Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Never mind, guys. I already checked all of your profiles, and all of you actually also have a games list, except for @bimmy-lee, which is then also kind of strange, because now he's the only one who does NOT have a games list...

@ThanosReXXX - It can only mean one thing: I’m the hacker. By the way, I think you were a bit harsh with your rating on Bratz: Forever Diamondz. It was easily an eight in my book.

Yeah, us lefties are from the school of hard knocks. Whatever we have, we’ve earned it.

@Tyranexx - Well, snow is now a possibility this weekend in the extended forecast. I blame us, with all this spring and yard work talk, we jinxed ourselves. Dang it!

@NintendoByNature @HobbitGamer - I got an early jump on things, and I’ll probably be wrapped up or darn close in about an hour. That’s 9:30ish for me and Hobbit, and 8:30 for NBN I believe.

@bimmy-lee as long as my little guy is zonked im in at 830 central.

@ThanosReXXX I feel no pain or distress (not like our forebears....Some of those histories are interesting, though some of that has to do with how hygiene worked way back when), just minor annoyance at times. You mentioned using scissors backwards; I have issues with less sharp scissors not working for me at all. Then there are how some doorknobs are oriented, handshake adaptation (this is second nature now, just needed practice), ink smudging, accidental elbowing....I have a disclaimer when I have to sit next to a rightie: "You may or may not get elbowed".

Yep, I use the Games List feature here. It's a good way to keep track of most of my Nintendo library. Any games without ratings on my profile are games I either haven't played yet, or else haven't played to the point where I feel like I can sufficiently rate them.

On the mysterious game ratings: unless there was a significant hack on the website, I'd say it's more likely that some database IDs might be a little switched around. That's one cause of odd issues like that.

Edit: Holy cow, it's like your account has rated the whole GCN library....

@bimmy-lee Yep, there's a chance of rain/snow here on Saturday. I doubt it'll amount to anything other than some dreary weather and MAYBE a trace of snow in shaded areas that aren't concrete. Then it'll melt/be rained away.

Are weighted blankets actually good for anxiety?
They don't sell those in my country (...yet?), but I heard of it online and got curious haha.

@bimmy-lee @NintendoByNature
Arena; ChitChatters

@ThanosReXXX I've seen enough database screw ups, that I think your profile likely ended up pointing to all those games by accident. I've seen stuff like that happen at work. Can't hurt to change your password. But hacking just to add games to your games page, and add or score that many games, doesn't make any sense for hacking. Probably was a database error, or human error managing the Nintendolife site and it's accounts database.

@Vinny I don't know about helping with anxiety, but I personally like heavy blankets. I will actually turn off the heat in winter before I take off a blanket if I'm trying to sleep. Something about the weight makes me feel more relaxed and safer at night.

@hobbitgamer @bimmy-Lee had fun guys

@NintendoByNature - Yep, that was fun. I think everyone got one. Good gaming with ya’s.

@Vinny - My wife has one and loves it. She has trouble sleeping and has restless legs. I don’t care for it, but if you like to feel all snuggled in, and like it toasty warm; a weighted blanket will do the trick. My daughter has one, and she calls it her hug blanket. It kind of makes you feel like the little spoon.

@NintendoByNature @bimmy-lee So fun, I was dying laughing a few times!

@Heavyarms55 I like heavier blankets and quilts, too. My neck and hands do better when I sleep on my back, and a hefty blanket tends to keep me from rolling to the side and pulling a fetal crunch. In fact, it’s kind of like a mortuary with the cold air, blanket stopping above the sternum, arms at sides, and neck stretched out. I’m dead asleep.

@ThanosReXXX I’ve not checked out my profile stuff yet, but I’ll get to it tomorrow.

So, there were three people in the past couple weeks posting new threads saying, they can't turn on voice chat in Fortnite. Out of curiousity, I redowloaded Fortnite, downloaded the Switch parental controls app. I recreated the issue, and I believe I solved it. I tagged those three people with the solution, and was really looking forward to hearing if it worked for them,.... and it's been silence haha. Tonight will be the second night without hearing from them. I thought for sure I'd get some feedback by now? Sigh They probably have lives. Life happens. But I'm dying to hear if it fixes the common issue.

@Woomy_NNYes Good on you for trying it out, but odds are they’re never going to see it again. But you did earn your NL Ranger Epic support badge, so there’s something.

Prednisone withdrawal symptoms are awful. I need to sleep, but I’m not tired. I don’t keep books and toys in my bedroom, since it’s for sleeping. I don’t want to grab a Switch, because then it will be in here. I made so many boredom noises into my bedstand fan that big dog got annoyed and wandered out. 😂

@HobbitGamer Every once in a while I use liquid Benedryl to help get to sleep. I get childrens liquid benedryl so I can take half or one quarter doses for allergies. so it doesn't knock me out. Granted, everyone knows benedryl can do that. Just saying it in case you hadn't thought of it tonight. A half or 3/4 dose can be enough to help me get to sleep.

@bimmy-lee @HobbitGamer hahaah I know. I Think the real knee slapper was my first match completely forgetting how to play. All i did was jump aimlessly like Reggie. I got my bearings back after a few minutes tho 😂. I definitely looked rough.

In my defense that was my first match in 6 mos roughly

@Woomy_NNYes Yeah, I keep the no dye around for outdoor work. But if I take it too late and sleep, then either I get a weird dream or I’m groggy in the morning. I’ve got weekly billing cycle spooling up in 6 1/2 hours, so I don’t want to be groggy. And, abnormally, I already had a weird dream during a nap today. It was awful, and I’m glad I remembered most of it for everyone;

I was trying to chase my small dog out back to do something, but I had a stomachache. At some point I spoiled myself, and ran to the bathroom to shower off. But I couldn’t get my pants off, and when I attempted to grab a towel they were all together like a magician’s kerchief. The entire struggle, I’m continuing to soil myself and becoming suffocated by clean towels.

I awoke to find I was sleeping on my stomach, and my cat was laying on my back, kneading on my butt.

@NintendobyNature Yeah I’m going to take your advice there. My butt is being handed to me by this guy. Probably my biggest issue with the game is the lack of any healing items to collect. I sort of understand why they did it because perhaps it would’ve made the game too easy, but it slows down the pace of the game when you need to go back to the hub area to buy stuff with gold all the time. Seems like a more elegant solution was available (healing charges or merchants who sell items in select areas) than what they chose here. I’m determined to get this guy today though.

@ThanosReXXX Well that explains it. I didn’t notice any unusual games on my profile. Not yet at least. I actually did play that GameCube game based on the Universal Theme Park listed on my game page, so I assume I put it there.

@NotTelevision yep. He's a real jerk. And I second the healing items. I would craft foods but it was never good enough or had enough for boss fights. Don't be stubborn like me, level Mariam up before you head back in lol.

@WaffleKnight Gosh darn it, every time I see you pop up in a comment section if makes me crave waffles!

@Heavyarms55 Ohhh I could totally go for a stack of chocolate chip waffles and bacon. Now I’m hungry too.
