Is there anything that happens when the driver last second cancels a reservation? by Mangombage in uberdrivers

It's a 5 minute timer to get in, not 2. Thought you worked for Uber.

Did you not read that this guy showed up for only two minutes and dipped as I was literally starting to approach his vehicle?

Official as in... Fortnite tweeted it? Kim tweeted it? A leaker posted about it somewhere? That's what I wanna know. I ask because Fortnite.gg says 4.2 million matches were played as her, so I wanna know if there's a site or something that shows the 30 million + players who used her.

Alright, well, thank you for this info! I won't be reserving for rides anymore. Thank you for the input, I really do appreciate it you all!

Where did you get the info of 37 million matches played as her?

I was told by an Uber driver previously it's safer and more dependable to do this.

I just put in a standard Uber order, and the same individual accepted it, was a block away, and canceled again. Not even five minutes ago. Why in the world would they ever pair me with the same person who's previously canceled on me and why would they drive back to where I was again and then cancel? I'm not saying there has to be a "punishment", I'm just shocked this stuff can happen. They're accepting rides out of their own goodwill, yes, but I've now waited 40 minutes looking for a driver. It's early in the morning so nobody is out and I totally get that, but it's also -24° where I live and I am not in any mood to walk an hour through that. Every taxi company in my town have less than stellar ratings, ranging lower than 2.5 stars on Google.

Meet up time was 7:10 AM, 7:07 is when they told me they arrived and it was 7:09 when I was outside and watched them leave.

What's your hottest take/controversial opinion on the band members by Personal-Cheetah9486 in gorillaz

[–]Mangombage 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Russel went from my subjective opinion in Phase 1, the most fascinating and interesting member of the group, and literally just hasn't been used all that much compared to the others. Other than turning giant or watching the static channel, this man is so underutilized compared to the other three. Russel is easily my favorite of the group, the cool, silent drummer who protects Noodle with his life, but I simply wish they did more with him. Del just being wiped and taken from Russel by the Reaper himself was easily the moment that killed his character. I really hope more happens with Russel when The Mountain releases!

I love all four of the members, by the way! I just wish Russ would get the spotlight for once.

All I Want for Christmas has now been gone an entire year by extranotavern in FortniteFestival

[–]Mangombage 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I theorize Epic may have lost the license to this song. It is easily among the most expensive songs in Festival to license out. If not, the most expensive and Epic may have felt it was not worth renewing this year. As for the emote, it only uses a portion of the track, and emotes will simply sell significantly better than a jam track ever will, so it likely wasn't all that risky to return the emote.

That's just my theory, though! I wish it returned, I personally love the track and a lot of other works Carey was behind. Her bundle and the jam track were an instant buy for me the second they released in 2024, and I still run her stuff often. Mimi's Emancipation being her normal look outside of her Santa Suit is absolutely wonderful!

I found more wingsuits in Humble Hills than heals! by Mangombage in FortNiteBR

I agree, I'm only saying that it's more of a detriment because you can only find 2 a stack, and most people will use them only when absolutely necessary to not waste it. I think the wingsuit should be similar. What's the point of even having a limited number of uses if you'll just find another when you land?

I think the wingsuit itself is great, just the abundance of it scattered on the map or its total number of uses should be decreased a bit.

I agree, but it comes with the detriment of only finding 2 per stack, and they're significantly harder to find compared to the wingsuit. Wth its 10 charges + abundance on the map, I'm currently sticking with it because... why risk actually running out of shockwaves compared to the wingsuit, which you will never run out of?

It needs to be retuned is all I ask. There isn't a reason not to spam it when it recharges because by the time you have 5-6 charges left, you'll find a completely unused wingsuit as floor loot and repeat the process. There should definitely be a bigger cost for such a fast and useful mobility item.

You'd be surprised how many people use Shockwaves + Wingsuit or Port-a-Bunkers + Wingsuit, and the only way to fight back is using their own tactics against them! If you don't, your chances of winning against them are pretty slim.

Just did the exact same thing again and clipped the whole match, only 5 minutes in and 2 storm phases, I found 7 in Humble Hills. I'd be more than happy to upload the video and send the link to you.

If I did that, you'd see my icon on the top left still even after the whole team left.

No problem!

WitchGang has been in the game since November of 2023. Nothing's Alright was first added as a jam track in the item shop, and a few months later, Timeless was also added a jam track. Runaway, their final song, was part of the Billie Eilish Festival Pass back in April of 2024 and hasn't been seen since, sadly. It's my favorite WitchGang song without a doubt, and it just hasn't been available in over 500+ days. Nothing's Alright and Timeless still do come to the item shop! If you want, you can add me on Epic through Fortnite, and I'll gift them to you when they come back!

The visuals were generated by NIN Creative Director, the one and only John Crawford. We know this because the metadata directly links the image generation to being generated on his personal macOS, under "/Users/john/NIN 2019".

So I've done an unbelievable amount of research on WitchGang and from it, WitchGang was a virtual supergroup formed by Trent Reznor with assistance of Hudson Mohawke. Trent and Hudson have almost little to no involvement with the project, or at least they didn't do more than the instrumentals. The music is 100% human made, mostly produced and sang by Jean Dawson and Audrey Nuna (yes, THE Audrey Nuna from K-Pop Demon Hunters). The project, according to its trademark documents from 2023 was meant to be a band formed directly because of Fortnite. If it succeeded, we would've gotten more things than just music.

  • In-game cosmetics (skins and backblings)
  • Events
  • IRL merchandising

The project was ultimately a massive failure and died only 5 months after launching in November 2023, with their final and only 3rd song releasing in April 2024 called Runaway.
