How I feel relaying information to our R&D team for requested new features right now...

Yeah, I can't even kill an Afro Orc anymore. heh I'm gonna let this run overnight and see where it "evens out" on arena level, hopefully by morning. Then probably rebirth to cash in the 2400 or so credits I'll have. (Currently 22018 and falling...)

He was a solid quarter century younger than me....

But I'll admit I like the new ricochet direction changing factor for fireballs...

Wow, so @pwe , exactly how many nerfs did you tuck into .57? ;) I was on arena 22080 and the "bullet time bug" kicked in and everything went to glacial speed, I had been clearing arena levels on average in around 15 seconds each. I was on v 0.55 at that point. So I refresh and get .57, with...

"fucking" does not rustle my jimmies... Ergo it's not one of the two words. ;)

It's happening every round for me now. By the time I get down to 2-3 mobs left I'm losing skulls, and I pretty much never finish a round with any left now. Notable patterns : They only vanish when attached to an enemy, free floaters still bounce around until they attach something. Has gotten...

Speaking of Ryobi stuff..... I've already resuscitated one of my pile of dead batteries with this article... https://badar.tech/2025/08/24/ryobi-battery-repair-guide/

OK. Odd thing I have now seen happen a few times today as he blasts his way through arenas on the baby screen... I'll be blasting something with two of three skulls on it too, and on the other end of the arena I'll have an Afro Orc with one skull on them. Then suddenly the one skull on the orc...

Nice update this morning. Daggers suddenly relevant again, which subsequently turns necro damage into a Trouble-seeking buzzsaw...

Yeah, there are even "semi-pro" leagues for this stuff now. I know this because this team in Dallas sponsors one of the podcast/streams I watch from time to time (CirqueDuSirois.com - All Episodes) and there's definitely a high performing Asian on the team...

I don't understand all this alarm talk.... I've found now that I'm ancient my body doesn't even want to let me sleep past 6:45am if I want to, all the while @Mrs. Haus can blissfully slumber until a luxurious 8:30 or 9. I've set alarms, but I don't remember the last time I wasn't awake before...

Ping pong takes considerably more hand eye coordinate and dexterity than pickleball, as a ping pong ball moves considerably faster relative to the size of the court. Pickleball is , as mentioned, essentially scaled back Tennis for people not athletic enough for Tennis, and takes up less space...

The green and purple power armor for Luthor has been a recurring thing in several iterations of the character. Even on the old SuperFriends Saturday morning cartoon he rolled a purple and green outfit while running the Legion of Doom, which was odd since the joker does the same color scheme...

Another random idea for a new tier past Voidgazer... "Time Management" - each rank in time management adds <some_amount_of_time> seconds to the arena clock. (Thinking .25 - .5 seconds per rank)

A new thing past Voidgazer called "running shoes".

There is that I'm obviously in the "autist" category of things with this stuff. heh

OK, since you want ideas... Instead of Voidgazer just giving you the skin, have it also grant you the ability of : "Call on tentacles from the void to lock your current target into place." or "Summon tentacles at the corners of the arena which trap enemies that touch them" This assists with...

This was just an idea that sprouted as when you hit the "end game" of Earl the parabolic nature of cost increases means you functionally hit a serious wall at one point, but the arena difficulty (yes, I know I'm the only one who apparently notices) keep climbing. Current testing status : Next...

My random suggestion of the day for the box... Instead of bountiful just being "get double from chests", have it be "Each rank in bountiful increases chest rewards by 4/5%"

Honestly, I agree, and used the reaction because I believe that's how big your prostate currently is....

Yeah, I think my headcanon for him was that he's an aspiring arena wizard who loves killing but is crap at managing his money, which is where you as the player come in. ;)

Honestly, I think the arena part might have been something I actually concocted in my mental ramblings about Earl.....

Not really, just that of the small "do it without pharmaceuticals" things I can do working a banana or two in per week rather than another pill on the list seemed more agreeable to me.

Well, from my observation : Takes a smaller court and involves less movement than tennis. Can be easily picked up and played by about anybody Can be easily played in environments that serve alcohol (there are literally Picklebar bars around Dallas, IIRC) Is a good socializing game, as it's...

Ah, now we're getting into the core "old guys being old" talk. I had a problem with charlie horses, as mentioned working a banana in every other day (my dr wanted to put me on a potassium supplement, but screw that), and switching to a vitamin with more magnesium seemed to help a lot, I very...

I'm leaning towards 1, number3 comes in second.

And now I have a picture of the asshole of the week... 25mm x 26mm Also. upon further review of yesterday's MRI and the previous imaging I see something which pisses me off. First pisses me off with myself for not noticing before, but FAR MORE pisses me off at the radiologist and urologists...

Well.. wide bore 3T MRI machine (not OpenMRI) and no problems at all getting it done. Of course , it could have been due to my new best friend Alprazolam.

Ah, since there was talk about making arena do something more (since the gold from Arena is inconsequential once you move up the ladder much at all) here's a thought... Each arena win gets you .25%-.50% progress towards you next diamond credit. Each lost subtracts that amount. That means if...

This is for me as well. I have access to the "rebirthed 8 times" skin, but I think I've also only rebirthed 3 times.

OK, my obsessive number brain note of the day... When I was around 6-6.5 Qi/sec in passive income I noticed I was getting around .5% Credit progress per tick. I am now at 7.66Qi/sec and getting less? (around %.38 progress per tick). Intended behavior? I mention this because I guess I'm in...

I was at an Estate Sale on Friday (another way to know I'm getting old...) and it was for a guy who was a photographer who passed away. They had these "fill this bag for $5" bags in the garage. So I grabbed a bag and started filling it with anything I could melt for my metalcasting (brass...

My problem is with this being abdominal/kidney I can't be asleep. I have to intermittently hold my breath during the process and it's about 45 minutes total with and without contrast.

When you go fullscreen on a wide format monitor things can get a little.... odd...

Yeah, it's got a pull rope backup. It also has a port on the front where you can plug it into a wall wart to keep the battery trickle charged. I have a VERY basic transfer switch set up. The top right two breakers in my panel are to the twist lock plug on the outside of the house. So the...
