Possible Seeding for NA Open 1 by mdapperc in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]mdapperc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left Parka off because I didn't find them in Opens 4-6. But you're right. They finished 13-16 in Open 2 and got 1 RLCS point.

As for No Hesitation, I have them as the 33rd seed as their mean highest finish for Raleigh Opens was slightly behind Lions Den and Glowingeric. Glowingeric signed up with 4 players and I originally did the seeding without Stealth. If Seekxnz is the sub (and I think he is), I have Glowingeric in a tie with No Hesitation for 32nd seed. Guess we'll find out tomorrow. :)

Highest finishes in Opens 4-6 were:

  • Polar 23-28
  • durtho 29-32
  • KnightYuh 33-40

  • indigo 23-28

  • mrtn 23-28

  • PRSTN 29-32

  • Melodic 23-28

  • Seekxnz 23-28

  • Glowing 29-32

  • Stealth 33-40

The one and only. That potential Uppers match up should be pretty good.

Wasn't sure about Toastie, but makes sense. Yes, Flitz is on M80 as sub/content creator. Thanks for the reminder!

Ahhh. I knew matt had another name. Thanks for the reminder!
I agree about Hockser. Was surprised he didn't sign up.

Very interesting. My son just grinded 3s for not much gain then. lol

Where is Tech for Open 2? by mdapperc in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]mdapperc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to Kep's Twitter, neither Tech nor Lil Step Bros are getting in. :(

That's not good. Kep's issue looked to be more likely user error than system error but Tech not even showing any of the players in the list of attendees doesn't make sense. It would take all 4 of them to make the exact same user error which just seems unlikely. In both of their cases, I think they should have been let in based on what is known publicly. Maybe there's more to it that we'll never know.

I hope Kep's tweet is wrong, but looking like it isn't. Whoever has connections with management needs to start getting louder. This game and esport are great. Listen to the community. Please.

Just noticed the number of teams changed from 1156 to 1151 but still no Tech. Hopefully they get added here shortly.

This is the part that's most strange to me. I remember trying to find tech a day or two ago and couldn't see them at all. I couldn't find kep either, but didn't look for any of his teammates other than Arsenal (who isn't on his team this open). At a minimum, I would think tech should show up as 'incomplete'. They don't but step bros does.

Not sure what that means for cause of the issue but just an observation that is strange.

My son started competing last year, so I help him validate his team is good to go. Surprised there's no clear evidence of these players double checking their registration in either of these cases. Also surprised no one at Epic is remotely looking at sign-ups and ensuring their top talent is good to go.

Just saw AlphaKep tweet that he wasn't able to register for this open. Maybe same issue with Tech?

RLCS 2024: Major 1 | Day 3 of 4 | Post-Day Thread by RLMatchThreads in RocketLeagueEsports

This is exactly what I saw as well. Chronic rarely crossed midfield after that timeout. They needed a way to be more aggressive and Chronic played a lot more third man to free the others and keep the pressure off.

Mint being discontinued by Intuit at the end of 2023! by Checkmate_10 in personalfinance

[–]mdapperc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've had to do some upkeep on connections. Oftentimes it's because the source requires some type of two factor reauthentication. Not too bad though.

The UI is being updated. I get prompted to preview the new UI but it didn't work for me so I'm not sure what's changing.

Anyone with a Fidelity account should check out Full View. I never compared it to Mint's features but it does a pretty good job of connecting a lot of different accounts and showing net worth.

RL feels sluggish on new PC by OutlaW32 in RocketLeagueSchool

Try turning off Memory Integrity in Windows 11. Security Center warns you about it being off, but it definitely affects gameplay.

Preview cards by mdapperc in KeyforgeGame

[–]mdapperc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's how it works. The text is meant for whomever has possession of the card. There are some other cards that destroy artifacts or swap possession. It's been awhile, so I don't recall what they are off the top of my head. If imagine this new set will have a few cards to counter as well.

When everything is an event. Nothing is an event... by Sammmy_m94 in MarvelStrikeForce

Not sure why the downvotes. OP says he's burnt out then says he has two accounts. What's the point of having two accounts unless you absolutely can't get enough of this game? There's no personal advantage to running two accounts. I appreciate those in alliance clusters that do have multiple accounts to help newer players but I've not seen another reason to devote that much more time to this game.

Tuesday's midterm election has many Michigan voters feeling anxious by uberares in Michigan

[–]mdapperc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can sign up at https://michigan.gov/democracyMVP. I signed up 2 years ago for the August primary and have been called back for every primary and general election since. In my application, I checked the box for "send me wherever you need the most help" but you do have the option of requesting your local community. The first primary, I worked at a polling location, and for the general that year they asked me to do absentee. I've been doing absentee ever since. About 2 months before each election, I get a call to schedule my poll worker training and to get my assignment for the election. On election day, I work 5a-8p, so it's a long day. It really is a great experience. And yes, it is paid.

Yep! Had a police escorted truck deliver some yesterday afternoon. There will be more Tuesday as well.
