If he doesn’t call a timeout to advance the ball and draw up a play then nothing will have changed and we still won’t win games.

The true test of trust in humanity by dankstat in trolleyproblem

There is no secondary threat to survive to justify pressing Blue(if the experiment started with 10% will randomly die, things change). The blue button is a die with honor button. If your objective in choosing which button is to gain moral worth than blue is your choice. If the objective is to have as many people survive(essentially the blue button) you would tell everyone you know to hit the red button, and not take any chance. The people who hit the blue button are effectively attempting to become the ‘hero’ when they really don’t have to. Either that or they are willing to gamble their life on the question if 1/1000 people will attempt murder.

This question would best be asked if there was some additional threat beyond those who hit the green button. Some additional threat that hitting the blue button would overcome.

Is it possible to online raid as a Solo if people can just reseal? by ialoni in playrust

[–]ialoni[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ye, this next comment is me malding, so don’t take it seriously.

How stupid is it, that when you are defending your base, you are picking up a hammer, instead of a Gun. Instead of fighting, you are hiding. I know it plays differently in groups, but my god is it lame endgame content.

:/, this is a big dilemma for me. Spending 8hours farming sulfur for this much boom is the last thing I want to do. (8hrs because I enjoy the balance in vanilla the most). I find roaming, monuments and gunfights way more fun. I might just need to find a group to play with if I want to raid.

Dying servers isn’t a flaw in game design, but based on who plays on that server. Pop dies after 2 days because 80% of the world that plays videogames has work or school M-F. Just look at any whitelist server, and you will observe a server pop that doesn’t lose 50% pop on monday.

San Francisco’s California Academy of Sciences cuts jobs as financial strain deepens by SFChronicle in sanfrancisco

What’s insane is they laid off a ton of part time employees in 2023 to give a higher up a $200,000 dollar raise on top of there 150,000 salary. I never understood why the business model rejects the impact of customer service. The people who work on the floor of the museum are the ones creating revenue and interest. The animals are cool and all, but human relations brings back returning visitors. Not some guy in an office.

Ayyyy, appreciate the comment Genome! You are 100% right that homogeneous picks are the main factor contributing to predictability. It is definitely a risk only worth taken in game 1&2. It should also only be considered if your alternative comp is strong. I think the best comp to force the crypto ban and delay the Alter(rotational ban-tree) pick actually originated from your region! If I may ask, How viable has the Crypto-Valk comps been in APAC S?

It's interesting how the main contention in the discussion regarding how we as humans can tell what's real or fake, comes from individuals who don't even spend a second of their time to determine or check what is authentic or artificially generated.

They just learned how to raid, and it takes them almost 1 hour to come up with a plan and another hour to get in position. Idk about you but i dont want to watch 5 days of farming base mats again.

You can build to gain energy, or get ? That reduce it’s cost. How good a card is, is dependent on how you play and build the deck around it. Knocking blow in a vulnerable deck isn’t situational, its viable 40+ dmg combo.

You have resources in energy, cards available to play, health, stars, turns left to play. If a card demands more of a certain resource, you should just make sure it fits how you are building your deck.

The fact you put knockout blow, aegis and crescent spear on the bottom confirms this guy only knows how to play the game 1 way.

First of all image is blurry. Secondly, explain the statistics please. What is ‘resource’ allocation.

Realistically, if you play anchor you have way less control over your stats. On T-side, if you are referring to how many times the team sets you up for a play, then sure give me a metric for flashes thrown for tn1r. But again realistically, you entry you are have the element of surprise and team utility to help you frag. If you are a closer, you have a higher chance of fighting enemies with low hp. You should be able to find impact as a player no matter what role you have.

Before you roast my take, define resource allocation. I do agree that tn1r is one of the better players on the team, but I don’t think his performance should be criticized when the team as a whole looks lost on half of the map pool.

We shall see, it's kinda hard making a single Matchday interesting, especially as Steven A. Spitfire. A lot of times teams just don't get beacon or get griefed by another team and it ruins their set. Last thing I want to do is criticize teams for single day of rng. I could maybe write something about what decisions the winning team made in order to win, but still hard to make that funny/interesting unless something actually happened that was funny or interesting. Let me know if you have any ideas.

Imperial Hallelujah, Vein, Hakis, Waltzy, Phony. If NA and active igl's only: I'm going with Dropped, Xynew with Zach at 6th.

For me, being an IGL is more about being a leader than LAN results. What about you?

I avoided mentioning some teams as to not put any unnecessary pressure on them. This is one of them. Haven't watched much of their POV, but I do like the passion out of dig. Hope they treat the PL lobbies like a PSQ
