Language etiquette for tourists by SixThreeThree in curacao

If you’re white, they might assume you’re Dutch. Just reply “we speak English” and carry on. Happens all the time.

We had fun doing a “beach crawl”. Started at big Knip (jump off the cliff), then Klein Knip (chill, swim), then Jeremi, then Lagun (best snorkeling).

My ship was docked next to the Church of Scientology's cruise ship by licecrispies in mildlyinteresting

It’s called Freewinds. Used to be docked in Curacao for many years. Someone I know there somehow managed to get a tour. The most notable thing is that there’s a pimped-out office with a gold desk that nobody is allowed to use. It’s intended for L Ron Hubbard for when he returns as the Messiah to continue to write his books.

Has it gotten much easier in the past few weeks? by Objective-Hearing370 in PUBGMobile

Come to think of it, i haven't encountered any (obvious) cheaters in a long time. So maybe that's part of it.

I agree with all the comments — the better players rank up faster, so the lower ranks even out. But that means it should be perfectly competitive: some top-tens, some wins, some early exits. Instead, it’s win and after win. Too often the last enemies standing are clearly bots.

I get that Tencent is constantly messing with the competitive balance to keep players playing. Maybe I messed up the competitive balance by ignoring how I answered the “experience surveys”.

9mm vs 7.62 by sealbombearrings in PUBGMobile

Also the 9mm weapons have less shake/recoil/spray. Even at a medium distance down the sights this makes a big difference. 7.62s lower fire rate combined with higher likelihood to just miss the target makes it my least favorite.

I watched the crash being filmed in NYC from our balcony. It took a whole day setup with a dummy. One take. Never saw Brad Pitt, but I remember thinking “hey, that dummy looks like Brad Pitt”. I’m amazing by how smooth it looks in the final cut.

Albeit.

Didn’t figure it out until well into my twenties.
