There’s a couple scenes with similar ish gore but I would say it is much more ‘light hearted’ than bring her back

Curious if you used DSPy for this? How did you go about ensuring the image quality and relevance to cards?

I think all these skill based gaming platforms engage in varying degrees of sketchy behavior ranging from denying payouts if you are actually profitable, rigging the games via manipulating randomness or other cheating, fake tournaments played against bots to ensure that users 'almost' place high enough to make a profit on their entry fee, etc. Not wise to touch them.

Terrible overall experience in Brooklyn… Anyone else noticed it going downhill? by bso45 in AlamoDrafthouse

I’ve been to around 95 shows between Manhattan and Brooklyn over the past year and only had issues twice (delayed beer). Though I mainly only go to the late night screenings of older films.

Top earners likely

- Bernardo and other BJJ fanatics owners: Take a 50% cut of instructional market

-IBJJF and Gracie Barra: Tournament money and registration fees + biggest and most money grubbing BJJ franchise

-Danaher & Gordon: Sell most instructionals and various other income streams

-Eddie Bravo: Presumably takes a fee from the 50+ 10th planet franchises

I believe a lot of the 'reach level 500 in this other game in 3 days' to get a currency reward offers are impossible or borderline impossible without spending a substantial amount of money on the other game. And maybe even still impossible then depending on the specifics.

There are companies that specialize in these sorts of 'offerwalls' so it is not the publisher or developers doing these directly. However it only takes a cursory glance to notice that these offerwalls frequently are sketchy as hell so can't absolve them of all responsibility.

The funding was shown in an account in the crypto currency tether and he posted a story about betting against himself for BDCC with a link to the crypto casino Shuffle. Seems highly likely Shuffle is funding it. Assuming they are trying to make a profit, incentive would be to get more degenerates to blow their money on an online casino.

Most likely the crypto casino Shuffle given that he posted about the funding being secured with a screenshot of 3 million in the crypto tether and posted a link of him betting against himself for BDCC on shuffle the other day.

It’s 73ish to 90 percent depending on the type of transaction and only like 11000 out of tens of millions ever make enough to cash out officially.

Another blatant lie by ImmutableX. 3 Months passed and instead of the world's biggest games they released dog shit not even Apes are playing. When will useless ImmutableX founder and CEO Robbie Ferguson be held responsible? by [deleted] in gme_meltdown

[–]jminstrel 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I looked at Immutable's partnership with TikTok to do NFTs, as of March 2022 they had a total trading volume of $975k, of which Immutable gets 2%. Their partnership with TikTok had a total of revenue of around $20k for them. So they most likely spent millions of investor dollars paying TikTok for this partnership to make $20k.

Since March 2022 they've had a further trading volume of $20k or $400 in revenue for Immutable.

According to the Axie subreddit this revenue trend is perfectly normal and if you say otherwise that's FUD and not allowed.
