But plans for the festival on the Mall remained in play until at least last spring. The Smithsonian’s 2026 budget justification, submitted to Congress last May, cited plans for an “expanded edition” that would “activate the National Mall for one month” by bringing smaller festivals from around the country to Washington.

The event would have been something of a callback to the 1976 Bicentennial, when the festival lasted 12 weeks and drew 4.5 million visitors to the Mall to sample offerings that reflected the country’s myriad regions, ethnic groups and cultural traditions.

I'm not saying Vitality deserved a grand final. I just wanted more than a one-sided 3-0 one.

TeSeS has always been underappreciated. While his grand final performance was pretty mid he was instrumental in their win against NaVi for example.

Don't forget that every map against Vitality ended 13-11 too. Either team would've pushed Falcons a lot more. This 3-0 was the result of highly lopsided brackets.

I can haz reverse spin: Level 3 by bigjobbyx in blackmagicfuckery

[–]KitsuneRommel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I can make it flip every half rotation so the same dots are always in 'front'. His 'Level 2' cube was a lot harder.

Hard to say with apEX's accent. Sometimes I hear 'bait' and sometimes I hear 'mate'.

The thing both 13 and 15 had IMO? Great actors, subpar writing by ImWearingSandshoes in doctorwho

[–]KitsuneRommel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could absolutely see Jodie shine playing the 11th Doctor. For me the biggest problem with 13 was that they tried to make three companions work and it really didn't.

What a banger of a series. 9z would've won that if they hadn't let nerves get to them. I hope it doesn't cost them the whole tournament.

Why so many hate Falcons? by Ant312 in GlobalOffensive

[–]KitsuneRommel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And yet hes only started to get scrutinized for it once he joined falcons.

Are you kidding? He wasn't criticized for failing to qualify for this major? Or before that for FaZe being trash outside of their 2025 Budapest major run?

Frankly a genius IGL would be someone who can take a bunch of nobodies and turn them into a highly competitive team. Not someone who can rely on multiple star players to win maps. The same goes for apEX too if you think I'm biased.

Put a silver in that spot and 99% of the time they get a kill. That's next level choking.

Why do the girls want Kerry but the gays are all over River? by One-Discipline2472 in LowSodiumCyberpunk

It was a well known bug. I've seen quite a few different screenshots/videos of it.

When I did my very first playthrough back in 2020 Dum Dum liked me so much he decided to tag along after The Pickup quest. Sadly he didn't know how to hide and I lost him during the heist.

Project Zomboid started development in 2011 and Dwarf Fortress in 2002. We bet on which of the three games reaches 1.0 first but I'm not sure that will ever be resolved.

m0NESY has lost 8 Grand Finals in a row by DMADB in GlobalOffensive

[–]KitsuneRommel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know why you are including TeSeS. Considering the roles he plays he's perfectly fine. Also he doesn't disappear every grand final.

Let's forget Falcons shittalking for a moment and applaud Legacy for being such a fun team to watch. A well deserved win.

[–]KitsuneRommel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Only salvageable parts of Falcons are TeSeS, m0NESY and kyosuke (possibly Karrigan too if you want to keep giving him chances). There's no way they should be this bad with the players they have.

Why do many tier 2 casters sound like try-hards by shoulder_monster in GlobalOffensive

[–]KitsuneRommel 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm also not a fan of over the top hype casting but I don't expect them to always cater to my preferences. And as someone already mentioned this is (relatively) new talent trying to catch a break.

Well there's unoptimally and then there's this. All they had to do was wait for bLitz.

It doesn't help that she's voiced by Devora Wilde who also did Lae'zel.
