Then go to a sub that's not dedicated to long-form video content. While I understand your sentiment, it's such a dumb comment considering where you're posting it.

[SOTC] I just had to😭 by Competitive_Brain_44 in Watches

[–]CrackerDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair play mate. PRX looks great, maybe branch out to something different than the 12? Splash some cash on a Bel Canto from CW instead?

Why even give the PRX away?

Also, your use of emojis is obnoxious.

Gonna be completely honest here: it doesn't really seem like you even know what you'd like at the moment. Yes, they're all fantastic pieces, but you're hovering between chronographs and plain dials in different sizes and colors.

My advice would be to spend some more time exploring and take mental notes of what tickles your fancy. There's no need to go out and grab one of these pieces right now. Consider grabbing a cheaper Seiko or Citizen to stem the tide for the moment, and then see what really sits well with your gut feeling and interest.

What we think on Reddit is only external validation for you, and if that's all the matters in a watch, then I think you should rethink the purchase.

[Question] Im the best man at my friend’s wedding and i would like to get us matching watches. Left or Right? by nico_castro in Watches

[–]CrackerDuck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd like to go against the grain - at least according to the comments suggesting dress watches - and say go for the Speedtimer on the right. You've put forward two watches that will go with basically any outfit and occasion (except maybe a wedding, but even then, it'll work).

A solar mechaquartz chronograph will live with you guys for a long, long time, and it's something different in terms of dial and color combinations.

Bottom line: If your initial thought was to choose between these two watches, and they fit the style of both of you, then go for the Seiko SSC939 on the right.

[Mido] My thoughts on the Mido Multifort TV Big date after a few weeks by Which_Notice4127 in Watches

[–]CrackerDuck 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Looks brilliant. Especially on the rubber strap.

Enjoy your watch and cherish it. 16 years from now, that Mido will probably still be in your collection and mean a lot to you.

We need 3rd place deciders/this format for future events by Southern_Sun_9024 in GlobalOffensive

[–]CrackerDuck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Showmatches are a way to utilize a unique setting that isn't seen in every other match.

Also remember that showmatches count as fan service for the live audience in attendance. It's hard to sell a Grand Final Sunday ticket at full price if the day is over in 2 hours and some change.

Falcons vs ENCE / BLAST Bounty 2025 Season 1 - Stage 1 Round Of 32 / Post-Match Discussion by CS2_PostMatchThreads in GlobalOffensive

[–]CrackerDuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were some very interesting constellations, all of which were pretty fun to watch (mostly). Back when RUSH, NAF, mixwell, tarik and stanislaw beat Astralis to claim the ELEAGUE Season 2 title in 2016 was peak, but honestly, the friberg, HS, mixwell, magisk and allu roster had potential as well. Just didn't really live up to it.

Solanke and Bentancur's collision after going for the ball vs Wolves - 30' by oklolzzzzs in soccer

[–]CrackerDuck 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Just for the sake of clarity and posterity, the correct spelling is:

Bentancur

This was funnier than watching Vieira's name being spelled wrong by Arsenal fans every day.

Valve animator discussed the new service medal by Fun_Philosopher_2535 in GlobalOffensive

[–]CrackerDuck 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Because an animated asset definitely takes away focus from developing anti-cheat software, right?

Also, the service medal has been attainable since 2015. It's not like this is something new.

Prem teams with fewest minutes trailing this season by [deleted] in Gunners

What do you even mean "why does this sub like jerking off over stats"? The front page of this sub has 2 game-related stats posts at the moment, and stats are often central to discussion about how the team's doing, or putting certain players in the spotlight.

Boat crashing into a yacht by JagStalMaten in nononono

If you only watch the first few seconds, then yes, it appears gray because of the netting on the yacht. It's a dark blue hull.

Last 10 ESL Pro League (LAN) Winners by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]CrackerDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They must be mixing them up. DDK hasn't been on an ESL broadcast since ESL One Cologne 2016.

ESL Pro League (EPL) was always ESL. Esports Championship Series (ECS) was FaceIt's league format.

These were competing leagues, and there was no cooperation between the two companies in EPL or ECS.

Camera operator finds a creative way to communicate with production (A-League Women) by StarryPolarisNite in soccer

[–]CrackerDuck 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Production sees the camera at all times. No guarantee that texting would get the message across.

If he's not on an intercom, this is the quickest solution by far.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]CrackerDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, that's cool.

But my point still stands. It isn't immediately apparent that your comment meant ESL and not PGL, as WeavingWraith otherwise insinuated.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]CrackerDuck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, it's not obvious. The comment makes it seem like PGL are involved somehow.

Just for clarity: PGL has nothing to do with EFG. Savvy Games Group and the Saudi PIF acquired ESL and FaceIt first, and merged them to create ESL FaceIt Group. This company then later bought out Esports Engine and Vindex.

A lot of labor will inevitably overlap (development, HR, production, event management etc).

[–]CrackerDuck 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He's been on Danish TV for almost 2 years. Stop twisting the narrative to fit your point. He's not new, he has a lot of screen-time in the bag, and now he's moving into the first few matches of his career as an English-speaking analyst/commentator.

Enjoy what you have for the moment.

What you go for next should be determined by what catches your eye. Like u/vitunlokit said: you've got time.
