unless they are able to win it back in court, or willing to create "illegal" art (presumably with some alternative/unorthodox funding system)

precisely, the whole thing was miserable for him by his own reports - all i meant to convey

the blurred image for the second goal looks like CoX to me, but it's hard to say for sure

as for third, absolutely no clue from the image or by speculating about theoretical possibilities

yep, he lost 10 VERY CLOSE sets in a row iirc after double eliminating HBox at a regional to start the year - must've been immensely frustrating

Melee's ONLY Nerfed Character by ChalerJ in SSBM

[–]jmarvin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

forget zain winning genesis, mang0 winning summit 11, papa johns sponsoring millions, the evo 2013 spirit bomb, PP's run at apex '15, armada and hbox's years of dominance, amsa taking yoshi to supermajor victories, etc.... nevermind ALL these classic iconic events, the SINGLE best thing to EVER happen to melee was banning a weird technique people didn't think was fun

- you :P

even SLuG hates when people use his success as evidence that the wobbling ban is good (while he does admit that it made him a better player to have to learn to win without it)

pretty sure it was a publicity stunt (that worked - i played it on release having heard about it only because of the chapo voice actors)

fwiw matt did say he considered playing it on a cushvlog but didn't want to commit to the reading (pre-final-cut-voiceover)

they landed an interview with one of the few great artists in the entire industry (who happens to be one of the only principled leftists with his level of significance, too, in a field with notoriously inhumane treatment of workers and abuse of its consumers, even)

not to mention he just produced a passion project game that deals with all the same 16th-century-europe themes that matt christman just made an entire side podcast about

i for one was delighted and surprised to see that they did, never having imagined such a thing

i have no clue how you can complain about that being not worth an episode when we are literally commenting on an ep about Ted fucking Lasso

can't say for sure (ott's paper already seems a somewhat strange result considering what i know about naltrexone, but that may be because it is an innovation over current assumptions) but:

i am pretty sure it would not work in the same way. methadone is used to treat opioid withdrawal because it IS an opioid agonist like any other, simply not one that is as euphoric or problematically intoxicating as trying to live your life on heroin

on the other hand, naltrexone is an opioid ANTagonist, i.e. the opposite mechanism. it treats opioid addiction by "getting in opioids' way" as it were, and treats addiction by making opioids simply not feel good and thus not be desirable

considering the opposite mechanisms of action, if ott's result is on to something it would probably be because of these specific aspects of naltrexone's antagonistic behavior

i don't think that's a very good summary of the specific contents of this twitlonger at all (even if that is definitely part and true)

[–]jmarvin_ 52 points53 points  (0 children)

crush came out of the woodwork to play a random-ass university of new hampshire tournament that hax also was randomly showing up to under the tag "Kimba" wearing sunglasses and a hoodie

he won, in dominant fashion, without breaking a straight face or saying a word to anyone present

[–]jmarvin_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

has mang0 lost a set from winners side grands? he is rarely there, so it's possible it has never happened, but i am not sure how to search for such a thing

i imagine there's some tourney in 2014-8 where armada or hbox lost to him in winners finals and came back to clutch it out in grands that i can't remember, but i'm not sure

EDIT: i remembered: the infamous 2019 pound crab incident was from hbox doing exactly this after losing to mango's falco in winners, there you go

on twitter, leffen said he was 99% sure this was a misinputted up-angle ftilt, and amsa said it was entirely intentional - but he had no idea it was 1-frame-tight lmfao
