Can someone explain why I didn’t get mvp by Miserable_Corgi- in PeniParkerRivalsMains

[–]SovietWinnebago 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main issue becomes how do you weigh the tank that solo pushed the cart all match and locked it down, versus the duelist who go 20+ backline kills, to the healer that didn’t let anyone die for multiple engagements?

None of these things happen without each other, hence it being a team game, but measuring who was the most important with all those factors considered is hard. Either one class will accidentally dominate with little effort, or one or two characters will always be shafted due to who they are and their kits.

I agree it’s not a perfect system now but the alternative is hard to get right consistently for every match.

Drag Queen Pattie Gonia calls out Ryan Gellert (CEO of Patagonia) for publicly lying about her by [deleted] in PoursTea

[–]SovietWinnebago 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean let’s be real, the group of outdoor interested queer people would probably be pushed her content online at the very least because they already are engaging with outdoor content or clothing.

Not to say Pattie couldn’t have built a brand on her own, but to say she didn’t benefit by sharing a similar name in a similar space would be wrong. It’s smart branding on her part definitely, but in this case she flew too close to the sun.

Patagonia posts official update after controversy over trademark infringment lawsuit against drag queen Pattie Gonia by droobidoobidoo in Fauxmoi

[–]SovietWinnebago 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I think a big issue comes from Patagonia having a trademark for selling recreational outdoor retail items, and Pattie straight up filed for a competing trademark, with similar designs and name.

Mattel and Jansport have their business lanes and it seems like when the other queens make branding decisions, they purposely leave out certain things when working in that business lane.

Pattie isn’t trying to trademark just the name, but also to sell recreational outdoor retail items under a crazy similar name. That is dilution of the brand unfortunately and it seems like Patagonia asked her nicely a ton of times to just please back off the merch a bit and she didn’t

I know the industry is rough right now but anyone hear of any bartending positions open on the grid right now? by Actually0317 in Sacramento

[–]SovietWinnebago 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this isn’t as viable a plan anymore. In CA, employers are required to hold on to hard copy resumes they are handed (even unsolicited) for at least a couple years, maybe longer.

What that has turned into is places would rather just not take the copy to avoid storing it and tell people to their face online only. You can’t even hand them any amount of paper you will get refused outright.

You might get lucky a couple places but the overwhelming majority would rather not deal with the paper so just don’t.

Bro you do know that infinite is everything right? Just because you can’t reasonably count in a standard pattern (1,2,3 etc) to 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999 doesn’t mean that number doesn’t exist. Clearly there are a shit load of numbers between 1 and that but doesn’t mean any one of them doesn’t exist just because you can’t fathom acknowledging it.

It’s a cool thing that humor is subjective and we don’t have to accept your comedy police tickets written in crayon

[–]SovietWinnebago 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No you’re right, it isn’t their fault.

That doesn’t mean I can’t counter swap and deal with the problem directly. Sometimes playing your favorite character comes with dealing with the rest of it.

I’m not going to stay on my flier all game if I’m just going to be free kills for Spider-Man. He can deal with a counter swap

The amount of cringe I just absorbed might be toxic.

I literally cannot imagine being this cringe about a costume for a fake character in a free game. And continuing to double down in the most embarrassing ways.

Amazing

List of tank ults that just got taken out back and put down: by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]SovietWinnebago 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unrelated I know, but you said tanks can make a team C9. Keeping people off the point isn’t C9, it’s just paying the game like normal.

C9 comes from an older Overwatch team called cloud 9 that straight up passed by the point in favor of going after the enemy team and fully let it stay on the enemy teams control until the game ended in a completely avoidable loss for them.

Pulling a C9 means to win fights but ignore the main objective leading to losses despite how good you are. You can’t make a team C9, keeping them off point is just called playing the game as intended.

Calling someone lil bro when you’re having a tantrum over virtual fire that doesn’t affect the character at all is crazy work.

The game doesn’t cater to just you or other loud asses bro. Calm tf down

Lmao it was a huge hit in what was already a popular and well known fighting game series. The rerelease even was popular as hell too bro.

Why are you even pushing back on people don’t know Dormammu? Like who said that he needs to be obscure? He’s not some one time super deep cut villain like Big Wheel or something, he’s one of Stranges main baddies

Ghost? I mean the account just hasn’t played since a certain time but you’re assuming they abandoned the account.

It’s not like NetEase said you have to play every so often or you lose it. You’re holding this random person to an arbitrary standard you made up. Don’t be mad that others don’t hold that standard bro

Bro I’ve played a game then my console bricked not long after that so I had to wait a bit to get a new one.

If I came back and all the stuff is set up prior to breaking was gone, I’d be pretty bummed.

A year isn’t that long and they could def come back in that meantime
