  1. PC specs aren't great, I got it probably nearing 11 years ago for like £400 prebuilt. 8 gigs of RAM, 2 2TB Hard Drive, and an Intel Core i5 Processor 4440. Never used Windows 11, barely hear anything about it, and my current thought are to just wait and see if it actually means anything to me. Like there was this fuss when Windows 8 came out and I made fun of Windows 8 at the time, but it was fine. Barely even memorable for me. I know it was starkly different to 7 in terms of the UI and somewhat different from 10, but for the life of me I could not tell you a thing about it. PC operating systems for me, just need to work with as few hope as possible. Regarding Linux, sure Steam, Discord, and Spotify would all work on it, but I currently only really use Steam for MtG Arena and more recently Hololive fangames, the last Discord message I've sent was probably a year or two ago, and Spotify certainly exists on my PC, but I basically never use it. I use Windows because most programmes I would use are made for Windows, and sure there are probably work arounds for Linux, but I am a fundamentally lazy person so why go through the extra effort. If they can see what is on my screen, good for them. Clearly they have nothing better to do than look at what generic Windows user 37,302,348 is doing. Oh look they watch anime clips on YouTube, oh now they've opened 2 instances of a Yu-Gi-Oh! simulator and playing against themselves with somewhat accurate anime decks before closing after two games. I do nothing on my PC that Microsoft would care for at all, so good for them.
  2. Current wallpaper, it'll cycle though a few screenshots of nice CGs of Visual Novels I've read though. Is my 2nd monitor, cause my main one is the same image but has clutter.
  3. Between the Sega Mega Drive, Playstation, and XBox, I prefer using the XBox ones. Feels like I've spent much more time playing one a 360 than using any of the PlayStations I've had (1 through 4) so the controller just feels much more comfortable. Plus the XBox had more games I actually went achievement hunting one. Also due to lots of time playing Halo and Mass Effect on the 360 I hate using a mouse+keyboard for shooters. Controllers allow for more comfortable sitting and/or reclining positions than mouse+keyboard.
  4. Been behind on watching anime I've been meaning to, so started watching through Soaring Sky! Precure after starting a rewatch of Hugtto!, and the Updraft Shining theme is a banger.

  5. With this weeks Arena tickets I've finished another nearly completely off-focus/4* Special +10, being Say'ri. Now to wait for Amatsu to be refined 'cause HP based Distant Counter kinda sucks.
  6. Doing a mono-Normal nuzlocke of Violet, and against Nemona's Quaquaval before the 7th Gym. Damage calc says +3 Atk Slash from Zangoose is a guaranteed one-shot. Turns out it isn't, not only did I have Zangoose 1 level higher from checking stuff for Tulip, which would just be bad luck, since only one damage role didn't KO. But the Gym Leaders, Elite 4, Geeta, and your Friends/Rivals aces have 252 EVs in HP. Should've either given the Silk Scarf or set up one more Hone Claw against Lycanroc.

  7. Completed a mono-Dark Nuzlocke of Scarlet. MVP would probably be Tyranitar, outpacing Hyrdreigon as the best Dark-type psuedo by being available 9 levels earlier and getting Dragon Dance. Also, not being potentially one-shot by Fairies. Outside of that Crawduant did work soloing Arven and Penny, and even Mabosstiff soloed Clavell. I also was stupid in the Penny and Clavell battles as I for some reason decided to only bring one 'mon.

  8. Managed to get my final merge for Ascended Idunn off the Rearmed/Ascended Banner and with the update, and not really having any other +10 plans, could immediately +10 NY!Female Kana.
  9. Playing through Seer's Snare and after seeing Spurn 4 pop-up thought, how many things can I get W!Altina to quad attack. The answer is nearly everything. It is really fun getting slow units to quad enemies they really shouldn't without the use of guaranteed follow-up attacks. Only shame is not being able to double Halloween Anna.
  10. Fittingly on the current Thracia 776 Banner I pull my final copy of Lief. Which means I have a "Lord" from each game up to Sacred Stones at +10. I am missing Ike and Micaiah for PoR/RD, Itsuki for Mirage Sessions, and either Alear for Engage.
  11. Only 2 days in to the New Year, and I've got a +10. Which now gives me a +10 from each Title.
  12. 2 more 5* exclusive +10s. Linde through a Binding Worlds Forma, and Mia as a 4* Special pull off the Legendary Banner. 6 more 4* Specials at +9 to try and get through Arena Tickets. Ylgr, Katarina (who is the most recent addition being this week's pull), Leif, Blue Olwen, Say'ri, and Tsubasa. Do kinda wish the Blue orbs from Arena Tickets would stop giving me Perceval and Dimitri, as I've gotten them to +6 nearly entirely from Arena.

    First shiny of The Indigo Disk. Well, technically its the second, but the first was also a Vibrava that I accidently KOed.

    1. The Chayncemaniac

      The Chayncemaniac

      My first shiny in the DLC was Minun, less than 2 hours into it 

  14. 72nd +10 finished. So back to merging up Camilla after my quick switch to Fir due to her Resplendent release. So back to the HM grind through Forging Bonds.
  15. The Arena ticket has given me another +10. Honestly I was expecting Ylgr, Linde or Olwen to be finished first from pulling Blue through the tickets since they've been at +9 for a while but Tana has been appearing the last few weeks.
  16. Doing a mono-Psychic Nuzlocke of Scarlet and is going well, went to do a bit of shopping before battling Ryme and the game crashes. But still the run has given me an appreciation for Armarouge. Only saving these runs right before picking my starter has backfired.

  17. 70th +10 unit is finished. Started merging up Camilla while waiting for the final few grails to come in thinking between her and Fir, Camilla would be the first to get a Resplendent and I picked wrong. Still, counting the upcoming Resplendent, Fir is only a merge behind Camilla so swapping track isn't to much of an issue.
  18. Two mono-type runs of Sword where I have found a shiny early on which I can't use. The first was a Rookidee on my Bug-type run, and now a Diglett on a Electric-type run. Even doing Scarlet runs I'll usually find a shiny Lechonk before the 2nd Nemona battle.

  19. Well, nearly wiped to Raihan. Lost 4 mons being Frosmoth who was only partook in the 2nd Marnie battle and Raihan's Gym, Ninjask, Centiskorch, and Pinsir. Only really won due to having the Magnet equipped onto Vikavolt so I was guaranteed the range with Thunderbolt, and Duraladon attacking Golisopod, who thankfully survived with 1HP.

      Would be kinda funny if you ended up having to rock an unevolved Skorupi ngl, but getting close

      Ended up wiping to Nessa. Killed the Pelipper a turn early, so my boosted Butterfree had to deal with a Tailwind boosted Barraskewda, and was outsped. Then hoped Durant would outspeed after the Tailwind ended, but nope and then got one-shot. Leaving a weakened Scolipede, Golisopod and Orbeetle. Scolipede then died to a crit Drill Run. Golisopod managed to get back to full from Leech Life against most of Nessa's team, but then Drednaw comes in and while Golisopod can survive a Max Rockfall, it triggers Emergency Exit.

      Losing my Vikavolt in the prior Bede fight screwed me over. Also forgetting to replace Light Screen with Reflect on Orbeetle.

      Oh ouch I totally forgot about Drednaw that's a tough one.

  20. Doing a Mono Bug Nuzlocke of Sword and the damn Policeman outside of Circhester with the Arcanine and Boltund has been the most annoying trainer so far. Ninjask doesn't do well against Arcanine, so I swap to Centiskorch thinking a Fire move. Ends up being Thunder Fang which paralyzes. Then swap to Golisopod since I wasn't paying attention, and then get Roared. Rinse and repeat until both Centiskorch and Golisopod would be dead to Extreme Speed from Arcanine, and pray that it goes for anything else so I can Sucker Punch it, which works due to a crit. Then the Boltund decides it also wants to use Roar. Did lose my Joltik since I needed a safe switch.

  21. Started a randomised Pokemon White 2 run and get a Gible starter, which gives Hugh a Klink. So of course the random moves Gible gets are all resisted by Klink. Then I head out to the first route and find a Garchomp, which Alpha the Gible did kill since it was a Mud-Slap vs Dual Chop. Then the second route has a Speed Boost/Dragon Dance Rayquaza, which died to a Rollout Luvdisc. Not event the second rival battle and it is already wild.

      The tale of Beta the Rayquaza killing Luvdisk was short. He died to a wild Combee.

      Well, that's the run over. I go to train in the dark grass and end up in a double battle against a Blitzle and Eelektrik. Turns out the Eelektrik had Wonder Guard and I had no Ground moves. So I was spamming the Run button and lost my Larion and Emolga. Then I get into a trainer battle against a Lillipup which uses Metronome and gets Frost Breath against my Gible. Didn't even reach Virbank.

    Started playing MTG:Arena on Tuesday, and I have now achieved all I wanted to do in MTG. Create a bunch of token copies of token doublers. Thus allowing me to turn a land into a 72/72 Elemental with 1,073,741,823 +1/+1 counters on it.

      Turn went: Use Destiny Spinner to turn Command Tower into X/X Elemental -> Use Yanna to create a copy of Primal Vigor -> Primal Vigor and my 5 Doubling Seasons instead stack to create 64 Primal Vigor Tokens -> Rosie Cotton of South Lane sees 64 Tokens ETB and so places a +1/+1 counter on Command Tower 64 times -> all 70 Primal Vigors and Doubling Seasons see this and stack reaching to counter cap 30 doubles in.
