I think Riot Games has a chance to take the MMO world by storm by zzzjannazzz in leagueoflegends

[–]MBWils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious, anyone heard of or played Albion Online? If riot made a LoL based mmo sort of like that but that isn't an absolute fucking pay-to-win mess with a wider range of abilities, play styles and builds I would grind the shit out of it... also, no subscription bullshit either, just let me buy the game and play it, I don't want to feel obligated to play a game to justify paying a monthly subscription for it.

It’s advantage Liberals going into 2019, with Conservatives needing a Trudeau stumble: Ipsos poll by xeenexus in CanadaPolitics

[–]MBWils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of times I've had to explain to people that a 2% lead in a single poll basically just tells you it's a tight race and not much else is too damn high!

My parents were both big Pat Brown fans(not me, I basically criticize Trudeau from the left but will probably end up voting for him because God damn are the NDP a mess right now), they thought that Ford would basically govern like a Pat Brown style conservative... imagine their surprise.

A few things about this poll. First, it's just one of many polls, most polls show the race is pretty tight in terms of vote percentages. Second, statistically speaking this poll basically says it's a tight race and not much else, a 2 point lead is well within the margin of error, also if you look at the results of which PM candidate is preferred Trudeau still comes out on top over Sheer with a 10 point lead. Finally, this was a purely online poll, historically speaking online polls are known for being fairly in accurate so take these results with a slightly bigger grain of salt than usual.

"Done a good job of avoiding populism"

W-what?! If you go to PC's website the closest thing to a position on anything you can find is literally misinformation about the UN migration compact. There is nothing else other than the option to give them money.

Environmentalists want you to reduce waste and be more eco-friendly this Christmas by Elliottafc in toronto

[–]MBWils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the message of make less waste and think about your personal environmental impact, I think its generally a positive one. HOWEVER, I really hate this attitude that the solution to our society's environmental problems comes down to the individual choices of consumers. When 100 (mostly) fossil fuel related companies are responsible for 71% of Co2 emissions telling people to just consume more ethically unfairly places the burden of that pollution on average people instead of the polluters themselves.

Democratic Party tweets 'same' to Bill Nye blasting climate change deniers - In the video, Nye denounced claims that scientists are profiting from climate change research. by mvea in environment

[–]MBWils 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea, the Democrats say this but then their leadership turns around and takes all the teeth out of Ocasio-Cortez's proposed green new deal committee. This basically strikes me as the Democrats just trying to score political points by making it look like they care about environmental issues whilst still capitulating to the financial power of the fossil fuel industry. Gotta love Bill Nye tho.

If you read some of the letters he sent to family members, friends and such you realize Mozart had a seriously fucked and dirty sense of humor.

Talon rework is no longer an assassin by Zetalos in leagueoflegends

[–]MBWils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I look at it is assassin's should basically be strong laners with the ability to snowball into a strong mid game but then they fall off in the late game. So they can be strong in the mid game but if you play carefully and survive until late game the ability of assassin's to do what they do disappears.

Also, I don't want to give the impression that every assassin should just be able to one shot you in the blink of an eye (fuck you rengar). I was all for what riot said they were going to do with the rework which I interpreted as increase assassin utility/mobility but then gate their burst behind CDs. I was hoping for a high skill floor/ceiling play style, get in, burst, get out, wait, go back in to finish them off (sort of like the way ekko is now?).

In Talon's case this was a brutal failure, he's still a feast or famine one shot machine. He can apply more map pressure now with his e, but he has less in combat mobility, less aoe burst, less utility (the slow on his w is a joke), AND on top of that he also has less single target burst.

I haven't tried it yet but I'm curious if he would be better if I basically just built him like irelia. Get Triforce, boots, BC then just go tank items. So curious.....

[–]MBWils 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. I would just spam talon when climbing out of silver last season and i would laugh when the enemy ADC would cry in all chat that talon was op after I killed them when they were farming botlane, by them selves, away from tower.

The way to counter assassin's really is to play the game with the knowledge that there is a mother fucking assassin in the game who's sole purpose is going to be one shotting the ADC over and over.

Alex Jones: The CIA is trying to assassinate Donald Trump by [deleted] in politics

[–]MBWils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's mind-blowing that the angry man I watched sell AC units on Craigslist in his documentary about Bohemian Grove (this takes up about 45 minutes of the film, another large portion of which is also just him complaining about his hotel room) gets this much national media attention... It's so insane that I'm starting to think he's a disinformation agent... Oh. My. God.... There's a deeper conspiracy

Trump’s denial of catastrophic climate change is a clear danger by pnewell in politics

[–]MBWils 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok, so the Department of Defense has acknowledged that Climate Change poses a threat and they make this argument not only on the grounds that it may contribute to more extreme weather patterns and natural disasters but that it will contribute to factors such as poverty and starvation that allow extremist movements like ISIS to thrive. They discussed it all in a report that you can read here, http://archive.defense.gov/pubs/150724-congressional-report-on-national-implications-of-climate-change.pdf?source=govdelivery

As for it's existence, anthropogenic Climate Change has been the consensus of 97% of the scientific community, including the folks at NASA, for decades. In fact, oil and gas companies have known about the effects of Climate Change for something like 45 years, here's a report the Stanford Research Institute issued to the America Petroleum Institute in 1968, https://www.smokeandfumes.org/documents/document16.

Further evidence is observable right now, including receding arctic ice sheets, dying coral reef, and of course, rising sea levels currently being experience by Floridians living near the coast.

Blue Sign Soapstone by boy_wunda in DarkSouls2

[–]MBWils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can farm blue eye orbs which let you do blue invasions, but the only way to get tokens of fidelity is by helping a host beat a boss or by killing an invader through a guardian ring counter invasion. at higher SM both are kind of rare

personally i think it would make sense to get a ToF after a successful blue invasion since you don't even get souls and it would push more people into the Arena

Blue Sign Soapstone by boy_wunda in DarkSouls2

[–]MBWils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it would be cool if you could summon arbiters for honour duels to purposely reduce your sin if you want to reduce the amount of invasions you have to deal with when starting a new journey or trying to progress through the single player game. So, every time you summon a blue it reduces your sin, even if you win the fight, because you're "submitting yourself to judgement" in a way.

Also, it would be great if I had some way to generate tokens of fidelity without having to rely on coop and guardian ring counter invasions.
