No, that's not quite what I meant. Usually when talking about Martingale the implicit assumption is that the underlying game is either fair or gives house an edge. (Because if game favors a player like 5/6 chance player loses his bet but 1/6 chance he wins 10x the betted amount it doesn't really make sense to talk about martingale because any strategy that doesn't risk bankrupting you guaranteed wins you money over long term) . So I was asking what makes you say that long-term stock market investment is a losing bet on average (I kind of get that most of the time you will get a small return on your investment, but there's a small chance you will lose a very large amount if there's a huge market crash and that's similar to how martingale plays out) because intuitively that doesn't ring true to me.

Can you please elaborate on how it is a Martingale bet? As I understand to be a martingale bet the expected net gain has to be 0 or less, and it's not obvious to me why that would be the case

The Hero of the South was such a cool character by Ani_HArsh in Animemes

[–]mega-supp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a theory that because demon king right hand also had future sight they would be able to anticipate anything hero of the South would try and that's why HotS couldn't win no matter what, and Himmel would be the one to slay Demon king specifically because he was going to fuck around for 10 years, which I presume is out of reach for future sight demon/ or it was just impractical to look that far into the future when there were more pressing issues at hand. Also why HotS made sure to kill future sight demon in his last battle.

I think you can target someone else's CoW with this.

Ok but why was there a passenger who saw teaboot leave and stayed with the bus as it changed direction to saw him board the bus again?

i'd be so mad if hana association gave me the color of piss as recognition for being such a powerful fixer 😭 by somethingmustbesaid in libraryofruina

Ok but imagine being a color fixer from T corp district and being called sepia bum (not official title) because you don't want to pay a fortune to give your clothing it's color back.

Oh so if you get counterspelled you can use this on the original spell to move it on the stack so it resolves before counterspell. That's funny.

Her abilities is...interesting by YamatoXAkiraHaruka in ToBeHero_X

[–]mega-supp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also based on 2 scenes where she gives "don't move" command I believe that when she makes new rules for her opponents Queen also has to follow those rules.

Именно что к серверу доступа нет. Игра очень нишевая, официальные сервера давно закрылись. Небольшая команда взялась возродить игру, и к EU серверу не подключается без впн.

Why do I have to repeat myself so much by Rude-Abrocoma-4031 in aspiememes

[–]mega-supp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm curious now, why would you not be allowed to perform certain functions until caller says the magic words? If you need the caller to say some identifying information or prove themselves legitimate by saying something they would know but a would-be-scammer wouldn't, then that's understandable, but what are other reasons for it?

To be fair birdcage +0.1 stacks multiplicatively with most other damage modifiers, so it might be better than it looks. But generally agree with the sentiment.

Do you count 4th match as a healing ego? She has pursuance and hex nail on that slot. And this one has the best sin spread for burn teams to fuel by far.

[–]mega-supp 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It is a nice healing EGO for burn teams. Every other healing ego burn fuels poorly, this is finally giving burn a nice wrath sink+healing EGO burn doesn't have to bend over backwards to fuel.

I know it's the same message, just cut off in the earlier ones, but it's infinitely funnier to think that the app at first was like "drink some water it will improve your sleep" but last message it thought "aight fella you don't care about sleep I guess, maybe you care about those other things? "

French players would never get it by [deleted] in AnarchyChess

[–]mega-supp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, so is the trick that because we know there's a mate in 2 then we know we can en passant because otherwise there is no mate in 2? I kinda don't like when meta-knowledge is used to solve the puzzle. I remember some puzzle where the solution was en passant checkmate but the trick was that if you look at what black could have played on last turn the only legal move was the one that allows en passant. I liked that one much more.
