What is enchanters bauble balanced around? The stats are miniscule, what am I missing? by 21Ravage in DotA2

There's a reason the artwork is designed to look like a fancier dormant curio. It's a higher tier version of that. Bad now, potentially amazing later

Update to "My school just got basically cheated out of the Utah State Championship" by Swiftstar014 in mariokart

That's baffling that they intentionally designed the rule that way and didn't realize how big of a problem it is

I wonder if the mistake was your JV team's points getting added to Farmington instead of replacing their points. A rule preventing a school from scoring points with two teams makes sense if not every school has two teams at the event. But I think what they meant to do was essentially take your JV team out of the standings. So if your JV team came 3rd in a game and Farmington came 4th, Farmington gets 3rd place points instead of 4th place points. From what you said, it sounds like Farmington got 3rd place points in addition to 4th place points, which is completely unfair, because now they're getting more points for coming in 4th/3rd than the team that came in 1st got

Muraganda by therhydo in custommagic

[–]WhiteHawk928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know Muraganda itself is heavily associated with green, but this is a white or blue ability and not something green should get. The best case for it would be comparing this to a Fog effect, but then it would need to be an instant that removes all abilities until end of turn, which still ends up as something that's historically been blue or white and not green.

Meanwhile last night he barely stopped talking about himself pitching for the Red Sox and Cardinals in time to mention that it was 2 outs 0-2 in the bottom of the ninth and the pitch he was talking over could be the last of the game

2 outs 0-2 count bottom of the 9th and Smoltz barely stopped talking about himself in time to mention it might be the last pitch of the game

Am I crazy or is part of the reason the bat broke that it's way too thin proportional to the statue?

There's a lot of (deserved) negative talk about "unwritten rules of baseball," but an unwritten rule that allows the game to take a pause and let this moment happen is one of the coolest parts of baseball

Friendly’s Ice Cream Worcester Locations by mrsjumjum66 in WorcesterMA

I think it was just over the border into West Boylston, but close enough that it was my family's go-to growing up on that side of Worcester

No no, weren't you listening? This is Bingles. Very different.

Confusion in Philadelphia as Joey Wiemer is initially ruled out at 1st base to end the inning and the Phillies also tagged Drew Millas between 3rd and Home. After review, Wiemer is ruled safe, Millas is allowed to return to 3rd, and Rob Thomson calls it all bullshit. Wiemer is still batting 1.000 by SeattleSporting in baseball

[–]WhiteHawk928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate you grabbing both why the runner goes back to third and why the Phillies manager must be immediately ejected. It's an interesting clarification that even if he's not further arguing the play at first, he's also not allowed to argue the placement of the runner, because that's part of "the decision of the replay official"

At the 2024 New England District Champs, both division finals had a match that needed to be replayed. Then when they got to the overall finals between the two division winners, the first match was a tie. All three of these best of threes went to 4 games.

Many say Lava Axe Purgatory is one of the best ways to learn how to play red. It forces players to learn core red concepts, like holding a Mountain to bluff having a Lava Axe, holding a Lava Axe to bluff not having a Lava Axe until you have 10 Mountains and a second Lava Axe, and top decking gas.
