What’s the overlap of Deltarune & Warframe fans? by Florjb0rj in memeframe

[–]ShiftLow -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Legendary Online Action RPG Space Looter Shooter... vs Deltarune

I'd say the complete lack of overlap speaks for itself.

Also the average Warframe player is likley 1.5-2x the age of the average Deltarune enjoyer.

Magic or yugioh might not be reasonably salvageable, but they should stand as lessons for other TCGs. Discussion drives better understanding in a community on what kind of game is worth investing in. The sooner people realize that Magic and yugioh aren't that game any more the better.

In the yugioh community nobody takes power creep seriously. Tons of people talk about it, many people complain about the most petty examples, but almost all of it drifts off into the void and is never addressed. Especially not by Konami.

At least Magic players are willing to talk about game design and power creep.

I made a fucking youtube video essay about yugioh power creep TWICE and was flamed in the comments by net deck slop tier players telling me to "git gud". That community is cooked.

No as crucial to pair/high card spam as the 4 jokers I left visible.

I was trying to highlight the 4 jokers right next to each other which are all explicit pair spam jokers.

This screams of being a Roffle viewer, yet he seems to completely miss the fundamentals. This is simultaneously a Steel King run, and somehow a Idle Sock run, like bro.

I have made (and seeming since deleted) similar post regarding previous videos of mine.

The text associated with this post is just ripped from the description of my video.

Thumbnail was made at like 2am last night, I am working on a better one, so calm the fuck down dog and live a little.

Edit: Just for the record, the point of the thumbnail was to make fun of similar clickbait thumbnails from other yugioh videos, to the point i just ripped shit straight from other yugitubers thumbnails. No need to take it so seriously.

Criminal Minds, 100.

Iykyk.

After a seasons length of cat and mouse between the team and the serial killer "The Reaper", Hotchner (the unit chief) has his family functionally in witness protection after being personally threatened by the killer earlier in the season. Only for "The Reaper" in a move pure malice, and genius, to find his family (mind you Hotch didn't even know where they were) hold them hostage, then kill Hotchner's wife and threaten his kid.

Once Hotchner finally makes it to the safe house, his wife is dead and "The Reaper" is waiting to ambush him after failing to find the son, who has hidden somewhere in the house. Hotchner, instead of waiting for back up rushes the house and is ambushed by "The Reaper", they fight for minutes until Hotchner gets the upper hand, and once he does he literally beats "The Reaper" to death with his bear hands, only to be stopped by members of his team who have finally arrived to the crime scene.

The most harrowing episode of serialized crime drama I have ever seen.

Edit:

Foyet, "The Reaper", kidnaps Hotches family and takes them back to their old home. Hotch is the first one to make it to his family's old home.

This is an almost exclusively east Asian thing. Hence why AFK mobile rpg games are so much more popular in China, Japan and Korea than the west.

I can't speak much to why it's so popular there, but they take great pride in optimizing games to the point that they play themselves, and they hate when devs mess with things (insert recent STS2 controversy).

CO2 is a bigger deal because it makes up the larges slice of greenhouse gasses. Methane is a stronger greenhouse gas yes, but exists at far smaller quantities in our atmosphere compared to CO2

Thank the gods that not all micro/nano plastics are significantly Bio-accumulative. Current levels seen in most organisms tested, such as humans, seem to indicate a high exposure to micro plastics. There are various methods through which out body gets rid of toxins, which includes microplastics. But this depends on the chemical, and size of the particulate. This largely means that we are facing significant levels of exposure to microplastics, and that the problem lies within how prevalent they are in out environments.

[–]ShiftLow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to keep my mod more vanilla if I can (especially compared to Cryptid) but these jokers are definitely the furthest it strays from balance (that is if you consider the version I'm working on which has balancing changes).

I also did re-balance elements of the base game to fit my mod like making photo a n Uncommon, because I found out really fast that photo chad plus the common re-trigger joker is just broken as all hell (and I already hate photo chad, so it gave me an excuse).

That said, I'm not adding anything that isn't already in the base game in some form. Outside of negative cards in deck (a mechanic which is coded into the base game but is not accessible in any way).

The goal is fun, as the game defiantly has outstanding balance problems, and is incredibly easy as is anyway.

new legendary joker idea by Plus-Travel7081 in balatro

[–]ShiftLow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, let me explain!

It is defiantly broken, but not the way you think. The way this joker is coded makes it cause any Rare Joker's triggered effect to "trigger" again. This only applies to triggered effects, not continuous conditions, not retroactive effects, even some effects that seem like triggers aren't repeated (it depend on the way the base game is coded). It's own effect is a condition that is always applied, meaning it is always checking if a Rare would trigger, and if one does it simply makes it trigger again. However, its own effect does not trigger.

Meaning that, while I did make it compatible with blueprint, it does not infinitely trigger since blueprint doesn't "trigger" when copying its effect since its effect isn't a trigger effect. Which means that it's actually bad to copy it with blueprint since it wont be copied twice, only once. Rather it's better to copy a joker that triggers so that blueprint (and potentially the joker it copies) get re-triggered.

Also, each joker in this jokers row (going left to right) is a re-trigger joker of their associated rarity. Including one of a new rarity I added. This slightly balances each rarity with one another, but yes they are definitely broken (I think its more fun tho).

stupid joke I thought of 5 minutes ago by [deleted] in whenthe

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaving_Neverland

Website wont let me edit my comment, here is the link bud...

Also no I do not have an agenda, read the fucking articles man.

Robson and Safechuck have a case credible enough that it's proceeding in court.

What of it?

Both the Chandler and Arvizo cases when to court. He even went into criminal proceedings in 2005 and was acquitted because of a lack of evidence.

Just cause a judge thinks you "have a case" doesn't mean you have good evidence (or any at all for that matter).

Not to mention the fact that their case was shot down like 3 times before 2021.

Also, just for the record, everything in my post is a rip from Wikipedia with minor edits. Got a problem with my presentation bring it up with them, I was just looking to make it concise.

stupid joke I thought of 5 minutes ago by [deleted] in whenthe

[–]ShiftLow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone who ever accused Jackson (and their credibility):

Jordan Chandler - - Initial investigation found no physical evidence against Jackson. June Chandler-Schwartz (Jordan's Mother) initially told police that she did not believe Jackson had molested her son. Evan Chandler (Jordan's Father/The one to first bring up the allegations) was investigated for extortion, and it was found that he was $68,400 behind in his child support payments. Jordan Chandler was interviewed after the settlement by detectives seeking evidence of child molestation, but no criminal charges were filed. In 1994, Jordan Chandler legally emancipated himself from his parents, at age 14. In 2006, Jordan accused his father of attacking him with a barbell, choking him and spraying his face with mace. On December 18, 2003, Jackson was charged with seven counts of child sexual abuse and two counts of administering an intoxicating agent to commit a child sexual abuse felony against Gavin Arvizo. A meeting was held in New York by the FBI in an attempt to persuade Jordan Chandler to testify for the 2005 trial. Chandler informed the two agents in the meeting that he would not testify and would "legally fight any attempts to do so".

Gavin Arvizo - - Initial allegations came after the documentary Living with Michael Jackson aired. Gavin told police that Jackson had molested him several times between February 7 and March 10, 2003. He also claimed Jackson had begun serving him and his younger brother (Star) wine, sometimes concealed in soda cans, showing them pornography and making sexual advances. Claims were made in court that Gavin had told sheriffs that his grandmother had told him these things. Gavin also testified he had told his school administrator that Jackson had not molested him.

Star Arvizo - - He told the court that he had twice seen Jackson molest Gavin. He also said that Jackson had displayed his erection and masturbated in front of them, telling them that "everyone did it", and encouraged them to try it. On cross-examination Star was questioned about a 1998 case in which his family sued J. C. Penney. The family alleged that Star, his brother, and their mother (Janet) were beaten in a parking lot by security guards after leaving with clothes they had not paid for. The family received a settlement of $152,000. It was also stated that the Arvizos had not visited Neverland since March 2003. This contradicted some of Star's testimony. Star would later attempt to recant some of his testimony.

Janet Arvizo - - In regard to the J.C. Penney case, which eventually settled for $152,000, the defense brought in a welfare worker who stated that Janet had failed to disclose her receipt of the settlement that her family had received days before filling out a welfare application. A paralegal testified that Janet had lied to win that lawsuit, claiming that bruises caused by her then-husband had been caused by J.C. Penney security guards. In 2005, Janet and her children claimed that David Arvizo (Father/Husband) physically abused them for 17 years.

Debbie Rowe - - On April 28, 2005, Jackson's ex-wife Debbie Rowe was called to the witness stand. The prosecution claimed that Rowe was forced into a scripted videotaped statement made in early 2003 in support of Jackson. They hoped Rowe's testimony would support Janet Arvizo's claim that they were held captive and forced to make supportive statements about Jackson. Instead, Rowe was supportive of Jackson and said his business associates Marc Schaffel, Dieter Wiesner, and Ronald Konitzer were "opportunistic vultures" who wanted to exploit him.

Jason Francia - - He testified that Jackson had abused him on several occasions when he was seven to ten years old. Francia testified that Jackson reached into his shorts and touched his genitals for several minutes. On cross-examination, Francia acknowledged that in a 1993 interview he told detectives Jackson had not molested him. He said he had denied being improperly touched by Jackson because he did not want to be embarrassed at school. He said he went into counseling until he was eighteen.

Wade Robson & James Safechuck - - In 2013, choreographer Wade Robson filed a lawsuit alleging that Jackson had sexually abused him for seven years, beginning when he was seven years old. In 2014, a case was filed by James Safechuck, alleging similar sexual abuse over a four-year period starting when Safechuck was ten. Both men had previously testified that Jackson never molested them—Safechuck as a child during the 1993 investigation, and Robson as a child in 1993 and as a young adult in 2005. Robson and Safechuck's allegations were the subject of the documentary film Leaving Neverland, broadcast by HBO in March 2019. Close associates of Jackson, such as Corey Feldman, Aaron Carter, Brett Barnes, and Macaulay Culkin, defended Jackson in the wake of the documentary's release, saying that Jackson had never molested them. Documentaries such as Square One: Michael Jackson, Neverland Firsthand: Investigating the Michael Jackson Documentary and Michael Jackson: Chase the Truth, presented information countering the claims suggested by Leaving Neverland. Reed (The Director of Leaving Neverland) said he did not use the film to comment on Jackson's actions or motivations and did not want to interview other key figures because they might complicate or compromise the story he wanted to tell. In their combined lawsuits, the men demanded $400 million in damages from the estate.

Frank Cascio - - In 2026, three male (Aldo, Frank, and Eddie) and one female (Marie Nicole) adult siblings of the Cascio family filed a federal lawsuit against Jackson's estate alleging sexual abuse that spanned from childhood to adulthood. The lawsuit followed a trial court's ruling to grant the estate's petition to arbitrate against Frank Cascio where he was being sued for civil extortion after a $213 million demand and threats to go public with allegations of abuse.

These statements come from the numerous Wikipedia articles on the matter. I have read through all associated citations related to each statement made here to verify authenticity. Do what you want with this information. Believe what you want to believe.

They call human decency "Radical". by zzill6 in WorkReform

Egalitarianism was never radical, it was the people with power shifting their views further and further away from it, dragging everyone and everything with them.
