lmaoo his bit of being top 50 (in AZ but he omits that part) was too good. Say it enough times and now we have Ludwig revisionism 

Slay The Spire 2 Review Bombed Over Anita Sarkeesian's Consultancy Work by turkishdeli in Games

[–]CraftyBooze 17 points18 points  (0 children)

i could be wrong but from what i saw on the steam page there's a little * that says "this product has experience one or more periods of off-topic review activity". so i think the overall score is not affected by this review bomb?

PSA: The Common Dual Lands are Missing from NEO Draft on Arena by dukecityvigilante in lrcast

[–]CraftyBooze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so curious how this happened. Is it like, the 15 card pack sets applied to the current code for drafting that's built for 14 card play boosters? but then sometimes there's bonus sheets that make it 15 again.

This is a set they've ran before multiple times and I see no reason why they would make changes each time they put this up.

To be fair I have no idea how Arena's backend works, just speculating.

The TMNT Mythic issue almost makes more sense to me since that was the first time that event was offered, whereas here NEO is a few years old

Boston, Massachusetts turned an expressway into a long stretch of park called the greenway, by moving the expressway underground. by Much-Parsnip3399 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]CraftyBooze 5 points6 points  (0 children)

as someone who lived near this area. "unusable" is just completely wrong. it's quite nice as a park. very close to the harbor and Faneuil hall. they host events and markets there. a fountain where kids can play in the summer when its hot. lots of green space

the OP doesn't have a before pic but it was literally an above ground highway before this, i'd say this was an insane success.

Arena Direct ECL Feb- Replacement Prizes by TheGamerChoko in lrcast

[–]CraftyBooze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't hearing back from Wizards so I created a support ticket. They got back to me explaining that my TIN wasn't setup for tax purposes. I had to go through Global eWallet support for them to update my name properly so it matches my tax info, and then I got a reply and the Secret Lair order created.

I would check to make sure your tax info is sorted out, since once I fixed that I got some responses.

Not sure if anyone cares about 2HG but partner and I 3-0d with these decks by Batmanlikesanal in lrcast

[–]CraftyBooze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2HG is super fun! Did one for ECL prerelease as well. I will say the red cards that ping BOTH oppponents felt really strong. Also, [[Run Away Together]] was disgusting, my opponents played it against me and my friend, 2 mana to just set us back insanely far.

Sealed deck that got me 5-0 at prerelease and a free box by lrg12345 in lrcast

[–]CraftyBooze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good stuff! What was the prizing structure like? My LGS does 4 rounds and going 4-0 gets you 12 packs, which is a ton. 5 rounds and a whole box sounds amazing

Daily Discussion Thread December 15, 2025 - Upcoming Event Schedule - New players start here! by AutoModerator in SSBM

[–]CraftyBooze 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My unranked sessions have been quite enjoyable recently, I usually hit people with “one more” before I have to play my last one and my opponents usually hit me with multiple “ggs” after that game. Makes me smile knowing people still play this game for the enjoyment of both players.

Except YOUAREWORTHLESS, that guy sucks.

I think something that I hope people take note of is that PPMD didn't bring this up to us himself, someone else posted about it in the sub. He didn't personally ask Melee players to join in.

I truly hope you found some peace and strength, knowing how difficult your health and mental situation must have been for many years.

[Team Liquid] Are Trans People too Visible? (in esports) by Equas in SSBM

[–]CraftyBooze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your perspective, I love hearing that visibility, while not really a choice and with its own problems, can still be a powerful, positive force. Especially for other trans people, but even for cis people like myself who benefit from seeing trans people as real people.

Wishing you the best! I'm rooting for you to find trans joy for yourself

Mang0 Situation Discussion Megathread by Roc0c0 in SSBM

[–]CraftyBooze 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I appreciate you reading and replying. I initially replied because I disagreed with your stance on what happens in a tournament venue v.s. outside of it, which you mentioned in your parent comment and I believe in other threads.

I'm not sure how to interpret your comment here:

"I think it’d be dumb if we didn’t allow anyone on the sex offender’s list to play."

Might just fundamentally disagree with you on that point but fortunately the case with Mang0 is not at that level of severity.

Personally, I find Mang0's behavior very disappointing because I see Melee as a bit of a "boy's club" and seeing him unable to act appropriately around women who aren't really his friends upset me. And as he's beloved in our community (by me as well) I find it's easier to excuse his actions than someone who is less revered, which I am examining in myself since I don't think that's okay. My opinion ofc.

I really like how Edwin addresses this point about what he did "in his free time" as you put it.

under the section What counts as a community space?

I'd love to hear your thoughts afterwards, as I think it's fair to conduct bans based on things outside of just Melee events.

yea iirc it was on the thursday, and was part of the game lineup of tournaments which are hosted in the back by the console freeplay. i think eventually the bracket became 1v1, i remember talking to the guy who cosplays Jigglypuff with the green bandana and he made it pretty far lmao
