Hey SeattleITguy,
I agree, but it is a cool additional puzzle aspect that doesn't end up being a grind.
Just exploring and then run across something out of place.
Some of the target balloons are too tedious, but that's OK.
I am curious to hear how you are doing with your house since you didn't go through it on your previous play through.
Keep me posted.
Hi Reaper,
I’m having fun wandering Hyrule at the moment. Is it just me, or is it totally anti-climactic when you find a Korok? The seeds are useful to have - don’t get me wrong. But sometimes their are Korok’s you find in tough places, and you think it’ll be something better.
Hey SeattleITguy,
I knew what you meant. Pull that thread and you will get 20 hours of additional game play.
I honestly couldn't tell you how I captured any of the beasts. I don't remember.
I do know there is more than one way to do it.
I sought my nephews help at times and discovered that I had to do it differently than he did because of the order we went in.
I still haven't stormed the castle yet.
Started a new game called Biomutant that I like as well.
My nephew plays on PC through Steam, but I play it on PS4.
Not sure if it is on switch or not.
Glad you are able to play again.
Correction to my last post. I meant Hateno Village
Hi Reaper,
I’m currently trying remind myself how to beat Thunderbolt Ganon. I remember having to use magnesis, but there is nothing magnetic to grab onto. So I must have to beat him down to a certain level before the magnetic pillars show up.
So before I came to claim this divine beast, I was meandering around Kakariko Village and there is a house I can buy. I didn’t find that the first time I played BoTW. If you’ve played that part, no spoilers please. I’m leaving the desert after I beat Thunderbolt Ganon and taking it easy in Hyrule for a while.
Hope you have a good long weekend!
Hey there irondog, my old friend.
Thanks for sharing. I have heard Forever Young by Rod Stewart (I think) a million times.
Didn't even realize it was a cover.
Sounds like you might have a story to share if you have time.
If not, I understand as well.
Hope you are well and thanks for sharing.
Thanks 12yp,
Always good to hear new (to me) music.
Having some computer issues, so will be making some changes soon.
Might be down for a few days, but hope to post again soon.
GLTU.
Cheers! Reap, yeah good description (wiki concurs below)
Here's their first recording in 69'
(Before leavin' for outtaspace ;)
Hey 12yp, Always good to hear from ya.
Interesting stuff as always.
Kinda like Pink Floyd early on and then met up with David Bowie.
Have a good weekend.
Lol, just passing thru and noticed a bud deep space trippin' ;)
Did some research and this reliable source says "don't over do it"

Enjoy!, gotta go - got a spaceship to catch..
Hey SeattleITguy,
That is good to hear. I still haven't stormed Hyrule.
Am up to 115 shrines and had to cheat to get there. Not proud.
Found about 100 legitimately with few exceptions.
Did get a glimpse of the hyrule castle map when checking out the nearby shrine in the back.
It is strangely satisfying to wait for blood moons and take revenge on all the enemies that killed me over and over again early on.
Better than COD zombies.
Hope you are well my friend.
Sorry for not replying sooner.
IMO and FWIW.
Hi Reaper,
Yeah, I’m not a huge gamer, but I would agree - BoTW is my favorite single player game, too. Prior to that, I would definitely have handed that designation to the Rockstar games.
About to press A and start my next play-through of BoTW.
Thanks Reap. I've been busy and just wanted to say hello
(Just kiddin' bout' Gamerz ;)

Hardly trading cuz of that busy business but I noticed my post
Was a little cryptic. One would have to follow the thread back a bit
To see my recco RACMF/MTRX.v
Big partnership news (fortune 500) after a trading halt
Just somethin' for me to go long on while workin' in da bush..
Cheers!..
Good to see ya 12yp. Yep, has been pretty quiet here.
To be honest, I just haven't been able to think of anything interesting or insightful to post lately.
OTC stocks have been crazy in the past 6 months and everyone knows it.
No sense in pointing it out to people who already know.
Thanks for the song bud.
Have a good weekend.
Hey SeattleITguy,
I can pretty much say that BOTW is my favorite 1 player game of all time.
Back in the day Resident Evil was #1 and then Red Dead was my favorite, then later, The Last of Us.
I think minecraft is still my all time favorite game because of the couch co-op 4 player split screen.
But gosh, BOTW is so cool and involved it would be hard to play co-op.
I cant have any distractions when try to parry guardians for example. LOL.
If I cant hear the beeps, I am toast. Cant imagine throwing a new born into the mix.
Hey Guys!,.. that didn't take me too long to catch up here ;).
Hi Reaper,
“Pretty sure that when/if I beat the game, gonna start a new one almost immediately.”
This quote brings a smile to my face. It’s pretty much how I felt after beating the game. At the time, I had a one-year old starting a new “phase” that completely threw off my sleep schedule. Which is saying a lot, because it’s not like I was getting great sleep up to that point. Nevertheless, had I been getting better sleep, I would have immediately started new game.
I feel optimistic that Nintendo will do well with the upcoming sequel. Should they use the BoTW open world as the core of the sequel (which rumors pretty much confirm), it’ll give them an opportunity to add some cool new features while still giving that BoTW experience.
Hey SeattleITguy,
Its fun looking for shrines. Found a few more in that last couple of days.
I know the two you are talking about near the dueling peaks stable.
I visit the one peak every blood moon to kill the rock golem for ore and gems.
Pretty sure that when/if I beat the game, gonna start a new one almost immediately.
Good fun.
Hope all is well.
I never found all the shrines. Can’t remember how far along I got. I almost had more fun finding shrines than playing the main story.
I do remember there being two shrines close to each other - near the peaks of a couple of adjacent mountains. Sorry if that’s a spoiler. June 1 is my tentative date to start playing again. We’ll see if that happens.
Gosh SeattleITguy,
Its been a blast. I am up to 74 shrines.
My nephew says their are 120.
Wanna find a few more before the Hyrule Castle raid.
Need a few more cores to have the fairies upgrade my armor again.
Good fun.
Hi Reaper,
I hear ya. The game is just a lot of fun. Don’t blame you for wanting to savor it for as long as possible.
Hey SeattleITguy,
I am really torn. part of me wants to storm the castle, but at the same time I am trying to savor the game to fullest extent.
More shrines...more cooking dishes and waiting for blood moons so I can harvest items again.
I will let ya know if I finally beat it. Its been a blast so thanks for recommending it.
You’re on the home stretch! Look forward to hearing your thoughts - assuming you beat the game :).
I’ve been very focused on Bowser’s Fury for the past couple of weeks. Once I get through that, I think I’m going to play BOTW again.
Getting ready to storm the castle in Hyrule.
Got the switch back and just getting geared up.
Prolly be a few days until I get time, but looking forward to it.
Have a good weekend.
Thanks SeattleITguy,
I will have to check it out. I never played Mario much, but remember working as a cashier in a small town video store back in the day.
The kind of store that might see 5 people on an 8 hour shift during the week. The owner set us up with a TV and VCR under the counter and actually wanted us to watch movies and play games so we could make recommendations to people.
We could hook up the rental consoles and play SNES and Sega.
Free rentals were a nice perk as well. Played so many games for so many hours, its all a blur. LOL.
Street Fighter, Romance of the 3 kingdoms, Lemmings, Ninja Gaiden and Aerobiz are the more notables.
As far as politics, I pretty much quit. Never really liked Hannity or FOX in general. Done with Bongino, but wish him well.
No more talk radio in the car anymore either. Back to classic rock stations and all 80s weekends.
Looking forward to being out and getting some sun.
Mow the lawn, road trip on the bike and might break out the little sailboat for the first time in awhile.
Life is good. What else is there?
Hi Reaper,
I’ve actually raised my opinion of Super Mario 3D World. I think it’s actually better than Super Mario Odyssey. I haven’t found a Mario sequel to better than the first (...first for a given console, that is) since Super Mario 2 came out for the NES (and I pretended to be sick, so my working parents would let me stay home....and play Super Mario 2 all day - unbeknownst to them).
Most people can get by living life without paying attention to politics. I’ve actually gotten a lot better about ignoring the noise for the past few months, but can’t completely quit it. That said, I generally focus on the left-of-center, middle, and right-of-center outlets. In my opinion, anything outside of that just irks me. I’ll occasionally watch MSNBC or Fox News, but cant handle more than 15 minutes of either one. That’s just me, though.
I’m looking forward to being able to go outside again, and not be couped up at home with a young one and no indoor places to go. We did hit up the local bowling alley a few weeks ago when it first re-opened. I haven’t bowled in years, but that day was the first sense of real normalcy I’ve had in a while - even with wearing a mask.
I’m with you as far as mowing the grass grows. Doing yard work in the early evening sure beats the PNW winters of sunrise at 8:00am and sunset at 4:30pm.
Hey SeattleITguy,
Funny thing is my nephew said he already finished the MH Rise main story, (3 days) so I might be getting it back pretty soon.
He mentioned that he might continue playing the side stuff and maybe revisit BOTW side quests and shrines that he skipped.
I think the main test will be when BOTW2 is released. Will prolly just have to break down and buy one then.
As far as politics goes, I try not to follow it, but it kinda follows me, since my family and friends are still watching it.
Heck, I didn't know that Dan Bongino was taking Rush's spot on the noon to three time slot until a friend told me about it.
Its just gotten tedious and predictable anymore. Life is too short.
Kinda looking forward to mowing the grass again and getting some sun. LOL...How sad is that?
Hi Reaper,
The Switch is a pretty solid system. It’s target audience is different than PS or XBOX, but there are some game franchises that everyone whose played a video game likes. I can’t wait for the follow up to BOTW.
I’m also excited for warmer weather. I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again. Seattle (and Western WA in general) is the most beautiful place in the world during the summer months.
As for the rest of it... I’ve been pretty good about tuning a lot of it out, but my DNA won’t let me completely turn my focus elsewhere. It’s a curse and a blessing, I suppose.
Will be curious to see if withdrawals from BOTW wind up fast-tracking any decisions for you to purchase a Switch :).
Hey SeattleITguy,
I have been thinking about buying the switch for the last week or so. It really is a cool system that I hadn't given it credit for.
Might be worth it for BOTW alone, but am gonna check out the catalog and see what other games they have for it. I am just a cheapskate that way. LOL.
The GME clerk was the one who mentioned MH. I was taking his word for it. It only came up because the Rise launch was botched apparently. Stores weren't getting the copies they were supposed to and it was a hassle to just to get a copy, even though I preordered it.
As far as the rest of it goes, I am not really following it anymore.
I just kinda unplugged from it. BOTW kinda help me break that addiction of constantly watching politics.
With the nicer weather coming, looking forward on getting out more often.
Hi Reaper,
Has there been any temptation to buy your own Switch? It seems like PS4 hits the catalog of games you like, but knowing that you were going to “lose” the Switch before finishing BOTW - did buying your own ever cross your mind? For a million dollars, I never would have guessed that Monster Hunter was the best selling Nintendo franchise. Not that it’s a bad franchise, by any means - I just figured that Mario or Zelda would have held that title.
Yeah, keeping our supply at home heavy. Also trying to use my “diplomatic skills” to listen to others. Beyond the fringe extremists on both sides of the spectrum (whom are dictating the current narrative) there are many people who have real-life problems and merely want financial stability and happiness. We’ll eventually get to addressing those problems, but probably not in any significant way for a few years. If only we could get a copy of BOTW in the hands of every American, and have us all be happy :).
Hey SeattleITguy,
BOTW gets more fun to play the deeper you get into it. I mentioned that I freed the elephant and since then I have done the camel and bird.
Gosh, I wish I would've done the bird first. The updraft perk would have been soooo useful in the early stages of the game. Oh well.
Unfortunately, Monster Hunter: Rise was released this past Friday, so my nephew took back the switch and I probably wont get a chance to play BOTW again anytime soon.
I just learned though that Monster Hunter is Nintendo's best selling franchise in its history. Who would have thought?
Anyways, the deal was I could have the switch until Rise dropped.
In anticipation of that, I picked up the Dishonored 2/Prey combo pack for PS4.
Prey is pretty cool. Its no BOTW, but it will do. LOL.
As far as the craziness goes, might I make a suggestion?
Grab a sealable tote for $7 at WMT or wherever you shop and start grabbing a couple extra of boxes of Kraft Mac&Cheese each time you go shopping and toss them in there.
Hearing 2021 is gonna make 2020 look tame.
Be safe and thanks for the post.
IMO and FWIW.
Hi Reaper,
Glad you’re enjoying the game. I’ve actually been pretty immersed in Super Mario 3D World. For a “platformer” (if we can even really use that term in three dimensions), it’s actually turning out to be more fun than I insinuated in an earlier post. I’m also playing Mario Kart online - definitely a lot of fun. I was in college when Mario Kart for the N64 came out and blew up in popularity. So, I have an affinity for that franchise mixed with some nostalgia.
We’ll come out of the “craziness” of the current situation in the country - scathed - but better. Will probably be a few years of it, but it is what it is.
GWTR. Huge potential there. EOM.

That same day, the company will host a conference call at 2:00 PM Eastern time to discuss the financial results and provide a business update...”
QMCI, GLTA, IMO and FWIW.
Gosh SeattleITguy, that recommendation came just in time.
I mentioned the game drought I was going through and BOTW took care of that.
It took some time to realize I wouldn't be able to "button mash" my way through it.
The counters are such a big part of the game that I didn't even realize when I first started.
Thanks so much for sharing.
Its a nice little escape from the crazy happening out there.
Be well and stay safe bud.
Hi Reaper,
Glad you’re enjoying BOTW. Your mention of “elephant” brought back some other memories of that game. I’m almost due to play again, for sure. One of my other buddies was looking for Switch game recommendations, so he also recently started playing BOTW. Nothing but positive feedback from him, so far. Looks like another Zelda game is coming out this summer (not the BOTW sequel, but I’ll probably wind up buying it).
I bought the new Super Mario game about a week ago. It’s decent for a Mario game. Not as good as Super Mario Bros 2, Super Mario 64 or Super Mario Galaxy, but still keeps me engaged.
Other than that, just keeping my head down, and trying to make sense of this née reality we’re living through. We’ll get through it, but we’ve still got a few more years of “living through historical times” left, IMO.
FWIW SeattleITguy,
Just reclaimed the elephant tonight.
BOTW was a great game pick and am really enjoying it.
Been playing three or four hours a night just to get this far.
LOL...
Hope you are well.
thank you for sharing, you did ah lot of work on these, great job my friend.
lot of those .0001's did well last 3 mos

Just a thought mick,
Back in November when OTC volume was ramping up, I sorted the OTC catalog by price from .0001 to .10.
https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=159614877
Might be useful to go through and see what hasn't moved up yet.
I haven't had time to go though it myself lately.
GLTU and thanks again for stopping by my little board.

Hey mick,
Thank you for the kind words and stock picks.
Appreciate the effort you make to be helpful to the entire ihub community.
You have certainly been helpful to me over the many years we have been here.
Stop by anytime and share picks or anything else.
Nothing is off topic here within reason, so anything from knock-knock jokes, music or whatever.
Just trying to have fun and maybe make some money along the way.

The reaper chillax stock forum
About the board
This is a “free zone” stock forum open to any stock exchange and any tier OTC security. It is intended to be a board where anyone and everyone can post stock picks, charts, research and strategies in a casual environment without any pressure.
I don’t anticipate many promotions or momentum plays being posted about here, but they are certainly allowed.
This board was created to give everyone a chance to get away from high pressure, short term trading concepts and take a longer view on what may be better opportunities.
Typically, shell corporations, recently re-instated companies, reverse mergers or other FLEs (Forward Looking Events) that may require a slightly longer term hold than a typical momentum play.
Keep in mind that posts on this board are opinions and should not be considered investment advice. You are ultimately responsible for your own actions.
For me, if stock trading isnt fun, there is no point to it.
There are a million ways to be miserable and still make money that require less time and effort.
This is always going to be work, only you get to do it on your own terms and enjoy the benefits of your own success.
So have fun, trade smart and always take profits and risk off the table.
