2023.05.31 17:52 aaddictboiii I am making a chess game with a twist and I would like feedback
Hey everyone! I am trying to do a personal programming project and I have decided to program chess, but with a small twist to keep everything fresh. I need a bit of feedback and help with the idea, and hopefully once I make the project I will send an update post for you guys to try it out! The aim is to make chess a bit more fast paced.
Concept
In this chess game, every opponent piece you capture earns you points, which you can spend in the shop to upgrade your existing pieces. Each upgraded piece gains unique abilities, making gameplay a bit more interesting.
I would like your opinions, including in order to help me balance the game:
Point System:
Upgrade powers can be purchased from the shop before every turn. When a power is purchased, the chosen piece will be upgraded to have new powers.
Thanks all!

Concept
In this chess game, every opponent piece you capture earns you points, which you can spend in the shop to upgrade your existing pieces. Each upgraded piece gains unique abilities, making gameplay a bit more interesting.
I would like your opinions, including in order to help me balance the game:
- Do you think the point values for captures, promotions, and abilities are balanced?
- Is the reward for achieving checkmate (500 points) appropriate?
- Are there any additional abilities or upgrades you'd like to see in the game?
- Any other suggestions or feedback to improve the gameplay experience?
Point System:
- Capture an opponent's pawn: 50 points
- Capture an opponent's knight: 100 points
- Capture an opponent's bishop: 150 points
- Capture an opponent's rook: 200 points
- Capture an opponent's queen: 300 points
- Pawn Promotion: Earn 150 points for promoting a pawn to a higher-value piece.
- Checkmate: Earn 500 points, earned once per game (unsure about this one as it feels too much, what do you think? )
Upgrade powers can be purchased from the shop before every turn. When a power is purchased, the chosen piece will be upgraded to have new powers.
- Mega Pawn (150 points): Once you purchase the Mega Pawn ability, you can transform one of your pawns into a Mega Pawn. The Mega Pawn retains the regular pawn's forward movement but gains the ability to move one square backward, as well as diagonally to capture enemy pieces. This allows the Mega Pawn to have more flexibility in its movement, making it a formidable attacking piece.
- Dark Knight (200 points): Upgrading a knight into a Dark Knight grants it a shield. When the Dark Knight is attacked by an opponent's piece, the shield absorbs the hit, allowing the Dark Knight to remain on the board (and the attacking piece remains in place). After losing the shield, the Dark Knight can be captured by the enemy like any other piece. This ability enhances the knight's survivability and adds an extra layer of defense.
- Sneaky King (400 points): Upgrading your king into a Sneaky King grants it the ability to teleport once during the game to any unoccupied square on the board. This teleportation ability can be used strategically to escape threats, reposition the king to a safer location, or surprise your opponent with unexpected maneuvers.
- Fortress Rook (300 points): When you activate the Fortress ability of the Fortress Rook, it can protect an adjacent friendly piece from being captured. Once per game, any enemy piece attempting to capture the adjacent friendly piece will be unsuccessful. This ability provides a defensive advantage and allows you to safeguard important pieces.
- Bishop of light (250 points): When you upgrade your bishop into the Bishop of Light, your bishop retains its ability to move diagonally, but it gains an additional special power - the ability to swap places with one of your own pieces. This can only be used once.
- Queen: I am unsure what I can do with the queen as it is already a powerful enough piece, I would love to hear your suggestions!
Thanks all!
2023.05.31 17:19 LADelaney21 Wondering if my idea for a small business would be worth pursuing...
Hi! So I've been playing around with this idea for a while now and I just can't decide whether or not it'd be worth trying to achieve. My first job was at an ice cream shop, and the reason I left was mostly the manager (and insufferable customers but I realize I'll have to deal with that everywhere if I'm going to be in food service especially) but I LOVED making ice cream, I got so good at it, making it look beautiful, including ice cream cones, sundaes, ice cream sandwiches, ice cream pies, and ice cream cakes. My favorite part was making the ice cream sandwiches and packaging them. My idea is starting a little shop making ice cream sandwiches with different flavors of ice cream, different kinds of cookies, all sorts of combinations and toppings and stuff like that. I think it'd be fun to do a food truck even, and taking it to fairs around the state (NY) including the New York State Fair. Anyone have any thoughts on whether or not this would be worth it? I know I'd have to save up a lot to even afford the equipment I'd need, let alone a business space or food truck. I'd probably even have to take a course or two because I know close to nothing about starting/owning a business. But if it'd be a good way to make money and allow me to have a nice vacation over the winter, and do something I enjoy for the summer months...I kinda want to give it a shot. Thanks for any input!!

2023.05.31 11:58 dadcamebackwithcandy A Daughter and Wholesomeness (and Modern Fantasy)
Or: “Lysias, Father of Consequences”
Hi.
41/m looking for a SFW RP with fantasy elements where you’d play the daughter of my guy, either adopted or natural. I figure they would be meeting for the first time for some reason, and he’d be trying to figure out how to be a parent/better human while your OC works on being at all okay with this. The goal is character development, drama, sarcasm, humor, and super sappy heartwarming wholesomeness. The idea is that they’d need each other, and both would come out of their adventures as better people and a better family.
I write third person via Discord, anywhere between several paragraphs to set a scene and a few sentences for dialogue. I’m pretty easy going in general and ask you to be the same; the goal is to post as long as necessary, not meet some quota for how much entertainment we’re providing each other—I am genuinely looking for a writing partner, not to be someone’s GM.
My schedule is maybe 8pm-12pm the next day Central Time, as I work nights. My job provides a significant amount of downtime however, so regular posting in the evening or morning won’t be a problem. If you can post a few times a week, that would be lovely. More is of course great too.
Story ideas!
The actual dynamic and events of the story are way up for discussion. I love brainstorming and world building and trading off who leads the next scene based on who has the vision for it. That said, I do have a few different ideas for settings and stories and themes, and beyond character development we can do Adventure or Mystery or Slice of Life or all of them together. The writing sample below is from one of my feistier characters in a specific setting, and if it sounds interesting we go with that and modify as we felt like, or something completely new.
If you’re interested, let me know via chat or DM’s. Thanks for your time.
-Lysias
An old French song played from a small room behind the counter of the pawn shop. Lysias sang along with some slight skill, turning an old violin over in his hands. The late sunlight that filtered in caught on the pits and chips of worn lacquer like they were being graded by one of his old professors, highlighting the imperfections with supposed warmth that dimmed the excellence of the work, nevertheless. It was a fine violin, too: one of the few brought in that was actually worth fixing. The varnish would need to be stripped before he could do anything, of course, like rehydrating the wood or sealing it—a tedious process by anyone’s standard but his. After all, ruination rested within his every breath, just a heavy sigh away.
The Cuss walked with him. Lived with him. Breathed with him.
Ate at him. Stole from him. Marginalized. Vilified. Consoled. Condemned.
It lifted his spirits and diminished his joys, adding and subtracting the human experience until the sum of his life was zero; no highs, no lows, just a meaningless medium. The Cuss was parasite and partner both. He almost hated it when he had the energy to hate something.
Lysias raised a finger, a mote of darkness erasing a spot in the air above it. As small as the tear was, he could hear the music bending, the sounds of the busy street outside distorted by its presence, sounding like water sloshing in his ear. The lacquer of the violin was gone in a blink, and the Cuss was put away again, as much as some distant, broken part of him wanted to watch as it ran loose in the streets.
Those visions always came. He knew what it wanted, but eff what it wanted—it had more than enough of him as it was.
Turning for the sanding block, he saw the ad for New York Healing Institute he pulled from his mailbox. A few stand-out words were read over his scarlet-lensed glasses. “It’s never too late to learn!” He had thoughts about that. “NYHI has new scholarships and grants for the aspiring healer! Find us on the web at-“
It was ridiculous.
Besides, no one would have a thirty-something, self-taught, null-aspected mage anyway. Just being around other casters as they spoke or chanted or sang or drew or painted their magic was enough to unravel it sometimes, and that was without trying. If a caster actually came at him, it wasn’t even a fight; he didn’t have to say a word to cuss out their pretty sparks and flames, turning their power and years of study into less than a fizzled-out bottle rocket.
As long as they were within a few feet of him, of course.
And they weren’t a mind mage.
Or an illusionist.
…Fine maybe a few others, but generally, he could take care of himself.
Lowering the sanding block to his work, the abrasive scoured away the bare finish of the violin, leaving a brighter, healthier wood waiting just beneath. Soon, it would be ready to accept new polish and a new role. In fact, there was so little preparation left that it hardly took any effort at all to remove the last of the stains and give it a fresh start.
Green eyes flicked again to the article, to the propaganda and its ludicrous optimism.
It was ridiculous.
But still.
Still, he wondered if there were pretty sparks or fairy lights that could restore to him what the dark had devoured. To put the lacquer back. To seal his surface so he might weather life without the stains of every tear warping him, cracking the grain, giving unnatural life to maladies that grew into ruin and rot.
Lysias was wallowing of a fine state of melodrama when the door jingled. Yet another customer here to rudely interrupt his pity party. He was just about list every woman that had ever shot him down, too.
With a sigh, he pushed up his glasses and stepped out from the back in a black tee and jeans, the latter slightly more torn than the former. Neither went with his super-sexy $1,200 caiman cowboy boots, but that’s what the matching belt was for. The tarnished silver buckle though? With the giant “L” in 18k gold? That was just for him, and he offered no apologies or for it—fashion sense be damned.
He saw intruder—or customer, whatever—from the corner of his eye, focusing instead on straightening the bracelets in the display case before him, both magical and mundane. “Weeeeelcome to Arcane Pawn & Repair,” he drawled, monotone, “where we REpair, REstore, and REgret every decision that brought us here. What do you want?”

Local pawn shop has one LNIB with original box, two magazines, paperwork etc for $470. I've had my eye on these for awhile and based on my limited research I thought the price seemed like a solid deal, but wanted to ask you guys what you thought before I pulled the trigger.

2023.05.31 08:07 mvaughn7278 This one takes the cake?
Tell me I am not crazy. My husband had stage 4 throat cancer and we lost our business. As he was going thru treatment I was selling all of my possessions to feed and clothe my 14 year old son. All the whole my MIL had 10k in the bank and was stealing mementos for her husband (step to my husband) to buy lotto tickets. I asked her to take care of my son while I was I. Hospital caring for her son and she said no. Meanwhile people fro My business (pawn shop) we’re banging on my door terrorizing my son. While my husband was sick he would ask her to help with closing our business and she’d yell and scream she didn’t have time and didn’t want too even though it was her business too. Fast forward 10 years her husband committed suicide and now we took her on. She yells and screams at any little thing you ask her to do like clean her room. I am at wits end. I cook and clean after her. Drive her to drs drive her everywhere. She is so inconsiderate to what I do everyday. Right now it’s either she goes to a senior home or I am gone. What do you think?

2023.05.31 07:21 Outrageous-River3744 My mom is engaged and I'm not happy for her
My (17/F) bio mom (47/F) has informed me that her and her now fiancé (35/M) are engaged as of Saturday night, and I'm not happy for her.
My mom cheated on my dad with multiple men and she was very narcissistic and me and my dad were her victims. My dad stayed married to her because he didn't trust her to raise me if they divorced while I was young so he stayed married to her unhappily for 9 more years because he didn't want to lose me because of her. In February of 2021, she couldn't choose other men over her marriage and me so she left and abandoned me. She would still text me, but it'd be very short and dry because I didn't know what to say. I don't know why, but the part of me that wanted validation from my mother tried everything to get her approval. She made a Tinder account for me and sent photos of me to different men because she said I needed to "get back out there and get over my ex." After some heated going back and forth, she deleted the account. I stopped going to her house in July of 2021 because I was just done with her and I've been living with my dad full time ever since then the divorce was final.
She started dating her now fiancé in February of 2022 and took on the stepmother role of his 9 year old daughter, which hurts me because she's loving and nurturing to her, but she never was loving and nurturing to me. In the time I haven't seen her, it's either heated arguments over text about the fact that she's not a changed person and I don't need/deserve her negativity because she's jealous that I want to live with my dad and stepmom. She doesn't send me birthday gifts, Christmas gifts, nothing. My dad hates this because he told me that if the roles were reversed and I wanted nothing to do with him, he'd send me a birthday present and Christmas present because I'm still his kid.
Her fiancé seems like an okay guy, but something that creeps me out is that he's seen photos of me and said, "oh, my god, she's SUCH a beauty" I don't know, but that gives me the creeps. I admit, I'm pretty good looking: 5 foot 5, nice teeth, nose piercing, beautiful hair and eyes, the whole package, but a comment like that from a 35 year old man just creeps me out. I thought about meeting him, but I never wanted to because I never felt comfortable enough to see him in person due to the vibe I get from him just from the photos of him my mom's sent me.
She sent me a photo of the ring and it looks fake, not gonna lie. My dad commented that it looked like a ring he got her years ago, but isn't the exact ring. My stepmom said it looked like it was from a pawn shop.
I was talking to my paternal grandma Saturday afternoon and we were talking about how if my mom marries this guy, her true colors are going to come out if they haven't already and literally a few hours later, I get informed that my mom's engaged, so I texted my grandma and said, "so this happened, what a coincidence, am I right?" We started talking about it a little bit and I half jokingly half seriously said that for a wedding present, I'd gift her a book on cheating and abandoning children and my grandma said "you are definitely my granddaughter," then she said, "I'll bring the black paint to decorate her heart." We laughed about it a little bit and my best friend called me to check on me since she was with me when I got the message and she asked if I was going to tell my mom how I felt about this, and I said, "No, I'm not gonna mess with this. They're adults, and they can do what they want. I have to be the bigger person and let nature run its course. Does it suck? Yes, but what can I do about it?"
I'm not happy because after the pain she's caused to a lot of people, I feel like she doesn't deserve to have this happiness. If anything, I'm worried for her fiancé's daughter because she's only 9 years old, and if my mom shows her true colors, his daughter is going to get hurt and probably never come back from it. I thought about getting his number and telling him all my mom's done, but I didn't do it because he's a grown ass man, he can do what he wants and date/marry who he wants, and if he finds out the hard way, I guess he finds out the hard way. I told my dad this and he told me I should let her fiancé figure it out himself and let him come up with what to do regarding his daughter's safety.

My mom cheated on my dad with multiple men and she was very narcissistic and me and my dad were her victims. My dad stayed married to her because he didn't trust her to raise me if they divorced while I was young so he stayed married to her unhappily for 9 more years because he didn't want to lose me because of her. In February of 2021, she couldn't choose other men over her marriage and me so she left and abandoned me. She would still text me, but it'd be very short and dry because I didn't know what to say. I don't know why, but the part of me that wanted validation from my mother tried everything to get her approval. She made a Tinder account for me and sent photos of me to different men because she said I needed to "get back out there and get over my ex." After some heated going back and forth, she deleted the account. I stopped going to her house in July of 2021 because I was just done with her and I've been living with my dad full time ever since then the divorce was final.
She started dating her now fiancé in February of 2022 and took on the stepmother role of his 9 year old daughter, which hurts me because she's loving and nurturing to her, but she never was loving and nurturing to me. In the time I haven't seen her, it's either heated arguments over text about the fact that she's not a changed person and I don't need/deserve her negativity because she's jealous that I want to live with my dad and stepmom. She doesn't send me birthday gifts, Christmas gifts, nothing. My dad hates this because he told me that if the roles were reversed and I wanted nothing to do with him, he'd send me a birthday present and Christmas present because I'm still his kid.
Her fiancé seems like an okay guy, but something that creeps me out is that he's seen photos of me and said, "oh, my god, she's SUCH a beauty" I don't know, but that gives me the creeps. I admit, I'm pretty good looking: 5 foot 5, nice teeth, nose piercing, beautiful hair and eyes, the whole package, but a comment like that from a 35 year old man just creeps me out. I thought about meeting him, but I never wanted to because I never felt comfortable enough to see him in person due to the vibe I get from him just from the photos of him my mom's sent me.
She sent me a photo of the ring and it looks fake, not gonna lie. My dad commented that it looked like a ring he got her years ago, but isn't the exact ring. My stepmom said it looked like it was from a pawn shop.
I was talking to my paternal grandma Saturday afternoon and we were talking about how if my mom marries this guy, her true colors are going to come out if they haven't already and literally a few hours later, I get informed that my mom's engaged, so I texted my grandma and said, "so this happened, what a coincidence, am I right?" We started talking about it a little bit and I half jokingly half seriously said that for a wedding present, I'd gift her a book on cheating and abandoning children and my grandma said "you are definitely my granddaughter," then she said, "I'll bring the black paint to decorate her heart."

2023.05.31 05:39 AdditionalRegular0 Help!!
Hey everyone! A while back I was randomly recommended a Sims2 GBA video on YouTube. The video talked about how tedious it was to make money.. and talked about some item at the pawn shop you could buy for a ridiculous price. I have decided months later to give this a shot.. buy the item! I have searched EVERYWHERE for this video and cannot find it…..
Does anyone know this “expensive item” from the pawn shop? What is it? How much does it cost?

2023.05.31 04:32 hawkalugie Sold a gun to a pawn shop not knowing it was stolen
So this happened in NC, I bought a rifle in a private sale, totally legal in NC and pawned it about 2 weeks later a detective called me to inform me it had been reported stolen 7 years ago. I feel like the right thing to do is pay the shop back because I didn't do my due diligence in acquiring the firearm but was told pawn shops assume the risk. Am I obligated to pay it back? This is a moral dilemma because I know pawn shops prey on people in bad spots. However, i still feel like the burden is on me. The pawn shop called me about 3 months after the fact and thew out some vague threats such as "I'd hate to make trouble for you." I'd love some insight. TIA!

2023.05.31 04:29 Hot_Recognition1798 Mando upgrade recommendations
 | Title says it... I recently woke up from an opioid addiction that lasted 7 years and saw me sell everything but my great grandmas J45... Everything else in the picture is hardware I have bought in the last few months. Been a guitar player for 20 years. Picked up the mandolin 3 months ago and love it. I wouldnt trade it for anything. Its an Oskar Schmidt, 100$ pawn shop job. I have my chords and basics but can start to see its limitations. submitted by Hot_Recognition1798 to mandolin [link] [comments] My question to you guys is: What, if anything would be a solid upgrade for 250-350$? Or should I stick to what I have for now until I can save more? It really is my number one instrument, maybe bc I am still on that learning curve where it is all new and exciting. Thank you and what an instrument we have. Those dewey, jangly strings get to my soul for some reason https://preview.redd.it/t8m6odbnd43b1.jpg?width=4160&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d27fe8ac0217e34fe3b7b1b1c78b951b83a847e4 |
2023.05.31 04:12 roadrage214 Selling Cold War Era CDV 700 Geiger counters
I have some functional Cold War era CDV 700 Geiger counters that I would like to sell, but I am not sure the best way to do so. Does anyone have some tips on where I could sell these? I would prefer that they don’t go to a scrap yard or pawn shop, as that seems like a waste of history.
