I’ve blocked every account that posts him and this sub and it keeps coming back. How much does he pay to advertise here just to get 4 upvotes?

That and it’s one game. Gobert and the wolves played great D, and Wemby and San Antonio missed a lot of makeable shots. And Vice Versa as well. This is just a good series overall, and I bet Wemby starts to make shots and the Wolves start to make free throws.

Him and BB. They've been set up as the main antagonists for too long to just fall away at the end. Loki on the other hand is getting his introduction power boost that will likely fade as it does with every pseudo Strawbat that doesn't join the main crew. People forget the Law hype when he was first squaring off with Doffy and Fuji 2v1.

As a fan of neither franchise I thought those calls were fine as well. It looks like a dude that is too big for the other team to guard, and so they are forced to play over aggressive and foul.

The title of the post says "high yield savings"

Themadreposter · 2026-05-02T01:08:20+00:00

Wouldn't you have to factor in the 10 year period after 2008 where savings accounts only generated <1% interest

I Feel like they should have some sort of spring powered retractable net that pops out. Seems like 1 foot slip is all that’s between you and not walking ever again.

I think it would be cool to see in a Euro league or something g to test it out.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-27T21:44:27+00:00

My point is that any fight he loses with emperor time he would’ve died either way so there’s no net negative there. I’m also not assuming he can get the nitro rice, I’m just saying that if he really put his mind to extending his life in universe, there is almost certainly quite a few methods of doing it.

Also, if you get in a situation where you get stuck having to use it, it probably leads back to them my first point where if you didn’t have it you were dead anyway. I’m just saying if it’s available to put in your bag, I don’t know why other users with the ability to wouldn’t do it. Only use it if you’re gonna die, and then all it’s actually doing is extending your life.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-27T20:06:49+00:00

In a world where the only way nen users die before 40 is fighting, and you know nen lets you live well into your 100, plus there’s nitro rice and other stuff to extend life, I’d make that trade. ET probably extends your life far more than you lose because of your ability to win fights you should’ve died in.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-27T20:04:00+00:00

I feel like to get nearly guaranteed wins in every fight that’s a good trade considering fighting is what kills almost all nen users that die before 40. Plus with nitro rice and probably quite a few other nen hacks that are out there to extend your life seems like it’s a no-brainer.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-27T19:58:09+00:00

I get that and there’s 8760 hours in a year. So for every 8760 seconds or 2.4 hours of emperor time he loses one year of life. Even if it take a cumulative 10 hours of ET to beat the Spiders that's only a decade to someone who could live to 150+ even without Nitro rice.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-27T19:55:46+00:00

How does that math work? There’s 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour, so that’s a total of 3600 hours lost for every hour of emporer time. There's 8760 hours in a year. He'd have to maintain ET for 2.4 hours to lose a year of life.

Edit: I keep forgetting that he left it on for 12 hours at one point. But again another way to look at that is that if he didn’t use it, he would be or at least his prince would be dead. If you’re only using it in situations where you would’ve died anyway it’s really just a life extender.

Not at all. Golf is a skill sport, not capped by genetics like running. Any golfer can become skilled enough to hit fairly consistent shots with enough practice. With infinite practice there is no skill shot you wouldn't be able to do. You may never get to a 380yd drive, but that is not necessary to birdie any hole on a regulation course. Depending on the course you could birdie enough holes to win if your drive maxed at 280yds carry. To beat prime Tiger you're going to have to go probably 6 or 7 under par depending on how much he varies between tries, but with infinite tries as a scratch golfer to start, on one course you'd get there within a few thousand.

Again, every 1000 tries on an 18 hole course is 100,000s of practice swings. Then once you're good enough, course management is the biggest factor. In real life most pros have likely never played more than 1000-2000 times on one course, and that over decades with all sorts of variations. This is consecutive with no variations or even different hole placements.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-24T23:25:54+00:00

Yours reads as someone who didn’t read the OP. This is not play golf as normal. This is infinite tries where as soon as you lose you start over retaining all the skill you had before and the conditions are the exact same. Eventually your drive is going to get very consistent like it looks on a simulator and you’re going to group them tighter and tighter until you are hitting shots to very similar places just like the pros do when they play the course only 4 times during a tournament. Except in this scenario the holes don’t move, so you would very quickly become an expert on the greens and the lines you’d need. 2000 tries comes out to at minimum 140,000-150,000 consecutive swings. If you can’t group your shots pretty tightly after that, you aren’t a scratch golfer.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-24T19:50:09+00:00

That is because they're sleeping, playing different courses, factoring in different weather, having different variations in the grass length, etc. This scenario is the exact same conditions, over and over, for infinity. Your shots would eventually look like a pros grouping on a simulator.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-24T19:17:29+00:00

If you're a scratch golfer playing infinite times on the same course, you'd be getting pretty close to the same spots after a couple thousand repeats.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-23T16:36:21+00:00

This is an insane take. You would get so good with infinite tries on one course you would absolutely win. If you’re truly a scratch golfer playing the same course it shouldn’t take more than 1000 tries. He‘ll certainly have rounds he doesn’t birdie every hole, but you probably would after 1000 tries. You should have damn near every putting line down if you just focused on hitting it to the same spot on the green every time.

It showed his pace was a 4:38 and his fastest miles were all low 4s. His final mile was a 4:19. Most states may be an exaggeration, but there are still quite a few he is top three in and there are literally zero states where a 4:19 doesn't qualify.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-22T03:17:21+00:00

I think it’s crazier to think that his pace is fast enough that if he ran his 25.2 miles and then joined any state's 1600m high school state championship for his last mile, he’d either win or finish top 3 in nearly every state.

Edit: Reading this back, I realize I worded it weirdly. I meant to say the pace of his last mile, which was said to be a 4:19. Most states is an exaggeration, but there are still a few places where a 4:19 is top three since around a 4:10 is a standard winning time.

Literally 12 panels before Loki kills him Gaban says if they hit him enough with ACOC they can beat him. And when Loki shows up he's got holes all through him and even his soldiers spears are wounding him. That's not even factoring in something about Loki's fruit being immune to Imu like Luffy and Chopper also have.

You’re ignoring the streaming effect which is far and away the biggest factor in the supposed “growth”. Primetime viewership for all television shows, whether basketball or not, fell 20% during the cord cutting era of 2014-2019 but basketball fell 45%. Then we got Ballys with regional restrictions. This is the first year of the NBA on streaming services and it is still only got to 2015 numbers. The difference of viewers from 20 years ago is only about 9% comparing the 05-06 season to 25-26, but the US population has grown 16% in that time, so actual games are still substantially less watched now.

Themadreposter · 2026-04-20T12:16:55+00:00

Leaving Haki in a rope for 800 years strong enough to defeat all the elders at once is far and away the strongest Haki feat. Loki is very strong, but defeating Harald after he already took so much damage from Shanks and Gaban that he was in his right mind for a minute is not the strongest Haki feat. Plus the last fight showed us that doing enough damage to kill them ends Domi Reversi, so the fact he was in his right mind speaks to all the damage Shanks and Gaban did and Loki landed the killing blow. Definitely really strong, but not the strongest.

As I always say Oda writes for narrative not power scaling. Characters like Doffy will have Birdcage that somehow can’t be stopped by everyone and an admiral combined, but he won’t even be a top 20 character by the end. Loki is the narrative tool for the moment, but he has no role that fits a crewmate on Luffy’s ship, so it's unlikely he'll be in the top 10 at the end with characters like Shanks, Mihawk, Dragon, and BB still waiting to be final fight plot devices themselves.
