Sithicus

I was just wondering what you guys thought about last night's patch? Overall I think there have been a lot of interesting changes. I especially like what they have done with Fractals. I really like that you can do one of the Daily Fractals (i.e. yesterday was Snowblind, Urban Battleground and Dredge) on a difficulty above 75 and then get the rewards for all 4 tiers of that daily at once! I like the reinvigoration of HoT maps, especially the way that more keys seem to be given out now, so you aren't spending currency on keys to unlock chests and finding it a chore to save up lots of currency for the various items you have to buy. Dungeons too, the token rewards are much better, and the new type of Dungeon Master achievement is a good way to incentivize more people to run dungeon paths. At the moment I'm trying to run as much Caudecus Manor and Arah as possible in order to finish those Dungeon collections for the Ascended accessories. So what things did you all like? Or dislike for that matter?

Much to my disappointment, chat bubbles don't seem to show up at least for me, but I ran up behind Never Dont Give Up after Naked Tequatl on the 16th and Titanic'd him! And this one was a dance party at the Early Wurm (Cobalt) as the day began on Sunday 17th, moments before we were downed by gooey hell, you can see the small spin winding up

Fashion show aftermath dance party!

The Snowpeople cometh... (taken at the finish line of one of the tonic races :D)

Oh wow she is so beautiful, how old is she?

You have one sweet pup there @chaosdog

Cool game, I gift you this Dominos Bike The way I did it was by looking at the colour of the pavement in your picture, and the angle of the pavement with relation to the camera to try and narrow it down, this is a really cool test! And I raise you a green themed Italian Café!

11/10 for originality, welcome to the OC

Amazing, I am almost sure that that is a Reeves's Pheasant

Welcome to the OC and welcome back to GW2 Final Fantasy, Mass Effect, Star Wars, you have excellent taste

Oh I can't believe I missed your intro, normally when someone mentions Mass Effect or Dragon Age my ears prick up and I start talking endlessly about what choices you made and why and I love these gaaaames Welcome and I hope you're having a nice time with us

Aaaaaaaaah the caaaatssssss

Wow you are amazing at this! I think deep down Oscar is happy to have a little companion

Bump, give me CUTES

I enjoy seeing other people's characters, because there's a rich tapestry of reasons why people make them the way they do I suppose the one I like the most out of mine at the moment is my Dr00d, that likes quite Dr00d-y

Hi there! First of all I really like those containers, the designs in the circular pieces look really nice, at first glance they actually remind me of the Medallions from Zelda Ocarina of Time I have some limited experience with 3D printing. I work as a PhD student in Mechanical Engineering, and you can get most things made by Technicians so long as you submit good quality drawings etc. I have had some parts made via Additive Manufacturing before now, however the way I created my models was via CAD software called CATIA, and you can export models as different file formats, and one of those is compatible with the software for the 3D printers. The technician can then open the file, and then create a "job" with the 3D printer where you can have lots of things printing at one time over the allowable surface area of the printing area, and that tends to get left on overnight because as you say some things take quite a long time. Now the thing is with this, programs like CATIA are *very* strict about the integrity of models, so the kind of tricks you mentioned to make things easier probably wouldn't be possible in CATIA, so if you had a model you were happy with in software like CATIA you'd probably be able to export the model as a file compatible with 3D printer software and then be able to do it. However, I imagine CATIA isn't an ideal program to use for something related to 3D design, it's very rooted in Engineering stuff. Anyway hopefully this is helpful in some way, and I hope you get to print some stuff, as well as getting to print the things you mentioned first too

My "family" name for characters I suppose you could say is/has been Dias for as long as I can remember. Guild Wars 1 was my first MMO and I mained a Warrior called Sithicus Dias there too. I can't remember exactly how I came up with Sithicus, but I liked the way it sounded almost Ancient Greek (PerseUS, OdysseUS, CephalUS, TheseUS... SithicUS? :D). Dias however is the modern Greek name for Zeus, and it also seems to roll off the tongue really nicely as a second name. Other than those, I sometimes steal inspiration for character names from the Fire Emblem series, such as the names Rath and Tharja

Bravo, they are really great

Heya, I played DSII Scholar version and really enjoyed it, I think I completed NG+1 and stopped, kind of waiting for DSIII now which is like a month and a bit away if I recall. You can add me on Steam though if you like and we could play a bit some time. You should be able to find me on Steam as Sithicus, if not try shadow39365
