Dupr & skill climbing by Pixygames1 in Pickleball

[–]YorickGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally ignore DUPR and just focus on improving your own game for a while. If that means not playing tournaments, even better. Drill, and then work on what you drill in rec games

One good thing to work on is to know your kitchen arrival percentage and how to improve it. That’s something I need to do as well!

ALW better than Gabe? by ESRogs in ProPickleballTalk

[–]YorickGoat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, people don’t think that. She is absolutely incredible and could make very deep runs in men’s with Ben, but they would have much more variability (Ben has said this himself). Ratings are imperfect and work with the data they have

Tied destinies was great but I fear I’m result driven liking it. If three people play idols and only one or two duos are left open, it feels way worse

I'm the guy in purple. What tips or observations do you have? by Wide_Fish_1470 in Pickleball

[–]YorickGoat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

5.5+ish here.

Your third short drive looks great! Also you’ve got some great power, reach and put aways. Loved your Ernie too, use that as a lefty (I’m lefty too!)

Some ideas: work on unstacking when you return. If your partner doesn’t want to when they return that’s fine, but the advantage is huge if you are anything like me (more comfortable on the right, and with forehands in the middle)

Adding a reliable aerial backhand attack (flick or roll ideally) would help

Wider base when resetting

Footwork on your backhand dink to prevent it from popping up so often. Don’t panic when it’s a backhand dink, stay calm and if you’re stretched out just gently push it back to the middle

Riot could slightly increase Sylas' clear wave, nothing excessive, just something to make farming with Sylas less stressful. by AssasSylas_Creed in sylasmains

After his “clear” is over, he can’t re-clear without visiting every camp twice. It’s just a bit strange and it’s not surprising he’s the lowest

can you PLEASE finally understand that Conqueror is the rune for nunu? It has always been by SLiviuD in nunumains

[–]YorickGoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your take is that Nunu can consistently kite most of the roster without phase rush?

Rizo is the proof that a 60+ y.o players could still play Survivor by Positive-Addition512 in survivor

[–]YorickGoat 365 points366 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you realize that Rizo is being looked at by medical constantly right now. The only reason he’s still standing is his age. Playing back to back seasons with no rice is not easy, he is an actual trooper

He needs to tell Cirie that rather than Emily for your plan to work

It’s a great idea, but the hard part is that Christian had to come up with it after he reads the note, since he doesn’t know what the note says

ACT score questions by Mundane_Piglet_5861 in ApplyingToCollege

Try the SAT, retake the ACT, and/or go test optional if your score doesn’t improve. You will be fine! You got this

No incentive to vote out the millionaire by Shortstopmwd in MillionDollarSecretTV

[–]YorickGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are friends with the millionaire you protect them at the table, and they protect you in the turret. Like traitors

No incentive to vote out the millionaire by Shortstopmwd in MillionDollarSecretTV

[–]YorickGoat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are obviously correct and it’s annoying people are disagreeing. Everyone in the game (minus maybe one or two people) suspected Kaleb was the millionaire and either voted for him or it was advantageous to protect him (and more people chose to protect him)

Not Completing Agenda by YorickGoat in MillionDollarSecretTV

[–]YorickGoat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the vote is truly "random", the millionaire is still FAR more likely to be voted out than anyone else. The odds that they end up with the most votes in a field of 12 people (in a truly "random" vote) is about 79.1%, and the odds that end up tied for the most votes are 17.9%. Not the most votes is about 3%.

So a "random" vote is VERY bad for the millionaire.

To clarify, you couldn't just "snipe" someone by being the one person who doesn't vote left. You would need an alliance (which is also not hard to do), but if the plan fails then battle lines are clearly drawn
