The Zero Dilemma [dltms0 - June Edition]

OOTP is for those who literally eat, sleep, and breathe baseball roster management.

This is either the best or the worst elevator pitch.

34.

How about something for those who literally just eat and sleep.

The micromanaging aspect of OOTP is exactly what made me take the punt on it. I'm approaching my 13th or 14th iteration of Football Manager, have played some Championship Manager (both before and after the split with Football Manager), some Eastside Hockey as well as city/themepark/civilisation builders which are very comparable in some regards.

Risk was that I'm at best a casual baseball fan. Didn't grow up with it, my knowledge of strategic nuances and the general world of baseball are minimal. That will mean lots of trial and error, and if anything does I imagine it will be the thing that makes me stop playing. Suppose that thing might be Football Manager 2018 too, that comes out in November.

36. I won't be able to sleep tonight, due to weirdness in the ol noggin.
Feel like my head went through a mincer.

I felt like that too yesterday after work, so glad it's the weekend now so I can chill a bit. :3

38. I wish I was more myself around people...
hell, haven't been this awkward in many years.

I had a Red bull for the first time in my life today.

Not only did I not attain wings, but I felt absolutely nothing. Not even a mild buzz. I drink a lot of caffeine and I have to say, I have never felt the extra energy or boosts in cognitive faculties like reaction time that are associated with the substance.

Also, it tasted like Mountain Dew.

0/10, would not have consumed if it were not free.

 

[noa]

Energy drinks are so awful. It's amazing how people will drink them without a second thought.

41

I have literally never had a second thought in my entire life.

Doubt is for the weak.

 

[noa]

42. Pls stop :(

Meanwhile, I generally _don't_ drink caffeine (in one of the top coffee drinking countries out there), and am less inclined to so much as try energy drinks.

I haven't had Red Bull since I was about 14 and attending one of those kid RAVES. You bet I stuck my fingers up in a photo.

Quite like pink lemonade Lucozade. Don't think it has as much caffeine as the small canned energy drinks but even if it does I don't really care, it's nice.

Unsurprisingly most of my caffeine comes for tea.

45. I had something like a year where Monster was my primary caffeine source, working a labor-intensive job. Now I get my caffeine primarily from Dr Pepper.

46

I've never had an energy drink, all my caffeine comes from coffee. I and my colleagues are used to drinking one before starting to work, it gives me energy. :)

I'm honestly not a fan of most soft drinks.

Except this amazing grapefruit soda thing called 'Ting'.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmMMMM

I love Fentimans dandelion and burdock so much, I just wish it wasn't so expensive.

Granted I could probably afford it more often if I quit the whisky thing.

Bowow. I couldn't justify spending that much money on something that turns my stomach into an acidic supernova.

 

[lloebet]

I like coffee energy drinks :}
