Plumbers Crack got a reaction from IRaMPaGe in What car do you have?

Plumbers Crack reacted to GazzaGarratt in UK 2021 Census
You have to do it by law. Its basic national statistical data which each household completes every 10 years. I think you will have a very small amount of people exempt from this due to the nature of their job that allows them not to respond.

There's a special magic when you're deep in a cave system, and your flares finally die down. Just you, a gunner, and your buddy, an engineer, frantically finishing off some pipes going to a pump. The blackness is lit only by the red glare of the searchlights on your engineer's sentry guns, swinging over the empty tunnel ahead. Nothing. Then a noise, and the searchlight swings back, revealing a horde of alien bugs crawling on the walls and ceiling towards the two hapless dwarves in their territory.
"Rock and stone", you mutter under your breath as your minigun starts to spool up.
--------
Deep Rock Galactic is a team based shooter/survival game featuring dwarves in space. A game where you go America on alien biomes to pump out a load of liquid ore. A game where everyone frantically tries runs rings around a massive beastly boss that is very angry at you. A game where you can drink beer and dance during downtime in between missions. A game where, sometimes, you might just have to leave people behind to the alien hordes.
I picked this up last week and quite honestly, I did not expect to like it (or play it) as much as I have. It's a fantastically well done game, from the ambiance of pooting a flare through a massive cavern to reveal aliens and/or minerals in the moving pool of light, to the synergy between classes and their abillities but yet still balanced enough that you could go ham with a team full of gunners and still get the job done.
There are four classes in Deep Rock; Gunner, Engineer, Scout and Digger. There's miniguns, flamethrowers, slow time grenades, zipline launchers, platform launchers, sticky flares, and tons more. Certain classes and equipment can complement others, such as the Engineer with the platform launcher and the Gunner with the zipline launcher if there was a huge chasm to traverse.
There's perks to unlock to use across your classes, equipment to unlock specific to classes, clothes and beards (literally) to unlock; plenty to keep you going!
Also the beards have physics.

Deep Rock Galactic is 35% off at the time of writing, until Sunday 14th!

Murph has been explained to me. He can't honestly remember his best time as it was 6 or 7 years ago but it was sub 1 hour.
His latest challenge with some friends is a 4 mile run every 4 hours for 48 hours and no cheating running 8 miles and having longer recovery...every run starts exactly 4 hours after the previous run started! Madness!

Name: Mead Hall Patio
Location: FG Server, Home Base
So after @RenFengge was tending to the pigs at home base and we were attacked AGAIN by two trolls, we decided to up the defenses. The trolls did a number on the pig pens and let some out. We had some stone built up from @FallenDark200 moat building spree so we started building. It's not done by a mile but it's better, La went and worked on the pens and I built the patio between the hall and the main original base. It was all nasty from the construction of the hall so it's all nice now. Planted a few big firs for the lolz and started a few bon fires.
Next on the list:
Finishing the dock with 3-4 slips, as you can see, I've started construction Terracing the rear or the base with large stone planters Extending the defenses on the shore side of the hall and around the back, these little greyling fuckwits keep getting in Community build event to revamp the main base? The interior needs some sprucing up with our more advanced skills Clean up the transition areas between buildings and make it nice for any new FG member who arrives Maybe extend the base out to the main alter? It's close enough

3/8/2021 Workout
5 Rounds:
12 dumb bell squat cleans (45lb pair) 250m row
Bonus:
8 Rounds:
Tabata Push-ups
Thoughts: Sometimes, I wonder if my coaches are trying to throw me off my game. I walked in, then was told to go to a different square.. more... inside the class as opposed to my square that is on the outskirts.
I thought to myself before walking in, "This should be fine. It's a good workout. I hate cardio, but there's lifting... and we don't have to go heavy. Maybe like, 15lb pair. Pure cardio. Right? My traps are sore anyway. And, it was a high-carb day yesterday."
Then, Coach Liz puts me in a different box. I said, "You mean the other box right? My second usual box?" I said this as I saw a lighter weight in the other box lol.
She said, "Nope. You're in the front left box today."
Mmkay. Maybe we'll just change the weights later? After the warm up?
Did the warm up, which I always laugh about because it's a workout in itself. Then, she was checking in on everyone with weights. Coach James was working out with us this morning and was in the box in front of me. Coach Liz said, "Everyone good with weights?" She looks at me.
I said, "Maybe something lighter?"
Coach Liz and Coach James paused and stared. Coach James said, "See. The problem with going to the squat workshops is that now everyone knows you can squat over 250lbs... and we've seen you squat clean at least 145lbs when you've dropped the bar on Saturdays."
Coach Liz, "Go lighter, she says. Hah! Such a joker over there."
Me, "But... hopes and dreams? And.. cardio?"
So, did the workout. Really hated all the cardio while I was doing it. But, still glad I did it. When I did my final pull on the rower, I unstrapped my feet and just plopped on the floor, gasping for air.
But, the fun didn't stop! Because, TABATA push-ups for 8 rounds.
Last time we did it, I didn't necessarily understand why people rested face down on the floor. Oh, I totally did this time. My goal was to do 7 - 8 pushups each round... Helps me just not quit. My upper body is a bit toast today.
We cooled down, sterilized everything, and went on home. I walked out the door and saw basically the perfect emoji for today's workout. Some apathy mixed with some tears and a slight relief of getting it done.

Plumbers Crack reacted to RenFengge in FG Server - Maps by RenFengge
I think we've officially gotten far enough into the game where exploration is a lot for one person... while I also like to do some other random things!
Notes:
2 new portals: 1 at @Tar-Eruntalion 's Base; 1 at the place I call Despair If you go to the Portal of Despair, you will probably find a bunch of random stuff everywhere... as I went with the boat, but also did not have space to pick up everything from defending myself. Enjoy the treasure? Next Boss is Bone Mass, and it is south in a Swamp Biome. My focus on the next times I'm in the game will be major exploring, and less "housekeeping" (e.g., feeding pigs, farming, refilling torches)

Name: Vault Patio
Location: FG Server, Vault
So I may have replaced the walls and created a patio at the Vault. I feel like @GazzaGarratt did such a nice job on the dock, it needed a long boat, patio, and outdoor seating/bonfire arrangements. So as @FallenDark200 found his newly discovered tree clearing and moat digging ability, I was working on the patio. I think it came out just fine. I was getting tired of the front of rear of this base looking like poop. OOO and I added a dew flower beds for planting things!!! Thanks @RenFengge for fixing my planters as I was creating, looking top notch now!
