Fighting games are absolutely meant to social. At the very least, FG players who are social actually keep playing the game for more than a month, generally.

How do you feel about the Amber stuff? Popular opinion seems to be that she was in the wrong, but Im not really sure I agree. I think Mark understood her issue, and it was a legitimate one, imo. Even with a good reason to hide it, of course it feels awful that it gets kept from you, especially after youve figured it out.

I'm not going to do a whole write up of it right now, but honestly I feel he lost the thread a bit with the last two books.

Maybe they are building towards something greater, but the conflicts and resolutions in them have largely felt pointless. The needle doesn't seem to shift much, and it seems he was repeating the same themes imo.
Im really iffy about starting RoW. Something Ive heard a lot about books closer to the middle of a series, say, books 3-6 in a 10 part series, is that they often drag their feet. Personally Ive heard the complaints about AFFC in ASOIAF, but I actually liked that book fine, so Im unsure if its a real thing, or just an excuse. Ive heard that Shallans multiple personalities dont leave, arguably becoming more prominent, which makes me even more unwilling.

Ill preface this to say that I actually did like most of Dalinars bits. Apparently this is considered his book, so I suppose it makes sense. Otherwise, I kinda felt like I didnt care about the other characters anymore, except Elkohar and Szeth. Elkohar, well, things went a bit poorly for him, but arguably it was done well, or well enough. Szeths whole thing was interesting enough, but they didnt really expand on the multiple issues with him being where he was at the end of the book. I would assume it gets addressed next book, but its a bit odd.

Kaladins mental struggle about both sides was interesting enough, but then I feel like it gets ignored, or just retreads the same ground. I get its hard to decide something like that in short order, but it wasnt interesting.

I couldnt stand Shallan in this book despite being fine with her in the previous two. The Veil and Radiant thing bugged me beyond belief. Maybe Im just being unfair, but I hated it so much. Im finding it difficult to say exactly what rubbed me the wrong way. Its possible that it was more accurate to mental health struggles then I realize, and Im just uncomfortable with it? Perhaps thats the case, but it doesnt make me like it.

The Kaladin/Shallan/Adolin love triangle thing sucked the whole time it was happening, and the ending (presumably) was also garbage. Adolin is an inoffensive character himself, but thats about the extent of it.

From what Ive typed in this topic, maybe I didnt hate this book, but the bad stuck with me much more than the good in this instance.

Yeah, that's not great. Since you've already accepted you probably won't go this route, but temp agencies can be pretty good. The vast majority of positions they have are temp-to-hire. Just something to consider. Congrats, though. 13 is way better than 0.
I was hoping for temp work, but the DMV is horrific, so getting my license, which makes Temp work more possible, wasn't a smooth process like it should have been. I'll accept the work I can get now. If I do things properly, I may be able to pivot into a better position. Worst comes to worst I can probably get a certification of some kind to boost myself even further.

2 positions in two different places. First interview I thought went pretty well, things seemed relaxed, while also getting my points across. It might have been about 20 minutes. I think I misspoke a few times, but it didn't seem brutal.

Second interview was like an hour and a hald. I think I wasn't getting my points across nearly as well, and with the increased amount of time, I misspoke way more than I had hoped. The ending felt okay, but I don't think it will come close to redeeming how the entire thing went.

In either case, I won't hear if I got the job for another 2 weeks or so, or so they say. I gotta say I'm not really confident in getting either, but I suppose all I can do is hope and wait. It's frustrating to be waiting so long for a chance, only to fear that I'll have fumbled. And who knows when I'll get another interview opportunity.

Define legit

I played in two college tournaments, placed second in one (SSB64) and won $50 to walmart (first prize was $100). Lost the second tourney (Brawl) in round 1 or 2 by a chaingrabbing scumbag, which is outlawed in "legit" tournaments, so I guess that means it wasn't really legit
Chaingrabbing isnt banned in tournament.
