RE:B2. I think it’s weird how similar looking at yet entirely opposite ‘resigned and re-signed’ are. It always gives me pause. - Volnelk Oct 15, 11:42 2
- :) -- (link) - Andie Oct 15, 11:55 [Backboard] 1
  - Exactly. Whenever it’s announced that a manager resigned, I always have to read the article to find out which it is. -- nm - Volnelk Oct 15, 11:59

- And you all laughed at Reagen for reporting that last night :/ -- nm - Meg Oct 15, 11:25 2
  - If Reagen told me to jump off a bridge I'd assume there was some scientific rationale and do it, it just *sounds* like a chainmail conspiracy. -- nm - Max Oct 15, 11:30 1

Yesterday, my reg defense was on a bye, I had Atlanta as a back-up and I got nervous. I picked up Indy, no way they'll give 35 pts to the Jets, right? - crash davis Oct 15, 11:19 22

    - Dan Bailey earlier this year when Minny got thumped by Buffalo. -- nm - Shaun Oct 15, 11:30
- If Drake hadn't fumbled at the goal line, my opponent would have taken the -25. Against Brock Osweiler! -- nm - Spawn Apparently Won a Bet Oct 15, 11:20 3

  - Brock Osweiler is sort of the summation of how crazy this season has seemed so far -- nm - crash davis Oct 15, 11:23 1
    - This is Broktober, we are all just visitors. -- nm - Spawn Oct 15, 11:25
- I had Baltimore on my bench for the Bears D - groiny Oct 15, 11:19 5
  - That's just bad luck -- the Bears should have been the start. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 15, 11:25
  - tbh, starting the Bears D is a no-brainer on paper. -- nm - Shaun Oct 15, 11:24 1
    - OBVIOUSLY. -- nm - groiny Oct 15, 11:25
  - I had Seattle on my bench and it will cost me the game in Caveman -- nm - Beaker Oct 15, 11:22

- 62 kilos of fugu -- nm - Max Oct 15, 11:29
Some things I wish I knew before starting my second and third characters on Forsaken. - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 15, 11:08 35
- And here is what I wish I knew on my first character. - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 15, 11:32
- Buy *no more than* one masterwork core from Spider everyday. -- nm - Spawn Oct 15, 11:10 33
  - That all depends on the cost. I doubles each time, but 20 or ever 40 legendary shards is fine. - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 15, 11:37 3
    - I can justify paying 10 for one and even 20. But no way I pay 40 for one. Not with the numbers I posted. If 40 gets me six. Hell, even half that. - Spawn Oct 15, 11:45 2
      - I've paid 80 for one several times. -- nm - Spawn Apparently Won a Bet Oct 15, 12:02 1
        
        The first time I bought from him I did (and beyond) as I did not realize they were escalating as I rapidly was clicking. -- nm - Spawn Oct 15, 12:12
  - I buy either two or three daily. -- nm - Spawn Apparently Won a Bet Oct 15, 11:12 28
    - I ran the Mercury run three times yesterday. Started with 100 shards. Ended with 63 and got 6 cores. -- nm - Spawn Oct 15, 11:14 27
      - I have no idea what the mercury run is, but I avoid that planet as much as possible. - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 15, 11:40 11
        
        As for your avoiding, it is small enough you do not need a sparrow. And has the best public event of any location. -- nm - Spawn Oct 15, 11:48 9
        
        It has the absolute worst public event of any location. It may be bugged, I hope that's the case. - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 15, 11:57
        
        It's also the longest one. There's a reason people *hate* when Mercury is the Flashpoint. -- nm - Shaun Oct 15, 11:54 7
        
        My only hate is that there is only *one* public event there. At least on Titan you have two. -- nm - Spawn Oct 15, 11:57 1
        
        Titan has 3, in 2 locations. - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 15, 11:59
        
        It's because you have to do 4-5 public events, and they only show up every half hour. -- nm - Spawn Apparently Won a Bet Oct 15, 11:57 4
        
        If people actually knew what they were doing you should be able to do it in 1 or 2 events and the heroic adventure. - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 15, 12:02 1
        
        Heroic counts 20% for me. Normal is only 15%. -- nm - Spawn Apparently Won a Bet Oct 15, 12:22
        
        Horrible. -- nm - Shaun Oct 15, 11:59 1
        
        I do like the mini-event, as well. -- nm - Spawn Oct 15, 12:00
        
        This is what I posted about it before. - Spawn Oct 15, 11:47
      - I'm kind of glad that I have no idea what this means. It sounds like an unnecessary unfun way to play. -- nm - Shaun Oct 15, 11:22 13
        
        Eh, it do it every few days. Good way to fill a number of bounties as I do a lap of mercury sometimes. But last night I did not as I wanted to get... - Spawn Oct 15, 11:24 12
        
        I'm not even sure what I'm allowed to do on Mercury. I ran the CoO story and moved on to Warmind. -- nm - Shaun Oct 15, 11:25 11
        
        Ah. No sparrows on Mercury but otherwise I love the place. And it is the place for this because you get both weapons and shaders from every engram that both break into shards. -- nm* - Spawn Oct 15, 11:29 10
        
        I got my Ace of Spades last night. Pumped. -- (edited) - Shaun Oct 15, 11:31 9
        
        I keep thinking I will do that. - Spawn Oct 15, 11:32 8
        
        One step is 25 precision kills with a hand cannon in Crucible. -- nm - Shaun Oct 15, 11:41 7
        
        That will take me like a year to get. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 15, 11:42 6
        
        It's easiest to do it in Rumble. -- nm - Shaun Oct 15, 11:43 5
        
        (I suck at Crucible) -- nm - JaxSean Oct 15, 11:58 2
        
        I know, but it's an easier task in Rumble. Reasons in IM -- (edited) - Shaun Oct 15, 12:00 1
        
        true -- nm - JaxSean Oct 15, 12:17
        
        Do private matches count? - the wrong element, bad guy Oct 15, 11:49 1
        
        I doubt it, as I haven't seen any mention of it anytime the topic came up. Just Rumble. -- nm - Shaun Oct 15, 11:55
      - I'd rather just play the game and shred stuff for legendaries. -- nm - Spawn Apparently Won a Bet Oct 15, 11:21

- His code name is "Mogul" - Amoxy Oct 15, 11:26 5
  - As in, an annoying bump you have to go around. -- nm - Reagen Oct 15, 11:39 2
    - First read it as Mowgli -- nm - Amoxy Oct 15, 11:42 1
      - You shouldn't get him wet either. -- nm - Reagen Oct 15, 11:49
  - Iirc, they don't pick the code name. - Will Hunting Oct 15, 11:28 1
    - He probably loves it. And irony is dead because of him, he wouldn't get that it is diss at him -- nm - Amoxy Oct 15, 11:32
- Bummer. nm - Ab-raham Lincoln Oct 15, 10:55 10
  - Although I'd be fine with a rapture, ultimately I want him to live ostracized from every power event from here on. - Max Oct 15, 11:49
  - No. Pence would declare Martial Law -- nm - Amoxy Oct 15, 11:20
  - And make him a martyr for more military adventurism in the Middle East? No thanks. -- nm - Super Daddy Princess Oct 15, 11:00 2
    - Ah...so you're advocating for an inside job. Makes sense. -- nm - Ab-raham Lincoln Oct 15, 11:02
    - and make ISIS look successful instead of the bunch of losers who had their assess handed to them? -- nm - crash davis Oct 15, 11:02
  - I vehemently disagree, for several reasons -- nm - crash davis Oct 15, 10:58 4
    - The only reason I would disagree is because other people could have been collateral damage. nm - Ab-raham Lincoln Oct 15, 11:00 3
      - I will set aside the fact that we should aspire to hold almost all life sacred. How about there is a chance he committed a crime and can go to jail - crash davis Oct 15, 11:04 2
        
        I know he's committed many crimes and I feel just as certain that he'll never go to jail. -- nm - Ab-raham Lincoln Oct 15, 11:05 1
        
        If there is definite evidence of collusion with a hostile foreign power, I think its highly likely. -- nm - crash davis Oct 15, 11:08
- Is it just me or does it seem that terrorists are just as dumb as everyone else broadcasting their location all over social media? -- nm - oblique Oct 15, 10:55 1
  - Yeah, they are stupid -- nm - crash davis Oct 15, 10:56
