NASCAR

I JUST watched a video the other night about NASCAR cheaters. Penske's name came up hard. Has been a known cheater for many years, I guess. There was one guy who kept trying to sneak bigger gas tanks onto his car. One way he did it was by installing a tank that was 2 gallons bigger than allowed. The...

Picked up where I left off the other night. Lost the first game against 2 medium. Again, my commander got caught out too far. Won the second game. Early pushes by them did take out some of my outer base defenses, but never any infrastructure. But that left a lot of metal for me to pick up and funded...

The build order is still, and probably will always be, pretty random, sort of. As far as wind vs solar. Windmills are cheaper to build, but have a variable output based on wind speed. In the upper right corner of the screen, you can see the current wind speed. If you hover over it, it will tell you ...

I'm figuring out early game econ. . . Just played a few games on a small map against a medium and a simple. Then I played one against 2 mediums. I easily won the medium and simple games. I 'think' I could have won the 2 mediums, but my commander got caught by heavy artillery while collecting metal. ...

Yes it is. She'll get promoted and stuff. She's just dressing for success.

T1 fighters now shoot ground targets. There are other reworks, but that's the one the streamers are going on and on about. They aren't against it, they just aren't sure about it. Short exposure impression, there's a small window at the beginning of the game where they are OP in specific situations.

Ok. Missed that. Was just skimming the puzzle. Didn't really try. I just did 4 random entries to get the solution immediately to see what the puzzle was about.

The one I just did said "Om" was a unit of measure. Did they mean Ohm? What does Om measure?

After a different fan threw the ball back to Beverley, tossed. Why? I mean, if an arrant ball goes into the stand, they toss it back out. This kid just happened to end up with the ball. The player calls for it back. He tosses it back. I mean, if he didn't toss it back, security would be going into ...

In the top right, there is a wind speed indicator. It will tell you the percentage of time when the wind will be below 6 or something. I don't know what the magic number is when you should or should not build windmills though. I normally build them if it's less than 10% of the time though. There is ...

I did. I was trying a new econ strategy. Also purposely kept myself closed in, as if I had teammates taking all the other spots. Wanted to practice econ with low resource availability. But I didn't have teammates taking the other spots, so they took them all. I should have been on a much smaller map...

War of the Worlds: The Attack

I forced my way through 25 minutes, then gave up. Horrible. CGI is pretty bad, but worse, is the writing. The foreshadowing is VERY obvious. But then, I know what's coming, so maybe it's forgivable? But they pretty much drop hints about all the stuff they are going to use after the invasion starts a...

There's apparently and Easter Egg in the game. Boxes that randomly spawn and will provide resources if destroyed. I've never seen one before this. They found one, and are sending units to destroy it, but no damage causing bots are firing on it. Only those stun drones that don't do damage, but of cou...

Just played a practice game where I tried to scale my economy up fast, but in a small area, like you would have to in a multi game. The entire game, I heard them shooting something, but I didn't know what it was. I only heard it when I zoomed out. Nothing of mine was getting hit. I thought it was a ...

Pink was also the 1 skill Razor guy. He had a tech 1 bot factory that sat idle the whole game, and he was overflowing resources for a while. I feel like the light blue next to me was the straw that broke their back. He was able to capitalize on the attention they had to give our blue guy. Responding...

Watching the replay. Remember when they surprised us with T3 units and had a good push going, and blue came in just in time with T3? He had been building pure econ up until we saw their T3 units. That's when he started building the gantry, and then the response units. His econ was so good, that he c...

HEHEH I just stared the replay, and saw us drawing out our epic strategy and I thought "How insignificant that was" after coming off of that HUGE ending.
