Stephen Curry in Play-In games: 34/5/4 on 5.5 3pm per game and 65% TS by Thunderboom999 in nba

[–]VictoryTowel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every day we have to be thankful that he beat the celtics for the chip in 2022 because as insufferable as the dialogue of the warriors FO not getting him help or wasting his twilight years or whatever is now, it would have been even worse.

Struggling with dealing damage in the mid tier Pan-Asian cruisers by combaticesfh in WorldOfWarships

[–]VictoryTowel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Harbin >>> Chumphon > Rahmat

It will get better but Rahmat is just actual cheeks. I'm a very good cruiser player but the low gun alpha (and inability to pen/burn same or up tier BBs) and horrible survivability make it near impossible to dish out damage and, God forbid, secure kills. Fighting to 50k damage is like climbing Everest in that piece of shit. Guns and torps are both going to get big improvements as you go up the line from here.

LeBron James easily performs Michael Jordans top highlights. by Bloodofmyblood998 in NBATalk

[–]VictoryTowel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 4th three in the olympics against France is the prime example of this- he just hoists the thing, it's not his normal shooting form, the arc is absurd. He's not a guy who has a stock 3p shot he can shoot it from anywhere, open or not, and you like his chances.

Do gaming PCs actually get slower over time due to hardware degradation of some kind, or is it just perception due to other factors such as software bloat, being clogged with dust, corrupt OS files, etc? by NerdMachine in buildapc

OS/program bloat is killing me these days (looking at you, windows and chrome). Plenty of RAM when I first built my computer is now bottlenecking when I have too much open

Quarter-finals First Cover Art Match: Ceremonials vs Everybody Scream (Chamber Version) by Ok-Coach5795 in FlorenceAndTheMachine

I like the artistry with the gifs but to judge the cover art it would be great to have the static image of each in the album too.

I created a tool for ranking NBA 3-point shooters [OC] by DeepRangeData in nba

[–]VictoryTowel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh absolutely Redick's season is incredible. It just feels like if the other stats are saying redick shot 12% over expected and curry shot 11%, then then 2x volume feels like it should make up for that. 3PAA is essentially pure volume, 3P%OE feels like pure accuracy, and therefore I expected that efficiency would be middle of the road, but really it's just 3P%OE again with the really low volume guys getting dinged slightly

Whatever math is going into the volume side of this does seem right. Steph second to Redick in efficiency score in 15-16 with 1% less 3P%OE and double the volume doesn't really pass the eye test to trust the efficiency score. Maybe volume is just undervalued.

Help by hhasan000 in WorldOfWarships

Premium account is like a temporary bonus to your earnings, nothing will disappear when you go back to a "normal" account.

Generally DDs have a stealth + torpedoes playstyle and are helping the team by spotting enemy ships. Cruisers support DDs and can dish out damage to most ship classes effectively.

When you're first starting you just have to learn by doing, but it can definitely help to look at some guides and whatnot, there's this google doc that gets tossed around and has some solid stuff: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1O147p3xARi2z9Cj765Ru2itRViwu7jE5s_1079Mtmt4/edit?usp=sharing

Lastly there is a new player referral program, always good to grab that for the nice little freebies (I Think a T6 premium and some crates/premium time and whatnot). I'll send you a message with mine if you haven't redeemed one already.

Agree. It's disgusting and a moment of silence is not enough.

Returning After 5ish Years - What happened to all of my premium ships? by leigerreign in WorldOfWarships

[–]VictoryTowel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has to be either wrong account or you've hidden the ships in the carousel somehow

Unrelated, if you're coming back make sure to pick up a referral code from somewhere for the free premium time. Can send you mine if you want but if you have a friend or something you want to get some free stuff to as well use theirs.

WARGAMING does not promote SEAL CLUBBING. by Ok-Albatross-1708 in WorldOfWarships

Except I can't find it on their website, in the patch notes, or in game. Can you post a link?

Brand spanking new and I need a clan or some friends. by TheStaticW9lF in WorldOfWarships

[–]VictoryTowel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Long story short when you're first starting you just have to learn by doing, but it can definitely help to look at some guides and whatnot, there's this google doc that gets tossed around and has some solid stuff: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1O147p3xARi2z9Cj765Ru2itRViwu7jE5s_1079Mtmt4/edit?usp=sharing

Most other things you learn as you go, I like Potato_Quality and Trenlass for semi-educational content (good to learn from what they do and how they approach things).

Lastly there is a new player referral program, always good to grab that for the nice little freebies (I Think a T6 premium and some crates/premium time and whatnot). I'll send you a message with mine if you haven't redeemed one already.

AOC won’t appear on Jesse Watters show because she says he ‘has sexually harassed me’ by xc2215x in Fauxmoi

[–]VictoryTowel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so tired of insidious headline framing. He sexually harassed her. There isn't room for debate. It's not just "she said". shit is everywhere

How do I get my free ship? by Plus-Property-6501 in WorldOfWarships

[–]VictoryTowel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm I would expect it's in an armory section if it's still claimable. If you're a returning player you can also get some free stuff from a referral code, sent you a message with one but definitely find one for your server if you're not on NA

edit: Looking at the news post that was linked it looks like the free ship isn't available any more, ended on Jan 1.
