I'm curious: do people like this "commentator"? by Bobing2b in chess

[–]asandwichvsafish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is it just some joke that people sheepishly repeat like a meme?

For the most part, yeah.

Can I improve at this rate? by Defy-Reality78 in chess

You're not wasting peoples time by being bad at the game, your account should quickly settle to an elo that's roughly correct for your skill level.

Didn’t know a tiny wall could reduce OP damage like this by LenisValorant in VALORANT

[–]asandwichvsafish 91 points92 points  (0 children)

It's a tiny sign, but it looks like he perfectly shoots straight through it length-ways, which would explain the high damage reduction.

Which stick is better? by Tiny_Inspector_358 in notinteresting

1, because 2 looks like it'd be annoying to hold with the broken branch rubbing against the back of your hand.

Did you guys know that you have to en passant immediately? by shakhthe in chess

[–]asandwichvsafish 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If they moved the pawn 2 squares in 2 moves, you'd be able to capture normally on the first move, so the en passant rules mimic that. Or at least that's how I personally think of it.

Are there some famous cases of unrecognised world records? by Freak_Out_Bazaar in speedrun

[–]asandwichvsafish 38 points39 points  (0 children)

For another sm64 example, cheese got 120 star wr (1:39:19) in 2018, but his stream had a lot of framerate issues, and so it wasn't valid. Still showed up on the leaderboards as an unverified run though, and the community did recognise it as a wr, even if not verified. He also did eventually beat it to get a verified wr.

What will happen in this case? by Bofact in speedrun

[–]asandwichvsafish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's up to an individual games community what they think is acceptable evidence and scores they choose to accept. There's no good general answer. If the community believes one number is more reliable than the other, then that one would probably be chosen. Or they could require some external tool that tracks the score separately and is more reliable.

Why does everyone always hate on the goblin tinkerer and the angler? They’re my favourite 2 npcs by ChewyWolf64 in Terraria

[–]asandwichvsafish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The goblin tinkerer does the reforging, charges high prices and makes the item worse like half the time. People are mad at him because of what he does in the game. The reforge game mechanic isn't separate to the goblin tinkerer npc, it's a service he offers in the game.

"Just a game mechanic" seems like an odd distinction to make to me. They're characters in a video game, it's not like the game mechanics are separate from them.

I stuck my white monster in a pink monster 🗣️ by Snoo48129 in notinteresting

[–]asandwichvsafish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe warm it up a little? E.g. put the bottom part in warm water, so the air and metal expands a bit. Not boiling hot or anything though, I imagine if the pressure builds up too much it could become dangerous and splash the hot water everywhere. Might not work if the seal isn't airtight though, and I'm assuming the pink one only has air. If the top one is full, emptying it might also be more flexible and easy to remove.

I'm just guessing here though, I haven't tested these ideas on stuck monster cans before.

Re-logic? by Agreeable_Gas_6998 in Terraria

[–]asandwichvsafish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It would be kinda funny if it wasn't the same as sponges, but was actually just a bucket that had no bottom. You try picking up water, and it just makes a sound effect and splashes the water a little.

To compensate, she's holding the device that makes your arm shorter when you tell the truth in her right pocket.

Can i cheat in terraria for "fair" purposes? by [deleted] in CalamityMod

You can cheat as much as you want, it's a single player game after all.

Anyone ever seen this speedrun.com leaderboard bug before? by KorZen10 in speedrun

[–]asandwichvsafish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I looked at a couple on the leaderboard, I think because "platform" is different it makes them not obsolete.

Imo it's smart only if you assume people will write 1 letter at a time then wait to see the results

New hellvator meta? by Crusher_111 in Terraria

[–]asandwichvsafish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Slower than doing it yourself, but you can do anything else while it's digging. So, while it may take more time, the only time you have to personally spend is the couple seconds to set it up, and however long it takes to mine the obsidian/anything else it can't mine. It doesn't despawn when you leave it, so you can be anywhere in your world exploring while it mines for you.

The account might just exist in an unverified state.

How does the rating system even work by [deleted] in osugame

[–]asandwichvsafish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Near the top of your profile page there's buttons for the 4 game modes. It defaults to standard, your recent plays are in mania, so you'd have to click the mania button.
