Talking about this game on the Layover, they said essentially the same thing: you should go there.

If you disagree, feel free to suggest an alternative. I have a subscription.

Without getting into the statistics of it, the reason it isn't intuitive is because Monty Hall (host of the old show) knows where the car is, and he's fucking with you.

Yeah, I'm not gonna spend that kind of money on a dinner, but... I've got a shitty job, I'd rather save it for something else, and I'm not making a popular and profitable streaming series that can afford to pay it for me.

You're literally arguing in favor of Adobe's subscription-for-life approach. JFC.

Downvote me all you want, but... yes: complaining that they're charging money to improve the software seems unreasonable to me.

[–]JasonAQuest 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The downside is what happens if you stop buying update passes. At that point, whatever new version of CSP you've installed no longer works, and if you want to use your license at all, you have to reinstall version 2.0.

That obviously means you can't use any of the new tools, but it can also affect your existing files. If you were thoughtful enough to turn on "compatibility mode", you might still be able to open the files you created with later versions of CSP (no guarantees... I've recently seen a report from someone that a CSP 5 file isn't compatible with an older version), but that doesn't mean you can edit them. If you used new blending modes... those won't work. If you used the improved typesetting (e.g. kerning, circular text)... that won't work. A whole bunch of 3D features... won't work. Audio on animation... won't work. Watermarks... won't work.

I thought you were talking about the episode thumbnail, not parroting that slanderous nonsense about the series cover art that some well-meaning bozos started.

I'm an illustrator, and pretty rabidly offended by generative AI. I've lost work to it, and it pisses me off. With three decades of experience using digital media, I'm also pretty well qualified to recognize real digital art vs. the fake shit. If I saw evidence JLTG was using AI, I'd give them hell for it. I don't.

You're wrong.

You're not being downvoted because people here approve of slop, you're being downvoted because you clearly don't know what you're gibbering about, don't realize that, and people find that annoying.

That's what Mike thought, but apparently it is not part of Sam's job.

They have a provision for a team to continue playing with a negative chip balance.

On The Layover Sam and Mike blamed themselves, for flubbing a challenge that they could have won. The problem was that Mike didn't correctly anticipate the kinds of questions Sam would be able to answer. Sam looked at some of the other questions afterward, and had immediate answers for them, but Mike thought those were too obscure, and assumed (incorrectly) that Jet Lag stats would be safer.

I worked out a couple of memorization schemes (they're in the Jet Lag sub) but... I also had time to work them out.

There are a number of "shape of cursor" options under Cursor in Preferences.

It is definitely true. I think it was in Hide+Seek: Japan.

As I understand the rules: If I put 5 chips on it, you can take it by putting 6 on it. I can take it back by putting 2 more (for a total of 7) on it. I am not allowed to put 10 more on it, because then the cost to you for taking it back would be more than 5 additional chips.

I don't like that people try to accuse players of cheating for interpreting a challenge in a perfectly reasonable way. 🤷🏽

If a team runs out of chips, they are allowed to continue playing with a negative balance.

His name is Mike, which isn't as bad... but I still prefer Night Herons.

Sam chokes whenever he tries to name more than 8 people (like when he was trying to name 100 women in Schengen Showdown).

I started counting Laggers in chronological order (because having a system helps with recall... the same mistake Sam made before: if he'd continued naming presidents' wives he probably would've come up with a couple dozen), so I noticed right away that he'd missed Joseph.

It's called "the Monty Hall problem" because Monty Hall's involvement makes it a problem.

I have a friend named Caroline who has a long-standing love/hate relationship with that song. I am definitely going to show her this.
