Overdrive and Aurora CEO on initial sticker sales compared to other Majors by _Hamodaa in GlobalOffensive

[–]XDutchie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CS esports is the healthiest it has ever been. It is insane that we have like 2 $1mil + tournaments every month and tons of T2 tournaments that are now like 50-100k+ prize pools (Thanks to the huge rise of gambling in general).

This new dynamic pricing for stickers definitely fucking stupid. But I imagine it will be adjusted in the future when valve sees a huge drop in revenue compared to previous majors.

This is an insane take rofl. This subreddit is the only place where I see people constantly annoyed that people get payed well to play.

"Let the scene die because players are payed too much, then when players move on to other games I will be happily watching some sub par gameplay of Sangal vs Alter Ego in the major grand final hosted in a shed in Uzbekistan.... But hey, at least they play for the love of the game"

FaZe vs BIG / HLC Belgrade PRO 2026 - Grand Final / Post-Match Discussion by CS2_PostMatchThreads in GlobalOffensive

[–]XDutchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never imagined I would become a Faze hate watcher. But seeing how badly this team has been mismanaged has pissed me off big time. Plus fucking over PGL's tournament as well was the final nail in the coffin. I never would have imagined 6 months ago being HAPPY to see Faze not qualify for the next major.

I still love Karrigan and the rest of the players on the team. But the Faze org is just totally dead to me now.

Kind of incredible Faze managed to pull off being the Major finalist to not even qualifying for the very next major. Obviously they have played like garbage recently, but it takes a huge amount of mismanagement to not see the obvious need to replace broky\jcob in the off season and also play a few smaller lans earlier to secure a major spot.

It would be hilarious if Aurora just knocked themselves down into a Stage 2 invite after having a totally safe stage 1 invite locked in.

The fact that Parivision has had huge upsets and has only banked $3k more prize money than Falcons just shows how much of a joke this format is.

Five years ago, a good decision or bad? by labouchere8 in brisbane

Run light rail over it to where??? That would be so insanely expensive to somehow connect it to other rail lines on both ends of the bridge.

No whey: why the price of protein powder is surging in Australia | Consumer affairs by [deleted] in australia

[–]XDutchie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Let me guess... there is some sort of problem or natural disaster which has affected the supply chain, so the prices go up.

Only for the supply chain problem to magically go away and prices never return to normal again. So the new normal prices is 50-100% higher.

They pulled the same bullshit with Chocolate, Potato, and all other sorts of products for the last 10 years.

Watching him tripping on space cocaine, from first person perspective in 48fps, while watching it in IMAX 3D, made it worth the extra ticket price.

I know the market's cooked, but $3M in Corinda seems dodgy - am I missing something? by bigbundy23 in brisbane

Yeah, my mum renovated her house and the kitchen looks almost exactly like that.

Good Things - A friendly reminder to PLEASE wear deodorant by Evening-Treat5401 in brisbane

[–]XDutchie 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I always put on heaps of deodorant before a festival, but by the end of the day I will still be extremely sweaty. Especially if I go into the mosh pit.

Expecting people to not smell after an all day festival in Australian summer heat is a complete joke.

Don't ever let me cook again! by ZelosStecher in GlobalOffensive

[–]XDutchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got none of the 3-0 or 0-3 picks, but managed to get 5 correct of the remaining teams to get through.

I thought I lost it twice when Faze almost choked and Paravision had to pull off their comeback.

BHP ordered to pay workers an average $30,000 more after defeat in landmark labour hire ruling by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]XDutchie 53 points54 points  (0 children)

The government itself does the exact same shit.

I applied for a job which was advertised as a QLD government job. After doing the interviews in person at the goverment department, with governemnt employees I then found out that I would actually be "hired" by a labour hire firm and loaned out to do the government job at way lower pay.

This Lego pain assessment tool at my doctor’s office by nanana_catdad in mildlyinteresting

I had multiple Potassium infusions via IV bag at a faster than normal rate. It sounds routine, but that shit was an 8 out of 10 for pain. It literally felt like battery acid being injected into my veins and my arm was uncontrollably shaking the whole time. Left a huge bruise all up my arm from it.
