| Topic | FFXIV Topic 3 - I Believe ARR Can Fly |
| ZaziGuado 08/30/20 1:39:53 PM #400 | I was one of those newbies so hopefully I didn't disgruntle anyway too greatly. I've never used Party Finder so I'm not really sure how it works. I imagine you highlight certain classes you want to take in or something like that. THere's probably a form of pre-planning involved that you don't get with Duty Finder. I've generally shied away from the optional dungeons. This is my first traditional MMO that I've played with some regularity and I never have much of an idea of what I'm doing and I hate to be a burden on others. I guess I'll wait on the Extreme stuff until I've upped my item level significantly. --- snowpork azuarc is OP. |
| Topic | FFXIV Topic 3 - I Believe ARR Can Fly |
| ZaziGuado 08/30/20 11:05:10 AM #397 | So I've slowly been dipping my toes back into FFXIV recently. I'm in the beginning stages of Heavensward. The music in Foundation is pretty awesome. I tried doing The Striking Tree (Extreme) yesterday. It didn't go well at all. We got to adds a few times but overall we got wiped pretty consistently. This was my first Extreme one of those. Are they all super difficult to figure out like that one? --- snowpork azuarc is OP. |

I cannot vouch for how successful this will be. These will be the rules posted at the top of the topic: Round 7 rules for voting: --Voters have two options for voting:
--If you miss a day, it does not carry over --You may not edit your votes --Top 3 games move on to the final round --Alt voting is lame; dont do it --Ill try to post updated scores at the start of each day (you do not need to wait for this post to vote if the next day has started) --For all matchups and results, go to: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/78671644 --You must fully complete the vote form for your vote to count --Please do not abbreviate; use the game names as they appear listed --- snowpork azuarc is OP. |

| ZaziGuado 07/17/20 2:15:22 PM #11 | DpObliVion posted... Well, apparently Yahoo is having maintenance all day so drafts can't happen. There's a chance it could be up and running in time for our draft tonight, but can't really count on it right now. Nice of them to do this last minute with no advance warning, less than a week before the season starts. I'm pretty sure that should work for me. --- snowpork azuarc is OP. |

| ZaziGuado 07/16/20 5:47:24 PM #28 | red sox 777 posted... That would depend on his ability to fulfill his promises. He's generally an overpromiser (remember "you'll be able to file your taxes on a postcard") so I think it's better for him that his meaning is not clear. So his inability to articulately and accurately express his intentions is a positive for him because he, as you politely put it, overpromises. So either he makes sense and what he said doesn't happen or what he said doesn't make sense and gets misinterpreted which leads to unmet expectations. Neither of these is a positive thing, so I again ask how his saying things that can be easily misinterpreted is a positive characteristic. --- snowpork azuarc is OP. |

| ZaziGuado 07/16/20 3:30:24 PM #26 | red sox 777 posted... Well, if they decide they were in the wrong, they won't blame Trump for misleading them. Yes, they might still decide that he's not the best choice for reelection, but it's not nearly as bad a look as if they felt he lied to them. So are you proposing that he would lose less support this way than if he was actually able to accurately articulate his intentions from the start? Because I think it's more logical to say if people didn't misinterpret him, his ability to gain and hold support would be greater. --- snowpork azuarc is OP. |
| Topic | Election 2020 Statistics and Discussion |
| ZaziGuado 07/16/20 3:15:58 PM #24 | red sox 777 posted... People hear what they want to hear so they hear that he is going to do good things for them. If he ends up not doing them, they check what he said and decide he didn't break a promise; they just misinterpreted what he said. Okay but that doesn't answer the question. Just because they misinterpreted doesn't mean their expectations were not unmet. --- snowpork azuarc is OP. |
| Topic | Election 2020 Statistics and Discussion |
| ZaziGuado 07/16/20 3:05:48 PM #20 | red sox 777 posted... Trump is not eloquent but that's part of his appeal - most people are not eloquent themselves and have some distrust for eloquent people. Trump is outstanding at saying things in a way that his words can mean different things to different people. You can interpret his words to hear what you want to hear. How is his ability to say things that can be misinterpreted a good thing? --- snowpork azuarc is OP. |

| ZaziGuado 07/16/20 2:49:12 PM #16 | I'm always a little confused when people are quick to bring up issues that Biden has with public speaking but also fail to mention anything about Trump's horrible ability at it as well. Joe Biden struggles, no doubt about it, but he at least has a stutter that can be pointed to. Do people really think Trump filling the void of coherence with meaningless fluff words as he struggles to emphasize or explain his point is the sign of a strong public speaker? --- snowpork azuarc is OP. |
