That thing where I have a great idea ....... and no one has any energy to do it, so it just fizzles and dies. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 25, 10:56 2
- (and no one includes me, which is why it fizzles and dies. No freaking energy.) -- nm - Beryllium Jul 25, 10:56
- (work-related gripe ...) -- nm - Beryllium Jul 25, 10:56
*amanda happy signal* *krusty angry signal* There is a Taco Bell Cantina opening a block from me -- nm - ty97 Jul 25, 10:45 1
- They must have *ALL THE TOILETS* -- nm - con_carne Jul 25, 10:48
PGO: Another day driving around and lunch dropping pokemon into every gym I can find. Spent another 200 coins for more bag storage. Fought in a raid - oblique Jul 25, 10:37 14
- oh and storage...yeah. - ty97 Jul 25, 10:50 2
  - Wow with the Max potions and revives. I keep mine around 60-70 each. - Johnny Lawrence Jul 25, 10:54 1
    - I no longer delete berries if I can help it. They go into gyms for stardust. -- nm - ty97 Jul 25, 10:54
- You'll get there with the solos - ty97 Jul 25, 10:47 2
  - I went through a long stretch where I built up stardust and then finally powered up a crap ton of solid raiding Pokemon. - Johnny Lawrence Jul 25, 10:58

    - They did? Well, that sucks for newer players. :) -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jul 25, 10:51 4
      - At least it isn't "win a raid". Just battle. In fact you don't even have to do the battle. Just enter the lobby and it gives you credit -- nm - oblique Jul 25, 10:52 3
        
        It sucks that a person that doesn't want to pay will take at least 10 days to finish that 1 task with free raid passes. nm - Johnny Lawrence Jul 25, 10:55 2
        
        Yeah. Considering it took me like a month to do the "catch 10 ghost" task before, doing a little under 2 weeks for raids isn't too bad -- nm - oblique Jul 25, 10:58 1
        
        lol - true dat -- nm - Johnny Lawrence Jul 25, 10:58

    - It was previously broken for Ant-Man, now it appears to be Mission Impossible (at the minimum) -- nm - MDH Jul 25, 10:57
    - that's super shady -- nm - Epiphany Jul 25, 10:48

  - Got me over to level 27 :) -- nm - oblique Jul 25, 10:33
  - I've been really bad about gifts since I've been interviewing aggressively. I'll be better once the interview hangover is gone. -- nm - amanda Jul 25, 10:13 1
    - I got bad during the busy quarter close period. Since then, I've just been getting killed by daily opening cap. -- nm - ty97 Jul 25, 10:14

  - 100K XP if you lucky egg it...... -- nm - ty97 Jul 25, 10:08 3
    - but it's not just 'in list' for 30 days. It's 30 days of interaction. - ty97 Jul 25, 10:09 2
      - how do I tell? -- nm - amanda Jul 25, 10:10 1
