![]() ![]() We The Dragons of the Sky was a song made up by Cliff in Escaping Peril. The dragonets, hooray!" We The Dragons of the Sky The MudWing soldiers in the camp sing the "eerie" version of the song, the one sang by the prisoners, after Sunny visited Queen Moorhen's dream, telling her to cancel the IceWing attack as well as to tell Princess Burn to meet in the courtyard of her stronghold to decide the SandWing queen. Glory recognizes Deathbringer whistling it as a warning to the other NightWings on their mission in the rainforest. As they were singing, they left out the "hooray" at the end, as Clay did when he played the wires. The other prisoners joined in, revealing the song's popularity among the tribes and hope in the dragonets, but they were interrupted by Princess Burn and Queen Scarlet. He noted that the wires' noises sounded too eerie, unlike the song's joyful tune. Later, Clay played this song on the metal wires used in the SkyWing prison to communicate with Peril when he hadn't seen her for a while and needed her to inform him on Sunny's current location. After Morrowseer visits the dragonets Tsunami sings the song to try to get their guardians to release her, only stopping after Kestrel threatens to tie Clay to a stalactite. Webs taught the song to the dragonets, which was a mistake in the eyes of Dune and Kestrel, as Tsunami sang it to get on their nerves. The lyrics retell the prophecy, explaining that five dragonets will come and end the war. The Dragonets Are Coming is a bar song that is widely known among the dragons of Pyrrhia. It will become the anthem for an annual strawberry festival. Strawberries as Big as a Scavenger's Head was mentioned in Darkness of Dragons as a song Peacemaker will write in the future, according to Moonwatcher's vision. Strawberries as Big as a Scavenger's Head Getting all K-I-S-S-Y!" Anemone’s version It is similar to the real-life song K-I-S-S-I-N-G. K-I-S-S-Y was a song sung by Anemone to Turtle about him and Kinkajou. ![]() ![]() 2 Strawberries as Big as a Scavenger's Head. ![]()

![]() The Church is located directly on your Graveyard, but in order to gain access to it, you must have your Graveyard at a level 5 of Quality, even though you start off at -29. As you progress further in the game you will be able to regain energy by eating better food or potions. Don’t worry if you feel like your missing a deadline from sleeping through one of the days, because thankfully there is no time limit quests or having to reach the “end” at a certain time. At the start of the game your best friend will be your bed. From daily gathering of materials, to even taking care of corpses. Gluttony = Merchant (South of Dead Horse Tavern)Įnvy = Snake (Cellar under your house,will start appearing at Sacrificial Zone once unlocked)Įverything you do in this game will require energy. Along with each Sin there will be a key character that will only appear on said days in only one area. There are six days in total, and each day represents a sin. Reason behind this is because there is a known bug that gaining points from reading either doesn’t count toward your total count or blocks you from earning the trophies for said points. It is best to avoid reading books to earn any points until after you earned 3,000 of each red, green, and blue. Warning! If you aren’t ready for a grindy game with no quick way to get rich or advance then you might want to turn away now. A roadmap is provided in the stages below.įollow us on twitter for the latest news and giveaways. ![]() Achievements for Steam and Xbox are in almost all cases the same as the PlayStation 4 Trophies. This can also be considered a walkthrough and may be used for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Steam. Welcome to the trophy guide for Graveyard Keeper. ![]() Author: Stephanie and edited by BloodDragooner ![]() ![]() ![]() Scroll down on the left-hand side and look for “Show only” and check the box that says Sold listings. You can type into the search field the device you’re selling, but don’t get too excited by what you find, we need to do some refinement first. My next step is to go to eBay to figure out what the device is worth. That’s going to hurt sales, but it does tell me to market this as a device to maybe use as a camera and nothing else. I can see from the Software tab of Mactracker that the maximum OS is iOS 9.3.5. In my example, one of the reasons my mother-in-law wanted to get rid of her iPad was because it can’t be upgraded to get the latest security updates. ![]() Remember I said that we have almost enough info to sell our device? The last bit we need is to know what the maximum operating system the device can take. This cellular capability is worth noting because it may have higher resale value. In my example, on the Chip and Memory tab, I can now see that this iPad is an iPad 2 with Wifi and 3G CDMA (aka Verizon). Pop open Mactracker and simply drop the model number into the search window. We’ll use Mactracker to crack to code on that MC985LL/A nonsense. If you haven’t ever heard of it, it’s a donationware app for the Mac and iOS that will tell you everything you need to know about anything ever sold by Apple.Ībout This Mac gave us just about everything we need to know about the Mac, but the iOS devices are a little more cryptic. Now that we have some clues about our devices, we need to bring out a long time favorite tool in the Mac community: Mactracker from mactracker.ca. If you see a goofy number like that, round up to the nearest 16, 32, 64, 128 or 256GB. On a 3-year-old iPhone 6 it clearly says 64GB, but on the iPad I’m selling it says 12.8GB for capacity. This number is critical in sales value but often hard to decipher. Next look for Capacity in the About list. We’re going to need some help deciphering what that means. In the long list of information about the device, you’ll find Model and it will be just a set of letters and numbers. On the device, open Settings, and scroll down to General and select About. I’m actually selling my mother-in-law’s old iPad, so I’ll use that as an example. Let’s walk through how to do the same thing on an iOS device. Now we know the Model, size, processor, memory, and disk. In my example it says 2.3GHz GHz i7, and 16GB of memory. For example, my 2013 MacBook Pro says, MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013). Right below the operating system you have installed it will tell you all about your system. On a Mac, select the Apple Logo in the upper left and pull down to About This Mac. To figure out what device I’m trying to sell, I use two tools. We might need to be a bit more specific than that. I said, “what iPhone do you have?” She smiled and said, “A PINK one!” A while ago, my son’s girlfriend had an iPhone she wanted me to sell for her. The first thing to do is figure out exactly what device you have. Maybe I’ve convinced you to sell it yourself, or at least you’re still paying attention. We’ll circle back to eBay in a little bit. While you’ll make more if you sell it through eBay, setting up an account to sell and getting a good reputation there is time-consuming, and maybe not worth it if you only need to sell something every year or two. You could go to one of the resellers like Gazelle or Sell Your Mac, but they’re only buying it so they can resell it for more, so you won’t get anywhere near the value you’ll get if you sell it yourself. If you do the trade-in deal, you get the new hotness every year but you’re actually losing a couple hundred dollars every time you do it because Apple (or your carrier) gets the still highly available sales value of the used iPhone. In my analysis, I explained that a phone that cost $600 new will sell for around $400 one year later and $200 when it’s two years old. I illustrated the value of selling your own Apple gear when I did a spreadsheet analyzing all the different ways you could buy an iPhone from a 2-year subsidized contract, to paying outright, to trading in your phone every year, to buying on one of these free loans they’re offering in the US right now. Apple products retain their value really well, which I’m sure you’ve noticed if you’ve ever tried to find a “cheap, used MacBook”. One of the ways to justify spending money on Apple gear is to sell your used Apple devices when you’re done with him. ![]() ![]() They only sell new books, no second-hand books. ![]() You can find everything from children’s books to young adult novels to popular fiction here, as well as plenty of gift options for the other bookworms in your life.

![]() ![]() Of the feeders we tested, this one required the most assembly. Because it runs on batteries, it also won't miss a beat if the power goes out. It doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but it reliably dispenses meals and has an on-demand feeding button. If you're looking for an inexpensive large-capacity feeder, the Cat Mate C3000 is an excellent choice. Power source: 4 C-batteries, not includedĭimensions: 8 inches wide, 13.5 inches high, 14 inches deep Pros: Large capacity, long battery life, 3-year warrantyĬons: Assembly and programming can be confusing, not WiFi enabled, cats may be able to get into the hopper The affordable Cat Mate C3000 Automatic Feeder reliably dispenses up to three programmed meals per day. It comes with a hand-washable plastic food dish, but a dishwasher-safe glass dish is available for an additional $25. The app also did not notify me when the power went out, so this feeder isn't a good option if you plan to be away for a long weekend.Īlthough the Feeder-Robot holds the second largest volume of food of the machines we tested, its footprint is relatively small. In my test, the battery lasted 21.5 hours instead of the advertised 24 hours. When I turned the WiFi back on, the feeder reconnected to the internet within seconds.Ī backup battery steps in during power outages. I had to open the app or look at the feeder's control panel to see it was offline. Unfortunately, I didn't receive a push notification when the connection was lost. If the WiFi goes out, the feeder continues to dispense food, but the app stops tracking the meals and snacks dispensed. The mechanical whir of the hopper and cascade of kibble that followed were audible from other rooms but weren't so loud that they startled me. Because the dish is wide and shallow, there's no risk of whisker fatigue. My cats ate from the Feeder-Robot without any trouble and it didn't jam during testing. The same functions can be controlled via the app, which also lets you change the feeding schedule for different days of the week and track how much your pet eats on average per day. With the built-in control panel, you can program meals and portion sizes and send a snack. This device required little assembly and was easy to connect to WiFi. It can be programmed to dispense scheduled feedings or keep the dish full at all times. The large-capacity Feeder-Robot ranked highest in ease of use and functionality. Warranty: 90-day money-back guarantee, 18-month warranty, extended 3-year warranty ($30) Power source: AC power source or backup batteryĬompatible foods: Dry and semi-moist kibbleĭimensions: 13 inches wide, 15 inches high, 12.5 deep footprint is 9 inches wide, 11.25 deep Pros: WiFi-enabled, large capacity, programmable via control panel or app, money-back guarantee, warrantyĬons: Less than 24 hours of backup battery life, WiFi and power outages prevent data tracking via app The WiFi-enabled Litter-Robot Feeder-Robot is super easy to program and its app can be used to set and track multiple feedings daily. Read more about how Insider Reviews tests and evaluates pet products. Learn more about our testing methodology at the end of this guide. We tested seven automatic feeders with two cats to determine which were easiest for both humans and felines to navigate. Others feature a tray that rotates or a lid that pops open to reveal kibble or wet food at designated times or for designated pets. Most large-capacity feeders are fitted with an internal hopper that dispenses dry or semi-moist kibble into a dish below. There is quite a bit of variation in automatic cat feeders. And if you need to be away overnight, they'll keep your loved one from going hungry. Whether your pet wakes you up at the crack of dawn for breakfast, prefers to eat multiple small meals a day, or is in need of stricter monitoring of their food intake, automatic pet feeders can take the work out of feeding a cat. If you're running late or forget to put out dinner, most cats won't hesitate to inform you - loudly. Cats may not be as food-obsessed as dogs, but anyone who's ever lived with one knows that mealtime is serious business. ![]() ![]() ![]() But you can dive into its skating antics this 8th February when it launches on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Switch and PC. OlliOlli World - Official Customization Trailer 8,842 views 180 Share Save Private Division 9.01K subscribers Subscribe Take a trip with OlliOlli World, coming digitally to PlayStation. OlliOlli World will, almost certainly, answer none of these questions. Why has no-one arrested this reprobate? Why aren’t the ice-creams being attended to by a medical professional, preferably a neurologist who specialises in traumatic brain injuries? And yet, when he finally comes to a stop, everyone cheers his antics. Soaring up a ramp, this wheeled monster then licks the ice-cream’s brain matter from his fingers and, as he belts back down the ramp, delivers an equally brain-breaking blow to the other ice-cream. Admittedly, we’re not clear on the general anatomy of this duo, but missing a large portion of their soft-scoop skull can’t have done them any good. A pair of sentient ice-cream cones are standing around, just having a friendly chat, when the skateboarder smashes through one of them, removing a huge chunk of their ice-cream head. ![]() The frog is clearly distressed about this, which makes us wonder… what on earth did he have in there? Was he bringing food home to his children? Are his tadpoles going to starve due to the skateboarder’s selfishness?īut that’s just the tip of the horrifying, mind-bending iceberg. Things start to get strange when he bumps into a humanoid frog, whose briefcase explodes revealing with a mess of green slime. It features a skateboarder, presumably meant to represent OlliOlli World‘s customisable protagonist, racing through a cartoon landscape that’s a little reminiscent of Adventure Time. We got a real kick out of the preview version, remarking that “It’s clear Roll7 has poured a lot of love into every element of the game.”īut despite our enthusiasm, this new cinematic trailer leaves us with several questions.

A huge set was built on the Shaw Brothers lot and half a mountain knocked down so shots from certain angles would look right. Golden Harvest agreed to provide the budget required, on the proviso that it include some action. It was screenwriter Edward Tang who showed A Pocketful of Miracles, one of his favourite films, to Chan who immediately wanted to partly remake it. There’s still a lot to like though.Ī Pocketful of Miracles was itself Frank Capra’s remake of his own Lady For A Day, which in turn was based on Madame La Gimp, a short story by Damon Runyon. And the gangster part of the story and the “helping Belle” part of the story don’t always fit together that well – heck, even the fight scenes feel gratuitous. The pacing is really off, with pacy opening and closing sections which contain all the action book-ending an endlessly talky middle where things slow down to a halt – this is one Chan film where the short version works slightly better in my opinion, though I feel that some different cuts should have been made as it’s missing two important scenes that should have been left in. But, even though it tends to be much loved in books about Chan, I don’t think it entirely works. And it’s clearly a heartfelt project too, with its theme of doing good deeds nicely put to the viewer. Technically it’s undoubtedly a triumph, the convincing sets, lavish costumes and graceful camera work really coming together to create a film that’s often great to look at and achieves the old Hollywood feel that Chan was aiming for, while the fight scenes boast the usual incredible choreography. What would happen if they visit the family again? Wouldn’t the same elaborate hoax have to carried out again, with a great many people asked to pretend to be others? Maybe A Pocketful Of Miracles, which Miracles: The Canton Godfather is partially based on and which I haven’t seen, gets around this? But then Jackie Chan’s favourite out of all his films, is a little strange itself or at least it’s one Chan film I can’t entirely decide on. A charade is put on so that a woman’s fiancee and her fiancee’s father believe that her family is rich. It’s a strange premise for a story really. Kuo sets out to help by putting on an elaborate masquerade.… Meanwhile Madame Kao learns that her daughter Belle, her wealthy fiancee and his father are all coming to visit, and she’s afraid that her poverty will bring disgrace to Belle. He tries to to find a different way to legitimately make a living for himself and his gang and opens a nightclub, but Fei feels that he should be leader, while Tiger, the leader of another gang, still wants a loan repaid that the dead guy owed him. His fortunes immediately take a dramatic turn when he renders assistance to a dying gang leader who unwittingly makes Kuo his successor. Madame Kao, a poor woman selling flowers on the street, persuades him to buy a red rose, saying it will bring him luck. In the 1930’s, country boy Kuo Cheng-Wah is quickly cheated out of all his money when he arrives in Hong Kong.
