I heart being privileged to care for people in the moments leading to their death; it continues to be a profound experience to witness the resilience of the human spirit in the face of suffering.
I heart being privileged to work with junior colleagues who are reliable and cheerful in the face of challenging circumstances.
I heart living next to the ocean.
edit: I also heart this song, as strange as the lyrics are:
If I had any criticism at all for the event its that I couldn't really figure out how to get stuck in, so I just watched others from the sidelines. It seemed really neat though. (It probably wasn't too hard though, I'm just blonde as hell sometimes)
I both hate and heart that sinking feeling in your chest when you finish reading/watching something you got really immersed in, knowing you'll never be able to experience that world again for the first time.
The wheel really is a "true" gambling promo I think. If you like gambling and you like trinkets, fun and worth it, but unless you are super lucky, or who knows, possibly super smart (some of the repeated wins are just uncanny, but really, are probably just luck), I don't think I'd be expecting to break even in absolute terms, much less get a huge payday. With stuff like this, I usually buy a few for fun, and that's about it. And it is fun to spin a few times. And with this one, if you buy your credits in bulk like I do, it's actually very competitive to buy some spins with credits vs. buying off website.
With any gambling system that's cannily designed, there's a threshold of investment where it will start to pay out better. Not that I know how Impy's is designed, but with most casino games of that nature are a game of finding the break and determining if the odds and payouts make the trek to the breaks worthwhile.
This is why casinos really, really hate mathematicians.
Yeah, definitely. With IRE, "gambling" promos sort of vary. A lot of them tend to have very good, but not -amazing- returns in the past year or two. Those ones are my favorite. The second tier stockings were like that. This one feels more like a "real" gambling promo. Higher risk of not breaking even, possibly very high reward. Although, even with a "real" gambling promo like this, I feel they've made efforts to make "losing" feel less painful. If you're losing, it's not "awful". As well, if we had more people who were just gaga over vanity pets (which some of the games do), all of the trinkets could actually be quite profitable. But here, we have more people who are like "does it help me stabby stab harder"? Or, like me, they -like- vanity pets, for example, but we don't like them 50+ credits worth.
