Here's the thing, a lot of us don't give a fuck if it's a CCG and what other CCGs have historically cost. It's a game, we like it, we want to play more, but it's frustrating to see so much content stuck behind what is essentially randomized DLC on steroids. $300 is a lot when I usually pay...

"Play all the time" might be relative here. Kinda like "melts faces", essentially useless.

A restaurant named that should have at least some BBQ on the menu as an homage to its namesake. No, "BBQ" octopus doesn't count. I'm doubting you could truly BBQ an octopus just like you can't a chicken.

Last I checked, google's reader doesn't have a friendly nighttime mode. I use Aldiko specifically for that reason.

It's understandable if you define grind as something repeated, even if fun, for a lengthy period to achieve a goal(get enough cards to do constructed). You're not playing arena to play arena, you're doing it to get cards. Thus a fun activity can become a grind. That's what my initial post...

Did you miss the part where I said I might spend money if I felt it was worth it? I think it's faulty to compare prices to existing CCGs. You're already on your computer, the ability to do something else, cheaper, is literally just an alt-tab away. It's the same problem movies and tv have...

Agreed. I have some misgivings with how much you need to spend to come even close to a somewhat complete set is much more than what someone typically spends on a game. I'd be very curious if someone at Blizzard did an analysis of cheaper packs or more/better cards per pack(thus getting...

Yeah, I'm not sure what they were thinking there. I'm not going to spend money on this game, and I'm especially not going to spend money to craft or chance at the still useful cards from expert.

Oh, of course arena still has its own problems. Personally, I prefer those problems(bad drafts) to the ever mounting pile of cards that I don't have. I'm still missing probably the majority of blues from expert packs, let alone purples and oranges. How is constructed supposed to be fun...

Anyone else been playing arena exclusively, and only when you have dailies? I've been having much more fun with this game since I switched to that type of play. It's a lot slower, obviously, so it likely won't appeal to probably everyone here, but just thought I'd recommend it. A shitty...

I have two problems with sushi and seafood in general. The first one probably extends to some people of this thread: it's not cheap to try it yourself. Unless you live in certain areas where seafood is plentiful and cheap, it can be expensive to try even a simple roasted fish dish. The best...

Is there any usage for cheese curds besides poutine?

I thought that stuff was "wagyu" and "kobe" beef. Did Japan finally lift the export ban on the real stuff?

The women might also have to pay more into short term disability. And, yes, it's by state. My wife's company paid out 80% for 6 weeks. New York state said fuck that, you get up to 50% depending on your qualifications(you're not getting 50%). Thanks?

In anticipation, like ghost legos? Or she's playing with them? You know the kid can't have regular legs for at least a few years?

Just get some uppers. Or some meth. No sugar intake or nasty taste. I can't say I've ever experienced the caffeine withdrawal problems. I mean, I get headaches maybe once every 5 years, so that might be it. But if I don't have my caffeine in the morning, I just yawn more, so whatever.

My kid is a little over 1 and I do much more bonding with him now than when he was born. How can you bond with something that literally just eats, shits, and sleeps? Use the vacation time to help out mom, the hormones post birth are going to make her weird, or use it if it's going to go poof...

If you're drinking the diet soda with food, you're probably not getting a spike. IIRC, it's the sweetness on the tongue that causes the body to release insulin to digest the sugars its not actually getting. But they will be in the food, so not really a big deal. Diet soda by itself might be...

The granularity on the loan market doesn't allow for you to pick and choose which loans to get to a fine enough degree. I can afford a 30 year loan AND I can afford extra payments on it. I can't afford the next step up, 15 years. If you think 10 year loans is the requirement for home...

I'm not sure that's the right way to compare them. 30 year and 10 year loans are structured completely different, much more of the initial payment goes toward principle and you have different rates. And I don't think a 10 year loan is worth discussing, the large majority of home owners cannot...

I'm curious, how would you do that comparison? X extra dollars in payments made yearly, either into the stock market at Y interest or into the loan at Z interest. When the early payments scenario pays off the loan early, put X into the stock market until the other scenario pays off the loan...

Please explain the math on that one, assuming longterm rate of return is greater than the interest rate of the loan.

You must have been overeating by a lot. A bedtime "snack" of ice cream would definitely imply that. I'm assuming you had that on top of dessert?

Would you be willing to bet that the standard deviation of most statistics has increased over the last decade, even after conference play settles in? Well, it doesn't matter what you'd bet because it seems no one computes that statistic. I wonder if someone has an open database I could pull...

The things you listed for your friends' retirement activities are all new this generation(and partly last). I don't think the idea of people wanting to quit doing something that's frustrating is new, that's an OLD idea. It's just that quitting bitches without giving up pussy is now feasible...

Discuss college basketball all you want. Trying to determine who's better is futile, especially at this point in the season. Just accept that the level play has devolved so much that reliability has gone out the window. It's varying degrees of a crap shoot each time a team plays.

I couldn't even get that far, the article is atrociously written. A lot of claims are made without much backup. I'm not sure I'd use Japan as proof of this. Their culture is very different from Western cultures and there are some parallels that you just can't make.

Interesting as hyperbolic satire? I mean, let's ignore you linked breitbart.com. The author is the same guy that scribbled this pos: Here's What 'Net Neutrality' Is... and What to Think About It

To be fair, I'd legit bitch about a heavy rain after a drought. Them mudslides and flash floods, yo. Fuck "winter storm damon"(when did we start naming blizzards?) and fuck snow shoveling. Just about ready to buy a snow blower.

You really shouldn't use SU as a comparison for anything at this point. Or any college team, for that matter. Bunch of high school kids playing inconsistently all season long. Just give up on trying to determine who's better by the "who beat who" method. Wait for the end of the tournament...

#1 problem in relationships, by far, is one person making demands/decisions/whatever without considering the other person. It happens all the time over the smallest of things and Onoes' story was a classic example of it(for both parties). I've come to accept that it will continue happening...

You get a stick that casts locust swarm continuously.

Ah, so that deck doesn't play to the face like the previous undertaker did? Wonder if a feign death or 2 couldn't be shoehorned in there with all those rattles. Or a Baron Rivendare.

How does the deck do when you don't get an Undertaker? It seems to rely even more on Undertaker than before and has less "to the face".

Only if he pulls out.

I think it still has an ICD. I have no idea what it is, but a lot of people on the bnet forums toss around 1/APS as the standard ICD. It makes sense from balancing procs in an AE perspective, so that must mean it's wrong.

You could be right about the mana curve. Is there some write up about why the 3 spot is important in the curve? I think knowing more about the curve, not just what is a good curve, is the next step in improving my play.

Are you putting it in the right hole?

Mech type would be the only difference. However, Chillwind Yeti vs Ogre Magi, +1 spell damage seems to be only worth 1 health? And since there's a 3 mana 3/4 neutral mech, soot spewer should probably be a common neutral.

Maybe if you pounded it out to maximize browning. Maybe. You probably still need a sauce/spice rub/marinate if we're taking just the breast.
