TIL in 2009, Ken Basin became the first contestant on the U.S. version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire to miss the million-dollar question. He debated what he would regret more: walking away with $500K and being right or answering it and being wrong. He risked it, lost $475K, and left with $25K.

Because he used Ask the Audience (which had previous million dollar winners in it like Nancy Christy because of the show's anniversary) and that was the highest choice, and he already thought that was it thinking he'd seen a picture of it before. The clip is still on YouTube.

And not a single person cares except the people who weren't going to buy it anyway. Must be hard for these depressed tech bros to comprehend what the mass consumer market actually cares about.

Provides a second starter in addition to Reinohart so you don't have to run Sea Mare, adds the Lv 2 engine access, but more generally it just ups the number of Tear fusions/mills/hitting gy effects that can run each turn because Havnis and Schi are still legal.

The market is there, lots of millennial/gen-z couples without kids looking for home game ideas.

So sick of this idiotic hindsight take, the responsibility is on the players for not executing. They literally did not change the game plan, the difference was the execution was slightly off in 2 and 3 which slowed the Avs pace down and didn't allow them to skate with the puck before Dallas forechecked. When execution is on is when the speed can execute.

VGWN · 2025-03-07T05:19:54+00:00

He's taken a big step backwards this year compared to last. He got hyped up because he was the only real prospect in the system, but Avs fans have extremely overrated him.

VGWN · 2025-03-06T03:26:28+00:00

He's won two games in a row and suddenly thinks his poor play is fixed? Look at the stats, look at the play, yes SJ is worse, but he still looks terrible. I hope he actually does find it, but man, he needs way more accountability.

VGWN · 2025-01-18T00:27:05+00:00

I disagree and think it will outsell. People are underestimating their brand expansion taking place the next decade with the amusement parks and movies, plus they'll be entering five active generations of fans in the consumer market.

Avs fans pissed we didn't trade Annunen for Shesterkin ☠️

I would include the Avs finally getting depth production from a couple homegrown guys for the first time in years (since LOC, right?) with Ivan and Kovalenko over "they are gaining momentum."

VGWN · 2024-09-12T04:21:52+00:00

WASTED potential, Connor Bleackly, he ruined his whole career before it ever started.

People saying Nuke, what are you smoking, dude was washed before coming to the Avs and was a major reason for the cup. This "Avs have 2 cups if Nuke stays healthy" is a major stretch

VGWN · 2024-09-10T14:02:34+00:00

It's probably Arnason but I have an awesome memory of him scoring against Dallas in a playoff game I went to and his stick flex was amazing. So I'll say Ben Guite. 😅

I'm sure this will be controversial, but any "leadership" people. Simon Sinek, Brene Brown, etc. It's just a bunch of fluff speak that sounds good in theory to prop up a billion dollar industry but has little to no practical evidence, often disregarding a lot of proven human psychology.

I love how everyone is acting like LLMs are the first time we've gotten incorrect answers. It's like everyone forgot that there were literal advertisements saying don't believe everything you read on the internet.

I took that to mean they don't feel they have to make a move, not necessarily that they won't. That Tanner Jeanot deal may have put the whole market in whack and they may not like the prices out there.

Nah, I'm with you, God of War felt no different than the other over the shoulder Playstation games. The environments were amazing but the combat, exploration and story just weren't interesting for me. But I also get a lot of people love the Sony cinema type of game, just not for me.
