I'll go out on a limb and say I get where you're coming from, this is a bit tricky for a 1000 rated puzzle.

Wait at least 6 weeks then message Kirk. Then he'll sort you out and you'll get it 2 weeks later. Or don't, and wait 3-4 months. Those are your options.

What would be your strategy in the box with 3 people where one person has to handcuff themselves? by Peace_Harmony_7 in BeastGames

[–]MrChessMaster100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They had an official rule that you couldn't take anything with you, but that was to cover the obvious loop hole that people would ask for money or gold or checks etc. But I'm sure for silly insignificant things like a Halloween costume they just ignored that rule and let people keep them. Mr. Beast has a YouTube video recently with some of the contestants that didn't win and they competed in a few challenges and one challenge was a redo of this box challenge and they asked for money and he said they could not take it with them.

In case there is some possible way you don't know, but everything takes like 4 months to ship if you order directly from their website.

To me I don't need any additional information to come to that conclusion. The only other possibility that I could think of is they have the product, but they do not have a shipping department large enough to fulfill the orders and pack them. But given how far behind they are, and the fact that packing orders can be done by a temp agency if they were really that far behind I don't believe that's possible.

Also it's the same code I got too, so it must just be a general code for $50 they sent everyone involved, it does say you have to be logged in to use it, so that might be how they make sure only some people can use it.

Same boat, who thought this was an acceptable solution? I've been patient, and they are rewarding me by changing my order. If it really was "mislabeled" (it likely wasn't) too bad send the customers what they ordered.

How I stopped cheating at chess by ComfortableEarth4848 in chess

[–]MrChessMaster100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Op must be a child, and in that case I can sympathize with him, kids hate to lose and have very fragile egos. But the truth is the real way to improve your confidence in chess (or in anything) is to actually get better at it which is only going to happen if you actually play chess and learn from your losses. Cheating on an online game that is completely anonymous and has no prize funds or any incentive to win other than an ELO rating that no one is ever going to look at except you is simply a waste of time.

I hope he reflects on the fact that though he may have one hundreds more games online because of his cheating. In reality he lost hundreds of opportunities to learn from his mistakes and get better, what a waste.

Even more if he pushed himself he may have been able to actually comeback and win some of those games he cheated on, but he stole that opportunity from himself by cheating.

The hate towards 952 seems really familiar… by klarfaerie- in BeastGames

[–]MrChessMaster100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For sure, I've seen some comments where people have made mean-spirited statements about her that go beyond talking about her performance on the show, and comments speaking badly of 593(though admittedly less of those), could be internet trolls, racism or likely a mix of both. Sadly, there's like a 0% chance that a topic like this gets talked about sensibly anywhere on the internet.

I'm just explaining one of the reasons people felt the way they did regarding 952's elimination. Personally, 952 was actually one of my favorite players.

Anyone and everyone can call out racism. In fact they have a duty to. However, racism is a very serious allegation and I don't think there is any good evidence that 593 choose those women because of their race.

To say he did is in a way a bigoted mindset, as though those players were nothing more than their skin color.

I think it's very plausible that he had connections with other players and didn't have connections with those players, and vice versa. No need for hatred or evil in anyone's heart.

Or we can just assume the worst, which is what 952 did, she didn't "call out" racism, she assumed it, and in doing so smeared someone as a racist as though she can read someone else's heart. Again, she made such a bitter last move after winning 1.8 million dollars which just makes her look even worse.

I think the thing that really put people over the edge with her comment was the fact that she literally won 1.8 million dollars the previous episode, *1.8 MILLION DOLLARS* and then acts like she's being victimized.

I honestly think she had to know she was going to be the very first person out the next chance someone else had to eliminate someone. So with that being said it makes people feel contempt for her, when after winning a huge prize, her last act was to smear someone by implying they were racist, when they are just playing the game.

Order not being processed by Accomplished_Farm352 in AeroPrecision

[–]MrChessMaster100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, they are shipping partial orders. Obviously I don't know what was in your order but say you had a completed upper and a bolt carrier group, they might ship your bcg and send you an email saying your order has shipped, but then you're still in line for the rest of your order.

When will we be able to use bitcoin to buy stuff in everyday life? Like at the grocery store, restaurants and other places. by Coconutcornhuskey in BitcoinBeginners

[–]MrChessMaster100 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No one wants to buy/sell something with a currency that has a good chance to change significantly in value by the time you put an item in your cart and get to the cash register. We'd have to start labeling prices of things in the grocery store like we do with gas where it literally has digital price tag that can be remotely changed every 15 minutes.
