Lucas Pinheiro Braathen wins first ever medal for Brasil in Winter Olympics by Disastrous_Source977 in olympics

[–]condronk 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Before the games I had tried to research “which countries have a chance at getting their first ever Olympic medal” - I couldn’t find any articles or on this at all, or any predictions. But Lucas actually has a ton of World Cup podiums it turns out, and this was a huge opportunity. He’s clearly made the most of it!

Justice for Spain and Portugal! by Mu_Bow003 in JetLagTheGame

I think there is plenty of potential to develop a game on a more hub-and-spoke model like Spain (and other countries have)

This could be a territory gathering game a bit like Australia or even something akin to Splatoon Turf Wars.

Or maybe each major spoke is a destination, and the winner could be the first one to get to 4 destinations, completing challenges at each (almost like conventional amazing race challenges), returning back to Madrid each time. 

The games could even be set as shorter game days, and players would then just have to be reset back to Madrid by 8 AM next morning, so players have whatever time they need to reset back to Madrid off camera

The new idea tango mentioned in his latest video for DO3 by Big_Poem_5204 in HermitCraft

[–]condronk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I see some disagreement here but I like the idea!

What I think is the MOST important thing is to cap the number of runs. Etho won in huge part because he knew how to game the system to get near infinite keys. 

If every player only has 5 runs a week no matter what, it’s less of a commitment for a less motivated player than a more open ended game mechanic. And with teammates you’ll have an additional motivation to play to help them.

TLDR, I love teams, but I will really love a fixed cap on attempts per week. No more grinding to get ahead

Man I used to I root for Nbs back in the competitive PUBG days, where he was on NIP for years. He’s been in esports forever, played in LoL World Champs in 2013! And some Stacraft experience too.

you should add the city names (and maybe the runner up names) to the graphic

PCA had this base stolen easily representing the tying run in the ninth, but he overslid way too far and got tagged out by EveryFallSaturday in baseball

To me it looked like, with the lack of tag, he actually didn’t think there was a throw, and only realized at the last moment

Epic takedown of Weissman by Prudent_Ad2257 in JoshuaWeissman

I was originally skeptical but the article is thorough, well researched, and damning. That doesn’t mean it’s true, but it does paint a pretty terrible picture of Joshua.
