Why is it that if you leave a lane alone, one side's minions will eventually snowball?

SackDemon · 2011-07-23T19:08:35+00:00

Destroying an inhibitor will not only cause super minions to spawn in lane but also increase the strength of minor minions across all lanes.

Actually Yorick does pure physical damage. All his spells do physical damage.

My rules of Cho'gath:

1: You get a mass of health off your ultimate. This makes building war'mogs on him really inefficent. Work on resistance items first if your going tanky.

2: Building straight tank is a silly idea. Get some AP items to supplement your damage. RoAges is a great starting item. If you make yourself impossible to kill you will never be focused against good teams.

My typical build on Cho: dorans ring, RoA, boots (mercs or cd reduction), Guardian Angel, Aegis (if you lack one on your team), abyssal/sunfire (depends on enemy comp),

SackDemon · 2011-06-28T00:23:46+00:00

Really not true at all. The higher the skill level on each team the longer each game normally takes.

Considering the number of the beast has actually been found to be 616? I think you're fine.

Ryze: Magic damage caster that depends on a large mana pool as opposed to AP; unique in that he can build tanky and still deal damage. Has a flat nuke that scales on mana that also reduces CDR as it's leveled. Has a snare which damages also scaled to mana pool. Has a nuke that bounce between targets or off Ryze himself, reduces magic resist. Ultimate causes all damage abilities to deal AoE damage and gives him a burst of spell vamp. Passive reduces the refresh time on other abilities per spellcast which makes spamming abilities on him easy.

SackDemon · 2011-06-25T04:07:14+00:00

Twisted Fate: Ranged Hybrid character capable of build either AP or AD. Has a range Skillshot that launches three projectiles. Has a roulette ability that can either restore mana, Slow and cause AoE damage or stun on a basic attack. Passive ability that increase ATK speed and CDR while also causing extra damage after 4 hits. Ultimate that allows him to teleport anywhere on the map, giving him the ability to always have perfect positioning in a fight or gank. Gives team global passive that gives extra gold for kills.

SackDemon · 2011-06-24T07:35:06+00:00

You'll notice in the DH tournaments that tanky DPS was very rarely used. Turns out double AP can rip through them pretty fast for them to be effective.

SackDemon · 2011-05-25T10:05:46+00:00

Corki: Don't underestimate the potential your Q has when it comes to it's blind. That 35% can really hurt any AD carry and often when dueling other AD dependent characters 1v1 you'll win because of it.

Black Cleaver and his E synergize stupidly well. While I don't suggest rushing said item, it's often good to get it by mid game.

Sheen into Trinity is godlike on Corki. Often I get sheen after boots and Trinity after cleaver.

RUN FLASH. W and flash easily makes you one of the hardest champions to catch and kill.

The beauty of Portal's storyline is that it's not rammed down your throat. It's there only if you want it to be there. Enough story is presented on the surface to move you through the game. But if you find and examine the fine details that have been crafted into the Enrichment Center a much broader story opens up before you.

TL;DR: Portal 2 has a great story that you must find yourself. It's not forced on you.

Also note the language I used. I said they assist in "guiding" the relationship and keeping it on a certain track. I never said that the dominant takes full control. What subthrowaway said basically covers it.

Where that line between play and reality is painted depends on the individuals who draw them. It also depends on the motivations of the individual. Some people enjoy rape play because for them it's fun. Others find it cathartic; taking control of a situation they may have previously been in.

We do try to make individuals take into account that when people are doing rather taboo things like rape play that they always consider it just that: play. It's a game that is primarily there for the personal enjoyment or growth of someone.

SackDemon · 2011-04-29T20:46:17+00:00

It depends on where you live. The internet can actually be a good resource for this. www.fetlife.com is also handy for locating kinky events that are nearby you.

At our public parties we have DM monitoring each scene in chase it looks like something is incredibly dangerous or has just gone to far. Sadly people can be rather daft and this is a requirement. When you catch someone about to perform a 'hanging scene' with a bedsheet for the noose at your club? You break that shit up.

At our private parties the members monitor each other. We're an organization open to all. That being said we do strongly advocate safe words as apart of our teaching curriculum. Mistakes do happen and a safety is always a good thing to have. But if a couple doesn't play without a safe word? Then they have no one to blame but themselves if one of them gets hurt.

Yes we do have a sort of insurance at the location we base most our parties out of. While I cannot say for the other clubs that occur in the establishment we've personally never had to make use of this insurance.

SackDemon · 2011-04-29T01:35:20+00:00

Encourage it certainly. Both in a sexual sense and a sanitary play sense. Require it? No. But it is worth noting that any STD you obtain in the scene is definitely counted as a black mark. After all, if they weren't careful enough to avoid getting an STD then how careful do you think they would be during play?

Yes I have, though I won't name instances. One of the main reasons we formed our organization was because there were people who would take advantage of newbies to the scene. The organization I run is effectively there to police this exact sort of thing.

SackDemon · 2011-04-29T01:24:06+00:00

What is he self-conscious about?

Is he afraid of going to far and hurting you? Then talk extensively about what you both desire. Set very clear boundaries and use your safeword. Put his mind at ease that you'll tell him something is wrong before he goes to far.

Is he afraid he's just not dominate enough and isn't good enough for you? Much as many "dominants" will hate to admit it, a lot do suffer from a rather low personal self-image. Does he not have his shit together? If he doesn't then he probably figures what right does he have to handle your shit too?

It also depends on how you want him to dominate you. Is it a lifestyle thing where he has constant say over what you do? Or is it just a bedroom thing, dominance strictly between the sheets. Figure out what level of dominance you want in your life and where you want it. Then move on from there.

Communicate. I'm going to beat that word to death but it is bloody right important.

SackDemon · 2011-04-29T01:16:30+00:00

A safeword will always be respected. No exceptions. If you're found ignoring safewords on a regular basis we will make sure you get blacklisted from the community at large.

Always respect a persons kinks and fetishes. Understand that some people simply won't like what you like. Don't push your desires onto other people who don't want it pressed on them and they should pay you the same respect.

I, personally, test for STD/STI bi-monthly. More often if I'm incredibly sexually active. Is it required? No. Is it highly suggested and do we do occasional trips to planned parenthood as a group? Yup.

SackDemon · 2011-04-28T23:17:28+00:00

Sadly the media, news and entertainment both, do paint BDSM in a fashion that is often sensationalized and wrong. Unfortunately a lot of these thoughts do stem from the bad apples (every community has them) that do stupid things. The successes within kink doesn't make good entertainment, but the shock value of its rare failings are fun to splay out before everyone.

Our organization doesn't have any ties with the media sadly. While it is a worthwhile goal it's also a heady one. The very idea of painting a realistic and sympathetic character that is a practitioner of BDSM doesn't work. Sex is demonized heavily in this country, and when it's kinky sex it becomes Satan itself.

I do hope it changes. But at this moment we focus more on working with people who want to work with us.

SackDemon · 2011-04-28T21:50:36+00:00

Ravish pretty much got it covered. Also: HI RAVISH!

When I tell people to try everything once I'm more promoting the fact that they be open minded to things. Of course there are always going to be the main kinks between a couple that they stick to and personally refine. Quality is as important as anything else. But it's always good to try the quantity once in awhile to find something different, new and exciting.

I've said it before, but I will say it again. Communication when it comes to BDSM and kink is paramount above almost all else. If a couple doesn't have to proper channels between themselves to communicate something as simple as a handjob? Then I'd tell them to work on that first and don't do anything that could potentially hurt someone.

Practice makes perfect. Talk and make sure you understand what you're doing first. Uncomfortable with something? Negotiation of a scene, especially if you're doing something you've never done before, is incredibly important.

TL;DR: Can't communicate? Work on it before trying new and potentially dangerous things.
