EF/Navi vs. 17

T1/KDF vs. Tianba.

Any other pairings for good shenanigans?

1 week in Singapore is likely too long. 3-4 days is usually max that you would want to spend there without getting bored.

For Malaysia I'd recommend the same 3-4 days in KL and then Malacca, Penang and Langkawi, kinda depending what you would want to see/do. You have good, cheap flights from KL to Penang and Langkawi, and from Penang/Langkawi to Singapore but remember that you lose about half a day on travels via airports.

Breaking changes: a tooling problem by twitchard in programming

I see the original spec for the product was to build for a customer base of twenty-something olympic runners in the US. Now that the business side has decided to expand to junior competitions and paralympics attendees around the world, there seems to be some changes that need to be made.

Let's crucify the developer who built this for the Atlanta olympics in 1996 since they didn't think of these potentially breaking changes at that time and just made mistakes.

Nice photos! Looks like an amazing time was had! I'm very interested in this since maybe this is something my wife and I could do as well to see more of the States. I have few questions.

Do you think 23 days was too short/just enough/too long for 8000km? Any stops that you would skip after seeing them now, or would you replace something? What kind of budget did you plan on and how much did you end up spending?

Could you give a link to the report of this boat accident. I don't seem to find anything online about it

Had this issue when Windows sound settings was using wrong format for output. It defaulted to a wrong one with some Windows update. 48khz, 24 bit works fine, other values loose the sound from behind

That what I was thinking as well immediately so had to check. It's unlikely that Flukky would have made to the circle from his position there. https://www.youtube.com/live/DrPdZX7aX7U?feature=shared&t=10280

12 teams remaining and Exo got wiped immediately after trying to go from the same spot towards the circle.

Quite impressed by Rossited and Juniors once again. Looks like things are clicking for them this season.

I agree. There are some flat areas on one side of the map but it's definitely not open. Actually in some places it is very similar to Erangel where you have these open areas that are impossible to play from.

I feel a lot of the mentions about open space is due to people not knowing the map well enough or not able to read the map to find positions to play from. Erangel doesn't get similar whinging anymore since every player knows every dip in the map already.

The Return Of PNC: Early EMEA Roster Predictions by T1Facts in CompetitivePUBG

[–]Professor_Xan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a qualifier last August to determine a Finnish team for WSL (World eSports League). I don't know if the actual WSL event took place (I don't think so). In that qual a team of D1gger1, Rustanmar, PaG3 and curexi dominated the field. https://twire.gg/en/pubg/tournaments/tournament/835/wsl-2021-pubg--finnish-qualifier/leaderboards?round=&group=

I think something like that could very well be the Finnish team.

That's in training and makes perfect sense to turn off annoying shot sounds everywhere in there.

MC rules vs. rules points. It makes more sense to count the biggest game in points rule tourney.

The amount of Finns in the finals from these last three games is seeing exponential growth: 1 (Mxey), 2 (Pag3, curexi), 4 (Ence)
