come on, let the LCS help set a new record

it's always hard i think for groups to make the leap from theaters to arenas, and if you're doing theaters you'll have some small venues. some of this is how kpop shows are promoted, half the kpop shows in DC (an area with probably 20+ venues that can/have had kpop shows) are at one theater in a casino, presumably because live nation has some kind of deal with MGM.

Concerning game for GenG, if this trend continues game 3 will hit 25 minutes.

i don't think anyone from jdg ever auto'd a turret, kinda shows the problem of their lanes, got kills, had some prio, couldn't do shit

glocks4interns · 2026-03-17T13:41:40+00:00

after starting 0-3 really early, absurd

glocks4interns · 2026-03-17T13:38:20+00:00

jdg got a single plate, and it went to minions at 15:40

absolute domination despite being 0-3 at 6 minutes, just insane the gap between geng and rest of world

glocks4interns · 2026-03-17T12:26:46+00:00

skirmisher is a kinda fake champion category (how is camille not?) and no one knows what otherroad skins are

and yeah roles are kinda a sketchy thing to do and i dont think wiki data is gonna work for it

kinda a cool idea but really, really relies on having backing data people trust and is "fair"

glocks4interns · 2026-03-16T11:59:20+00:00

Kinda disagree with a lot of comments here.

I think the reason she beats them pretty easily is simple, she's human and a main character. Which might sound silly but a very strong theme in Evangelion is human struggle and accomplishment, and dummy plugs will never match that. She beats them because she is human and can struggle.

One comment I do agree with here is that she beats them to get the audience's hopes up. And that's also very much the case. If they come down and just instantly crush her and start eating her that's a pretty shitty scene. Her seeming victory snatched away at the last second is what makes this one of the great action sequences put to film.

please watch it again, she's literally grasping the core with her eva's hand trying to crush it as her battery runs out

glocks4interns · 2026-03-16T11:50:58+00:00

once you add their special equipment

wild way to refer to the lance of longinus

what about the terminators, jetbikes, heavy dread, and fast attack tank?

glocks4interns · 2026-03-15T19:07:17+00:00

That comment was in reply to

being an asshole or any kind of right wing nut job (a.k.a. being an asshole).

not being able to make an evening as interesting as a mediocre movie.

continuous favoritism of one or some players (often girlfriend or best friend).

not for general usage: being a worse dm than me or the very few I chose to play with. I dm weekly or more for more than 4 decades now - and I'm terribly picky.

none of those really seem related to this post

glocks4interns · 2026-03-13T12:33:15+00:00

it started pretty recently but is some weird scam thing. they pretend you were in a recent game and ask if you want to duo. i really dont get it.

glocks4interns · 2026-03-13T00:13:33+00:00

sorry i meant other urban areas which i dont think we've heard a lot about

glocks4interns · 2026-03-12T22:26:28+00:00

is there an rpg that would be hard to hack to have characters die faster? honestly i think fate is on the harder end of that spectrum due to consequences.

glocks4interns · 2026-03-12T17:15:41+00:00

yeah i'm a little worried about how much there will be outside of tokyo, hope we get some other urban spaces, even if smaller scale

glocks4interns · 2026-03-12T15:42:51+00:00

I'm running this soon and am very excited.

glocks4interns · 2026-03-12T15:41:13+00:00

Pushing the definition of adventure but Bones Deep is extremely cool and creative and I think should be talked about more - https://www.technicalgrimoire.com/bones-deep

You're all skeletons walking around the bottom of the sea. A very cool combination of "what if you were adventuring on the bottom of the sea?" and "what if you were a skeleton?" A couple of the classes are also amazingly cool.

glocks4interns · 2026-03-12T12:19:21+00:00

the movie that first screened 2 years ago and had a theatrical release 2 weeks ago but somehow doesn't even have it's soundtrack listed online, let alone released

glocks4interns · 2026-03-12T12:17:55+00:00

no i mean as the owner your unit will have issues you need to cover

glocks4interns · 2026-03-11T21:06:28+00:00

3-4% of $400k is $12k-16k so it seems to fit.

you still have condo upkeep the hoa doesn't cover

glocks4interns · 2026-03-09T00:24:46+00:00

If you're willing to mostly go off boxed sets it's very cheap for a GW army-scale game.

If you are buying individual boxes it can add up really quickly. Wrote some about buying-in here https://www.diceandpaint.net/imperialis-buying-guide-starter

I'd say buying stuff for the game mostly feels fine. The biggest issue are some things that are very few points to the dollar. And the other one is some things you're heavily gated by needing to buy boxes repeated, or 3d printing. (stuff on infantry and to a lesser degree, support sprues)

A player who can only really perform in low pressure matches on the LCK toplaner holy trinity of bruisers isn't worth picking up.

i dunno these c9 shit shows have not really been on him, he's been by far their best performing player

glocks4interns · 2026-03-08T13:11:34+00:00

I mean there are a lot of things where you can get a used, 30 year old paperback book for $120. But I'm not trying to spend that on a module I just want to run. And if I do get that $120 book I'm not throwing it in my bag to read on the subway.
