If it’s an offer day, all you need is an iPhone, Android, or Fire Phone and the latest version of the free Amazon app. Just tap the main menu on the Amazon app, tap “Programs and Features,” then choose “Treasure Truck.” When you’re ready to buy, simply tap “I want this,” choose your pickup location, and come pick up your treasure!

1. Pushing Me Away
2. What I've Done
3. The Catalyst (full version only with Fallout intro)
4. New Divide
5. Krwlng
Next 5 (in some order): In the End, Somewhere I Belong, Breaking the Habit, Numb, Bleed it Out

Probably an unexpected top pick, but I've always loved PMA.

Not sure I can rank the rest, but that's always been a favorite.

Hey here's an FF12 question, I'm starting to see Quickenings on the license boards but a message pops up saying a character can only learn three quickenings from those available on the board. Does this mean I should old off learning any quickenings until I have them all available to get and pick the ones that are best for the character?


No, each character has 3 specific quickenings unique to them. Learn them as soon as you want.

Is this Zodiac Age? Because if so then from what I've read there are four per class board, with different abilities behind them so you have to pick which one you want least. No idea how that interacts with the second class thing either.

KH 0.2 Kairi coming to worldwide KHUX tonight, with a mercy rule (guaranteed within five pulls). Makes me wish I had money for jewels.

Just gone mine! Took the full five pulls, and all but three of the other medals I got were shit (although I did complete my Aqua collection with the one version of her I was missing), but I can't resist another Kairi.

Slightly miffed that Strength boosts appear to be capped though- I should be at +9 after the buffing phase of my turn, but only end up at +7. I mean, it's still an improvement, and whacks a second level of debuffs on the enemy, but it's not the humongous boost I was hoping for. OTOH, I do now have an all-girl Divine Rose (Illustrated KH2 Kairi, 0.2 Kairi, Illustrated Kairi, Illustrated Aqua, Larxene).

The +7 is actually a recent upgrade. I think it came with the changeover from Unchained X to Union X. Before that buffs/debuffs were limited to +/- 3.

Weird anecdote: I used to play a demo of Earthworm Jim on PC that didn't have the music, so being really into LP at the time like I was I'd blare Hybrid Theory under it. The two have been permanently linked in my mind ever since.

On a more serious note, I was one of those teens with depression who didn't understand what it was I was dealing with, but I knew Hybrid Theory and Meteora helped me deal with it in ways I didn't wholly appreciate at the time. This one hurts.

I'll take that over a toddler sitting in one of those activity baby chair things and shitting up all their back somehow. I don't know how it is even physically possible to shit up your back while standing, but it is when you're a toddler apparently. The horror days of that are thankfully over.

My wife loves to tell the story of how she once laid our son to sleep in a pack-and-play, and when she went to get him up he'd managed to remove his diaper, spreading shit everywhere and also eating some of it.

I do not miss diapers at all.

To be fair Arya is the one character GRRM says he kind of cheats with because he promised somebody he wouldn't kill her off.

And Jon... and Dany... and Sansa.... and Littlefinger... etc

This reminds me that in the letter Martin wrote describing his planned plot way back when the series was a trilogy, he had a list of characters who would survive into the final book, and it pretty well matches who I'd expect at this point: Jon, Dany, Tyrion, Arya, and Bran. While a great many things have changed since then - hopefully the Jon/Arya romance is one of them - I suspect that list has remained pretty much the same and all of them still have plot armor for a little while longer.

if you don't like gambits don't use them



I'll have to see about these gambits, i dont remember anything about the system.

If you were only a couple hours in you probably didn't have many options yet, but you can essentially pre-program your button presses based on different scenarios. So if, for example, you would normally cast Cura when someone's health reached a certain point, here you can tell your healer "When someone's health reaches this point, stop what you're doing and cast Cura."

You can also opt to not use them at all and individually select every command if you prefer.

The following team should easily master Ultimates, and can probably handle U++.

- Ramza with Breakdown, Full Break. Use Shout as your main SB. He should have Mako Might / Dr. Mog
- Vaan with his BSB is great. He probably wants Lifesiphon and whatever.
- TGCid with OSB is a top tier character. Lifesiphon is all that matters
- Eiko with BSB should probably be your healer. She wants Protectga or Shellga and Curaja
- Maybe Celes as your last one. She can carry the other Pro/Shellga if you 4* dive her.

4* dive?
