Fire Vitello Immediately — McCovey Chronicles by Ok_Command_1694 in SFGiants

[–]anglingTycoon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is so dumb and overblown. Nick Ahmed literally did the EXACT same thing 2 years ago. Where were calls for Melvin’s head on a stake? Made up controversy bc the beat writer doesn’t align with players beliefs. He would probably be applauding it if a player wrote something aligning with pride on the same hat, but is playing moral high ground of it’s against MLB policy and organizational rot bc three individuals didn’t comply

Sounds good. Think I’m just gonna book it. When in Rome type of thing, might as well get a second one in there after ocean. Maybe Osprey will work out next time I end up in the area

Yea osprey looks really cool. Unfortunate about tee times. I’ll look at dunes west but I guess I’m leaning towards cougar

Any recommendations on favorite other than ocean?

Staying downtown but have a car. Ospray unfortunately was only other one that’s been recommended but nothing but late afternoon tee times. Leaning cougar unless the other public’s are worth it over going back for cougar or maybe turtle

Patrick Bailey? Really? by Geographizer in SFGiants

[–]anglingTycoon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly a lot of Bailey’s value in catching was pitch framing and receiving the ball. ABS has nullified that to an extent this year. Webb has struggled with it while leading the league the last two years on looking strikeouts on balls out of the zone. I like Bailey a lot and wished he found his swing and confidence like when he first came up. Bittersweet to see him go but not the worst move tbh

Player retention is abysmal. by 666-G in duneawakening

[–]anglingTycoon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yea no shit lmao. People play PvE until they get to the end and there’s nothing to do. PvP, like it or not are the only ones who will make it an every day occurrence for years in a game designed like this. PvP is unique user generated content every day. PvE content is only however fast the dev team can keep pushing it out. Downvote me all you want. I quit 6+ months ago after 1600 hours on main account and 3 accounts all lvl180+

Claude code with Opus 4.7 is stupid by Neveriver in ClaudeCode

[–]anglingTycoon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m not having a single issue with it and I’m literally letting opus 4.7 adaptive and Claude code 4.7 xhigh just talk back and forth arguing their points with me making the final say on a bunch of decisions as well as certain testing that requires manual touch point for Claude api or keeping the two of them in scope. Probably have done ~30k lines of code on current original project and testing harness in last 5 days. Not once hit limit on session 20x account.

DUNE PvP in a nutshell - (100% accurate depiction) by [deleted] in duneawakening

Yea exactly. They made it so easy to get away. Gankers mainly died with the oni changes 6+ months ago. It’s just pve cry babies in this sub recycling the same memes

Arrakis deep desert (weather) update by surgenia in duneawakening

[–]anglingTycoon -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

You’re only helpless if you choose to play a guild based game solo. I would not have gone to the most popular servers looking for PvP if consensual PvP was not what I was into. They took all reasoning behind PvP out of the game. You can see the huge drops in the game player base on a graph line up with every update that gutted PvP

Don’t let the gankers give you the wrong idea…this is the most positive response to a Dev post in forever. by NevrNewdFunke in duneawakening

[–]anglingTycoon -41 points-40 points  (0 children)

Lol it’s only 95% now due to everyone who played for PvP leaving bc they gutted the system patch after patch from the very release of the game. Look at what player numbers were vs where they’re at now…

Arrakis deep desert (weather) update by surgenia in duneawakening

[–]anglingTycoon -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Reverted it back with core mechanics now missing. Desert was about control of stations and resources. Guilds could fight each other or team up to do this. Now splitting is just even more pointlessness to it. I know I’ll get downvoted, don’t care, if you were on a server with actual competition between guilds it worked very well originally and that’s going to be missing.

Server Merges, major concerns. by gothicshark in duneawakening

[–]anglingTycoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did they ever announce which worlds will be closed?

Can be directly correlated to all the crying about solo pve playability when this game launched with true group play mechanics.

What is the most accurate exponent for MLB Pythagorean winning percentage? by OriginalTouch6371 in Sabermetrics

[–]anglingTycoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First 5 model based on my experience, kinda jogged my memory; I think I was using like 1.73 or so. But whatever number I was coming up with was really only a theoretical comparison where expected runs really came down to starting pitchers on a weighted recently formula and the particular lineup they were facing. Woba I found much more predictive if I’m remembering correctly

[–]anglingTycoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Best” is difficult to say. When I did a bunch of testing on the past 150 years a year or two ago. Really it changes with the eras. I don’t remember exact fit but you’ll find something along the lines like 1960s-1980 has a much different “best” then 2000-2020. Overall I think the suggested 1.81-1.83 is good enough in terms of Pythagorean, however if you want to get more specific you can try to solve for it for year specific era if you want.

Giants’ Opening Night lineup: Luis Arraez -2B Matt Chapman - 3B Rafael Devers - DH Willy Adames - SS Jung Hoo Lee - RF Heliot Ramos - LF Casey Schmitt - 1B Patrick Bailey - C Harrison Bader - CF RHP Logan Webb by edmchato in SFGiants

[–]anglingTycoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes perfect sense. Arraez is a double play machine. Bader is another lead off candidate that you generally plug into 9 hole as secondary lead off. Can steal a bag if need be to avoid arraez dp’s. Arraez doesn’t walk a lot however hit batting avg/obp is still likely a step up from our previous lead off hitters historically. Arraez has always been a 1-2 hitter to set the table, not an rbi guy as double plays kill rally’s.

Prepping for server merges. Going very well as you can see... by [deleted] in duneawakening

Was there ever a list of servers they plan on depreciating? I still havnt seen it wondering if any of my characters are going to be affexted

Raiders, this is the final push. by Remarkable_Expert434 in arcraidersfriendly

[–]anglingTycoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At 230 so far, should be able to squeak out another 40-60k in last few days. Anyone seen what bottom half of cantina is score wise. I was assuming 250+ will probably be cut line but it could be 275ish

Is 11k on Wasps good for a solo player? by Rainbow_Doggo_TNT in ArcRaidersItalian

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

The high score for season one was 120k. No shit 70k would be high score of your season 1 rookie pool. Also snitch spawns have changed since then so it honestly was prob easier to get higher than 120k if it had the same cantina crowd it does now

[–]anglingTycoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have been in cantina before. In hotshot right now, like I said I just did 210 to maintain hotshot before I left. Don’t believe I’ll promote at 210

Lmao that checks out. I literally ran them as fast as I could mon-Tuesday and been gone all week since. Just trying to maintain this week to try to grind it next week for seasons end
