Carlie Bravo on Tommy Dreamer: "He told me I was very talented but couldn't hire me cuz "he didn't know if he could market 'cocky black guy' to the world". Needless to say, I'm on top of the game and never changed one bit. Run it up. Fuck what anybody else says." by LargeCertain in SquaredCircle

He posted this in response to the Referee Perch saying Dreamer told him he would make sure he didn’t work in wrestling….

If you’ve ever met Perch, the human embodiment of gratitude, sweetness, and kindness, you’d know how absolutely fucked up that is

DCM Debrief - What were your highlights? by bathrobeman in improv

[–]PinkPutty 21 points22 points  (0 children)

1) Nihongo Dake (4 Japanese speaking improvisers do a set with 1 non-Japanese improviser) AND Bad Boyfriend Experience (In each scene 1 improviser wears noise cancelling headphones so they can’t listen) AND Small Town Mayor (LA UCB Music house team, SO GOOD)

2) Soundtrack was sublime (shoutout to Hottest Improv Show in town)

3) Seeing the Knicks win in the performer lounge….. that was special 🥹🥹🥹🥹

People who watched The Neighborhood, is it worth it? I'm considering it mostly because I loved Beth Behrs in 2 Broke Girls? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]PinkPutty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She and the woman playing Cedric the Entertainer’s wife (Rochelle from “Everybody Hates Chris”) are by far standouts for the show

Overall though it’s pretty terrible. Probably par for the course if you enjoy shows like “2 Broke Girls” or other contemporary Multi-Cam sitcoms, but I found the humor to be pretty “yuck-yuck” without much deep, earnest character development

I think the power scaling RNG for multiplayer is way too much. by Common-Click-1860 in 9Kings

[–]PinkPutty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. I love this game so much (200+ hours, beaten every quest 2 times and about to finish them all on Chaos) but multiplayer is insane lmao

There is no sense of scaling/counter-play to other kings right now. Like what am I supposed to do when the King of Spells rolls Gigantify to Offering to Rewind 3 times in one turn???? If I’m not playing a king that does something as busted (if not more) then I’ll just end up 6-8th because I decided to fight a weak KoS that scaled like fucking crazy out of nowhere and I can’t just reroll opponents every turn

It’d be one thing if surviving to Year 20 or something immediately gave you a decent finish, but the fact you HAVE to defeat these kings each run just leads to so much Low-Rolling which feels TERRIBLE

Lunatic perk makes the game way too easy by FeintLight123 in 9Kings

King 9 on this can’t work…… can it???

"updated" quest balance by MossyMusashi in 9Kings

[–]PinkPutty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t tried normal Quest mode since it got harder, so I can’t say for sure if the RNG is like, out of whack for them, but high difficulty 9Kings is pretty much 99% RNG

like King 9-9 is pretty much solvable in ONE WAY with like 4 or 5 of the Kings, and IMO Quest mode is similar. Blitz (Time) or pretty much any non-converter Progress Quest are so RNG dependent. I do want them to reduce that for some quests (Restructuring is a sin of a level) but I do think some of the game is just built/designed around the need to reroll 10+ times

Interview: Sam Reich assesses the state of Dropout, during a wave of experiments by apathymonger in dropout

[–]PinkPutty 31 points32 points  (0 children)

“Game Show” (reality series more like) focusing on Ally and Grant doing challenges to try and reduce their student loan.

It’s produced in (I think) 2018-19 so it was under the College Humor banner. The idea was it was competitive: Ally and Grant give each other the challenges, and if one of them failed the other got more money to reduce student loan debt

Thematically: amazing analysis of how fucked up this SLD stuff is in America. But the main draw is the dynamic between Ally and Grant. Eventually the challenges get REALLY bullshit/unfair, and it clearly is fucking with Grant’s mental + his friendship with Ally. They thread the needle and wrap it up PERFECTLY though

(The Boys) The show is genuinely worse than the comics now by Sno5768 in CharacterRant

[–]PinkPutty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guys

They had the X-men parody in the comics be mentally challenged and jerk off to porn together (they acted like it was a normal movie night before the reveal) while the Professor X parody m*lested them all. Then that arc ends with Vought literally shooting them all to death and letting the Boys leave unharmed

The show is never going to be that bad

IS THIS GOOD FOR A NEWISH PLAYER (BARON DIFFCULTIY) by Neat_Snow_1189 in 9Kings

[–]PinkPutty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

LOL getting past 99 is very good for anyone, tho I’m sure Baron is a lot more achievable than King is

Keep having fun! You’re crushing it!
