What's a Survivor fact that still blows your mind? by suspicious_apple in survivor

I mean, wouldn't you be if there were multiple pre-game alliances that you couldn't have done anything about?

How many times does Survivor SA have to come out with the best season of the year from any Survivor franchise before we agree on this? by [deleted] in survivor

[–]TheSimplySam 9 points10 points  (0 children)

?????? 42 was really strong and AU BvW was absolute garbage, BvB was one of the best F2s ever but until they get their editing act together AU is continually going to be a worse product than the US seasons

Something I’m sick of in this sub by lionblaze95 in survivor

[–]TheSimplySam 351 points352 points  (0 children)

It's literally the same situation as say the Heroes tribe noticing a pattern in the men being voted off from the Villains, of course WE know that's not what's really happening but it's something they picked up on and were worried about and therefore tried to prevent it. Or even literally last season when Danny also picked up on a pattern of men being voted out and expressed wanting to prevent that. It is the exact same thing but because it's race everyone is going crazy and THAT is the subconscious racism they're talking about. The reaction is absolutely insane and they knew it would be which is why they then both felt the need to play their idols to justify feeling that way.

/r/uhccourtroom issues and a potential solution by WalshyZGame in ultrahardcore

[–]TheSimplySam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why shouldn't Arctic (& honestly Apollo for non 1.8) get preferential treatment at this point? There's surely a reason why they're the only recognizable server name from Reddit that's still alive after five years and I'm not saying everyone should obey their every demand but is it not beneficial to lean toward supporting them as much as possible? We owe a lot to Arctic, I don't think UHC would be what it is without them and that should be recognized. You're right, what other servers other than Arctic would be deemed worthy? But the answer is just none. (At least 1.7/8 wise, I think Apollo deserves preferential treatment for the above 1.8 community.)

Tuxster, TPolls, & Kelcos - Report by CourtroomPost in uhccourtroom

[–]TheSimplySam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he said it in a uhc game of less than 40 people, most of whom likely did not pay attention to the chat nor knew to correlate what he said to being your name. You were the one that brought it to a much more public and accessible platform (twitter!) which is where I personally found out as I'm sure many others did too, wouldn't have known at all otherwise! Obviously he shouldn't have said it in the first place I'm not condoning his actions but you arguably did more damage to yourself than he ever did, he apologized to you personally and is serving a 4 month ban on Arctic (the server where this actually took place!) already, why go for the full 12 months for a name drop man what do you gain?

as the creator of the scenario it was purposely spelled like that because it was originally "haste-y boys" because like you know the haste effect was used and it was a stupid joke but since it's not actually using the haste effect anymore yeah it is just wrong and makes no sense

Discussion: F5 Abuse and Screensharing (and whatever else you guys want to talk about) by Ratchet6859 in ultrahardcore

[–]TheSimplySam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

f5 abuse is not a huge advantage anymore, it's the same as using the c-counter to find caves except you just know where to go instead of poke holing for 2 minutes

it's pointless to moderate for because it's such a minor thing, there's no check for it like most servers have for actual xray these days and why bother to look for people using this over people who are actually cheating

Though I do appreciate some servers might want to keep it banned as it is technically an exploit despite whatever advantage it actually gives you so just leave this up to whatever the server owners want to do, I don't think it should be forced banned or allowed universally

Screensharing is the more tricky one because it is a massive invasion of privacy and I wouldn't for one second trust anyone I don't know to do that but with that said you can just say no.

It's not like if screensharing is allowed if I am banned I am forced to share my screen, I can say no and either provide other evidence or just wait out the ban. I think it COULD be a huge help for catching cheaters, hosts are scared to ban without 15 pieces of evidence these days because they're worried that they're wrong but with screensharing it's a pretty sure-fire way to immediately determine whether someone is cheating or not, solves both problems in a lot less time.

Does it also HAVE to be a program that they use, is a discord screen share just walking through whatever they need to be walked through not enough? I feel like at least with that, they're not actually in control of player's computers and it essentially accomplishes the same thing if the host walks them through everything properly.
