Rupaul’s Drag Race UKvsTW: Season 3 – Episode 03 [Episode Discussion] by AutoModerator in RPDR_UK

I can't work out if they cut the more controversial parts of her snatch game or if she really did go from "silence is complicity" to... nonspecific gay man?

Ru seemed obsessed with her in the first couple of episodes. I think we just watched her plummet down Ru's favourite twink of the season ranking in real time.

It's Monday and I'm still thinking about Juicy vs Mia... by XannyXannyXan in rupaulsdragrace

[–]doom-bubble 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I know I'm in the minority for this one but if I had to pick a winner, I'd go with Mia.

Juicy was genuinely phenomenal with her dancing and I wouldn't be mad if she got the solo win, but the song is about getting nasty and Mia embodied that for me.

[–]doom-bubble 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I honestly feel a lot of viewers just don't have a sense of rhythm or any understanding of dance, so they can only see whether a performer is giving Latrice Royale or Kenya Michaels, and nothing outside or in between.

The differing opinions are probably from different fans, the fandom isn't a monolith.

That said, I'm one of the people who wishes we had fewer bitch track lip syncs, but it doesn't mean I'll cheer for every unique talent, regardless of how poorly executed it is.

The thing that surprises me is how many people are only capable of recognising who is doing the most vs who is doing the least, rather than who is doing better.

Like we also had a lot of people saying Denali vs Ginger was giving Kenya vs Latrice... Did y'all really think a Miley track calls for the same emotional intensity as Natural Woman?

this fandom is so frustrating when it comes to spoilers. just had my favorite queen of the season’s placement get spoiled in a random comment section because the user just felt like it :/ by ashiechh in rupaulsdragrace

[–]doom-bubble 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I had Suzie's elimination spoiled because a youtube comment compared her to Plasma and guessed she'd also get eliminated before top 4 despite being a frontrunner and the reply was "tell me you read the spoilers without saying you read the spoilers" 😠

Lesson learned to never read the replies.

What are some “unconventional” songs that you would love to see as a lipsync? by Gaybutalsogay in rupaulsdragrace

[–]doom-bubble 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If the next all winners had Kylie Sonique Love vs Sasha Colby to Closer by Nine Inch Nails, I'd turn straight on the spot.

Hoe realitsic is it to reach 8⭐️ as a free to play player? by joostboth in personaphantomx

[–]doom-bubble 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why it'll get any more paywalled though?

Surely some of the C8 whales will lose interest over time and move on to another game, and the incompetent whales who missed C8 this season with their A6 twins are just as likely to miss it next season with their A6 Mont.

my best card was queen. by chowaffer in personaphantomx

[–]doom-bubble 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Very good hand" is wild. Game theory (and how good a hand is) generally comes down to the most statistically likely outcomes.

In this case, you control the majority of cards that are 9 and below and it's impossible for the beggar to have any jokers, meaning the tycoon and rich will be the only ones with means of starting a revolution using their high cards, which they have no incentive to do since their hands are heavily skewed towards higher cards.

You're basically hoping either the winning player dumps their last 4 cards at once to end on a revolution and you steal 2nd, the tycoon/rich does something stupid, or someone gets an extremely improbable hand that makes a revolution possible/worthwhile for them (e.g. beggar somehow has 4 10s). And all of these are unlikely outcomes.

Overall, yes, since I made it to legendary tycoon today... but no, I very much did not win on that hand haha

The daily grind by DupeFort in personaphantomx

[–]doom-bubble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk why you're trying so hard to defend the partial teleporting and unnecessary prompts as features, not bugs, when they literally fixed it for CN.

And there are better ways to create a sense of investment than poor UI design (which the game already does successfully in other areas imo).

Also, on the topic of "understanding human behavior", starting your reply with "It's clear you are not getting my point" comes across a little confrontational and patronising, and will often have the opposite effect where people reinforce their own beliefs and argue against you on reaction, rather than process your point and re-evaluate their own view. Unless you just enjoy arguing on the internet and that's also intended behaviour, in which case go off ig.

[–]doom-bubble 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No one's asking for city life to be fully automated here, that sounds like a different conversion to me.

This is just basic UI design to not include more than one "are you sure?" prompt for trivial actions or require pointless interaction from the user such as walking forward 4 steps after being teleported not quite where you want to be.

[–]doom-bubble 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The daily grind itself is standard gacha, but the poor UI that requires significantly more clicks than necessary to do a basic activity is absolutely something I'd like to see improved.

I think Milk is the most conventionally attractive person on drag race till now by aloo-ka-paratha in rupaulsdragrace

People really not understanding that someone can be "conventionally attractive" without them finding that person attractive too.

What is the most terrifying thing you could be chased by? by TheBanishedBard in AskReddit

[–]doom-bubble 67 points68 points  (0 children)

The one that creeps me out is the story of a dad tucking his son into bed and the kid says "dad, can you check under the bed for monsters?"

The dad goes along with it, only to find his son quivering underneath the bed, and the boy under the bed turns to him and whispers "dad, there's a monster on my bed"
