    Also, do you have to do all of Steel Path to unlock Circuit? The wiki is COMPLETELY ucnlear about the unlock requirements.

    You should only have to do the Duviri paradox quest. You certainly do not have to do "all of steel path".

    P.S: To unlock any Duviri steel path content you have to first complete a round of all 3 versions (duviri, lone story, circuit) in normal.

    there's a fairly recent p-bandai high grade mercurius and vayeate combo kit with new molds, and some very old separate kits of each of them from the 90s. If you can see boxes, the old kits have color box art and the p-bandai combo kit has monochrome box art, as all p-bandai kits do.

    The new combo kit box art looks like this: b45thlnf8yym.png

    I'm finding a bunch of the combo kits for $80-$100, might grab one. Just gotta find make sure I'm buying from a trusted seller.

    Thank you!

    Edit: I bought one, won't get here till like mid May because it is coming from Japan.

    Found out I missed out on the LED set for the Calibarn from Witch from Mercury so I'm a little bummed out by that.

    lone story is identical to duviri experience, just without side objectives and farming to force people to only do the main objectives and the orowyrm, if that's what you're after. Duviri modes all have bad names.

    For past anniversary gift-of-the-lotus events, IIRC, clearing the first alert has unlocked the next, and so on. That doesn't seem to be happening this time. Can anyone confirm (that I'm not somehow bugged)? Do I just need to wait until next week?

    If this is the first anniversary reward you've done this year you've missed 5 out of the total of 8 weeks of anniversary rewards.

    Ah - it's true I've been away from the game for a while, but I'm pretty sure I did get the first of those, and (looking at the page you linked) the ones in between have all been repeats of stuff I already have, from the aforementioned previous anniversary events. And you've confirmed that they're giving out just one per period, so that answers my other question.

    Again, I'm going off memories of previous events, where (IIRC) they didn't draw things out like this, but offered the rewards over a single week or weekend as quickly as you could clear the alerts - primary weapon, secondary, melee, etc, boom boom boom done. Since I already had them all, the functional effect was just a bunch of free slots once I'd sold off the duplicates.

    Back on the 18th, I got a planned jaw surgery to fix my underbite. This has been in the works since January of last year, where I decided on purpose to get braces in perpetration for this.

    I knew one consequence for this would be that I won't be able to eat normally for a couple of months, in particular, for what will have turned out to be 10 days post surgery my mouth is banded shut. I knew this would also affect my ability to speak, but I figured it'd be like talking while keeping your mouth closed.

    Suffice it to say, since I'm posting in this thread it's way worse than I imagined. There's a splint that's helping keep my jaw in place while it's banded shut, which keeps me from making any sounds that require your tongue to hit the back of your teeth. I knew I'd be on a liquid diet as well, but y'all, I gotta say, I'm going to be the happiest I've ever been to have mashed potatoes here in a few days.

    I was supposed to get the same surgery for my underbite (they were going to break my upper and lower jaws), but ultimately I decided against it. I'm on anticoagulants so it'd be it's own issue coming off and then getting back on them, plus even though it's been awhile since I had one, I'm tired of surgeries and the recovery from them. Oh, and it was hard enough getting my insurance to agree to pay for the surgery, then we switched insurance providers and I didn't wanna go through the whole application process again. Oh, and even though they'd pay for the surgery for some reason they wouldn't pay the surgeon because he was out of network or some such, so that was going to be like $14k upfront paid in full before the surgery ever happened, which we can't afford like what the hell.

    tl;dr, was going to get it but changed my mind. My underbite needs to be corrected but I doubt I'll live long enough for it to ever really be an issue

    I've stopped trying to hit infinite a couple of seasons ago. This game is not the main one i play regularly except for completing the daily minimum and the time spent trying to get to infinite is not worth it for me. There's still significant time sinks in conquest to max out rewards that are more lucrative than a card back (subjectively)

    Yeah, it sounds like it could be easy, but I'd like to have an electrician have a look at everything in case some dumb decisions had been made and I don't want to be electrocuted.

    This particular breaker is labelled "GFCI Outlets" and encompasses the outlets in both bathrooms, the primary bathroom fan (but not the hallway bathroom's fan), the front porch outdoor outlet, and presumably the back porch outlet (haven't tested that one). The breaker itself has a "Test" button on it. None of the outlets in the bathrooms are GFCI-type outlets with the test and reset buttons. I'm wondering if it's a mistake that the bathroom fan is connected to this breaker, or a mistake that the hallway bathroom fan is not connected to it.

    You can wire a GFCI to protect just itself, or everything downstream from it on the circuit. I have the outlets by sinks in my basement set to 'self only' protection, so if it trips, the rest of the circuit stays live. Your fan could be either way and it is fine either way... like I wouldn't expect the fan to get wet but I could see someone deciding it was good to protect for. Just to check, though, you and your wife are aware that a tripped breaker needs moved to OFF before being moved back to ON, right? I'd guess so but figured worth checking. If you think it was just you guys getting confused, a bad GFCI outlet will only take a few minutes to replace and $20 or so for the outlet.

    Yeah, when the breaker tripped, I moved it to the off position a few times, but it didn't make that trademark click noise until I tried it again later that night.

    I've actually replaced GFCI outlets in my house myself a few times last year. That wasn't hard. I just don't want to mess with the breakers themselves. And it'd be good to have an electrician come out to have a look at everything anyway.

    For whatever it's worth, this pic has the breaker in question:

    Yeah same. Conquest is super grindy, but somehow the losses don’t feel as bad. I wish they’d implement a rank floor, or at least start your next season based on your high mark rather than your final ending point.

    As it is, I’ll get to 90 fairly easily and then it’s too stressful to try to push to infinite.

    I need to make better labels for our breaker box one day. I believe the one labelled "Hallway" controls the hallway lights + half the outlets in the primary bedroom and half the outlets in the second bedroom and maybe even some in the office.

    fellas fellas, the new thread title wasn't meant to be inspirational. Stop hurting yourselves!

    Yesterday the (very light plastic) paint tray I was using blew off the table in a strong gust of wind, landing underneath the table. I couldn't reach it from the side i was painting on, so I walked around the other side. Now, I was hyper aware that tucked beside and beneath the table was the (open) tin of paint, put there to keep it out of the wind. What I had forgotten was that the overalls I was wearing had flappy straps on, so when I bent down to pick up the tray, one of them dangled straight into the open paint tin, thoroughly coating itself, before flapping back and distributing paint all down the length of my body when i stood up.

    None of that's relevant to what you said, though, it's just background context for why I was already stressed out when I thoughtlessly grabbed a piece of wood to hammer the top of the paint tin back on and embedded 3 or 4 long splinters well into my palm.

    What provoked you to get that surgery? I have an overbite and I keep wondering if it's something I'm ever going to have to do anything about, or if at my age there's no point.

    Generally speaking, a slight overbite is what you want and what I was corrected to. I had an underbite of about 1cm that dentists/orthodontists had suggested I get corrected since I was a teenager. I put it off for years because it didn't seem to affect me and I didn't care about the appearance. I finally had a dentist prevail upon me that if I wanted to keep all of my teeth I needed to get this fixed (my back two upper molars did not have any teeth under them, rendering them effectively useless), and she also pointed out that all of the times I'd never been able to fully bite through a sandwich or a tortilla were because my underbite prevented from being able to bite and tear.

    The fact that my teeth are now straight and I'll have a pleasant, telegenic overbite are sort of bonuses in my view, but I also do care a lot more about my appearance these days so it really doesn't hurt. Well, I mean, right now it does, but that'll go away soon.

    The outlet in my bathroom has suddenly died. It apparently decided to do this in the ~2 seconds to unplug the nightlight that was lit up to make room for the fan I was plugging in. So naturally your first thought is going to be "Oh shit this fan is broken!". Y'know, considering you had visual evidence the outlet was working not 5 seconds ago. T'was only after plugging the fan in another outlet to confirm it was working and replugging the nightlight back in to no effect did I know it was the outlet itself.

    This is also when I made another realization. This bathroom is/was pretty much a private bathroom for another that I never really had much reason to use. Now I'm looking at this outlet that's not 6 inches from a sink and thinking... hey this isn't a GFCI outlet with the buttons... This isn't even an old house. The other bathroom has that outlet.

    I'm not broken up over it. I barely use the outlet anyways, and if it's true I'd need to replace it, that's an electrical job I actually feel reasonably comfortable doing.
