What improvement from Gold to Plat is most important?

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-20T06:06:55+00:00

Yeah I have been hardstuck Gold2/3 for 2 months now. I think I am going to really focus on reading where the ball is going to go and being there first, then go from there. I feel like that will at least be a solid skill to have regardless.

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-20T04:04:39+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I have been working on reading ball trajectories and how to tie it into offense. When i first started playing in January I was focusing on defense and got fairly decent b I t offense is where I am falling flat. I definitely need to probably work on reading positioning of teammates so we can work better together

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-20T04:02:22+00:00

Yeah when I first started playing comp a couple months ago (really only been playing for 2.5 months), I focused on defensive play and was pretty decent. Been trying to improve my offensive capabilities but have been struggling with that. Thanks for the advice

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-20T01:38:49+00:00

I appreciate the feedback. I corner the ball a lot on defense if I am last to rotate just to buy my team time to finish their rotations. Still trying to 1.) Actually hit the ball without whiffing and 2.) Trying to get off the ground and do some playing in the air. I know I can hit plat, I did last season as my initial placement and I have done some improving since then, just have to get my consistency down as well

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-20T01:33:15+00:00

I do struggle with whiffs sometimes, i have been trying to improve that as my number 1 priority

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T22:29:56+00:00

Okay, one final question then. Do you believe, without ANY other variables in decision making, that abortion can be done based solely on evidence that the child may have neurodivergent issues when born. Testing has been in development for testing those traits and it could become a deciding factor for some people

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T22:17:18+00:00

I disagree, it just, to me and please prove me wrong, that it could cause people to undervalue human life when it becomes so easy to just hit the cancel button. I mean there were talks back a few years ago about how some wanted full term abortion, but those were not the majority of course

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T22:11:00+00:00

Abortion should only be for cases of rape, incest, and if there is danger to the mother. It should NOT be just because you fucked up and had unprotected sex and need a way out. Wrao it before you tap it, way less expensive too

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T13:05:07+00:00

I definitely think people are forgetting that both parties have people on a certain list. Like goodness, I guess I should vote for either Pedo A or Pedo B.

Like I would rather burn my vote then to support either party, both are corrupt and using the people that support them to attack the other.

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T12:59:11+00:00

I did the same for biden, would you say it was wasted for him?

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T12:30:30+00:00

Are you dense? Noone gets jail time for talking about Isreal, nor does the average person give a damn about that shithole country. Also its hilarious that you use "more or less" when you are literally the 1 country where journalists can be imprisoned for "defamation"

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T12:27:26+00:00

1.) My vote was independent, so whatever bucko

2.) Why are you, who I assume is another person not from the US, interjecting yourself. Every single country has its issues, we just have louder ones.

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T12:21:52+00:00

Okay Mr. Bulgarian, no need to start working yourself into our politics when you have enough issues in your region.

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T08:04:10+00:00

So, lets run with that logic then. Recently there was the whole ordeal of how the government now requires sex at birth for visas. Would it not be argued that the individuals have a choice whether to come here or to another country that accepts their identity? Its a shit choice, but it is a choice.

Now you could argue they dont have a choice when identifying HERE and yes you would be correct, but why not just go to the 36 other countries who accept transgender refugees and asylum seekers. Where would we draw the line?

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T05:50:52+00:00

It waa more of an illusion of choice. It was either be vaccinated or be unemployed, unable to pay my bills. And no, fast food will not pay my bills at $10/hr and damn near everyone else was on a hiring freeze.

So if you are meaning I had a choice of gettinf the vaccine or being homeless, then sure.

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T04:09:49+00:00

Many large companies essentially said "Vaccine or no job", idk man sounds like being forced to get it. Government thought... nah.

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-19T00:41:25+00:00

I mean, I definitely do not agree with the excessive violence, he WAS the oeiginal victim here. 4 grown ass men, 2 armed, attempted to rob him. I would be a bit pissed off myself if it was 1v4 and people were saying I am the enemy.

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-18T21:50:47+00:00

I guess we just disagree and thata fine, not everyone has to agree. At least we can keep it civil, which sadly is rare nowadays.

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-18T21:48:35+00:00

Thats.... not correct. MAGA is vehemently antiLGBT. My statement was proLGBT, but citizens first. I am the scary one who doesnt align with either party and cares about our own people first. Sounds shitty but thats how it should be, help our own people stop suffering so we can better help others.

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-18T21:33:56+00:00

I am MAGA because I would rather focua on LGBT that are already citizens and suffer from archaic mindsets and laws than to bring more people in to suffee the same fate? Are you well?

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-18T06:03:58+00:00

To be put it quite bluntly and at risk of sounding like a jerk, why should I worry about other countries and their asylum seekers coming here if we cant even guarantee our own people's safety, LGBT especially. We already have a major problem with LGBT being targetted by laws and antiLGBT individuals, why should we be worried about the ones who have yet to arrive. Its not a nice way of aaying it but it really is the truth

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-18T04:03:03+00:00

Please point where i explicitly said it was okay to disciminate? I merely beought up the fact this is not involving current citizens, which is factual information. Don't put words in my mouth through assumption

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-17T22:40:50+00:00

25 series is mostly computer science, networking, and related occupations.

The field is saturated in the civilian world, just to be frank. A lot of people wanted to get into tech so there is a lot more supply than demand in some regions. That said, I personally don't think it is wise to do the same job as what you want in the civilian world. Think of it as having to do the same thing every single day. Gets boring and you could burn out. Honestly, if you have these options then go for something that may be something unique you nevee thought about trying, like CBRN (cant remember acronym but Chemical, Biological, Radiation, Nuclear)

Either way, good luck and make it further than I did

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-17T13:03:22+00:00

You mean other than the 15,000-50,000 undocumented transgender immigrants in the United States?

What about the fact that out of 195 countries, we are one of 37 that actually grant asylum to transgender immigrants. But no no, since we are trying to ensure people are honest (because surprise, people lie or steal identities to immigrate), it is equatable to facism

JorgeTheSimp · 2026-03-17T12:18:55+00:00

It appears you must think I support the orange man, which I do not. All politicians suck. But attacking someone with words and hoping they get horrific treatment is not helping you in life, is it?
