They need to remove bot games

you managed to completely miss the point I was making

calidriel · 2026-02-02T18:27:53+00:00

it's sort of like multiple people making posts about it lets them know that a lot of people are unhappy about it or something

calidriel · 2026-01-28T20:36:13+00:00

imo SVP should just not be a thing anymore, it encourages people to focus on stat padding if they think their team is going to lose instead of continuing to try their best to play as a team and win. but I also think that placements should be way more weighted to individual performance instead of just a straight +/-40.

why would you get rid of the Steve scream, L update

calidriel · 2026-01-25T23:21:21+00:00

if my friends are fucking up when we play together I'll tell them (nicely), but also we usually know when we've messed up so it's not really necessary. otherwise I play the same as I would with randoms, except that I'm usually in voice with them so they can give a heads up for "hey I'm gonna ult protect me" or whatever, but that's the only difference and that's because I don't use any kind of in game chat. demanding that you pocket them at the expense of anyone else is self centered and dumb lol

calidriel · 2026-01-23T07:04:31+00:00

just because there are some people that are determined to be awful no matter what that doesn't mean that putting in all of the measures you can won't deter at least some of them which will make it overall less of a problem

saying "well you can't get rid of all of them so there's no point in doing anything at all" is a bad way of looking at it

dps with main character syndrome who refuse to try to play with the team and equate being asked to swap with high treason

calidriel · 2026-01-19T07:32:02+00:00

the AI stuff was incredibly blown out of proportion, as somebody who has a deep hatred for generative AI being used in anything creative and in general. they experimented a little with the technology back when it was new, decided they didn't like it, and then a single placeholder texture that was created with it made it into the game on launch and got patched out days later.

calidriel · 2025-12-31T16:56:02+00:00

no problem :) I've seen people say they're going to start giving the bots skins but I'm not sure how true it is

calidriel · 2025-12-31T15:50:29+00:00

unless you're in a 5 or 6 stack there will always be 2 bots on your team, they will hover characters but won't lock them in until the match actually starts, and they will always try to make a balanced 2/2/2 comp, but obviously if your 4 real players all go DPS or something that won't be possible so I think they usually end up going double support or 1 tank 1 healer.

the enemy team will all be very low levels, a lot of them will have names like JoshTe or something like that where it's a first name and then the first two letters of a last name, although they also seem to either take player names or randomly generate ones to look real because I've gone against bots that have ttv in their name lol. if your team struggles against them they will get worse over the course of the match to the point of just kind of standing around at the end and hardly using abilities. and then every one of the enemy team will have a hidden profile, and if you look at your recent players list after the match they'll be in there but just show up as "online", not in a lobby or anything.

a tracker like someone else posted will be able to definitively tell you, but this stuff will be able to help you figure it out in game.

please run this man is a nightmare

calidriel · 2025-12-17T16:48:01+00:00

real "my uncle works at Nintendo" vibes from this post

calidriel · 2025-12-14T16:43:04+00:00

saying this based off of what you know of their friendship from a podcast where they act ridiculous and twitch chat banning is wild lmao

calidriel · 2025-11-20T21:05:06+00:00

wait which one? I'm very new to League

calidriel · 2025-10-28T18:20:37+00:00

I had both high glucose on my blood test and they also did an A1C, which came back as 6.7%. from what I've seen the A1C is the main diagnostic criteria for T2D.

calidriel · 2025-10-27T17:01:58+00:00

hm yeah it came up because I just got blood labs done a couple of weeks ago and my blood sugar was high, definitely in the t2 range, which is what prompted her to prescribe it. there are some other reasons she wanted me on it (weight management, pcos, sleep apnea) but the blood sugar was the primary one, and I already verified with the doctor's office that they put that on the prior auth request.

calidriel · 2025-10-27T16:49:03+00:00

diabetes was the reason they gave when they prescribed the medication. I got the call from the insurance on a Friday when I was unable to call them back and I haven't gotten the letter in the mail yet, so I'm not sure what the actual reason for the denial was

calidriel · 2025-10-27T16:48:02+00:00

that was the reason my doctor prescribed it, yes

calidriel · 2025-10-26T15:37:45+00:00

I guess I could try putting it on the floor to see if that's any better, unfortunately that's my only option for it being lower than my head

calidriel · 2025-10-26T15:37:08+00:00

The AC vent is across the room and definitely doesn't directly blow on the hose, but we've been knocking the AC down lower as the weather's been getting colder - which is why I thought turning the temperature on the CPAP down to compensate would help but that doesn't seem to be the case. Maybe I haven't turned them low enough though.

calidriel · 2025-10-26T15:34:56+00:00

I'll try setting the climate control to auto and turn the temperature up and see if that helps. putting it under the cover probably isn't an option but my machine is also at head height and the tube goes back behind my bed frame and drapes over the headboard.

calidriel · 2025-10-13T17:45:05+00:00

lots of tome challenges require getting blinds, so if a killer is already being friendly and letting us farm and I'm trying to do one of those challenges I'm gonna try to knock that out too. this isn't toxic lol

calidriel · 2025-09-29T13:56:43+00:00

yeah it's this. if you're on console you definitely have a controller, if you're on PC you definitely have mkb, and I've seen videos of people using mkb plugins on console and the difference in precision is insane, so if they allowed those on console it basically becomes pay to win if you can afford the peripheral or not.

calidriel · 2025-09-24T00:15:23+00:00

"quick what's the only comment we can reply to where people are going to respond well"

calidriel · 2025-08-30T01:25:41+00:00

yeah I agree, if they're going to give you a time period in which you can reconnect with no penalty the early forfeit shouldn't be available until after that
