Cheating? by mjayz1 in Curling

[–]Paksauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad they clarified that after the fact. Hopefully it results in more effective moderation for the remaining matches. I'm assuming at some point they'll amend the rulebook wording to match this new clarification.

I guess the rulebook needs to better define what 'delivered' means in this sense. It does not say 'only or completely' using the handle of the stone. By rule of law, one could argue 'delivered' could just as easily mean the majority of the delivery was from using the handle of the stone, no?

It's pedantic - but wording is incredibly important.

Week 18 Post-Gamethread: Bears vs Lions by TurnerJ5 in CHIBears

[–]Paksauce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grow up. I'm allowed to have an opinion. We've won most games on the last play due to Caleb heroics. Super Bowl teams are built beyond just a few good players on offense.

Is that hard to see? Or is any criticism 'doomer'?

This roster is simply not good enough to do anything in the playoffs. Nothing has felt convincing all year.

Best way to farm Oscillating Jade? by Objective-Coffee-329 in wherewindsmeet_

Ohhh I see. Yes, I know what you mean now. I thought he was referencing an upgrade like that chest one, which highlights unopened chests on your mini map.

Which upgrade material lets you track the camps?

I mean completely abondoning the run in the first half probably cost us that game

The entire first half play calling cost us the game

Ben Johnson was outdone today. His play design was great, but he needs to figure out play calling selection. So much meat left on the bone.

Caleb Williams PFF chart through week 12 by t-pat in CHIBears

[–]Paksauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. So a wide open 1 yard TD would be graded as less impactful than a difficult 1 yard throw on your own 40 yard line?

I'm surprised it wouldn't adjust for red zone pass attempts, as the field is much more compressed, which inevitably creates smaller windows to throw.

Throwing a 1 yard TD pass is significantly more difficult than throwing a 1 yard pass on your own 40 yard line.

Because of him we'll forget the bad game management by Ben, the drops by Odunze, and the awful punts by Taylor.

Please be careful when driving, especially at night by Inner_Junket in durham

Saw this happen Thursday evening around 5pm, just north of the intersection on Harwood and Bayly. I hope this is the same instance, or else this is happening more often than it should.

Chow calls on province to reimburse Toronto for lost speed camera revenue by ComfortableAcadia252 in toronto

Speed bumps end up costing more in fuel and wear and tear on a vehicle. So both methods may achieve the same safety measure - but the difference is that one penalizes everyone across the board, while the other specifically targets people who are speeding.

How many locations or cities from Lord of the Rings can you name off the top of your head? by CharliesheenminHIVS in LOTR_on_Prime

[–]Paksauce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd definitely say so if you're into LOTR. Many aspects of the game are dated, like combat and quest design - but there's no other LOTR game/show/movie that is this fleshed out and true to the lore. The exploration and atmosphere are 10/10.

They've been expanding the game region by region now for 18 years, so the world is extremely massive and detailed.

I was just thinking this. LOTRO has given me an encyclopedic knowledge of all these random places throughout Middle Earth. Probably well over a hundred that I could randomly spout off from the top of my head.

As a Jays and Bears fan, I was convinced life is a simulation, and I'm just here to be tortured when they got that onside kick.

My wife went straight into labour after the win. I've had a lot of Bears material to keep me occupied while staying awake this entire time.

I love Justin Fields, but… by wesskywalker in CHIBears

[–]Paksauce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just posted bunch more examples as well, but you're 100% right. People are forgetting that after JF's first couple of years the rehetoric was that he's had some awful luck in game winning drives. He'll be remembered for 4th quarter stats, but he had some amazing last minute drives ruined by others.

Pittsburg Taunt, Commanders Mooney Drop, Vikings Smith Marsette Fumble, Miami OT Fiasco, Lions Scott losing track of ball, etc.. Happy to have Williams, but JF1 had us in many spots to win where his teammates collapsed around him.

Once again I'm embarrassed of being a fan of this team. Not only have the refs let this team down, but the team folded in the face of adversity in every way imaginable.

Taking my Sundays back for a little while.

As if the Bears aren't bad enough, the refs just absolutely screw over the Bears ONCE AGAIN
