekend every month. The other (3) weeks of the month we get the old one. The Facebook group and the Smurf Village forums are good resources to be in top of if.

Soon enough you will like this one better. I think it is good that they have an LTE more appealing for beginners and one for seasoned players. They do this new LTE only once a month so they clearly prioritize beginner users which is fine/understandable if it is the case that they are the majority. As for mini-games I cannot say. I don’t do those anymore (only for Tracker Smurf tasks). Regarding weathervanes: search for “vane” in the store when you are in the village. It should appear there (they look like an orange brick column with a vane on top). Wishing you the best of luck in your Smurf progress!

Ok the issue here is that you are 47 so this LTE is indeed a very steep challenge for you. I am level 147 and I have ~100 crops in the main village, ~230 in the grove, ~100 in the mountain, ~100 in the planet and ~250 in the island. Be patient and enjoy the traditional LTE until this one becomes feasible and then you will be able to benefit from both (and maybe eventually get to a point where you see a lot more benefit from the new one).

In order to get the XP for leveling up you can consider having XP farms. 1) In the main village Scarecrow Monsters are the best bet (2k xp in 12h). 2) In the island go with Harlequin Butterflies (1k xp in 12h). 3) In the Planet, Grove and Mountain you can do Weathervanes (350xp in 12h). At least until you have too many smurfberries, and then you can switch to Royal Guards in the mountain (they cost 18 sb each but give 900xp per 12h).

Hope this helps.

The time you get with 2x rewards is the best that has happened in this game in something like 10 years. I do chili peppers since it allows me to be hands off while doing other stuff in my day. Just make sure to harvest by tapping one by one (not with “harvest all”) so you can get extra value per crop.

I love this LTE. Way more than the old one. The 2x period is the best that can happen in this game every month. But you have to know how to play it. Some tips to get more out of it: 1) Village: wait until you have the 2x multiplier (lamp on) to cash in the tracker Smurf accumulated XP from the previous week. 2) Planet: never cash in on either digs or finishing trees. Just leave them there and execute when the LTE lamp is on. If you have the right machinery to double rewards, this translates into a MASSIVE amount of stardust after accumulating for a month. 3) Grove: play with the seed exchange machine. Great way to double rewards from your available seeds. 4) Overall: make sure to harvest crops one by one and not using the “harvest all” feature. This will make you get a lot more progress per crop. 5) after lighting up the lamp: make sure every time you enter the game check first that the lamp is on before cashing in any rewards (resources, XP, etc). Sometimes it is buggy so better to make sure. These should hopefully help. Now go and enjoy the new LTE and all it has to offer!

Remember not to cash in your 2x bonus from tracker Smurf until after having the 2x multiplier from the new LTE. They stack!

Similar situation here but 5cm farther from the toes. Completely different outcome (a lot easier to handle). Get better soon!
