Morning all
I'm voting to close this question

Q: Brick Wall Rating

Outlaw LemurHi I am a new boulderer and have climbed many difficult routes, or official ones for that matter. Currently when I am not able to go out the local region, I attempt to send the side of my house. The brick wall is about 6 or 7 moves, all closed crimp until the last move which is a jug. The grooves...

 
@Liam hows it going mate?
 
It's an interesting idea but this is of no use to anyone going forward
Hate to be a killjoy but I'm voting to close. This is of no use to anyone in the future unless they happen to be climbing your wall which is unlikely (unless you get it into a guide book?) You could possibly rephrase the question How do you rate climbs or something more generic would be more useful going forward
@Aravona Not bad Aravona. Will be happier once I finally move house and can stop spending my evenings packing
 
Hey Guys!
 
That question could actually be rephrased into half a dozen great questions
how do I train using my brick wall
how do ratings work
,e tc.
I can't help but feel that were shooting ourselves in the foot here. If the question had been closed (constructively) we would of ended up with a much better question and answers. As it stands it's only useful to that one guy, now. The answer is questionable. There's no way you could say that's a V2/3 without trying the moves, etc.
rant over
.....
 
8:54 AM
@Liam No clue on things like this but I will supprt a close since I agree it's highly personalised
@WedaPashi hey! Tried that MyTrack app last night
 
@Aravona I did also upvote it :0
 
9:09 AM
@Liam :o
 
@Aravona It's an interesting idea. It's just worded wrong! :)
@Aravona You training for snowdon this weekend?Weather in Wales is Excellent!
I have to go to a party, I really want to go outdoors
:(
 
@Liam you are correct. I have closed and left a comment
 
@RoryAlsop I'd love to see the letter he'd write Chris Sharma
I reckon if you threw in some free weed he'd be all over it
 
@Liam hahahahahahaha
 
@RoryAlsop :-D
 
9:38 AM
@Liam I'm at a party this weekend and the one after... cheese and wine this weekend and my grandads 86th on the 2nd ... training is as many walks as we can fit in at home... lol
 
@Aravona You've said this before haven't you....Memory like a fish with memory loss me
 
@Liam lol no worries. I'm so excited to.go the next few weeks can't move fast enough... and still want to fit in another kayaking day too if we can
 
10:20 AM
Hi everybody.
 
@PaulPaulsen hey paul
 
Hiwdy
Or rather... howday
Howdy?
I hate my phone :(
 
@Aravona LOL
 
@Liam thanks for your answer on my question. cleared some things up for me. Still unsure if I should accept yours explaining the motivation or the other explaining how its practically made, though... ;)
@Aravona So thats what howdy stands for? I hate my phone? Rather strange acronym ;)
This chat is a great way to keep my from working on my thesis. Thats also the reason why I didn´t appear the last days.
(Not that I didn´t find other ways to distract myself...)
 
@PaulPaulsen yes it is... and yes this chat keeps me sane at work... I have a case of SAD and this is the closest to being outside I can get (by talking about it) ...
 
10:28 AM
@Aravona so what´s SAD standing for?
 
@PaulPaulsen Seasonal Affective Disorder... basically a seasonal depression
@Liam ripped Wikipedias definition of shootingfor the shooting tag, as it includes bows and crossbows that makes it rather TGO espcially as some people make their own bows
 
@Aravona It's the wrong season though isn't it?
@PaulPaulsen again, we keep seeing this, I think Outdoors tends to attract numerous answers that compliment each other
 
@Liam I have SAD mostly in winter... I have a friend who has SAD around summer... the issue I have is I get miserable cut off from the good weather at work and with only a half hour lunch break I can't even go out and enjoy it as there isn't time to do that and eat as everything is so far away
 
@Liam that's what I was thinking. Not sure a SAD light can help in the summer
@Aravona ahh - sandwich and sit outside?
 
I also can see a square foot of the sky from my office... that's it... the rest is brick walls and buildings
 
10:33 AM
One of our offices is miles from anything, so we just take a packed lunch and sit outside. In the car park...
 
Could be worse the factory in this
is next door
 
Oh, @Liam - look at the tags for this site chat:

 The Pod Bay

General discussion for space.stackexchange.com. Check our sche...
 
We can't open the windows as it smells too bad in summer
@RoryAlsop ha ha ace
need to get creative
 
@Liam @RoryAlsop I sit up in our lunch room which is nice and bright with lots of windows. Isn't so bad in summer being in the officeaas winter... but I'm still happier because I get the evenings to do stuff :)
Winter I'm a miserable cow. You won't like me then lol
 
room topic changed to The Great Outdoors: it's like Ingress only less augmented reality [euphemism] [sausage-metaphysics]
 
10:44 AM
thanks whoever approved the tag.
 
@Aravona :-)
 
@RoryAlsop I'm happy to go through and do more as well
Snow: like rain but colder

@Liam you're an addict
 
11:01 AM
@Aravona IT's @RoryAlsop fault
 
@Liam yes, yes of course it is
I'm resisting putting sarcastic comments in tags...
 
Best job title ever, my company is advertising for a "complaints apprentice"
 
Hmm @RoryAlsop question for you in regards to tags
Damn where is he when you want an answer :(
 
11:23 AM
@Aravona ha ha
lunch time I reckon
 
@Liam true mine is soon....
 
@Aravona: My manager dragged me into a meeting :( How was MyTracks exp?
 
@WedaPashi worked neatly... did a 1.7 mile walk when geocaching... half hour it took... told us how much we burnt in calories... average speed etc. Useful, going to try it again definitely.
Also found out there is a geocache on Snowdons summit

Glasgow.
 
8:41 PM
Hey @RoryAlsop
 
9:02 PM
@RoryAlsop wow that is some drive. We did north wales and back in one day which was 600ish.
 
9:19 PM
Hi @Weda.
@Aravona - well, I love driving. Most of my family is either in Orkney (12 hrs away by car) or Falmouth (9 hrs) so this wee visit to a friend's place is easy.
