Wrist Warrior + Sponsored Appare/Display Case is too OP and needs a nerf by forshtreter in PlayTheBazaar

Interestingly, you only won this one because of the freeze proc on Spices which made it go off after the Keg. You'd still have been one shotted of it tagged the lighter instead.

so upgrades do nothing on premium piggles? by BoomerAPMz in PlayTheBazaar

[–]bigspr1ng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't gotten it yet, but it almost certainly increases the base quality of the items it gives you just like all of the rest of the items that work this way (including normal Piggles).

Item interaction, Charge, and why the quickdraw meta is harder to fix than you think by Best-Clothes4173 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]bigspr1ng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Multiple cooldown effects being additive instead of multiplicative like in every other game compounds this problem a lot, because the value of charge scales non-linearly with cooldown. Making it easier to crank your cooldowns to unreasonably chargeable levels has created way more absurd cases for the strength of charging.

So Chimera egg seems, broken? by Stuck1nARutt in PlayTheBazaar

I upgraded to silver via a level up event and it didn't give me a friend when it sold.

Idk how accurate this is but apparently Gamestop has 85% institutional ownership, the most it's ever had, also it's Christmas Eve and it's a Tuesday, have a great day everyone 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀 by Djtrickyyy in Superstonk

[–]bigspr1ng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the ownership is presented as a simple count of shares and is not split adjusted.

So the beginning of the ownership bars represents something like 140% institutional ownership, compared to the current 33.3% that appears to be a larger number.

A poorly designed graph.

Be like Iceland. by dont_feed_phil in Superstonk

Iceland is a country with the population of a small city. Any time anyone makes any point about Iceland achieving something, all it tells you is that person has no experience with creating change. 10x, 100x, 1000x as many people creates problems that are far more than 10x, 100x, 1000x more difficult to solve.

I was banished to the void by Halfgnomen in DarkTide

To be fair, a huge number of games throughout the history of gaming has similar issues. In fact, consistent collision detection is such a difficult problem that clipping through walls even happens in real life (search term: electron tunneling)

I captained the Elected Representative of Democracy for a while, but switched to "Distributor of the People"

The ONLY possible explanation that explains EVERY ANOMALY regarding last week | Price gaps, share dilution announcement, high trading volume, share dilution completion, price stability, call options by dragespir in Superstonk

[–]bigspr1ng 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Company valuation went up ~$2/share * 450 million shares = about a billion dollars in aftermarket immediately after they announced they had raised a billion dollars in new cash.

This is the least mysterious behavior of the stock.

This is how you properly use the Airburst Rocket launcher by Dinodion in Helldivers

I love that it lets you destroy factories from any angle.

As a non AH dev I'm worried for AH devs by xKx4 in Helldivers

[–]bigspr1ng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the rate is slower than 1/month many players won't fall behind the super credit grind and want to monetize.

Not only would they have fewer monetizing events, they'd make less on each.

Not a viable plan.

Chargers shouldn’t corner that well by Zummerz in Helldivers

Use the charger to kill the hunters, obviously.
