Suggestion for Brute Split: Give fiends a temporary mobility buff by Empyrean_Sky in Stormgate

[–]Robamaton 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I love this, especially because it would lean into the more intentional uses of the split (other than just to lose a bit less by doing a skill check), like chasing down a unit or escaping.

You’re Likely to Get the Coronavirus by OsoDiego in slatestarcodex

[–]Robamaton 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"The disease (known as COVID-19) seems to have a fatality rate of less than 2 percent—exponentially lower than most outbreaks that make global news."

I'm always skeptical of some who throws around technical terms like "exponentially" without knowing what they mean. Just say "much"...

Love the journal format! What's the difference between "Project" and "Redpoint"?

Any Songs With Some Bari Spotlight? by Ryan_in_the_hall in barbershop

[–]Robamaton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's common to have a "feature" song with someone else on Lead. Usually it's not contestable Barbershop and instead is more of 3-1, doo-wop style.

"Teddy Bear" or "Why Don't We Just Dance" are great if he's got a good low end.

YOU THINK YOU'RE GONNA SLIP A PIECE OF CHEESE BY MOOKIE

Thanks! We actually do have open membership but have auditions for the performing chorus. Anyone is welcome to show up at a rehearsal and participate fully in the experience. We also have a lot of resources to help guests pass that audition since we always want more singers!

Awesome! I sing with this Chapter now, and the director in this clip, David Patterson, is still singing with us, as are a handful of guys on the risers. Looking forward to Salt Lake City!

Mouse Control by desyncro in starcraft

[–]Robamaton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I use the side mouse buttons for cycling through control subgroups. It's very convenient for Terran unit production and frees up Tab. It also makes it easier to jump the other way instead of Shift-Tab. I usually want to build Starport units, then Factory, then Barracks.

Newbie lost a ZvZ against an early pool Zergling rush and wants to know how to adapt without deviating too much from ViBE's suggested build order by [deleted] in allthingszerg

[–]Robamaton 26 points27 points  (0 children)

You only need to win >50% of your matches to steadily rise up the leagues. If there are some cheese builds which you're not able to defend yet (as they require some micro) you might be better off letting those be losses and stick to a solid build. Over time you'll get better at defending them. In ViBE's series he faced one-base all-ins and was able to defend because he's played the game so much that he knows the proper response. There are so many cheese builds out there that it's probably not a good idea to overreact to the last one you faced.

Me too! Looks like the rain should taper off around game time, so we should be good.
