    Everquest Mysteries

    Correct me if I am wrong here but I seem to recall the Moss Covered Twig originally being a main hand item and not an off hand one. Which is why it was busted at 3 dmg 10 delay. His #1 as Kerafrym is stupid though.

    What did you just read?

    It's 9 volumes you can start wherever. Just look up Florentine Codex and you can choose whatever topic. Additionally I liked this one: This is the video that got me interested in it. There is a series of novels that draws heavily from the Florentine Codex called the Aztec that is also...

    What did you just read?

    Started reading some of the Florentine Codex now that I heard some of it in various youtube history lectures. Just reading about First Contact you kind of have to feel for Cortez. Cortez was quite cordial on the first meeting. Thought it was cool they brought some gifts and shit on the beach...

    XCOM Chimera Squad

    I just have no interest in playing X:Com: Five-O man. The streets are mean. But criminal aliens are meaner doesn't really have the same appeal of prevent global extermination of viva la resistance

    XCOM Chimera Squad

    Not getting a real Xcom vibe from this. No base or campaign management? No research trees? I have like a thousand hours between Xcom 1 2 and the expansions but IDK what this is exactly. XCOM: Police isn't being made for someone like me.

    Albatross? Can't have one shitty card as a safety valve against powerful highlander decks now can we!? Nerfing sac pact now is just dumb too. The only reason that card has seen play is because you introduced another class that has tons of demons in it's core set.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    For sure. I'll keep saying it but the most terrible legacy of WOW is the hard split of factions within these games. That shit needs to die and it needed to die as a MMO tenet 10 years ago.

    Hearthstone

    IDK, I would argue the only tempo loss you have is if you don't play something in the next two turns. So your tempo is only lost the turn you play it. While your opponent has to play shit they can use immediately or has a fat ass that won't get killed by the Antean or by any removal you use...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yeah that mask had a lot of utility too. Looking like a Dark Elf granted you ultravision. The supreme night vision of Everquest. On the other side of it Dark Elves were not Kill On Sight in some "good" locations like Freeport. So if you were a Troll or Ogre you would not only benefit from the...

    The only thing I really hate about Demon Hunter is all of their shit can do face damage. Forcing anything in a Demon Hunter meta to have healing or armor to survive. In addition to as much removal as you can handle because the DH will absolutely draw 2/3 of their deck before you draw half...

    I've been trying to put together a control warrior deck but so far it's just lost too many tools. There's a lot of card draw and board clear available to you but no value engine. I went into fatigue with a demon hunter and won but it took a long time. A lot less fun to play than Dr. Boom...

    The only cool thing this season is the hunt for the true AI. The Humanity Guide or whatever the fuck it's called. It's totally inscrutable and alien. But I am sure once Delores gets the master code she will just hack it instantly.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    This is compounded by the fact that a lot of the shit you would be working on has not integrated, and never will, the more modern features that have been jerry rigged into COBOL systems. Such as OOO principles and the use of libraries. So, "hey Dave we need a Datediff() for whatever" becomes a...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    My first job offer out of University finishing a CS program was to work at Raymond James Financial in Tampa, Florida. Where they would have trained me to be a COBOL developer. Now, I had only heard of COBOL from my Dad who learned some of it at university back in the 70s. Also from a few older...

    What did you just read?

    I finished this as I hadn't read it for quite some time. But I must say. The time jumps annoy me. I really hate unexplained time jumps. They are used so poorly. Almost to a fault.

    Big Druid is such a boring ass deck to play though. Did you draw Dragon's Breath and Overgrowth with the Sidequest? Proceed to win. Oh you didn't? Die.

    Evolve shaman is pretty fun. They put in some necessary speedbumps and setup required to make it work. But at the same time it is now real hit or miss. I really liked Dragon Hunter before the expansion came out. It's just okay now.

    Next they need to nerf the ability for the majority of its cards to hyper efficiently do face damage and snowball. Oh and remove at least one of their 3 primary card draw cards. These nerfs were fucking weak sauce anyway. Not a single of those nerfed cards is situational or not playable. Just...

    This popped up randomly for me. I'm not much of a Bjork fan but 16 year old Bjork in 1982 singing more typical pop-rock is interesting. Her shit was always too weird for me.

    How about that 5 Mana spell for two 1 cost 5 dmg fireballs. Get rid of the card draw, lifesteal and the ability for so much of their shit to go straight to face.

    Korean Gochujang Peanut Butter Sauce. This creates a nice spicy hearty sauce that is good for noodles and some stir fry. Do recommend. Almost like an easier dan dan noodles sauce or something. IDK 1/2 tablespoon but more than teaspoon of gochujang, preferably the spiciest one. teaspoon of...

    It's pretty fucked up you can't do anything to dormant minions. There needs to be a safety valve on them or some way to destroy them. Otherwise it's just a derp here's a 10/5 on turn 5 that will do 10 dmg to your face on turn 7 if you can't keep shit on the board while I am also killing you...

    Yeah I am done until they nerf some shit. Demon Hunter has crazy amounts of board clear and free face damage, card draw AND lifesteal. It's completely retarded. It's like all the worst aspects of rogue amplified by all the shit they nerfed over the years for being too strong.

    IMO genn baku weren't that bad but their existence meant that everyone was running odds or evens decks so it seriously limited design space.

    Considering seemingly every single demon hunter card is optimized at maintaining tempo and board clearing while also raping your face. Lol.

    Well that was bunk. 70 packs. Two legendaries. Magtheridon and the Paladin one. Then I got another paladin legendary from the random Descent of Dragons pack in that quest.
