Reapers, Glitterbeards and Forts – More Adventures on the Stormcloud

August 23, 2022August 17, 2022 Medic 0 Comments fun, glitterbeard, sea of thieves, stormcloud

It’s always fun being on a big ship with plenty of cannons. 4-player Galleons are big and tanky and somewhat threatening, especially to other ships. In this session though, the plan wasn’t to reap and tear. Instead, we were playing as emissaries for the Gold Hoarders, in order to help me reach level 50 and become a Pirate Legend. Luckily this wasn’t too hard to do. We ended up doing some vaults… well, the same vault 3 times, making lots of gold. As we sailed though, we did meet a very aggressive sloop. Luckily they were no threat to us.… [Continue Reading]

On Becoming A Pirate Legend

August 22, 2022August 22, 2022 Medic 0 Comments pirate legend, sea of thieves

Sea of Thieves doesn’t really have much of an obvious end goal. There is a LOT to unlock, but as a final goal, it’s mostly just getting huge amounts of money and infamy. That and hunting down emissaries to kill them. However, before we talk about end game stuff, there’s a specific rank that you need to acquire, before you do anything too interesting. I’m talking about being a Pirate Legend, and finding myself deeper inside SoT lore. When I first started playing Sea of Thieves, I thought it’d take a while to become a Pirate Legend. After all, with… [Continue Reading]

A Thunderbirds Board Game

August 21, 2022August 16, 2022 Medic 0 Comments board game, nostalgia, relic of the past, thunderbirds

When I was a rather small kid, one of the TV shows we used to watch was Thunderbirds. This show was made using various puppets, rather than being animated as a normal cartoon. The premise of Thunderbirds was quite simple. A family called the Tracies ran International Rescue, and would go on adventures. There were six Tracies, the dad and five sons, all of whom had some pretty fucking cool aircraft, as well as a satellite in space, ran by the eldest kid, John Tracy. Everything in this show was animated with puppets and physical models, which were all pretty… [Continue Reading]

Lures in Pokemon GO Make No Sense

August 20, 2022August 15, 2022 Medic 1 Comment lure, pokemon go

During the last Community Day with Zigzagoon, my brother and I put down some lures, in the hopes of producing more spawns. We were chilling out in an ice cream place at the time, and the three closest Pokestops were all lured. Because it was a Community Day, those lures would all last 3 hours each, sticking around for a long time after we finished up and left. As we left though, I looked back at the lured Pokestops and realized that luring those Pokestops made no sense. Most spawns are wasted. The place where we left the lures was… [Continue Reading]

Happy 9th Birthday to the Daily SPUF!

August 18, 2022August 11, 2022 Medic 1 Comment birthday, daily spuf, SPUF

As you may have guessed from the title of this article, today is the Daily SPUF’s birthday! Normally, we don’t actually celebrate the Daily SPUF’s age. Instead we generally write about milestones, like the 3000th article. But since this website is now nine years old, we thought we’d celebrate today as well. After all, you can only turn nine years old once. On August 18th, 2013, aabicus posted his first article about the Half-Zatoichi. In it, he explained why he hated this weapon for Soldier and Demoman. Little did aabicus know that he had started sometime great. Over a month… [Continue Reading]

Bring Back Fortuna 69, the Nicest Place in Warframe

August 17, 2022August 12, 2022 Medic 2 Comments fortuna, fortuna 69, warframe

It turns out, when you stop playing Warframe for a bit, you miss out on a few things. But for me, I missed out on something not so nice. It turns out, three months ago, the Fortuna 69 had disappeared! For those of you who don’t remember, Fortuna 69 is an instance that had been kept up and alive while all other Fortuna instances (aside from 1) faded away. Fortuna 69 was kept open by the community, with all sorts of people visiting and AFKing within the instance, stopping it from shutting down and closing. With a team of Tenno… [Continue Reading]

The Problem of Boom-Kong and High Explosives

August 16, 2022August 10, 2022 Medic 0 Comments bramma, explosions, warframe, wukong

Ever since self-damage was removed from explosive weapons, these explosive weapons have rocketed in popularity. But are these weapons too good or powerful? Some people think so, others don’t. As for me, I am someone in the middle. So let’s have a nice, calm conversation about explosives. And a familiar monkey friend. AoE weapons are very strong Warframe is a horde shooter. You have to kill a lot of enemies to get anywhere in this game, whether it’s a simple rescue mission or an hours-long survival. And rather than killing enemies one at a time, it’s much more efficient to… [Continue Reading]

Animal Instinct – A Valuable Mod

August 15, 2022August 9, 2022 Medic 0 Comments enemy radar, instinct, khora, loot radar, mod, venari, warframe

There are many, many mods in Warframe. Mods for Warframes, mods for weapons, mods for your companions. Including cats and dogs. I don’t know where we store the mods we equip on our living companions, but they can use them nonetheless. However, many mods are also kinda useless. They’re either niche or just impractical. And because there is limited space, some mods have to be left out. Today, I want to talk about the one mod I 100% can’t leave out from my companions’ mods. A required mods for pets Animal Instinct is a Nightmare mod, obtainable from high level… [Continue Reading]

Galarian Zigzagoon Community Day

August 14, 2022August 13, 2022 Medic 0 Comments galar, pokemon go, pokemon home, zigzagoon

August’s Community Day this year was Galarian Zigzagoon, an utterly adorable Pokemon. I mean, look at it. It’s like a little punk racoon thing. How can you not love something like that? It’s so adorable, and it’s a pretty nice choice for a Community Day. Even if, like Deino, getting a shiny one used to be rare and now everyone has one. A great shiny with some use. While Obstagoon may not be as useful as Deino was from this year’s previous Community Day, it’s still a dark type that has a nice niche. It’s also a really nice shiny,… [Continue Reading]

Team Yell are my favourite team for some reason

August 13, 2022August 7, 2022 Medic 0 Comments oi prick, pokemon shield, team yell

The more I think about Pokemon, the more predictable things get. Really, Pokemon is so formulaic that sometimes I wonder how it’s remained so popular over the years. On the plus side, it being so popular means that I can write a ton of articles about it. Heck, it’s pretty much impossible to write about everything in Pokemon games. Especially when it comes to opinions. Opinions are infinite. Everyone has them. Even though some opinions are kinda weird. A bit like this article, where I claim that Team Yell are my favourite team. Their objective is simple Many evil teams… [Continue Reading]
