I would not dress my dog up as a taco because then I would eat him.

And so far, yes, this one seems good but i'm just starting. It kinda....almost looks like it continues right from T2 and ignores the other ones. I'm liking it so far.

Yeah, getting a filter is key.

Using a filter + 2 premium stash tabs = all you ever need (But I spend $20 on tabs even in beta). I have like 30 tabs but still only 2 premium. I don't need (nor use) that many tabs mind you. I just wanted to support the game and I don't give a crap about cosmetic stuff.

I have the currency tab, the card tab etc as well, just makes things a bit easier to sort. Certainly isn't needed though.

Also, the game is VERY different if you actually use the trade sites (in good and bad ways). The good is you can easily play through even end game stuff pretty fast, the bad, it detracts from the joy of finding stuff alot.

I don't ever sell my stuff really (since I just usually play in league and get bored after a month or so every time). All the stuff I get from chaos gems basically, which I quickly accumulate by selling 1 of each rare later on (unidentified). I pretty much just collect the rings/amulets as everything else drops like crazy (so I have like 4 of each other piece kicking it in a tab waiting for the rings/amulets. I generally get at least 2-4 worth each map run (blowing an Alch on the map usually).

It takes almost no time to get to the point in the game where you can use that recipe, and bam, you can pretty much buy whatever you need at that point. That opens up any builds you wanna play (not that many need anything special even for early mapping).

Main prob is new builds aside, it's the same game over and over, same mapping at the end etc, and the minor differences per league are not enough. I'm mostly waiting for the next expansion/poe 2.0 whatever you wanna call it, to play again.

Yeah the deals seemed pretty crappy over all, but also, hidden, even the semi decent ones, none were on the main page etc.

Like a power charging unit (can charge a laptop 3-4 times), was normally $150 but on sale for a bit over $100, but not listed anywhere, the next size up was normally $300 but on sale for $200 (first one only handles stuff 100 watts or lower, second 200).

Turns out neither would work for running my ps4 pro though as it is 340 or so watts....and the ones that can handle it are way too much (was contemplating doing a trip).

But yeah all the deals they actually listed were generally 30% off or less.

without the apocrypha, you're forced to take the text at face value. don't get me started on the Council of Nicea...imagine Taking say, the entire Dragonlance series, and just ripping out pages and entire chapters of already established canon and saying this is what the authors intended...and that series was written by 2 people, not dozens. We get 4 PoV books with very minor differences concerning Jesus, but any other character in the OT just gets the one.

the entire "bible" as we know it is a mess, cobbled together around the sensibilities of a very tiny slice of time despite it asserting itself as a definitive work for all time afterwards, and there being dozens of contradictory and contemporary texts and alternate drafts to just about any book of the bible.

Just don't ditch the Tas parts, or ...the Raistlin parts either, I can handle pretty much everything else (ok, leave in the Fizban parts too, but most of those involve Tas anyway).

Well blah there are to many other methods now with videos, people feel the coin when it lands and then they know if it's heads or tails and control it by either (flipping it) onto the back of their other hand or not, people flip the coins so it wobbles (with the tail side up still the whole time) etc.

But look, it's not hard to do it yourself, at least with a slower flip, as you practice you can do it with a much faster flip that nobody will think you could control, but at first, just control how high you throw it and how many times it flips (just have it flip like 4 times), and do that over and over till you can control it every time like that, then flip it 8 times etc, until you get down a full fast flip (which at that point you can actually keep track of the side by the time it's in the air). That lets you control the flip to be heads or tails WHILE it's in the air (letting someone else call it).

It's not hard, just a bit of practice and anyone can do it. Waaaay easier than juggling for instance.

You can control a good coin flip with 30-50 flips before landing? I can see a sissy flip with 2-4 flips being controlled but not a actual good flip.

I could, and even with my eyesight, i'm pretty sure I could again. It's not really watching the coin, you master flipping it at a certain speed and that allows you to catch it at the right time for heads or tails depending on what you want, you can even do it with it being called mid flip.

I pretty much could control a flip (no matter how long/high I flipped it, 100% of the time in my 20's or so. I never used it on anything other than showing off I could do it though. Basically you just need to master the "spin" you put on the coin when you flip it, and then you basically can count in your head automatically to determine if it's heads or tails when you catch it.

I might even try it tomorrow (though inside I won't really have that much height), and take a video to show it if you want, though there may be videos online from others at this point. Heck I'll look right now.

Yep, although I believed that before seeing the video (I think you linked me to the video last time we discussed it in fact). I have pretty much always believed (after I was a kid) that god split himself up into countless individuals in order to fight boredom, blocking himself off from the experiences of each, so as to make them new each time.

To me, it makes the most sense, and is a...for me, viable explanation as to how you could have a god that wasn't a sadistic bastard who allowed people like hitler etc to be born (since he could easily determine what was going to happen (ti's all math but thats another subject), he could easily ensure hitler was stillborn/aborted etc so none of that suffering happened.

You don't have to play league, standard does not reset and usually gets whatever was in the league after it's over.
If you use poe trade etc, you can buy whatever you need to finish end game with just about any semi decent build, just with normal currency that drops along the way.

You don't need ANY extra stash tabs honestly, although having 2 premium ones will help you sell stuff later on (but only expensive stuff you are not using, it's honestly not worth it to sell anything worth less than that because you can get currency so fast just by doing runs/maps.

I usually start fresh for a new league and I have a new high level char up and running with good eq in end game maps within 5-6 days. I don't play that much, i'm certainly not an expert, I often don't even do the last Lab run even.

Main problem for me is it gets repetative even with new stuff they add, and I have a hard time playing standard because it's so easy to get stuff (tons of currency from playing many leagues), so I can totally outfit any build I want quickly.

AT least starting fresh with a league I have to build up currency a bit, and there is usually a new mechanic to try out as well.

They are making PoE2 sometime soon I think (just basically a further expansion) but I think it's going to have new classes etc. Looking forward to that. Have not played this league at all (distracted by other stuff).

I may end up playing it again as they have a new expansion coming out in November, but they are just adding another race (and new areas) so no new classes to play with, and I have played all the classes multiple times through the game, so it's hard to do again *sigh*.

Try playing without ever using a shield, and never summon anything. It's how I played all of em and I had the most fun that way. Magic or pyro can usually make things much easier as well, get your vitality/health up asap, and make sure you can fast roll (it's based on weight percentage). Medium roll I think was under 75% though (weight capacity) and is still quite good, you just wanna make sure you gon't go over that to a slow roll as it blows.

Sadly, and this holds true for like almost all souls like games, hitting enemies from behind and rolling behind them when they attack is pretty much the best tactic for well, almost every freaking fight lol.

Also, this is true more and more as you go further in the series, you can basically rush to a boss fight from a previous bonefire without fighting anything, this lets you fight the boss over and over again (which can be hard to do solo with no shield usage in some cases).

They're teenagers in that. Keep them on the older side of the spectrum, and you're not too far off stuff like the Hunger Games or Maze Runner, so I feel like you could get away with the murdering.

I don't think people would kick-back hard unless they made the kids really young, and really woobie-ish.

Though it feels like they'd have to do a better job of establishing just WHY this is a thing at all. The concept is kind of easier to process when you can explicitly spell out "this is why this society would sanction this sort of behavior in the first place".

I need to re-read it, but I think they touched on WHY it was happening a bit in the book, basically to get the dissadents out of the system early (and later on they were sent to a war or something like Garrety's dad...because he was talking out against the government).

Also think they basically hinted at the fact most of the kids actually kinda wanted to die, and that is what they were really "shooting for" over all. It's been a bit since I re-read it, but there was a bunch of that kinda in the background or something I remember.

Just really enjoy reading it, but now that I can't read books or even my kindle it's been awhile since I read it last. I can/could transfer it to my computer though and read it on here, I probably will do that sometime soon.

Uh, what? Cujo, Christine, and Pet Sematary were extremely popular novels that became pretty fucking huge films to this day. And, for Christine and Pet Sematary (probably also the others, but I haven't those), the problems with those novels are things emblematic of King's work as a whole -- things that haven't improved (and may have even gotten worse) as the years went on.

Second, and more importantly, most of King's really great adaptations came from that earlier era. You don't exactly hear a lot of people talking about how the new Carrie is so much better than the first one -- quite the opposite. As for forgettability, in 20 years do you honestly think anybody is going to be talking about Gerald's Game?

I was more specifically addressing your remarks concerning work rates, not quality or cultural impact. Granted, publication isn't necessarily the best metric for work rates anyway, since somebody like SK is likely to get all of his stuff published whereas a lot of other authors will have a few other novels that they haven't managed to sell.

It's worth mentioning that SK supposedly writes about 2,000 words or 6 pages a day which hardly puts him in a league of his own.

Other than the Long Walk, I can't really think of anything that can't be adapted to either tv or a film.

I thought they were doing it as a series?



I enjoyed Phantoms, which is what got me interested in his work. However, a lot of the things he's had adapted -- such as Odd Thomas -- probably sucked in their original form. Even as a YA novel, Odd Thomas seems kinda fucking lousy.

I watched Odd thomas the movie before reading the book (which I did read as well, but alot of the umph was misssing because...well, I watched the movie first). I will say the later books didn't really work for me, and honestly the experience watching the movie, was gut wrenching, I was freaking bawling in fact. So the movie freaking rocked.

I don't know if the book rocked if you read it first....but it wasn't as good reading it after watching it...that was for sure.

I figured out the ending to Sixth Sense before the end of the movie when I watched it, so Odd Thomas just basically took me totally by surprise, it was actually pretty awesome. Other than that, never been a big fan of Koontz personally.

How did I miss this thread, this is totally in my wheel house, and not many people realize The Running Man was a stephen king adaptation (dude was black and it was waay diff).

Also, they NEED to make a TV adaptation of The Long Walk, it's my favorite short story actually, and they could totally do it, if they do it animated maybe (I think blowing kids brains out wouldn't go over well otherwise).

I don't/didn't always like his work (especially after the hit and run episode in real life, he seemed to just be angry after that), but he has written some seriously great pieces of work. I also love his music in many of his movies.

There are other books they really should have adapted. The Talisman is FINALLY being made into a movie (not sure when it's releasing). Since it's mostly fantasy (even if in modern day) it's very different than most of his books (other than maybe The Dark Tower to some degree). I do think it should probably have been a mini-series not a movie though.

For the most part though, his books were quite often made into movies/mini-series etc, often people not even realizing they were based on a steven king novel (Stand by me for instance, which is very similar (but not as ..well....deadly) based off The Body). The raft was made into a film as well if I remember right (not sure if Rage ever was) but Thinner was, so I think pretty much every Backman book except maybe the rage was eventually adapted.

Dude is or certainly at least was, a freaking genius at writing. I have not been feeling his latest books for awhile (again pretty much since the accident/hit and run), but in the old day? Back when you know there just wasn't as many actual options for horror/sci fi/fantasy? He was up there in the running for my favorite author and THE only one in my top 20 that wasn't a sci fi/fantasy writer only.

Honestly I was mostly Fantasy based (took forever for urban fantasy to actually become a thing), so the fact that I loved so many of his books that were based on present day and often didn't have magic etc in them, is amazing. He could really build a character/characters, and make a story interesting even if most of it was just them walking down a road together.

Honestly, if gun to my head, I had to choose only 20 authors total to ever read books from again, he would probably be on the list.

Like I said I knew more once apon a time, but you can get a secured credit card to help you start building credit (anyone can get one). Basically your bank takes X amount of money from you and gives you a credit card with that limit, and that works just like a normal one, and builds credit over time. I highly recommend doing this when your young to start building credit.

Also a car loan is great for building credit and you can get one with almost no interest at all (get a used car With extremely low payments cause you pay most of it up front, and then pay more than the min every month). That will boost your credit score a ton.

Credit score IS important, it has tons of effects, it can make a difference on where you can rent, or the security deposit you have to put down and tons of other things. Having a good credit score is very useful, and having a bad credit score can make many things much harder.

There are i'm sure many things you can read/watch online about building credit at this point, so it really doesn't matter that I don't remember much anymore. Just look up ways to boost credit online and i'm sure they will cover all the best ways, but it really is worth it.

Also, if you have student loans, and you are not paying them off, get on an income based repayment plan (Especially if your not working or made less than 12k last year). Seriously this is the easiest way to destroy your credit, and so many people just ignore their student loans and then are amazed their credit score is horrid.

Tacobot 3000 "Saving the world from not having tacos."
Glowing Elephant "Stonehedge was a sex thing."

I really don't remember specifics anymore but in general I believe:

It's best to be using cards, have car loans, house loans etc that you are paying off more than the minimum each month. I do not think you actually need to have a balance left, but you don't want to pay off the FULL balance if I remember correctly as you get more points for paying off more than the min (but not the total balance).

So if you spend $100 on your card in a month and the min payment is $40, pay $80 of it off, leaving 20, then next month if you spend another $100, pay off $100 total (still leaving 20 on there), so your constantly paying more than the min, but not the total.

I believe that was the way to get your credit up as fast as possible (also it may have had to do with getting your TOTAL credit on a card up too, if they see a balance left over but that your making payments they may offer you a higher credit limit faster.

Sadly I don't remember the specifics but it's something like that.

Also, I've only played as a rogue and a ranger, but the ranger had an easier time with the first area for me. I also had the hunter's mark cantrip which may have helped.

Rogue and ranger are almost identicle for me, but rogue CAN use the brain thing to get extra damage, but 99.9% of the time that doesn't actually matter as you would have killed it anyway. IF I had played a melee rogue (not dex based/bow using) the dash ability at level 2 would have mattered more, but I didn't.

Cleric had sick guided bolt, which obliterated stuff at level 1 and 2 pretty much (3d6, 95% chance to hit everything I aimed it at). It also gives advantage to the next attack against that monster (if it survives).

AC on my cleric is pretty high, and he's ranged as well, so already doesn't get attacked much. Decent hp due to con, very high perception (proficient from wood elf + 16 (maxed at this point) wisdom. Good saves (high wis dex AND con).

I hear good things about warlock but so far i'm rocking the cleric for sure. Fighter was a let down in comparison. Ranger I gave up on, just didn't have anything special.

Wizard, honestly it seems like it sucks, everything and I mean everything will prioritize you and you will spend most encounters on the floor.

Yeah I'd focus on dex/con on a wizard tbh, though you can still hit a 16 int I think with one of the races (half elf for sure, or human.

I think with human you can hit 16 dex/16 con/14 int if you want, and since you hit level 2 really fast, that is about an extra 6 hp right off the bat for your wizard..which would help a bunch.

The 5% lesser chance for spells to actually hit (which is already freaking too low most of the time), isn't really that big of a deal. Main prob is you really want a race that gives you bow usage as well, since sadly with a 16 dex, a bow is better damage (with a higher chance to deal it) than most of the wizard spells (and def better than the cantrips).

A wood elf gets +2 dex which makes a 16 dex very cheap, lets you get 14 con and 14 int, with points left over for cha if you wanna up persuasion a bit.

But yeah, wizards just are not bringing much to the table, a cleric is better in every way, even if you cheat and scribe guided bolt into your wizard spell list (lol it's bugged right now, you can scribe ANY scroll into your spell list as a wizard). Sad when the best spell by far a wizard can cast is actually a cleric spell.

Guided bolt + 16 dex + race that lets the wizard use a longbow is probably the best way to play one right now...but ...at that point why wouldn't you just be a cleric?

I'll confess to something stupid I did when I was 17.

So when I turned 17 I joined the Air Force (had the best food), while joining they ask if you have ever committed any illegal acts. I confessed to having stolen some cheese for me and my brother when I was younger. Turns out if you actually confess anything they have to act on it, but it ended up not being a problem as I was a kid at the time of the incident.

Still was probably the stupidest thing I had ever done lol. So it's a confession of a confession!
