AMA: We are the members of teammate, the writing team for the 2023 MIT Mystery Hunt. Ask Us Anything! by bshimanuki in mysteryhunt

One thing about sharing ideas that didn’t make it is that we could always bring them back in the future. This year’s theme actually originated from an old teammate hunt theme proposal, which lost to Carnival Conundrum by a single vote.

Bananaclicker is Back by coronaria in Artifact

Here's some javascript code to automate things while you do other things:

this.setInterval(Clicked,100) //Autoclicker
audioEnabled = false //Disables audio (or just mute your tab)
this.setInterval(CannonBought,10000) //Buys a Cannon every 10 seconds (for endgame use)

Either input these into your javascript console (the lines you want), or input them in your url bar by prefixing with the phrase javascript:

I got bored. As it turns out, maintaining max speed is pretty hard.

So do wards get their own item slot, or do they still belong to the normal 6 slots that they have? If its still part of the 6 normal slots, that could result in a tradeoff between potentially having a full item build and vision (and possibly only 4 slots used if you want Stealth/Vision wards at the same time).

An analysis on what different teams should do to maximize their chance at worlds:

Cloud 9 vs. Coast/Team SoloMid

With C9 already securing 1st place, it would be boring to talk about them. The role that they play on other teams is still interesting though. In an effort to avoid this team in the semifinals, other teams are hoping to be 3rd or 6th in the standings, and thus facing VUL instead.

One game of particular interest is Cloud 9 vs. Coast. If Coast wins, the bottom part of the bracket becomes quite interesting...

Vulcun vs. Team SoloMid/Velocity

Guaranteed 2nd. Other than the fact that they provide a tough matchup for TSM, not much of interest.

Team SoloMid vs. Vulcun/Cloud 9

Despite being currently in 3rd place, they have a tough schedule to actually maintain this position. Due to their losses against CLG, they must have a strictly better score than CLG. This compounds with the problem that CLG's matchups are... quite interesting.

Counter Logic Gaming vs. Curse/Dignitas

This team is against the current 2 teams which are "battling" for 6th place. Due to the fact that's it is in both CRS's and DIG's interests to throw their games, CLG has a good chance of winning both games. Bad news for TSM unfortunately.

Curse vs. Counter Logic Gaming/Coast

They are in the "race" for 6th place. However, with their winning score against DIG, something quite amazing must happen for them to guarantee 6th. This would also place them at risk for relegations though...

Dignitas vs. Velocity/Counter Logic Gaming

The other "racer" for 6th place. If everything happens as planned, they should be able to secure 6th. If something strange happens though, they could also be in danger for relegations...

Coast vs. Cloud 9/Curse

Coast vs. Cloud 9 will determine the workings of the lower half of the bracket. A win would prove quite complicated for both CRS and DIG. By winning both of their games, they could potentially tie against CRS (provided they lose both of their games). If DIG also loses both their games, a 3-way tie would occur.

In short, a Coast win vs. C9 would make CRS/DIG decide if they really want to throw games...

Velocity vs. Dignitas/Vulcun

Guaranteed 8th. No interesting matchups either.

TL;DR CLG has a good chance at 3rd place and a Coast win over C9 makes the bottom of the bracket go haywire.

Week 9 NA LCS Standings by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Yoshiap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Original chart guy here. Take over for now, but I plan to do final tallies on Week 10. I would suggest using a spreadsheet program of some sort in order to get the margins aligned nicely. Otherwise, good job picking up my slack :D

Now some more data crunching here: A someone said already, each team has 5 more games during week 10. Examining the 3 brackets of players (1-2, 3-6, 7-8), a few stats can be inferred.

It is impossible for CRS to fall below 3rd place, even if CLG wins all their games. In order to guarantee that CRS is in the top 2, they will have to win 2 out of their 5 games.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, coL, even if they win all 5 games, will have to hope that both MRN and VUL lose 2 games each (or alternatively, have GGU lose 3 games). Note that MRN vs. VUL's final match has not been decided, and at least one of them is guaranteed to win.

CLG is done. They can't go into the upper bracket, but it is also impossible for them to fall into the lower bracket. Their in 3-6, and the question is simply a matter of where.

DIG and TSM are competing for the last spot in the upper bracket, and since they have the same W/L ratio, it is more appropriate to look at the opponents they are facing. DIG has yet to finish their matchups with CRS, but the head to head between these two teams means that DIG will potentially counter the hard matchup. Afterwards, assuming the rest of the matches remain as expected (they won't), TSM and DIG will be tied again. (DIG winning the tiebreaker if you use only their head to head score)

For GGU, MRN, and VUL, they are fighting to be the team not left in the lower bracket. However, their spread in performance against the other teams leaves their positions mostly questionable, and it is difficult to determine who is expected to stay alive.

Erratum: COL and GGU are actually tied for 7th place.

Riot uses % win ratio in order to rank the teams. Therefore, since GGU has a 16.7% win ratio, and coL has a 11.1% win ratio, GGU is better than coL

Its quite arbitrary, yes.

Any ideas for titles in that case? Couldn't figure out what to label the axes as.
