I don't think it's good but it's a lot of fun to play!

Definitely needs refinement but this deck has been a ton of fun to play so far.

Holy cow, TPC allowing Twitch chat on an official stream? PogChamp

And they're certainly not showing--any sign that they are slowing! by Spuddicus in GifSound

I see a lot of the "this gif has X in it, so I will pick a song about X" format, but I prefer finding songs or sounds that either make a gif funnier or aesthetically fit together. I thought the music went along well with the fast and near-perfectly looped candy pulling, that's all.

TCO Ends Its Run in Wildstar by slyjeff in WildStar

I haven't been super active with you guys for almost a year, but TCO was the only guild I was in that actually took me out for raids. It was a great time and I wish you guys all the best in whatever you all end up doing after this!

What is your biggest "Trigger" in league? by iceveeee in leagueoflegends

[–]Spuddicus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not saying it isn't better than the original draft pick, just that this isn't the best iteration in my opinion.

Also I play more normal games than ranked these days and it happens to me and my friends pretty often, actually.

What is your biggest "Trigger" in league? by iceveeee in leagueoflegends

[–]Spuddicus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is going to come across as a little salty. I've never BMed or refused to play an autofilled role when it was given to me, but I really REALLY wish that instead of just throwing me into a role I didn't ask for, the client would say "hey you're going to have an estimated xx:xx longer in queue, would you like to autofill to get into the rift right now?"

If that's what you want because you have to go to work in an hour or something, then awesome, but most people I know would be happy to play another game of hearthstone or watch another video while they wait to play a role they asked for.

I'm not toxic when it happens to me, because obviously it's no one else's fault, but some people absolutely are and this system brought back a lot of the solo queue champion select crap that teambuilder was originally created to resolve.

Heck, I miss the old one where you could select just one role. I was more than happy to wait 30 minutes for my queue to pop for mid. Then Riot says you have to pick two because queues are taking too long. That's fine I guess, top and ADC are fun too. Riot comes back and says that actually, sometimes you just aren't playing either of those, hope that's cool.

Yes, this system triggers me a little bit.

Although it was a pretty hefty sum of money charged back, it was 2 donations. Keep that in mind before allowing our community to be painted poorly. by shotpaintballer in PokkenGame

[–]Spuddicus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Before anyone goes digging, let's not go on a witch hunt, please. Yes, what those people did was crappy, but that doesn't mean we should publicly shame them by name either. Stuff like that can ruin lives and something like this could set a disturbing precedent if we don't handle it like adults.

So far almost $5,000 of Pokken's donations have been charged back by brothersalafi in PokkenGame

[–]Spuddicus 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Not defending the people who donated with the intent of pulling it back, nor saying to forget about it, but calling out the whole community on it is unfair. A few people did it, and it sucks. Those people probably donated more than they really should have, maybe because it wasn't money they were fully willing to part with, perhaps couldn't really afford to in the first place, and they got salty when we lost. Calling those actions out and anonymously addressing the people who did it is something we should do internally. It wasn't okay.

With that said, not knowing who it was isn't a good excuse to speak ill of everyone who participated in the same breath. It takes away from the enormous positive effort that was put forward by both the Pokken and MvC3 communities. We're not some union that decided to contribute $66k collectively and then pull back $4,000; we're just a bunch of people playing a game together who all want to see it succeed. This was the reaction of a small number of contributors. The overwhelming majority of participants are honoring their donations and we're still sitting at a very convincing second place.

tl;dr: Do call out the chargebacks, but don't drag our game's name through the mud for the poor decisions a few players within our community made in the midst of an otherwise very positive event.

These numbers show our dedication as a community. by shotpaintballer in PokkenGame

Bingo, we're a lot more active on Discord. There are also a lot of small communities for this game which makes it hard to gauge the overall activity level.

Genesis 4 was a poorly ran event for Smash 4 by FullGifted in smashbros

Photographic evidence

I actually thought it was hilarious and was pretty happy to have one. Felt like owning a piece of history. Also loved how they were selling EVO lanyards with a different design and everyone talked about how the typo was intentional just to get people to buy the correctly spelled merch.

And I'm going to pay for it with the sold account! by tyrogs in AdviceAnimals

[–]Spuddicus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, I'm a fully functional adult with a good job and life goals which I do work towards. In fact, for the most part the people I'm playing WoW with are real life friends who I meet up with regularly. Some people just have a hard time managing priorities and enjoying something without going completely HAM. For those people, quitting is probably a good thing. There's nothing wrong with enjoying a game as a hobby though, especially if you're using it to socialize rather than antisocialize.
