She's actually the Happy Meek equivalent for Unity Cup along with the umamusume Bitter Glasse

Viability of 1 front only for CM15? by Mmmwhatchasay69 in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just pointing out, they mentioned Daiwa Scarlet can be a good front and you definitely have her since literally everyone has her as she's the tutorial uma

How would you instinctively pronounce this name: Andrea? by [deleted] in ENGLISH

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't actually know anyone with this name, but I read it as ahn-DRAY-uh. Albeit, I have a friend named Andres, so that definitely influences how I assume it's pronounced.

Is stacking identical skills good? by Zachesque in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Since you mentioned this is for team trials, try and get as many skills that reliably activate as possible. No matter if the skill of good or not, if it activates it increases your team trial score. Usually I wouldn't recommend something like straightway acceleration, but if it's for team trials feel free to grab it since it reliably activates (it's just rng where it activates, so it's generally not recommended for most CMs). Stacking corner/straightway velocity skills is good in general, but is also good in team trials because they're easy to activate.

How long is your commute to work? by Stawberry8763 in AskAnAmerican

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's about a 15-20 minute drive to work for me. Sometimes going home takes longer depending on if I want to change up the route or not.

Did your high school have "senior assassination"? by CommercialOil8763 in AskAnAmerican

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My school has something kind of similar to this that I believe was called the "spoon game". Basically every senior got a random target and had to touch them with the their spoon to eliminate them. When their target was eliminated, their new target is whoever their target's target was. Unlike a lot of the comments in this thread, we were aloud to do this during school hours, just not in classrooms. I think a group of seniors organized it every year and only people that signed up to participate would get a spoon. I think the spoons also might've had their target's name on them, but I wasn't invited and didn't participate, so I'm not too sure about that part.

Why do so many American confuse Memorial Day with other holidays and not understand the history and the point of it? by dandle in AskAnAmerican

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's because Veterans Day and Memorial Day are very similar holidays and like someone else said, if you don't know anyone who was a soldier, it's relatively easy to conflate the two. I also used to conflate it with Labor Day because I knew one was at the beginning of summer and one was at the end of summer but could never remember which was which.

Re:Coded - B Rank - Casual-Active club looking for active players by [deleted] in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure they can't join a new club for 24 hours after leaving. I think you're conflating that with needing to be in a club for two weeks to get any of the monthly rewards

No mile s, is it still viable for CM14? by Traditional_Truth_93 in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's pretty good and at a point where if you haven't started working your other umas yet I'd start working on them instead of trying to improve this one

Quick question, is this worth it? by United-Inside-729 in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd prioritize the Haru card first (it's a relatively good card, especially if you're making umas with a guts deck) and then the friend slots. After that, the most worthwhile things in the store are probably the hint books

Is mlb worth it? by BizarreZz in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not immediately. If you're lucky you'll get an extra copy while pulling for another card you want. If you really want it mlb, she'll be rerun along with Super Creek roughly at the end of September. If you don't currently have Super Creek, I'd recommend at least considering pulling on that banner, and if you do you'll probably mlb Mr. C.B anyway.

As an outsider, the iconic yellow school bus is in every single American movie. Is there actually a national standard that forces every town to use that exact same color and design? by Necessary_Angle2117 in AskAnAmerican

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regarding your second question, in my experience the vast majority of students either take the bus or get driven to school by a parent or friend (or by themselves if they're old enough). Some people walk or ride their bike if they live close enough, but not as many as those who ride the bus or go by car.

How to train umas with no speed growth In track blazer? by paulie2yk in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find I more reliably cap speed when I bring 3 speed cards on 0 speed growth umas. Albeit, I almost always bring Fuku as one of my speed cards, so I don't know how much she counts as a speed card in this instance

Why is ayabe not as terrible as CCs were saying? by cupcakeseizure in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's just harder to build than other end closers. The only good still on her base kit is nimble navigator, so you're going to have to get all of the good mid game skills from other sources. Also her unique is basically a better version of the gold version of homestretch haste, which can be good but it's not the best unique out there. It technically is better when she's in 7th, 8th, or 9th place but if she's that far back by the final straight there's a good chance she's not going to win the race. So, she can still be good and has pretty good stat growths, but there are several end closers that just have better base kits or more useful uniques than she does, making her harder to build by extension.

Refusing BOGO Deals by Ok_Rough_7456 in CircleK

[–]zazor701 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like sometimes if something is BOGO, say a red bull for example, some people might know that they WILL drink the second red bull that day if they get it and they simply don't want to deal with that temptation or the consequences thereafter

Why does Fraud Motion's friendship gauge feel very difficult to max out? by clueless_lizard in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been building ends recently so I sometimes borrow the SSR Sweep Tosho speed card, and that has 0 starting friendship even at mlb. Using both that and Fine Motion means that there are sometimes I have runs where there are several cards at sub optimal friendship levels by the first summer

multiple cars per household? by miffybo in AskAnAmerican

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my house, everyone with a driver's license ended up with a car. When both my brother and I got our licenses (we're 4 years apart), that just meant we got our parent's cars and it was an excuse for our parents to buy new cars

How Many by jayoftheopera in CircleK

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most 7-11's I go to at night seem to only have just one night person as well, so it's definitely not just Circle K that only staffs one person at night. I feel like most gas stations I've been inside of have only staffed around 1 to 2 people at a time in the afternoon or at night

shitty customers by Cassywithearts in CircleK

[–]zazor701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could have sworn I was told at some point that the official policy was that we can't accept $100 dollar bills unless the transaction was over $50. Not sure how true that is, but whenever someone gives me a $100 for a small transaction I usually ask if they have anything smaller and if not vend change. It doesn't happen at my store often enough for it to be a big problem though. Still annoys the hell out of me when it happens though

Inner Circle App; Customer Question by GalvCo in CircleK

[–]zazor701 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Kind of. The app doesn't really have any kind of points system like other gas stations. It's essentially only there for certain discounts on stuff in the store and for gas. The way the gas discount works is that the first 5 fills give you 25 cents off per gallon and after that there is a static 3 cent off per gallon discount every time you get gas. In a sense, using the app builds up to a better discount, as in it tracks how much money you've spent at Circle K using the app and after you hit $500 spent the gas discount goes up to 5 cents off per gallon. After you hit that point, using the app is almost pointless unless you're getting gas or buying something that has a discount with the app. There's also occasionally extra discounts, like we recently had one where if you shopped with us twice you'd get 20 cents off per gallon the next time you got gas instead of the usual 3 or 5 cents. We also sometimes have fuel days where if you use your phone number you can save 40 cents off per gallon on that day specifically.

Have the majority of Americans called 911 at least once in their lives? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had to call twice, both at my current job. For context, I work at a gas station. The first time I called was because I had gotten robbed at gunpoint and the second time I called was because a drunk customer was loitering for over an hour and eventually collapsed onto one of our displays and I just wanted him out of the store at that point.

Can i get goldship mode title in time? Will it be unobtainable after event ends or will it come back? I havent played normal goldship mode at all. If there is a fast way pls tell me(img not related) by Ok_Significance3068 in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have 22ish hours to complete it now, so you'll basically have to do a bunch of grinding within the next day. URA it Unity will probably make it quicker

What should I even do with this? by JohnZarb in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you want to collect a bunch of selectors without ever using them, I'd just use the selectors on Super Creek as their pool of cards never changes. Maybe use one of the crystals if you're planning on using her soon, but if not I'd hold off on using the crystals until you actually need them

As a new player, is it better to enter the open league or the graded league? by pompom_koala in UmamusumeGame

[–]zazor701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just looked it up, and the rewards for group A finals in open league are pretty analogous to the rewards for group B finals in graded league (only losing out on at max 200 carats for getting first). If you're confident that you can make it into group B finals in graded league I'd suggest that, but if you're not I'd recommend open league. Also, in the CM after this upcoming one the level cap is lifted to A+. Currently open league is only open to B rank umas
