[cosmic pier]

i dont like talking to people

[solar fjord]

[cosmic pier]

@solar fjord

[errant burrow]

[cosmic pier]

how many times do I gotta tell you

stop running around with a hammer pointlessly

[dapper geode]

Is it normal to be playing AL drunk?

[warm bluff]

[dapper geode]

Cause everything feels 2x easier

[cosmic pier]

dont see a reason why wouldnt it be

[dapper geode]

Idk tbh

It just feels 2x faster when under the influence

probably cause the PR grind feels a lot less depressing.

[cosmic pier]

pr grind never felt depressing to me

maybe cuz I was depressed already

[dapper geode]

It did for me after Roon

cause I'm the moron who picked Izumo over Louis

[cosmic pier]

[dapper geode]

Don't ask how/why

OKAY I'll entertain the thought

[cosmic pier]

why

[dapper geode]

I have more high-level IJN BB than USS CA/CL

[warm bluff]

use saint louis grind as an opportunity to get more uss ca/cl

[dapper geode]

I mean I have a bunch

but way underlevelled to grind 9-4

and I dont want to grin anywhere beneath that cause rip my patience and sanity

[cosmic pier]

just use your friendly neighbor subs

[sharp lichen]

How can we get Comeback ? at the end of invitation ? xd

[dapper geode]

Nice.

[warm bluff]

quit for a month and come back apparently

[dapper geode]

But I'll stick to anniversary icon and Ironblood icon

[sharp lichen]

ok ok

[warm bluff]

[dapper geode]

I kinda would do the invitation thing

but I know my irl buds who played AL would murder me if I sent these out

[cosmic pier]

nani

[errant burrow]

Some hard core friends

[dapper geode]

For real tbh

guess the gacha made them angry

speaking of the devil

I still dont have Formidable after building endlessly

down to 9 cubes

[sharp lichen]

:c

[dapper geode]

tomorrow it ends

and no Formidable

and I got all the equipment ready and books and everything

so I'm bummed.

[dense wing]

ive been too sick to grind

so now im very behind

[wintry sonnet]

sucks you can't get the remaining 10 phases from the rally

[ornate mantle]

10 phases from what.

[wintry sonnet]

7 universal prints and 3 cubes

[dapper geode]

And honestly I'm mega pissed I got 2 Littorio from build rather than even a single Formidable

[wintry sonnet]

this thing azu

you can only get 500 points on your own

[dapper geode]

I know that sound great but hear me out. I dont want dupes, I can live without dupes. I just want a new character.

[dense wing]

ye cause u need to send your uid to a returnee

[wintry sonnet]

are you supposed to be able to send it more than to one person btw

[dense wing]

I got formi yesterday night thankfully

[wintry sonnet]

cause I sent it out once and it never refreshed

[dense wing]

yes like 2 people

[wintry sonnet]

well shit

it's been stuck on sent ever since the rally started

[dense wing]

I dont think theres enough people

[wintry sonnet]

thought you can only do it once

[dense wing]

returning

or new

[wintry sonnet]

wait... so does it just pick people at random

[sharp lichen]

I got more than 500 points

[dense wing]

ive no idea

my friend sent her uid to 2 people who were new

[dense wing]

her friends I mean

im still behind on phases

though we have until near november

so no need to flip out too soon I think

[stuck copper]

Kawa

[verbal obsidian]

apple

[cosmic pier]

apple

[wintry sonnet]

I mean I still dont quite get it, are you supposed to actively ask people out or if the game handles that for you

[dense wing]

what I get from the ? is that when u send ur uid out new players can press a button to randomly input an activr players uid

or you can send your own to a new player

but I think theres a lot more active than new players

[stuck copper]

@verbal obsidian

@cosmic pier

[wintry sonnet]

[stuck copper]

i thought you had to enter another player's UID

[dense wing]

so I think a lot of people are just left hanging without a new player

only if ur new

[wintry sonnet]

that's what I thought too

[stuck copper]

i guess i missed out then

[wintry sonnet]

the longest someone's been inactive in my friend list is 38 days and I dont think that reaches beyond august 11

[stuck copper]

especially when you’re already on avrora

[dense wing]

its goes all servers tho

[stuck copper]

[wintry sonnet]

well, if it turns out there aren't physically enough people to complete 1000 points

then hopefully they'll give you some option of getting it solo

[stuck copper]

you're a funny one. i'll kill you last.

[cosmic pier]

no

leave me for last

[wintry sonnet]

the way this thing is worded sounds like if 2 people put your UID in

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

and then just dont play

you're physically blocked from actually reaching it

[carmine coyote]

@dense wing yeah I'm one of those regulars left hanging by not getting anyone new to help

[dense wing]

I dont know if I am

im probably holding my returnee back if anything

sorry bro ive been sick

[verbal obsidian]

how come i got essex cry

[dense wing]

I even ran out of cubes bc ive abandoned playing

[verbal obsidian]

[cosmic pier]

school has stress?

[dense wing]

I had so much homework this weekend

[errant burrow]

It did for me back in hs

[dense wing]

I played games on saturday and

[warm bluff]

school was so much more stressful than work is right now

[dense wing]

since saturday is my rest day

[cosmic pier]

I wasnt stressed while sleeping in class

[warm bluff]

[dense wing]

[wintry sonnet]

[errant burrow]

So basically, one horrible weekend?

[dense wing]

[warm epoch]

heh

I dropped 2 ap classes

[dense wing]

yes one sick awful weekend

[warm epoch]

Now my grades rose

[cosmic pier]

dropped 2 armor piercing classes

[warm epoch]

Yeah

[dense wing]

all my teachers and peers told me taking 2 ap classes at once is a bad idea

and so I took 1 this year

[warm epoch]

They pierced me good

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

lewd

[dense wing]

and now everyone I know taking 2 is complaining its too hard

like wow they didnt tell us that for no reason.

[errant burrow]

What, just 2 is bad? I took 3 one year

[dense wing]

yes because teachers expect us to be busy

[warm bluff]

ap classes were easy though

[dense wing]

most people have extra activities after school

[warm epoch]

I mean I'm taking 2 ap classes, but the second one is next semester

[dense wing]

dont have much time for homework

[cosmic pier]

in this week's gay shit episode of milfsekai
they introduced some shit named "full mommor" or sth, to replace armor, its special effect is that the moms dont take damage when their sons hit them @errant burrow

[dense wing]

im in avid so im forced to be busy too

which is ape

[cosmic pier]

ur an ape

[warm bluff]

[warm epoch]

My ap classes won't even affect me that much

I'm going to a nice college that doesn't require much

[errant burrow]

@cosmic pier oh man. Time to catch back up

[cosmic pier]

[dense wing]

[errant burrow]

AP physics was by far the worst of all my AP classes in hs.

[warm bluff]

[dense wing]

[verbal obsidian]

i can try to help u with ap bio

only ap i got a 4 on

[dense wing]

[cosmic pier]

mfw phone got wet but put it on my laptop and turned off the cooling pad
after a while my phone got so hot I think it was cursing me and yelling like all the water's gone

[dense wing]

its a guided reading so the worksheet he gave us has questions and we have to answer them based off the book

[verbal obsidian]

oh oof one of those

[warm bluff]

i got a 4 when i took ap bio 7 years ago

[dense wing]

yeah...

so far we have had to read 2 but ive read .5

[cosmic pier]

mfw everyone talking of armor piercing classes

[dense wing]

bc I didnt know when it was due lul

[cosmic pier]

and I dont even know the heck it is

[dense wing]

advanced placement

essentially a college level course class in HS

[stuck copper]

i'm just glad i don't have to deal with that shit lmao

[cosmic pier]

Description
Advanced Placement is a program in the United States and Canada created by the College Board which offers college-level curricula and examinations to high school students. American colleges and universities may grant placement and course credit to students who obtain high scores on the examinations.```

oh ok

murica and cana

[dense wing]

cant transfer them anywhere else but the community college

[ornate mantle]

Wait what.

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

Whaaaaaat.

[dense wing]

yep

[ornate mantle]

Well that sucks.

[dense wing]

agreed but its kind of ok

[stuck copper]

Azu.

[dense wing]

at least I have the knowledge already right

so if I am forced to take a similar class, I’ll be ahead of the game

thats the case with me right now in anatomy

[ornate mantle]

Yeah, but taking classes a second time is a huge waste of time.

[dense wing]

medical terms and directions, I already know them acing those quizzes

[ornate mantle]

At least that’s how I see it.

[dense wing]

yeah unfortunately

time and money

[ornate mantle]

Indeed

[warm bluff]

does taking an anatomy class help with art?

[dense wing]

yes

[warm bluff]

[dense wing]

we have a coloring book

[ornate mantle]

I think anything that gives perspective is good for art.

[dense wing]

but im behind because I was sick all weekend :))))

[warm bluff]

oh ya azu how is your drawing going?

[dense wing]

if u want pictures of my pages inaba I can take scans

[warm bluff]

[dense wing]

it might help u understand anatomy and perspectives more but im not 100% sure

rip

how did it go?

[ornate mantle]

The interview went very well.

But I can’t take the job.

[warm bluff]

but what if they pay really well?

[dense wing]

aww

[ornate mantle]

The only way they can make it worth is if I’m getting $60 an hour.

[dense wing]

I had to do interviews in avid and I was a mess

[warm bluff]

[dense wing]

thankfully it was only with a friend but

I was like

umm... uhh.... I need to think... um....

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

Yeah. Crazy part is that the work location is nearly 3 hours with traffic.

[dense wing]

holy

no dont do it

unless u want to move

[stuck copper]

[dense wing]

which I doubt

[ornate mantle]

But the road back is empty as fuck and takes about an hour.5 to get back

[stuck copper]

Wait, you’re making $60 an hour!?

[warm bluff]

i had to move for my current job since it's 5hrs away from my parents place

[ornate mantle]

And I’m surprised Baltimore made it.

[warm ice]

don't really care for Iron Blood tbh

[stuck copper]

bismarck is only there because people can't vote enty

[wintry sonnet]

interestingly if you look at the amounts of votes

[stuck copper]

"might as well vote enty 2"

[wintry sonnet]

EN's actually not that far behind JP

I would've expected way lesser numbers

[stuck copper]

JP voting for bid tiddy psycho woman is scary

[ornate mantle]

I’m down for that.

[wintry sonnet]

that said I like how the only server with a loli in top 3

is dEgeN

[ornate mantle]

Every ship there is one I would vote for except Baltimore.

[wintry sonnet]

[warm bluff]

the only ship i would vote for there is unicorn

[ornate mantle]

Lol, wtf? CN had two Lolis when the voting for round 1 was done.

It was Uni, FdG and idr the other one.

Maybe it was laffey.

[wintry sonnet]

propably laffey

[ornate mantle]

I’m actually surprised Uni isn’t in top 3 for CN.

[warm bluff]

laffey and unicorn are cute

[wintry sonnet]

maybe the lolis are still up for vote

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

If that’s how you wanna rationalize it sure.

[warm bluff]

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

Idk. I forgot Birmingham existed.

[wintry sonnet]

I mean she landed 1st in comeback round

so apparently she's quite popular

[ornate mantle]

Oh, I haven’t been checking comeback round...

[warm bluff]

why is columbia so far down though?

[wintry sonnet]

that's what I posted above

the 10 ships are the top 10 of the comeback round

[stuck copper]

because nobody has her

[ornate mantle]

Yeah, I didn’t even look at the other ships... I just saw what was pointed out with Nagara.

[warm bluff]

columbia is so cute and good though

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

Columbia is nice.

I wish I had her.

[verbal obsidian]

[wintry sonnet]

[dense wing]

[cosmic pier]

"why u wear 1 sock"

ITS TOO LOOD

[warm bluff]

some people would say otherwise

[cosmic pier]

you just dont get it

[wintry sonnet]

I dont know of any people like that

[cosmic pier]

asking questions is lood

[wintry sonnet]

legs and feet are perfectly normal

and definitely not lewd

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

you just want to be low-key lewd

[dense wing]

ugh every time I draw feet I think of aquan and I feel sick

Feet sick

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

Hello

they're hard to draw, so they're often left out

[wintry sonnet]

they are, you gotta get alot of details right

[stuck copper]

only detail i care about is that they get the sides right

you'd be surprised how often the left one is on the right side and vice versa

[ornate mantle]

Goddamn bunny retrofits are coming tomorrow huh.

[wintry sonnet]

[stuck copper]

once you see it, it just hurts your brain

[wintry sonnet]

[ornate mantle]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[wintry sonnet]

my biggest pet peeve is when they draw flat foot

[ornate mantle]

2 more retrofits getting added

[wintry sonnet]

or when all 5 toes are basically the same as the big toe

[cosmic pier]

aquan likes his feet busty

[stuck copper]

my coins are ready

[ornate mantle]

Mine aren’t.

Busy doing the sims retrofit.

[warm bluff]

[cosmic pier]

just get more gold

[ornate mantle]

My only solace is that I have all the BP ready.

As long as it’s not a cruiser or DD I’m pretty okay.

[wintry sonnet]

I mean at this point in time if you've been around for a while, prints are almost completely a non issue

[ornate mantle]

For the most part now, yes. I’ve caught up with retrofitting...

[wintry sonnet]

coins are because everything and their mother requires coins nowadays

[stuck copper]

unless you've been grinding dd prints like a complete moron (me), yeah

[ornate mantle]

I’ve been only farming cruiser prints.

[stuck copper]

i'm a bit light on cruiser prints

[ornate mantle]

I can’t wait to completely catch up.

And then for the life of me just stockpile BPs.

[cosmic pier]

i cant wait till you ketchup

[wintry sonnet]

lol actually

aside of acasta and ardent who are 88 and 93 affection all the remaining retrofits I got are all 100 aff

including rabbits

so I can have a 100% retrofit log this week

[ornate mantle]

Damn good.

Do it man.

I’m thinking by the end of this week I should have 100% retrofit log as well.

[wintry sonnet]

too bad I can't have a 100% collection because fucking submarines REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[cosmic pier]

[warm bluff]

lots of my retrofits are at 50 affection

[ornate mantle]

As long as I get the gold cruiser BPs I need.

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

I need 4 Gold Cruiser BP.

[ornate mantle]

No it primarily goes to switch games

[warm bluff]

[stuck copper]

i mean, he thought those black ramen bags were the same as the regular ones. maybe he just wasted a ton of money on those

[dapper geode]

So far I like York refit

[stuck copper]

[dapper geode]

Idk if this is the current topic at hand but

[warm bluff]

that wasn't me that bought the ramen

[dapper geode]

Im still sobering upp, forgive me

[ornate mantle]

Really sad.

[cosmic pier]

nice censor

[wintry sonnet]

at least you're not tempted to roll until she returns azu

I have to roll special everyday because that's the only way I'll get the 2 I miss

[warm bluff]

but they aren't even banned now

[stuck copper]

was 522 limited?

[wintry sonnet]

yea

[cosmic pier]

ja

[ornate mantle]

Limited with some other subs

[wintry sonnet]

she was in that limited build with u-101 and i-168

[stuck copper]

oh

[ornate mantle]

I didn’t even realize I didn’t have her

[wintry sonnet]

she's a good sub too

[stuck copper]

she's so forgettable

[ornate mantle]

I just forgot about her, lmao.

[wintry sonnet]

she has that skill that lets you attack 1 enemy fleet out of sub range

[cosmic pier]

portland the sub

[stuck copper]

"wait.. what is that? vestal? no, it's a sub. where did that one come from?"

[warm bluff]

i use her in my sub fleet just for that one skill

[ornate mantle]

What an uninspired meme.

Any silver haired girl gets called Enty or Portland, lmao.

[wintry sonnet]

silver hair = must be portland

what's your progress on the woozy party?

[wintry sonnet]

6/7

[stuck copper]

[wintry sonnet]

1/2 on the build part cause fuck spending cubes when I can just finish it tomorrow

[ornate mantle]

I still gotta do yesterday Rally call.

[stuck copper]

i was worried i might have skipped a day

[cosmic pier]

doesnt matter

[wintry sonnet]

do it azu, you only got over a month left

[stuck copper]

eh, it's just one cube, so whatever

[ornate mantle]

Holy shit gotta go fast

[warm bluff]

"just" one cube?

[wintry sonnet]

for me it's 2 cubes

[warm bluff]

[cosmic pier]

they get unlocked day by day, regardless if you do em or not

[stuck copper]

oh, nice. now i got 300 flat

looking good

[ornate mantle]

I’m at 139 still.

[wintry sonnet]

oh yea

[ornate mantle]

Hoping to hit 200 by next build event.

[wintry sonnet]

tomorrow we should get a gold cat box

[ornate mantle]

Even better

[wintry sonnet]

swear to god if I get one more takemaru with IJN buff

[ornate mantle]

Maybe I’ll finally hit 400 nat cubes

[stuck copper]

last time i checked, we get 40 per week + commissions

so you can sort of guess how many you are likely to have by then

[wintry sonnet]

not enough

[warm bluff]

so 40 per week + 0

[stuck copper]

well, yeah... probably...

[wintry sonnet]

is the 40 by week assuming you do light build only?

[stuck copper]

i think it is

i just checked the wiki and added them

so

[warm bluff]

i have 7 cubes right now

[stuck copper]

there's a chance you still have to deduct the ones you spend on builds

[verbal obsidian]

[stuck copper]

don't blame me. i was in the bathroom when i checked. i only had so much time

[ornate mantle]

I’ve been fairly blessed.

[verbal obsidian]

thats a fair excuse cal

youre forgiven

[ornate mantle]

Got +6 cubes alone from this mornings overnight cube comms

[wintry sonnet]

how's that an excuse

toilet's THE place for having time for any intellectual work

[ornate mantle]

No, that’s the shower.

[verbal obsidian]

but hes probs booty cheek naked in the middle of the night

[ornate mantle]

When you’re able to solve all of life’s problems.

[verbal obsidian]

there's most likely a draft cause he left his door open

his eyes are half shut

[ornate mantle]

Wtf Zui.

[wintry sonnet]

I dont think he has an outhouse

[verbal obsidian]

hes trying not to let his butt cheeks hit the cold bowl

ya know?

gosh

[ornate mantle]

Did Lila hack ur account.

[stuck copper]

it's the middle of the week. save the drugs for the weekend.

[ornate mantle]

[cosmic pier]

this is normal for hita

[verbal obsidian]

[cosmic pier]

[verbal obsidian]

sorry i'm on hour 14 of being in this stupid office

i just wanna go home

[wintry sonnet]

besides if you were butt naked in the middle of the night in the toilet with half shut eyes

why would you be checking how many cubes you get in a week in the first place

[stuck copper]

why would you NOT be butt-naked when you're on the toilet anyway?

[ornate mantle]

About 40 cubes per week huh.

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

That’s about 20 rolls just by free cubes alone.

[verbal obsidian]

hey man, Cal coulda been having a nightmare about losing coobes

[ornate mantle]

That’s actually awesome.

Compared to many games.

[stuck copper]

that would be way nicer than the usual ones, actually

[verbal obsidian]

I need to change my pfp to a cute pic of zkk

this clown is getting creepy

[cosmic pier]

wait

isnt that a cute pic of zkk u got on rn

[ornate mantle]

Do it.

[cosmic pier]

[verbal obsidian]

ya got me there rei

[ornate mantle]

Put a cute ZKK!

[warm bluff]

cute pics are always better

[verbal obsidian]

[cosmic pier]

the clown is a cute zkk posing as a clown

[verbal obsidian]

[wintry sonnet]

3 cubes per day if you build light, + 6 cubes per week, + 3 cubes from the weekly if you do 3 extra builds in light

• whatever the amount of cubes you'll get from the monthly login at the time

[stuck copper]

yeah, i just checked. they did not deduct any cubes you spend on pulls

so that's 30

[verbal obsidian]

[wintry sonnet]

yup, 30 cubes if you only do the neccessary amount of light builds, 20 if you do it in any other

so I guess it does make it 20 rolls per week assuming you're doing limited

[ornate mantle]

It’s pretty awesome.

[stuck copper]

30 + comms + license

[warm bluff]

trade license is expensive

[stuck copper]

and then you lose it all in one day

[wintry sonnet]

oh yea, I'm on 7 days for trade license

time to extend

[ornate mantle]

I don’t trust your sense of value anymore Luna.

[stuck copper]

wait

[warm bluff]

wait why

[ornate mantle]

[stuck copper]

didn't one of you utter something about not spending anymore?

[verbal obsidian]

ye idk luna

[ornate mantle]

$8 gives you so many resources that it’s actually one of the best value wise.

[warm bluff]

$8 is a lot

[wintry sonnet]

I did, on account of if I had to spend 10$ on Zara and end up not getting her in the end, that'd be the end of money exchanging hands

[ornate mantle]

I’m F2Pz

[verbal obsidian]

FREE TO PAY

[ornate mantle]

[verbal obsidian]

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

Free to PayThemAllMyMoney

[warm epoch]

[stuck copper]

21 days left on mine

[wintry sonnet]

what kind of f2p, the actual f2p or the NBA 2k20 kind, where you're f2p if you buy the 60$ game but dont spend money on microtransactions

yes that's a legit case someone made for being f2p

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

The one where my money is automatically deposited into Akashis bank account.

Probably the cheapest monthly card I’ve seen is GFLs

Sitting at like $3.

@warm bluff : is that expensive?

[stuck copper]

i wish AL were 5 bucks

AK should be cheap tho. looking forward to that.

[ornate mantle]

$5 for those resources would be so high value.

[warm bluff]

$3 a month is expensive

[ornate mantle]

I’ve lost trust in you Luna.

[warm bluff]

that's like $36 a year

[ornate mantle]

[warm bluff]

[stuck copper]

so

you are saving an entire year

just to have 36 bucks?

[wintry sonnet]

3$ a month would be me taking 3 days not to ride a bus and just going on foot

[warm epoch]

Wait

[stuck copper]

sometimes i think "i'm not gonna pay that", but then i realize how much trouble i save myself by spending those 2 extra bucks lol

[wintry sonnet]

oh ffs

[warm epoch]

Save 36 in a year?

[ornate mantle]

It’s such a negligible advantage that’s built over 1 years time.

[wintry sonnet]

I have barely over the needed amount to get the gems needed for formi skin

[stuck copper]

that was the point i was trying to make

[wintry sonnet]

but google's gonna temp-charge me for linking the card

[warm epoch]

I want formi skin, but I don't have formi

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

Yeah you’re good Cald.

[stuck copper]

i mean, 36 bucks are 36 bucks, sure. but in a year? that's ...

[warm epoch]

very little

[stuck copper]

10 cents per day lmao

[cosmic pier]

3$ is a bunch

[warm bluff]

[warm epoch]

I can work that in about 3.5 hours

Money paid off

[wintry sonnet]

7$ for 500 gems and then 30 cubes, 30k coins and 6k oil in a month's time is a pretty good deal all things considered

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

It’s an amazing deal.

30k coins is about 800 gems.

[cosmic pier]

30k cubes

[warm epoch]

[cosmic pier]

[warm epoch]

30k cubes

[stuck copper]

eh, it's okay

[warm epoch]

Damn

I want that deal

[stuck copper]

keep in mind you're paying for resources

which isn't really necessary

[warm bluff]

i'm very stingy with buying virtual good

[warm epoch]

I think about virtual goods, then I see the amount people pay for coffee

[stuck copper]

14/15 home stretch zzz

but the extra cubes are nice

[ornate mantle]

30 cubes is about 900 gems.

• 800

• 500

Then convert 6k Oil into gems and add that.

You’re easily getting about $20 worth of resources for $7

[warm epoch]

@warm bluff I see people who pay 60+ a week for coffee from starbucks

[stuck copper]

Azu

[stuck copper]

[wintry sonnet]

gotta love end of month bank account balance

[warm bluff]

with gachas i'm trying to avoid falling down a slippery slope of gambling fallacies and stuff

[warm epoch]

I think spending on virtual doesn't affect much

Wait

[warm bluff]

i pay $0 for coffee since my work gives us coffee

[ornate mantle]

Yeah but, AL isn’t really a gamble.

[wintry sonnet]

I mean it is tho

[warm epoch]

I just use gems to buy skins and dock space

[stuck copper]

uhm

[cosmic pier]

gacha is gamble

[wintry sonnet]

the gacha is precisely how gambling works

[ornate mantle]

The gems don’t need to be spent on a gamble though.

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

You can buy skins which is guaranteed.

[stuck copper]

the only thing that makes it tolerable is the amount of free stuff we get

[ornate mantle]

At least that’s how I see it on my own policies.

[wintry sonnet]

just cause parts of AL aren't a gamble doesn't mean there isn't gambling in it tho

[dense wing]

you wont ever hit 0 cubes if you gacha efficiently

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

I can’t believe Azu NTRed me

[warm epoch]

[dense wing]

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

What.

[warm epoch]

What did azu do

[cosmic pier]

he did your normal greeting

you didnt reply

[warm epoch]

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

@stuck copper

[wintry sonnet]

I mean think of how lootboxes are considered gambling, you roll for a chance of getting something without knowing what you get and it may or may not be worth it

[warm epoch]

[ornate mantle]

I mean just by the 500 gems. You don’t have to spend them on Gacha components.

[wintry sonnet]

sure, but you dont have to spend VC in NBA on lootboxes either

you can also buy yourself a haircut

[ornate mantle]

You’re gonna need to use a reference I’m familiar with. Know nothing about how NBA works, lol.

[warm epoch]

haircut

[dense wing]

dw I see what u mean azu

[stuck copper]

spending money on a haircut. what a normie.

[warm epoch]

LOL

[ornate mantle]

Glad someone does. I might have phrased what I said wrong.

[wintry sonnet]

let's go with an example of league then. You can just play the game to unlock champions, you can play to unlock the keys and stuff to do the random gacha stuff to get some skins, you can also buy the skins directly

but you also have the option of buying the boxes that give you a random reward

so even tho there are things you can just pay and get right away, there are still elements of gamble you can do, right?

[dense wing]

no its just hard to explain

rather than phrasing it wrong

[wintry sonnet]

likewise in AL you can just play to get cubes and roll with those or you can buy yourself more with gems to get more chances to roll with

[dense wing]

its just kind of a normal thing u see it as

[wintry sonnet]

which let's be honest, it's a gacha, it's RNG so you're not guaranteed to get everything you want with just free cubes

no matter how good the chance is

[ornate mantle]

You have the option of doing that yes... but you have the option of not taking that “addicted to gambling” Route.

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

You can buy gems without it having to be used toward the Gacha aspect.
