| Topic | how can i get better at poker? |
| jcmason 12/09/18 8:01:35 AM #5 | Playing online would be almost useless if youre trying to improve, theres virtually no reading other players beyond basic betting activity. Playing in a casino, while not necessarily a fun environment (smoke, noise, etc) is probably one of the better ways to learn, since you play against better players and learn from that experience. Playing with friends would be good too, since you know those people well and have a better chance of reading them, especially as you play more against them. --- https://join.worldcommunitygrid.org?recruiterId=545336 i7-7700K|H80|Z270|8GB 1070 GTX|16GB DDR4 @3200MHz|Corsair Graphite Series 600T White |

| jcmason 11/26/18 8:00:53 AM #4 | I wouldn't say others are wasting their money, but stuff like Sling and Hulu really just do not appeal to me. The whole point of streaming was for me to pay for a service and get content, not ads. Netflix does that for me. But Hulu and Sling, you get to pay for the subscription and you still have to watch ads. Really doesn't make sense. --- https://join.worldcommunitygrid.org?recruiterId=545336 i7-7700K|H80|Z270|8GB 1070 GTX|16GB DDR4 @3200MHz|Corsair Graphite Series 600T White |

| Topic | What was the biggest flop in gaming this year? |
| jcmason 11/17/18 9:03:20 AM #36 | I'd almost consider putting Vermintide 2 in the running for this, even though it was one of the best-selling games this year, and handily outsold the original. But it released at least 6 months too early, as it still has significant bug and balance issues even now, 8 months post-release. The tail fell way too fast, and it has a fraction of the playerbase that it had around launch. To their credit, the devs are trying to fix it, but I think we're at a point where it is too little, too late. Its a shame too, because the core gameplay loop is super satisfying, when it works right. It just doesn't work right consistently. --- https://join.worldcommunitygrid.org?recruiterId=545336 i7-7700K|H80|Z270|8GB 1070 GTX|16GB DDR4 @3200MHz|Corsair Graphite Series 600T White |

Most of these streaming services have little or no commercials, making them infinitely better than cable. The fact that for decades we were fine paying money to be served commercials shows how bad it was before subscription streaming fixed that. It's also why Hulu is fundamentally inferior to Netflix or Prime, and always has been. And now that cable companies have large portions of ownership of Hulu, it'll only get worse. They don't understand streaming. --- https://join.worldcommunitygrid.org?recruiterId=545336 i7-7700K|H80|Z270|8GB 1070 GTX|16GB DDR4 @3200MHz|Corsair Graphite Series 600T White |

| Topic | Why didn't GameFaqs think of doing video guides or wikis first? |
| jcmason 10/31/18 12:37:36 PM #20 | If it takes you 10-15 minutes to find the content youre looking for in a FAQ, then the FAQ is either poorly formatted (with sections not correctly labeled or something) or youre using it wrong by not searching correctly. For video guides, a 10-15 minute video is probably about 40% filled with hey guys, just here to talk about the newest build in XXXX game, where were finally excited to test out this new thing. But before we get in to that I need you to like, share, and subscribe so I can keep doing more of these videos. Then theres about 5 minutes of genuinely helpful content in the middle, and then the last 5 minutes is more time wasting about subscribing and linking to the next video this guy made, about something totally irrelevant. Ive used a couple video guides, but the format as it exists now is far from efficient. --- http://www.spacepiratesandzombies.com/ i7-7700K|H80|Z270|8GB 1070 GTX|16GB DDR4 @3200MHz|Corsair Graphite Series 600T White |

| jcmason 10/31/18 12:25:22 PM #10 | I absolutely prefer text guides wherever possible, video walkthroughs are awful. Having to scrub bacj and forth to find the content Im looking for when Im looking for it, its just a hassle. Ctrl + F on a well formatted faq is way easier to jump to exactly what I need. I think GFAQs probably wants to stick to the lightweight, consistent format of FAQs, rather than the bandwidth- and storage- expensive medium of videos. Plus, YouTube took off pretty fast for that content, so GFAQs probably didnt want to waste the effort trying to catch up to what YouTube was already doing well. --- http://www.spacepiratesandzombies.com/ i7-7700K|H80|Z270|8GB 1070 GTX|16GB DDR4 @3200MHz|Corsair Graphite Series 600T White |

| jcmason 09/28/18 9:10:45 AM #18 | But you said you can put 75% of your pay towards savings, which means you can put 75% towards debts. If you're not going to consolidate debts, then just focus on paying off the cards with the lowest balances first, one at a time, while covering the minimum payments on the other cards. Once you clear a card, move on to the next lowest one. This is called debt chunking, its one of the most popular methods for repaying large debts (far larger than yours) with minimal income. --- http://www.spacepiratesandzombies.com/ i7-7700K|H80|Z270|8GB 1070 GTX|16GB DDR4 @3200MHz|Corsair Graphite Series 600T White |

I work in the back-of-house so I dont have to worry about my time off requests being denied. Before this, I worked at a call center for 7 years that was also open on holidays, but I didnt have kids then so I typically just worked all those holidays, which would earn me time-and-a-half PTO for working.
