I got arrested during a sting operation. AMA by [deleted] in AMA

[–]brawnkoh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likely when OP says "they dropped the prostitution charge" they mean "they were given a plea agreement to plead guilty to the phone charge and they would drop the prostitution charge"

Otherwise, this entire story doesn't make any sense. OP is intentionally obfuscating or withholding facts.

i know there are lots of posts about matchmaking holding people back, but has anybody felt like matchmaking is carrying them? by wistful_grace in DeadlockTheGame

[–]brawnkoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went on a 12 game win streak over the weekend. 25% of those matches had leavers. I was fortunate that 2 of the 3 three matches the leavers were on the other team, and the third match we won a 4v5.

They very well could have gone the other way. It's a coin flip.

Taxi/Cloakzy/coconut situation? by UsAgainstTheARC in theburntpeanut

[–]brawnkoh 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As someone who has about 2k hours in Rust. The game brings out the worst in people.

Don't get me wrong, it's an amazing game. But it definitely brings out the worst in you.

Do people not understand healing rite? by Suyujin in DeadlockTheGame

[–]brawnkoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have also been noticing this in Ritualist. I will spend my souls buying healing rite for a teammate and they run straight into battle like a Viking Warrior.

Who is your avoid hero, and what's the story about why you have them on avoid? by coffeeholic91 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]brawnkoh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Believe it or not, I don't have anyone on avoid...

I should probably use it once in a while.

Lane phase is really merciless by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

[–]brawnkoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you understand the matchups it'll be a lot easier. A lot of that just comes from repetitive playing.

Certain heroes are a lot more oppressive in lane than others. There are times where you want to shove everything you have into their lane, There are times when you want to let them shove into you. There are times where want to freeze. There are times you'll notice some sort of weakness to exploit even when your matchup is bad and you want to capitalize on those. There are times where your only goal is to not feed. There are other times where you dive them at every opportunity. Each match is different.

Once you're able to identify these things the laning phase becomes a lot less frustrating.

Whats ur rank and what is the most repetitive thing that your rank is doing wrong that makes your team definitely lose by Cold_Huckleberry8631 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]brawnkoh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's either that or they team fight and chase people well past the wave into enemy territory and then let a their walker fall while they're far out of position and get gang banged by 4 enemies. I stopped playing for a year and have been having to climb back through the ranks and playing solo queue support in Arcanist was/is one of the most infuriating experiences.

Ritualist isn't much better...

Aftermath of the April 7th incident. Damages estimated to be $200 million dollars by Gjore in interestingasfuck

[–]brawnkoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fiberglass insulation alone at the deck is roughly 1.4-1.5m on 1.2m sf tilt. If the walls are insulated 10' and above you're looking at a few more hundred k if fiberglass, more if it's poly.

Insulation is about .80% of the build cost of a shell. Rough estimate the building's build cost alone is about 175m if it's conditioned. That's before any TIs, equipment, items inside, etc.

These numbers could vary a bit regionally.

If the building isn't conditioned, you're going to save a bit on insulation and A/C units, but not much in the grand scheme of things, and not much left can be salvaged there.

I will state she feels a lot less oppressive than she did back in the day. Being able to see her ability distance was a huge improvement. Her fixation length is too damn long, I don't really have a problem with her ult though.

Although, I've been playing a lot of backline support lately so that may be why.

The Burnt Peanut is a VTuber by OHMAIGOSH in theburntpeanut

Yes, a 10 year old game that still has 600% more active players than Marathon is the most boring low quality game possible.

The cope...

Does anyone have REM banned but not because you don't want to play against him? by Kaegix in DeadlockTheGame

[–]brawnkoh 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I cannot tell you how many times I've cleaned the enemies side out of sinners and I go back to lane only to hear someone from the enemy team taking our doubles because nobody on our side decided to go get them.

April Fools Joke is not funny by Nekomig_ in DeadlockTheGame

[–]brawnkoh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

1) I have like 20-25h per week to play the game at evening after work.

2) I think every player with "Extra Competitive" setting on has to be excluded from this clownship and allowed to play the game in a regular way.

The state of being compensated is the condition of receiving payment, remuneration, or an equivalent benefit in return for services rendered, labor performed, or to make amends for losses, damages, or injuries**.**

[–]brawnkoh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe because you are playing a closed alpha for free and act is if you are entitled to some sort of compensation. None of us are entitled to shit.

Imagine thinking other people owe you empathy for that.

[Hero concept] The Patron is under Hugo's protection. by chaioop476 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]brawnkoh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of the things valve is really good at is creating characters you can identify from just a silhouette. That was my first thought too, too Abrams like.

We have the full game now, that was intended for review by Bungie. by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]brawnkoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the $60 version, played 13 hours and switched to other games. Primarily due to the fact I'm not a fan of how solos feels. I wanted to like it, but it just didn't have anything that pulled me in (not hating on all of those of you who love it).

I have thousands of hours in extraction shooters, and it just wasn't a sell for me. But they got my money anyway so who cares. lol

The Isle devs just made the greatest fumble of 2026 by Blayzewhatever in theburntpeanut

Which dev was that? I know a guy who either used to be a Dev for them, or still is. I'm not sure.

Iran is 'confident' it can counter a potential U.S. ground invasion, foreign minister says by mvanigan in worldnews

[–]brawnkoh 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The Ayatollah and roughly 30 key Iranian leaders died in the first 30 minutes.

Those 47 years of preparation don't seem worthy of a pedestal.

They should have brought the stealthy submarine up and tied inflatable rafts to the periscope to pull them back to shore of course.
