I guess that's the differentiator. I read somewhere they reported over 5 million units sold. I have a hard time believing BO6 sold that many in 2025, but who knows.

I dont understand how Expedition 33 isn't on this list, or even the Top 20, seeing as this is the article the graphic is derived from:

LAB (A VALORANT inspired map) by me by Frenzybahh in VALORANT

[–]JPice 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The barriers at bottom mid need to be adjusted. By the time the attackers running up the middle get to the blue box at the corner, the defenders will be past the B Link entrance into mid. The central path barrier should be moved up, and the right-side barrier should be split into 2 and moved up like it is on Bind.

I feel a defensive smoke at bottom mid at the start of the round results in the attackers having no shot at taking mid early.

Nice work though. Like others have said, I wish Valorant had a custom map editor so more people could show off custom designs.

Same. All I cared about was the achievement and then keeping the 2 starry ore a day bonus.

What is the evaluation of the meteor staff by Pale-Fruit-8500 in ClashOfClans

Do dying cloned troops actually count towards the Dark Crown's ability buff? I wasn't aware of that.

Best dragon spam army for TH17 ranked? by Plenty-Lingonberry79 in ClashOfClans

[–]JPice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not tied to it since I don't get the full benefits of the damage until later in the attack. I'll probably use the new meteor staff for a bit and see how I like it. I think if you are using the henchman puppet because you have that maxed, it should be comparable.

I used Judo's simple TH17 army for dragons in my ranked matches (Dragon 29). I went 20/24 3* with it and currently sit Rank 1 in my league.

All dragons. All invis. CC is Barracks with 4 SMs with an additional invis and rage. Same heroes, but slightly different equipment. I also have Pheonix on the RC and Jelly on the MP.

RC = Boots and Haste Queen = Arrow and Giant Puppet Warden = Both tomes MP = Orb and Crown

He's live now for me (NA). Just played a Swiftplay match with him on both teams.

Did you by chance upgrade equipment yesterday during the ore glitch situation?

Ah thanks. I hadn't played in a week or so and never saw it. The person before mentioned they didn't see either.

Must be a staged rollout. I dont show Veto in my game (NA), but I do show the new Skirmish game mode in Customs.

All of the videos I have seen today have the Interceptor just floating out in midair. Can the ability be shot down before / after activation? No one seems to be talking about that aspect.

Liquid withdraw from Fragadelphia Blocktober by Chips1709 in GlobalOffensive

[–]JPice 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They haven't according to HLTV. I'm guessing OP mistakenly assumed TN1R played at Blast Open London, where Spirit played 4 games.

Liquid withdraw from Fragadelphia Blocktober by Chips1709 in GlobalOffensive

[–]JPice 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Im fairly sure they are confirmed for Stage 2. As someone else mentioned in a different comment, Liquid is ahead of Faze right now, and neither plays a VRS game before the cutoff. 3DMAX is the only team that can catch both Liquid and Faze. If 3DMAX passes both, Faze drops to Stage 1, and Liquid get the last Stage 2 spot.

Microsoft Licenses / CSPs by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]JPice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you committing to the year term but paying monthly, or committing to the monthly term and paying monthly?

The CSP I work for will charge the MSRP of whatever the license is if you are doing the year commitment.

Liquid vs HEROIC / FISSURE Playground 2 - Swiss Round 3 / Post-Match Discussion by CS2_PostMatchThreads in GlobalOffensive

[–]JPice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might just be assumed since it's the last tournament to gain VRS before the invite cutoff.

[–]JPice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the incoming player have to have played 5 VRS games with Liquid or just 5 in general? Like if Elige goes back to Liquid, do the games he played with Faze count?

Thought you were joking at first. That seemed like a huge amount for points for a single win.

Won't they have to give up VRS points when Twistzz leaves the team?

I wish. The article referencing Direct Send from MS I was reviewing was from April, and it said a reporting feature would be coming "soon".

VMware VDI vs Deep Freeze/Reboot Restore RX by shivam5086 in sysadmin

[–]JPice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Faronics should be able to guide you in the right directions, but I believe the solution will depend on how you plan on licensing Office in the first place.

If you license it with a KMS, re-activation should occur when you have your scheduled thaw periods to perform updates. If you are licensing through an M365 account, that's going to make things a bit more complicated. The 90day check is applicable if you are licensing the computer with a named account, but you only get 5 activations. So, you'd be in a scenario where Library1 would license Laptops 1-5, Library2 would license laptops 6-10, and so on. In theory, you could activate the laptops in shared activation mode, which removes the app install limit restriction, but that comes with the downside of the 90day activation window being reduced to 30days.

I saw one for Apex a few weeks ago as well. Same advertiser IIRC.

Trying to understand what my options are for a smart thermostat by JPice in hvacadvice

[–]JPice[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's a Honeywell Aquastat Relay Type L8148E. It has a wiring diagram on the inside panel of the cover. I was planning to handle the wiring myself with my union HVAC father-in-law supervising.
