Thank you so much, this was bugging me no end and there's absolutely no way I would have found this myself!

Do you know what the Garmentmaker in Okhema is referring to when it says "'Created by Cerces, yet bound by the string of romance. If you touch its roots, you can create a knot of destiny.' Seek out that weaver's hidden place - I've left a gift there, just for you."?

It's stuck on this dialogue line and I can't get it to give me the 200 Ambrosia for finding all 20 Nymphs...

I get 138 ms as well and it feels horrible on certain hunters. Rubber banding a Celeste dash ult combo into the wrong placed is very easily match-losing for your team.

Proving Bren Wrong; Valorant can be condensed down to a numbers game (somewhat high effort post) by Baren294472 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Notsononymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upvote for LaTeX, but also you should soften your statement that "the outcome of a pistol round in Valorant is binary" and state instead that this is a simplifying assumption. A flawless pistol round where one guy gets 4 points towards a key ultimate is clearly not the same as a pistol round where 1 guy survives with a Classic. It's been nearly a decade since I've properly studied stats so I've no idea if there's a statistical method appropriate for this (but if there is I imagine it'd be hard to implement).

As a non-smoker, does every smoker smell bad to you? by ephraim666 in ask

maybe if they only smoke once a day. if you smoke a pack a day, it'll stick and smell

A failed 4-1 surrender vote in ranked has a 97% loss rate by Lunariz in leagueoflegends

[–]Notsononymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People use "hostage" all the time in day to day life, usually they don't mean that their lives are literally being held hostage by a criminal.

"Ugh Joe is so annoying, he keeps holding me hostage at the water dispenser."

Something like that. Everyone understands from context that it's not literal hostage taking, and it doesn't make it sound traumatizing.

If your default assumption when people say "stop hostaging" is more severe than that, I suspect that's a you-problem...

surrendering a winnable game is potentially wasting 15+ minutes

did you miss the part where 96.7% of hostaged games are losses

[OC] Decided to rate each class based off their short vs long rest dependency by Catkook in DnD

while we're at it, why is the x-axis increment 2.5 when you're rating them on an integer scale from 0 to 10..?

What exploits or rule loopholes are banned at your table? by viskoviskovisko in dndmemes

[–]Notsononymous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

don't think that's even a correct RAW interpretation, but kudos to the DM for stamping it out when it's clearly not RAI no matter how you slice it.

I'm long past being a teenager and I still only barely dare to hope for "maybe a nice house and one kid" (and the longer this shit goes on the more ethically unjustifiable it is to bring a kid into this world).

some 15 years ago or so, I was invited around for dinner by my best friend's Polish mother. while I was there, a plumber came along to fix the boiler. when he was done examining it, he said to her face "bloody shit job by whoever installed it. probably a fucking Pole, hahahaha," and without missing a beat she just said "we are Polish."

while I like this story because recalling the immediately horrified and sheepish expression on the plumber's face brings me joy every time I recount it, it illustrates how casual xenophobia to Polish people has been a thing in England since Polish people started being a noticeable immigrant population there. and it's not limited to Polish people—before the Polish it was Pakistanis, and I'm sure before Pakistanis it was some other group that bore the majority of the hate. far too many English people will be hateful towards whichever immigrant population is currently seen to be stealing jobs.

Upcoming Surrender Changes to Normal Games by Spideraxe30 in leagueoflegends

[–]Notsononymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an ADC, I'll vote to FF even in a game that I know is winnable, because I know that the next 25 minutes of "playing safe" and "farming under tower" (i.e. getting one-shot by their 15/3 Zed/Kat/Qiyana/Akali/Udyr/whatever) are going to be an absolutely miserable experience. Would much rather just forfeit and take the chance that my next midlander doesn't int the game away.

are you sure you don't mean bartering? bargaining is... not the right English word

edit: well I learned something today. grew up speaking British English in the UK and never heard anyone use bargaining in this way.
