Love to play with software. Some people pay me to do it. Play guitar with little skill or discipline, sometimes it sounds like jazz. But really, all you need to know is that about 80% of my wittering is about #TheTraitors

Missing the match again because of a badly booked barbers appointment. Just seen we’re winning again. Guys, forget clement, I think the real issue has been me watching. #ncfc

The World Cup draw was quite the chore, but then I got to watch Wayne Gretzky phonetically read country names and all was saved.

Cloudflare has been having more issues with a key part of its platform. They could just replace the site with just a big β€œprobably” this morning.

Didn’t lock my phone when at gym today, came out to realise I pocket tiled 10 of my recent calls between 630 and 7. Thankful that I get hit with so many cold calls, I think I’ve only had to send 2 mortified apology texts.

I’m looking forward to YT wrapped dropping internationally next week. Fully expecting nothing but Norwich, Balatro and jazz guitar channels.

Sure, I guess by that definition they both elected not to and elected to. Still feels mealy mouthed. And unnecessary. They might have argued they wouldn’t have let Nunez go with a sarge sale.

I dunno, it just feels a bit off to me. To be fair, I was impressed with the rest of the q&a.

Listening to the #ncfc agm q and a, MA has said twice β€œwe could have sold Josh but we elected not to” completely unchallenged. Am I just hallucinating an accepted 20m bid from Wolfsburg that Josh turned down?

It’s a great outcome, but why rewrite history? A sale of that amount is understandable.

Just come out of the faraday cage that is the sea life centre. I need to go in there more often - 3-1?! #ncfc

Oh god - the calculus you have to do late on on whether this rental is worth the money hit or the perishable gives you enough rounds until you find something better. I don’t miss that.

I found the same when I was doing completionist+ - struggle on one stake and then one shot the next two.

And congrats! - i do love when you get an early vampire, especially when you pair it with something like Midas. Make the numbers go brrr πŸ˜€

Agree on black deck, number of hands is rarely the decider for me (I’m a lot more binary in either I’m winning confidently or failing miserably) - only got particularly challenging in last couple stakes, but I saw that in most deck types.

I’d also put it out there that I’m not an expert, more a determined grinder. This is mostly garnered from watching a lot of high level streamer content.

I’m currently working on naneinf, but it’s slow going!

generally need something like hyperscaled xmult when you get to higher antes and chips can’t carry you, particularly with higher stakes and higher targets. I include it as an option because broken combos aren’t guaranteed. Also econ is your friend - rerolls are massive in looking for synergies.

Plasma is my favourite deck. Trick is go in on chips jokers early (up to ante 4 or 5), in that time, the antes run themselves. Rest of time I work on economy and finding xmult or broken combos (hanging chad, or lots of kings baron) to take you through to the big numbers. Just beware of the bosses.

Going back an ante is a bit counterintuitive, but it’s really good for your game if you want a higher score - an extra ante to build your deck can give you two or three more antes longer term.

You go to ante 0 and the blinds go even lower

The other positive to take from that - there was a serious marked change in how we played after Clement had only a week with them. That bodes well. #ncfc

Forson’s one role seemed to be get in position to receive the ball and instantly dribble into an easy tackle.

A lot of positives in that performance, which makes that ending even more frustrating. Thought Kellen looked great until last ten minutes, whole left hand side looked good in fact. Press looked lively, attacks were genuinely threatening. Bit then Norwich went and Norwiched it. #ncfc

I’ve been holding off on commenting, because, well - you know what happens. But this is the best I can remember us looking in the second half all season. #ncfc
