Someone told me they stopped making these & they are not real Xanax? Is it true at false that they stopped making these? Also when I take one of these 2mg Bars they feel just like any other 2mg Xanax it has the same calming effect to it.

Sooo i was randomly on Shays Facebook and stumbled upon this. I wonder is she from Milwaukee😭👀

Finally got off my lazy butt and made a bull bar for my little prime here

Has anyone had the pork? I read lots of recommendations for the BBQ on this sub. Rank the top 3 please.

This is a very simple quiz of about 200 questions with the main point in being to create a highly detailed and realistic AI character for your project. You can find it here https://aifabricated.com/ai-character-creator-quiz/. It currently only outputs in textgenwebui character format. I got this idea because I want to create an AI version of myself with a cloned voice and all. The more personal you answer the questions the better results you'll have with your AI after the quiz. If anyone has any feature requests or tips feel free to send them in!

Bloons TD 6 v37.0 - Update Notes!

Rolling out now on iOS, Android, Steam please restart your storefront or be patient if it does not appear for you, these updates can take some time to be rolled out to every region due to how the storefronts are set up.
Check out the more awesomer update video here.

Key New Features

• New Paragon - The Magus Perfectus! (loves casting spells) Some of you know we teased this last year, but we needed more time to balance the art and design required to make this extra special, so we are very pleased to get this live! Wizard Monkey’s Paragon is designed to be a higher level strategic Paragon with powerful ability usage similar to the Doomship.
  • The core of the Magus is a toggle to and from a Draining Beam which deals very small single target damage but absorbs graveyard mana as it damages and destroys Bloons
  • While toggled off from the Drain Beam, Magus attacks with a powerful Arcane Spike that deals massive damage to MOABs and revives Bloons it slays, while a Dark Phoenix circles overhead attacking with Firebomb breath and a radial fireball attack
  • Phoenix Explosion Ability: can be cast to consume the Paragon’s entire graveyard to set all Bloons on screen on fire for 30 seconds and summon one Zombie ZOMG for every 9000 graveyard mana consumed
  • Arcane Metamorphosis Ability: can be used to consume all graveyard mana and transform the Magus briefly into an alternate form which decimates everything with a flame cascade attack; Metamorphosis lasts longer the more mana it consumes
  • Magus was designed for armchair play so it will fill and consume graveyard mana on its own, but our goal was to create more actively controlled Paragon for those who will enjoy microing between Beam on and off and choosing which awesome Ability to unleash and when

New Awesome

• Happy Birthday BTD6 - On June 14th, BTD6 will celebrate 5 years of monkeytastic fun and strategy! We hope you’ll join us for the main menu changes, skinned Collection event, special Questing, and general celebration. Thank you for five amazing years and we’re looking forward to all the years ahead!
• New Hero Skin - Jiangshi Sauda, a fun new cross-cultural look for Sauda brainstormed by the art team, mixing inspirations from a favorite show and Chinese folklore
• New Map - Erosion
  • Community designed advanced map Erosion by “I am not an artist” ~ u/TheWiseTroll
  • TheWiseTroll’s original concept proposed land and water but when thinking about map colors and the little stories we think of behind each map, the concept of the polar bear walking back with the shrinking ice was too compelling to do anything else
• New Quests
  • Birthday Party - Pop the Party Bloon as many times as you can before it escapes
  • Blade Sauda Nowhere - Try out Sauda and learn some of her skills
  • Patch’s Cheap Chimps Challenge - Beat Logs with as little cash spent as you can
  • Striken Bad - Defeat the BAD on round 100 using First Strike. The spelling hurts us, too, you’re not the only one - but we had to do it!
• Least Cash and Least Tier Boss Events
  • We’ve heard feedback about and have been wanting to shake up Boss rules, so here we go!
  • Applying new victory conditions to Boss Events completely changes the focus while still needing the damage output and type to handle each Boss
  • Time still matters, as the secondary time score will break any ties
• New Trophy Store Items
  • Heroes: Geraldo Pack Mule pet, Quincy Spec Ops Drop In placement
  • Monkeys: Sweden Village Flag
  • Bloons: Party Hat Bloons
  • Game & UI: Vortex Avatar, Sunset Samba 64 Mix music track, Quincy Arrows banner
  • Nexus.gg Creator Supporter Avatar - show your support for Content Creators by using the Creator Support button on the Settings screen and purchasing any IAP
• Limited Time only {trophy items if there’s a seasonal}
• 5 Year Anniversary Avatar, 5 Year Anniversary Banner
• New CT Team Store items
  • Base Props: Treasure Chest
  • Icons: Overclock icon, Archmage Staff icon
  • Frames: Bloon From The Dead frame, Mage Hat frame
• New Slider
  • Everybody loves sliders, right?
  • After lots of discussion on the team and a fair few player requests, we’ve added a ‘Projectile and Effects Scaling’ accessibility option to main menu Settings
  • This is primarily for accessibility to minimize the size and brightness of projectiles and effects, especially when the screen is crowded with Monkeys and Bloons
  • This is not directly a performance improvement feature, so please do not expect the game to run noticeably better - just noticeably cleaner
  • We tried not to remove key game state indicators but this is ultimately in player control - if you adjust the slider and effects and projectiles make it harder to play the game, please reset the slider until the game is working the way you want
  • It’s also really fun for silly screengrabs, so please post your favorites!

Balance Changes

Boomerang Monkey
This part has to be included along with the Lych Soul rework with Paragons which is finally making it in this update after necessary delays. As Boomerang Paragon’s knockback hits so many times so quickly, we need to make it more reasonable when applied to targets that aren’t immediately destroyed.

• Boomerang Paragon knockback amount reduced 3 > 1

Bomb Shooter
MOAB Assassin fills a useful role of a pure long cooldown ‘single target assassination’ in the game, but when compared to something like First Strike it feels a little lacking that it is unable to carry damage through MOAB Layers

• x4x MOAB Assassin ability passes through MOAB layers
• x4x MOAB Assassin ability explosion centers around the impact target

Tack Shooter
Blade Shooter has always struggled to find much value without MK or as a step to Maelstrom, so to give it build value on its own we feel like this should be a part of the base value on the upgrade.

• x3x Blade Shooter pierce increased from 6 > 8

Ice Monkey
Lowest tiers of ice monkey are far too effective for their cost against ceramics, with this scaling well all the way to round 100, we feel like ice duration against ceramics needs to be reduced to counter this but for now this reduction will only apply until T3.

• 000 Ice Monkey freeze duration reduced by 50% on ceramics
• All T3 Ice Monkeys increase freeze duration on ceramics from 50 > 100%
• 203 Icicles crosspath now gains camo prio

Glue Gunner
The Bloon Solver’s rework has been very popular, however, we’d like to have a better lead up into the new mechanics by introducing this earlier at the tier 4 now.

• 4xx Bloon Dissolver now creates puddles on track leading up to Bloon Solver, puddles deal 1 damage, all other stats and crosspath benefits are the same.

Sniper Monkey
This will allow Cripple MOAB to take out regular MOAB layers in one shot until round 100; for such a slow attacking single target tower we feel this will help top path flex, even if mostly for show.

• 5xx Cripple MOAB damage increased from 80 > 280

Monkey Buccaneer
Reworking Grape Shot crosspathing as it gains far too much crosspath value by T2 but then is lacking in purpose at higher tiers, double shot will only work as one extra grape however Destroyer will now apply its full attack rate buff to the grapes and Flagship will equip aspects of Grape Shot on the mini planes.

• 210 Grape Shot total projectiles reduced from 10 -> 6
• 310 Destroyer also reduced from 10 > 6 grapes
• 310 Destroyer now increases grape attack rate twice as much, matching increase to the regular attack
• 410 Aircraft Carrier planes radial attack now fires an arc of grapes instead of darts
• 410 Aircraft Carrier planes radial Emission Angle 360 > 90
• 410 Aircraft Carrier planes radial projectile count 8 > 6
• 410 Aircraft Carrier plane grape projectile speed 100 > 200
• 420 Aircraft Carrier planes radial projectile art: dart > hot grape
• 420 Aircraft Carrier planes radial damage type Sharp > Fire
• 400 Aircraft Carrier plane radials damage 1 > 2
• 4xx Aircraft Carrier missiles now follow tower target priority

Monkey Ace
Spectre is shifting a little of the ceramic bonus around into basic all damage at the cost of reduced pierce, which should make up for lack of single target damage while also making the pierce crosspath more necessary when being used for cleanup focus.

• xx4 Spectre Dart damage increased 3 > 4
• xx4 Spectre Dart ceramic bonus reduced 2 > 1
• xx4 Spectre Dart pierce reduced 15 > 10
• xx4 Spectre Bomb damage increased 2 > 3
• xx4 Spectre Bomb ceramic bonus reduced 4 > 3
• xx4 Spectre Bomb pierce reduced 30 > 20

Heli Pilot
Even with the map-range advantage, rotors are weak compared to any other constant AoE circle like this. Chinook feels like it’s near a place we are happy with now, however we want another tiny nudge on cost while keeping cash generation value the same. Pushing some higher values on the last Comanche Commander changes as the missile attack is effectively such a small portion of the tower’s total damage late game.

• 302 Razor Rotors will now benefit from the faster firing crosspath
• 3xx Razor Rotors cooldown rate 0.75 > 0.5
• x4x Support Chinook price reduced from $10500 > 9500
• x4x Support Chinook supply crate cash generated reduced $1650 > 1,550
• x4x Support Chinook max uses per round reduced from 3 > 2
• xx4 & xx5 Comanche mini's follow the target priority set on their main Heli
• xx5 Comanche Commander missile damage 7 > 15
• xx5 Comanche Commander missile moab bonus 5 > 8
• xx5 Comanche Commander mini's missile dmg 5 > 15
• xx5 Comanche Commander mini's missile moab bonus 5 > 8

Mortar Monkey
As the Rapid Reload crosspath has actually fallen behind in value compared to Burny Stuff for top path Mortars we want to try a slight stun duration increase as this buffs the base path with a larger benefit to Rapid Reload mortars as a stalling option. Mortar consistency is lacking at x3x making it tough to spend on even though x4x is fairly good, so some of the T4 rate is shifting down to help out with this. As the camo property has grown quite weak and currently Signal Flare is considered the best decamo tool, we want to push back slightly on its cost and by reducing the blast radius of the decamo area while emphasizing crosspathing for effectiveness there.

• 4xx The Big One stun duration non-MOABs increased from 0.5s > 0.75
• 5xx The Biggest One stun duration MOAB increased from 0.3s > 0.5
• 5xx The Biggest One stun duration BFB increased from 0.2s > 0.3
• 5xx The Biggest One stun duration DDT increased from 0.2s > 0.3
• x3x Heavy Shells attack delay reduced from 1.08 > 0.81
• x4x Artillery Battery attack rate buff reduced from ¼ to ⅓ (remains the same rate: 0.27)
• xx3 Signal flare cost increased $700 > 800
• xx4 Shattering Shells price reduced from $11,000 > 10900
• xx3 Signal Flare decamo radius reduced from 50 > 43
• 103 Signal Flare decamo pierce increased by 5 > 10
• xx4 Shattering Shells burn DoT deals moab bonus +5

Super Monkey
As Engineer sentries do this already, newly spawned Mini Avatars from temples will now by default match the target priority of the temple.

• 4xx Sun Temple's Magic Sacrifice mini Sun Avatars when placed will spawn with the same target prio as their parent tower

Ninja Monkey
We’re changing the Ninja Monkey Paragon’s focus as a fighter against camo, as we feel like a greater strength and tactical value against camo will be the full reveal of all camos rather than all camo removal.

• Ascended Shadow now grants global camo detection for all your towers
• Ascended Shadow no longer strips camo from Bloons with every attack
• Ascended Shadow main attack gains bonus to camo +6
• Ascended Shadow Flash Bomb Explosion gains bonus to camo +20
• Ascended Shadow Flash Bomb Shurikens gains bonus to camo +16
• Ascended Shadow Sticky Bomb Projectile gains bonus to camo +3200
• Ascended Shadow Sticky Bomb Explosion gains bonus to camo +700
• Ascended Shadow now deals 25% damage to all non-Boss MOABs that spawn

Alchemist
Alchemist Transforming Tonic is in a weird spot with the transformation unable to attack through walls when the base alchemist is able to. Also with this, including a QoL fix for the T5 that currently prevents transformed towers from functioning with target priority.

• x4x Transforming Tonic transformed alchemist can now ignore line of sight
• x5x Total Transformation towers transformed by the x5x will keep their Target Priority

Druid
While the tornado doesn't do anything to MOABs, it still spends itself on them which wastes a relatively long cooldown, so addressing this flaw. Avatar of wrath doubles the base attack speed before any scaling is applied, but this hasn’t ever applied to the 205 Lightning, so taking care of that as well. Housekeeping - even deep in the forest, it does actually make life better.

• 3xx Druid of the Storm’s Tornado no longer targets MOAB-class Bloons
• x3x Druid of the Jungle no longer pops Lead Bloons without 130 crosspath
• x3x Jungle Vine follows target prio of tower instead of strong
• x3x Jungle Vine defaults tower to strong priority when purchased
• 205 Avatar of Wrath base Heart of Thunder attack rate increased 2.3s > 1.15

Spike Factory
We’ve heard the feedback, so Spiked Mines get a tweak to get more mines exploding but with less pierce on each, to overall increase quality of life in more frequent use but less wasted pierce. This will help out with some of the problems it has scaling into late game super ceramics.

• 4xx Spiked Mines pierce increased from 12 > 20
• 4xx Spiked Mines explosion pierce reduced from 40 > 30
• 4xx Spiked Mines DoT damage increased from 1 > 10
• 5xx Super Mines explosion pierce remains at 60
• 5xx Super Mines DoT damage increased from 1000 > 2500

Monkey Village
A minor QoL for cheap Monkeyopolis creation, we included a small base amount of cash production to the generation formula.

• xx5 Monkeyopolis income formula now includes a base +$2500 minimum

Engineer
The 005 crosspath fix in the last update left XXXL Trap slower than previously even if crosspathed to 205, so we are increasing that base 005 slightly to match up the 205 crosspath again so that it isn’t any slower than before.

• xx5 XXXL Trap attack cooldown reduced from 5.8s > 4.6

Beast Handler
As our newest tower to be added to BTD6, we went over feedback for every path and made a large number of adjustments addressing a variety of points.

• 3xx Great White thrash rate benefits from speed buffs
• 3xx Great White damage increased 4 > 8
• 3xx Great White max extra damage from merge increased 8 > 16
• 3xx Great White max attack rate buff from merge increased 0.20634 > 0.38
• 3xx Great White extra thrash knockback duration from merge increased 0.1 > 0.2
• 4xx Orca thrash damage increased 20 > 30
• 4xx Orca thrash max extra damage from merge increased 40 > 60
• 4xx Orca max attack rate buff from merge increased 0.37829 > 0.38
• 4xx Orca thrash radius increased 20 > 24
• 5xx Megalodon price reduced from 55,000 > 45,000
• 5xx Megalodon thrash radius increased 30 > 36
• 5xx & x5x Beast handler paths are now overclockable
• x4x and x5x Max Merge Bonus: Overkill damage on MOABs now distributes to the children of that target
• xx1 Gyrfalcon path deals +1 damage to Regrows to stop accidental infinite regrow farms
• xx3 Golden Eagle pierce increased 12 > 15
• xx3 Golden Eagle pierce range increased 24 > 30
• xx3 Golden Eagle ceramic pierce penalty reduced from +3 > 1
• xx3 Golden Eagle Max Merge Bonus: Now grabs MOABs with pierce penalty +14

Gwendolin
Removing the stacking aspect of Gwendolin’s burn damage over time, but increasing the damage as she levels up so that it actually scales up in power now.

• Lv6 Gwendonlin main attack DoT stack count 0 > 1
• Lv6 Gwendonlin main attack DoT damage increased from 1 > 2
• Lv9 Gwendonlin main attack DoT damage increased from 1 > 4
• Lv10 Gwendonlin main attack DoT damage now increases by 1 per additional level

Adora
While they are complicated individuals, Adora can now fully appreciate the sacrifice of the newest Monkeys in the struggle against the Bloons.

• Lv7 Blood Sacrifice can now be used on Beast Handlers

Admiral Brickell
We aren’t happy with strats that start looking like exploits with frequent sell-replace loops.

• Upon Selling Brickell - all of her placed Mines are now expired along with her as well

Psi
Psi’s stalling out of the end of round is an odd mix of useful / annoying / out of control, so we are for now capping this to a 3 seconds of overtime stalling. Psi’s Psychic Blast ability also has weirdly low pierce for a long cooldown ability with no damage, we are increasing the base pierce greatly but it no longer increases in pierce at Lv7 since the extra pulse brings more pierce anyway.

• If no Bloons are left unpopped on screen aside from ones Psi is currently holding & destroying, these Bloons will be destroyed after a maximum of 3 seconds
• Lv3 Psychic Blast pierce increased from 50 > 200
• Lv7 Psychic Blast pierce increased from 100 > 200

Event / Boss / Relic / Knowledge

• All Lych Soul variations can now be stunned/slowed by paragon tier upgrades

Looking Forward
Five months of 2023 done and dusted, which feels to us like it has zoomed by, perhaps because the Auckland office where the BTD6 team is based has only just reopened after the severe flooding at the end of January. All of Update 36 and the majority of Update 37 were completed while again working from home, but we’re very excited to have the office repairs done, the flood wall almost finished, and the ability to work shoulder to shoulder again on fun new things for the monkeyverse! Here’s the latest gaze into the crystal ball:

• Update 38 Key Content
  • New Boss - Phayze: another all new Boss concept and play style, not giving any other hints apart from the name itself
  • Summer fun: a new Brickell hero skin and a waterpark map aimed toward Intermediate to help keep northern hemisphere summer cool
  • Quests: continuing to build new quest system features and adding a few new Quests to the list
• Update 39 Key Content
  • Map Editor: under construction since last year with internal systems testing happening during 38.0 development, we are super excited to put map creation tools in player hands on as many platforms as possible when it goes live
  • New Hero - Spirit Walker: another unique design that we’re sandboxing already to make sure it has as much balance and art iteration as possible, again no hints other than the name
• Update 40 Key Content
  • New Paragon - Monkey Sub: we’ve tagged sub as the next Paragon, so tell the Navarch to stop hoarding all of the Portable Lakes!
  • Stretch Goals - Boss Rush Team Event and CT Themes: lots of unknowns 3 updates out but we have strong plans for a new Team event and new parameters for Contested Territory that will make each CT more dynamic - anything that we don’t get done by end of year will have strong groundwork for next year
• Console
  • Getting closer to submission on Xbox and PlayStation but this has been slow going. We’ve added another programmer and are working even more closely with platform partners to get through our last issues and launch as soon as possible, but that’s likely at least another 2 months. Switch is still a consideration depending on response to Xbox and PlayStation, as it will require additional bespoke development.

There was a shed in the backyard already built but used as storage in my backyard. I had absolutely no previous experience in DIY as I lived in a condo all my life and didn't need to handle any kind of tools. My goal with this shed was to try and transform it into a bar to host parties / karaoke nights. The shed dimensions are 11 x 14 feet.
Keep in mind I live in Canada and I wanted to be able to use it in the -30 degree winter nights!
Please find below the different steps of the projects with pictures!
Grab a seat, I'll serve ya!
​
The lounge as I call it
STEPS / TIMELINE

1. First step was research, research AND research.
2. Second step was equipping myself with Ryobi tools from home depot
3. Third step was to strip the storage shelves and empty the shed !

Everything had to go!
4. Step 4 was insulating the walls and the roof. I got the foam from my local home depot store. I used two 2x4 panels between the wood struts. Then, I covered everything with a vapor barrier and stapled it to the wood.
Getting some help from my dad ! We unfortunately weren't able to insulate the flooring as the plywood screws were so rusted there was absolutely no way to remove them. We tried all the possible tricks on the internet and no luck. We decided not to insulate the floor.
5. Step 5 I had read that it is better to frame everything up using 2x3 wood lats. So this is what we did!
Framing
6. There was already a breaker box with 2 outlets. I hired an electrician to set up a 240v heater and 4 spotlights on the roof. The spotlights are from Globe; full LED and can be controlled from anywhere using the phone app. (No need to be within distance)
Breaker on the left, heater and spotlights
7. Step 7 was definetly the hardest and the one that had me discouraged. God knows how many drywall panels I've ruined by not cutting them well. Too much, not enough, then too much... SCRAP. Repeat.. Rent a truck from home depot.. unload dry wall.. break drywall.. cut too much.. REPEAT.
Due to the framing it was easy to know where to screw the panels.
Drywall is up!
I definetly should have bought that tool to cut around the spotlight for it to fit perfectly....
8. Step 8 was the drywall joints. I was all over the place and reeaallyyy messy but at least I had fun doing it. Pretty satisfying to see it unfold.
Everything is covered, as you can see
9. Step 9 was applying primer on the walls and the roof
Needed a small brush for the edges
10. Step 10 was starting the build the bar frame. I am SO glad with how simple it was to do, considering I have never put two wood parts together.
Bar frame! All from home depot
11. Step 11, I realize I should stop with the bar until I put the floor because It will be too late to get it out once it's all screwed together. So I chose to go with Vinyl planks, once again from my local home depot store.
Looks like an appartment
12. Step 12, I had to paint the walls and the roof. I chose to go with a brick wallpaper for one wall and a custom wallpaper for the second, and the rest matte black. Paint is called ''Limousine Black'', from home depot. I'll spare you the pictures and skip to the custom wallpaper I had done through Alibaba by a company in China.
All custom-made
13. Everything is ready, the rest is staining the actual bar, furnishing the room and touch-ups here and there. I bought everything online or from locals selling used stuff!
