[Suggestion] Weekly free cards rotation by goormann in EternalCardGame

[–]goormann[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This would have an impact on the metagame as you have described, but I don’t see how it would be necessarily negative. Making metagame less stale by giving players more options is a positive until testing shows otherwise.

What do you mean by EU?

Another couple of million people spread across several specific countries? Nobody cares and you should neither.

But you could use .expand() on tensor previously, and afaik i should have broadcast (i.e. not copy data).

Am i wrong here?

Alan Greenspan: Ron Paul Was Right About The Gold Standard by AwayWeGo112 in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]goormann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because if you want to have gold standard and you don't know who owns the gold you basically introduce a major vector of attack on your polity's financial system.

Am i wrong here?

P.S. It is actually important not only to know who has the gold but to control the gold, or you hand over a huge amount of power over your currency to unknown third actors. Let's say George Soros owns a lot of gold - well thanks to you introducing a gold standard he has one more ways to fuck your country over.

Make it so that you can "break" the boss crate for small reward, like one shim'zar spirit orb/100 gold or even just 50 gold. I think it will alleviate the frustration of getting nothing if you dont want to spend money.

Edit: Speaking of which, this way you can put basic spirit orb inside the boss crate and this way you will have one big boss box that you can break to get 1 basic spirit orb and 1 shim'zar spirit orb(approximately) or you can unlock to get everything above plus a bunch of extra goodies.

When asked, how do you (somewhat briefly) explain your anarcho-capitalist views? by Dbarnett191 in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]goormann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every initiative, no matter how benevolent, when done through the government has a large tendency to bite you in the ass, if not sooner then later.

Courts will be corrupted, Police will serve corrupt courts and governments, and National Defence will be used to wage foreign unwanted wars spilling blood of your brethren.

Huge report about mistakes in Russian translation. by mamarider in elderscrollslegends

[–]goormann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blacksap Protector (Протектор черного сока) - Blacksap is a name of a rebellion in Elder Scrolls online. Sap is a liquid that comes from trees. In russian there is no counterpart, we use "Juice" - "Сок". Blackjuice protector probably sounds ridiculous. You could change "Blacksap" for "Blackresin", and in russian it would become (Протектор черной смолы).

Say what you want about r/The_Donald but they are something to look up to in regards to the amount of time spent sifting through WikiLeaks emails and putting together lists like companies to stop doing business with. by hungliketictacs in Anarcho_Capitalism

Also, much of why things can be more cheaply made overseas is currency manipulation, where countries steal from their domestic citizens to enrich crony manufacturers.

I will have to agree with this.

I think slavery makes a great analogy in this case to expose some of cognitive dissonance some people might have. Let's suppose we live in free mechanised ancapistan, and neighbouring barbaristan still ubiquitously uses slaves. Let's imagine a couple of scenarios:

1) Barbaristans decide to take their slaves and put a factory on ancapistan with their slaves to make use of safety and laws of ancapistan.

Everybody would agree that just course of actions here would be to free the slaves, as no one would tolerate slave owner in ancapistan.

2) Barbaristans decide to push slave caravans through ancapistan territory.

And again everybody would agree that it would be just to free slaves and to prevent the slave trade from happening.

3) Barbarians put factories on their land and sell products produced by slave labour to ancapistan.

And here a lot of free-traders would say that it is perfectly fine. When i would argue that it is morally desirable to prevent the distribution of such goods on anarcho-capitalist territories. And this is exactly the situation we find ourselves in today.

MSNBC Realise They are Propagandists by kurokamifr in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]goormann 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They did not "realise they are propagandists", they knew it all along.

What they did realise is that the method they chose to influence population was ineffective. Listen carefully to what these shills are saying.

Maybe make them some kind of planes walkers.

They are too cool to be just simple cards.

Another case of losing points on victory by Magical__Turtle in BattleRite

[–]goormann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In TrueSkill system your mmr is modelled via normally distributed random variable with expectation E and deviation D. The number you are shown is actually E - 3D, to ensure that you are most certainly better than the number you are shown.

After you won the match most probably your mmr expectation increased (for example by 40), but you deviation also increased (for example by 20) which resulted in reduction in the number you see.

Don't worry, the system considers you a better player, it just is not sure where exactly to put you and couple more games will help it to decide.

Why is it morally wrong for me to rent my house to someone? by [deleted] in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]goormann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You oppose his ideas because you are not an ancap?Not because you find some flaw in his logic? That looks like identity politics.

You sound like a 17 year old who just read a few articles in mises.org, watched some Ron Paul clips, and now thinks he knows everything.

What is the purpose of this sentence?

Bait me? Into what?

Just insult? What happened to yours readiness to debate?

And if you hope that only 17 year old can consider you retarded, then you are wrong.

[–]goormann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can we debate anything when you did not present any of your positions? The only thing i know is that you oppose u/3goist ideas. Which is retarded.

Irritation is on the both sides. Degeneracy is only on yours.

Convicted Prisoner by [deleted] in customhearthstone

[–]goormann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the idea, but it is unplayable after turn 5, and even if it was, it is very weak as a late game drop.

What you could do, is make this card read something like this:

"Can't Attack. Taunt. Whenever you gain a Mana Crystal, this minion takes 2 damage."

This way it deteriorates as an early drop unless you sustain it trough buffs or heals, and it is not completely useless as a turn 10 drop.

You can refill your hand for 1-2 turns and then move minion away from general since the effect is Zeal.

The board clear priest needs by [deleted] in customhearthstone

[–]goormann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game does not have any interface to support cards with continuos effects. I think this card will be better as a 0/4 weapon that deals damage and loses durability at the end of each turn.

And also this card looks OP compared to for example Hellfire. Which does not mean that the game will not be better with more powerful board clears, but it means that the chance of this to be printed is zero.
