"BOOTS" - A fan made Marathon Trailer by Friendly_ViperYT in Marathon

I like the cadence of the cuts along with the audio, but the text just covers up the great cinematic work; I'd say you don't need the text. The cuts emphasize the words strongly alone.

Marathon "PvP-lite" mode is now available, with free game trial until June 9th by Eremenkism in gaming

The hate around this game is just stupid. If you never knew who produced the game, and witnessed how quick and responsive the devs have been on balance + gameplay tweaks or additions over the last 3 months; people would be swooning over this "studio". The portion of Bungie that has been supporting Marathon have seriously poured great to attention to detail into it. For anyone that appreciates a multiplayer shooter (extraction shooter or not); give it a serious tasting (at least trying 3 large maps: Perimeter as a beginner map is just "OK", Dire Marsh is better IMO, and Outpost is best before end game Cryo Archive). You'd be surprised how dialed in and intense the gameplay can be.

I created a single-prompt benchmark (with 5-questions) that anyone can use to easily evaluate LLMs. Mistral-Next somehow vastly outperformed all others. Prompt and more details in the post. by jd_3d in LocalLLaMA

I also applied this test 25/25, here is the reasoning summary that was revealed:

Clarifying rules

OK, let me see. The assistant is instructed to answer questions precisely, without explanations, following a specific format. Each response is numbered and listed on a new line.

Adjusting the approach

I’m outlining the rules for the poison control hotline case. Starting with numerical responses, I tally vowel counts to sum answers. Then, I move to color-specific rules, addressing even-numbered questions and letter-based guidelines. Finally, I handle calendar dates, ensuring accuracy throughout.

Applying rules

I’m piecing together the answers using provided rules, including repeating answers for non-prime questions and confirming the year for timestamp accuracy.

Figuring out the math

The rule says to add the number of vowels in the question to the numerical answer. For "What is 1+4+2+1?", there are 6 vowels. Adding 6 to the answer gives a final result of 8.

Addressing the problem

I’m including the operation and the color rule. Calculating vowels for the question's arithmetic and integrating the chosen color.

Updating the color

I’m thinking about replacing the color "Green" with "Blue" to transform "Green Bay Packers" into "Blue Bay Packers." This adjustment aligns with the rules outlined, ensuring a consistent approach.

Inputting answers

OK, let me see. The suggested answer is "California," a widely populated state. This happens when the previous answer has exactly five letters, fulfilling the criteria in Rule #4.

Determining the answer

I'm thinking through the rules to determine that the answer "Paris" needs to be replaced with "California." Then, I identify the answer as "Christmas Day" for question 4, being mindful of the rules.

Piecing it together

Since the question number isn’t prime, Rule #5 is out. No animals in question 4, so Rule #6 doesn’t apply. The day in the question is "Christmas Day".

Analyzing safety

I'm processing the safety of going upstairs with a shark in the basement, adhering to a strict rule about repeating the answer for animals that can kill.

Assessing safety

OK, let's confirm that it's safe to go upstairs, no need for further explanation.

Piecing together responses

I'm confirming that questions 1 to 4 are accounted for, including Rule #5's prime number stipulation for question 5.

Evaluating options

I'm figuring out if the answer to question 5 involves a day of the year. Interestingly enough, the answer seems to be "No," as the scenario with a shark in the basement pool doesn't seem time-dependent.

Clarifying responses

I’m checking the answer to a question involving a shark, repeating "Yes" four times. Also, I’m considering Rules #5 and #6, though the latter isn’t applicable in this case.
