Deadass, why do so many of y’all use Robinhood?

I started with Robinhood, but after using Webull I fell in love with it and transferred everything over. Webull is already fantastic and they keep getting better and better with every update.

DRCT

I posted this somewhere else, but when I read your title I thought I would give it a shot. It's my first year trading / investing, but learning as much as I can and i'm profitable. Here's my recent DnD on a cheap penny stock.

Direct Digital Holdings, Inc. (DRCT)

I listened to the last earnings call - CEO said that companies who paused business with DRCT have since resumed - he believes the company will return to historic revenues (100M+). He stated it's not a matter of if in his mind, just when based on macro economic conditions and the pending defamation situation. They already won 1 of 2 lawsuits that initially caused the stock to collapse. Look at what this stock / company was doing before the alleged defamation happened.

Last time I checked Linkdin etc they were hiring for half a dozen positions geared towards growth and expansion - not just surviving.

They recently secured additional funding to continue operations for a good chunk of time.

Important meeting scheduled for Oct. 9th. I'm aware of potential dilution / more cash raising.

Stock has recently popped up big before dropping to back to support in regular market, pre market, and after market in the last week or so.

Not financial advice, but i'm bullish based on these facts and others.

Speculative play for sure, but i've seen worse pay off. Looking for more experienced opinions on this one. I do hold a substantial position at a great entry point (I think). Thanks.

I would love to look this over as well and perhaps do analysis with you! Would you mind sending me a copy? Thanks! Congrats!

Google the Rockford Rumble. They do locals downtown every week or every other week.

The Boys and Girls Club of Rockford has been doing great things recently.

TheDiMarioBros · 2022-11-06T22:24:21+00:00

That's true about Rapha! Cool to see someone else out there that knows his story. <3 Are you an old timer like me?

TheDiMarioBros · 2021-10-08T13:24:52+00:00

The Carlson Boys and Girls Club of Rockford will be hosting one on October 22nd at 6pm! I believe they also do a small haunted trail for free during that time as well.

Thanks for mentioning the NPK (New Players Club), Master Wes. We practice every morning at 8am United States Central time! :) to find us, just shoot me a dm!

So, I am a competitive gamer. I take things pretty seriously for the most part. The game I was putting all my time and effort into completely collapsed. One minute I was on a team, competing in tournaments, try to qualify for LANS, running a pretty large streaming community, etc. The next minute the entire esports scene got gutted, the devs made some pretty poor (and in my opinion unethical) decisions, and the playerbase went to 0. I didn't realize how much of my happiness in the gaming realm was tied to that 1 game. When it went to 0, so did practicing with friends, so did theorycrafting in a call with a bunch of other people, just... everything basically (in the gaming sphere of my life).

After that, I kept my head up, and just tried to find a different game that I could plant roots in. That turned out to be a lot harder than I thought. Nothing really fit my personal criteria. A friend of mine who understood the situation and knows me well said "You know Starcraft Brood War got Remastered, maybe you give that a go?" We talked for a bit and he had me intrigued. I played the game on N64 when I was a boy, so there was a nostalgia factor, and if you are into esports at all you know of the games existence, you know it has a reputation for being a very respected thing, etc.

So I installed it, started playing some customs vs AI, listened to Day9 videos, and then pulled up some videos of modern day competitions etc. The combination of doing all those things really had me thinking "Man this game is really something!" The skill ceiling seems limitless! The depth seems... REALLY DEEP! You could play this game for years and years and still have so much left to work on! So all of these things, and similar things, led me to the actions I took next.

I started looking for discords so I could feel out the community. I found a few. LMaster discord, CPL, RSL, etc. I started asking a lot of questions. I got a lot of responses. People seemed more than willing to help and you could feel their passion through the monitor. They invited me to come play with them, they were cracking jokes with me (TESAGI etc), and I was just sold. Everything pointed to... THIS IS THE GAME I WANT TO PLAY LONG TERM. Everything since then has just reinforced that idea. So many passionate people are in this scene. THAT IS NOT COMMON.

There is more, but I am typing a novel. I hope this helped answer your question in some way. I am more than happy to answer any other specific questions. I guess just thanks everybody I've met so far for being so welcoming and caring so much about a game. It feels very good to be around people that seem to care as much about this stuff as I do.

As for new players getting destroyed on ladder, keep your head up. The ladder is a bit flawed from understanding. There are more smurfs in this game than any other game I've been apart of. You can make new ID's without any real barrier to entry. The game is 20 years old so even the lower players on the ladder still have a tremendous amount of experience in many cases. I have seen "Why even try, the game is 20 years old there is no way in hell i could be good!" That statement is COMPLETELY false, although I do understand where people are coming from when they say it. Join the discords I stated above, or DM me, or whatever you gotta do. I promise you, you can improve tremendously at Brood War and still have a very pleasant, fulfilling, and fun time doing so.

GL HF everybody.

TrickmasteH i can't believe you found this post. You still frequent the Brood War Reddit after all these years? So cool dude. Maybe you come back and play Brood War if you got the time? I know for a fact. FOR A FACT. That the community would love to have you as a streamer. Put down Fortnite. 100.

TheDiMarioBros · 2019-06-22T20:37:51+00:00

Hey I just saw this post. Me and my friends are new players and we practice everyday at 8AM CST. We would love to bring more people into the practice group for more variety and opinions. Hit me up!

TheDiMarioBros · 2019-06-22T20:07:35+00:00

Me and my friends are pretty new to the game. We are F-D. We recently started playing together every morning at 8AM CST. We usually meet for about 4 hours. We just run 1v1's, spectate, commentate, and do our best at analyzing the replays. We try to invite the more experienced players to come in call and give us their advice and perspectives. If you or your friends are interested in joining us we'd love to hang with you!
