    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Locnar basically wants DBG to create a P99 type server that will somehow get the niche p99 people to pay a sub and ditch their p99 characters because it's stamped as official. Which he thinks will be a viable enough population that they'd do it over the normal type TLPs.

    91st Academy Awards - Hoping to be the most woke Academy Awards ever!

    Oh for some reason I thought Rapsody had won. So I'm dumb. I've only seen a few of the movies in the best picture category and none of them stands out particularly, except that Rhapsody was bad.

    91st Academy Awards - Hoping to be the most woke Academy Awards ever!

    This is going to be one of those things that a few years from now people are going to look back and sentiment is going to be very different. It's a lot like Shakespeare in Love over Saving Private Ryan or Forrest Gump over Shawshank/Pulp Fiction.

    Movie isn't even good. Or technically proficient or anything.

    They're not going to make a tlp for a tiny, tiny portion of people that care about this shit. And the people that care about some of this tedium shit hate other parts of the tedium shit and people won't ever agree.

    Everquest Mangler Server - DOING IT ALL AGAIN, AGAIN!

    plus that shitty dog model for AoCs.

    Food for thought!

    This thread is really going places. Also, first time ever is a tranny in the top 8 of the Cleveland MTG pro tour.

    MTG: Arena

    Scry N would give you more opportunity to keep some cards on top instead of the bottom, London mulligan gives you much higher control over your actual opening hand. While Scry N would be better in some instances London Mulligan will be better in a much higher percentage of hands.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    But they released the space horses so they were free until they got wrangled back up so it was all worth it.

    Still think Scry N is a better middle ground. Also 3 mono blue tempo decks in top 8 of Cleveland.

    Everquest Mangler Server - DOING IT ALL AGAIN, AGAIN!

    That's just not how TLP works. In the early expansions stuff will die really fast. With XP the way it is on Selo, I think you'll be surprised how fast VT gets cleared.

    Altered Carbon

    I'll probably end up watching it. Season 1 started out pretty good until they got to the sister heavy shit and went downhill real fast.

    The Umbrella Academy

    Netflix took a lot of losses when they put a bunch of money into original content. Even those Stand Up comedy specials aren't super cheap. But it helps build up a brand and they have a shitload of subs now.

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    They had to change how pickzones worked due to the amount of server resources that they took up. This isn't likely to ever happen,

    almost double can be anywhere from 1.5 to 1.99999 times rf speed. there's a huge gap between those.

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    The grind to 60 is going to be like a day or something. And yes they rebranded it as fast progression and turned Mangler into Phinny 3.0 with better xp.

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    If they ever do a freeloot TLP it will be one of the main selling points that they advertise it as. Not some random throw in.

    Also pretty sure the xp death penalty thing on Mangler is just no extra penalty, not literally no xp loss.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Soloing in general is pretty bad on TLP due to group bonuses really making grouping much better. If you just mean soloing some relatively easy camps in the early expansions while playing once a week you'll probably want something that's relatively low on gear requirements so some kind of caster...

    That new mulligan would be pretty wild actually playing dredge in vintage. Or almost any vintage deck really. Would be less stupid if it was scry N times or something instead.

    Answer the question above you, no matter what it is

    At least a month right?!?!?! Why do up quarks have twice the relative charge of a down quark?

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    I actually think LFR/Dungeon finder are fine. They allow wow to also be a tourist game that people can play for a couple weeks every content patch to see the content. But WoW also has normal/heroic/mythic raids as well. Mythic raiding in WoW is orders of magnitude harder than anything on a...

    It's DoDH for necro, SoD for sk, and is a 2nd rank that makes it permanent duration later.

    Why does nobody else seem to care about the very serious Germany nerf in later editions of Axis and Allies.

    This is certainly possible. But I have some hope since we're talking about a director that got a studio to bankroll a 150 million dollar arthouse noir movie.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Axis and Allies was very different in the early versions when the Brits only had 1 infantry unit in Africa. Germany could quickly shitstomp Africa and build up large stockpiles of resources. Later versions fixed it.

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    I mean you can't request a lot of progression missions without 3 characters in a group so you'd need at least 1 more player since you can't have 2 mercs. SK with healer merc would probably be stronger later on.

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    A lot of that stuff is baked into the game at this point. You won't get old Freeport etc. P99 is closer to the original EQ than TLP but it's not in classic and it's been around awhile to mature so not sure what it's like to start fresh there since I've never actually played there.

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    Once the nostalgia shine wears off after a short stint on the TLP servers most people come to realize Trilogy and PoP are actually very shallow. GoD and Luclin are much better TLP experiences than the other expansions. There's just way more to do and a larger variety of raids etc. GoD is...

    The Bard's Tale 4

    Game was good, but honestly I was probably more excited by the remasters of the old games.
