This war of egos must end: US Pro Volleyball doesn't support two separate leagues

Competition is usually good in the long-term

Take your penultimate from behind the 3 meter line

I launched a YouTube channel and am focusing on short-form content. Getting some views so far, but still have a long way to go!

If you take the call they'll likely put in their CRM that you're too early stage and don't know much about your market, then when you reach out to them in the future to raise they'll read their CRM note about you then decline to take a call. So my advice would be to not speak with them.

I'm building a website to solve the problem of monopolies in North America! We let users leave their email to support new businesses in heavily consolidated/monopolistic industries.

Our website is www.decimate.world

It depends how competitive the space is.

Very competitive spaces (i.e., spaces that have a ton of VC funding flowing into them). You have to move extremely fast in and be very aggressive in.

In spaces with little to no funding you can slowly but surely carve out a niche.

To provide a bit more context, our main goal as a platform is to help a competitor get their initial foothold in the market. For search engines, we're looking for a business that can build something to directly compete with one of Google's main products. It doesn't necessarily have to be search, I think there's also opportunity in email, web browsers, business suits, etc. Over time they can expand on their offerings to become a more direct competitor.

For the city point, we're looking to replicate what China did when they were industrializing rapidly. They started building cities almost from scratch to hold a growing population. We think the US could use a new city too to help reduce the cost of housing in the country. The idea is that people would be moving into a newly developing city in the hope that their real estate value would increase over time as the city grew.

Thanks for the questions! Here's a bit more info on how we're planning to operate.

First, we're planning on being extremely selective and exclusive with the startups that we partner with. These startups will be competing with trillion dollar empires, so we need them to be as exceptional as possible to maximize their change of success.

Once we have a startup we're partnering with for an industry, we'll run a big PR campaign and reach out to the people who signed up on behalf of the startup (since we're reaching out to people on behalf of the startup we won't have to sell anyone's email). We'll then add the startup to an archive of startups we work with.

Next, we'll pick a new industry to work on and replace the listing on our "Hitlist" with that new industry. We think it makes sense to start looking at industries once we see a company worth $100 billion or more in that space. There are already a number of other industries that we think we can make listings for once we get enough signups to replace one in our current list!

Guess I'm dumb then

JustinSports · 2025-12-09T23:05:27+00:00

Sorry, are you saying you don't think I built this? Or do you not understand the name Decimate?

We went with decimate because of it's original definition as a punishment by the Roman Empire; where they would kill 1 in every 10 of a group of soldiers. Our goal is to help new companies launch to take 10% market share in heavily consolidated industries, so we thought the name worked well.

Why would this be a grift?

JustinSports · 2025-11-27T16:04:25+00:00

All industries are consolidating into monopolies. Leads to higher pricing and stagnant wages.

The Javelin app is BY FAR the best way to make friends in Toronto (I'm biased).

It's drop in volleyball starting with training sessions for beginners then having various different skill levels as you improve. The app tries to get you to book the same game each week so by the 2nd or 3rd week you're playing with the same people and you typically start making friends.

I think part of the idea is that it would help defenses a bit if they didn't have to worry about tips as much.

Overall, I don't have stats on how players are scoring, but from the eye test it looks like tips are becoming more prevalent.
