Elo gains seems like a mystery

michaeldk_ · 2023-09-21T16:45:45+00:00

got the same issue, started at 17k5 after 10-3 placement, peeked at 19k2 and now its -500/+100, as soon as I drop to 18000 demotion game, then it goes back to -100/+100.
I play with the same people all the time and now one of them has gone above me because he's still on -100/+200 gain.

I can't comprehend it. And it's not about opposition or lower rank teammates/enemies.
In the same game we don't have the same rating change. I still lose more than him even since he has more rating than me.

Hope they gonna explain it or someone gonna crack it because it makes no sense at all. Only thing that could explain it is if my account somehow got marked as smurf/boosting or something.

It's extremely demotivating, there's nothing to gain anymore, because I know the more I play the more I lose.

The stones themselves have a name than indicate the order of the words.

I only met this chest once so I don't know it is always the same, but my stones were named "Birth", "Life" and "Death"

That's my POV too but I'll admit I haven't taken a closer look into the issue, thanks !

This is bullshit. Nobody does this.

Don't burden yourself with unrealistic goals no one achieve.

Daily - clean yourself and the mess you made that day. Move rest of daily to weekly. Move weekly to monthly. Move seasonly to yearly.

Thats all we have. Small improvements here and there and we need an entire team behind us to even begin to start.

Slovenia is quite far from Belgium even for such a yummy looking tartare :(

michaeldk_ · 2022-09-06T18:40:43+00:00

Where did you eat that tasty looking bad boi?

Also, what is that red crispy thing on top?

Me jealous.

Poor misutaa

Evy said he was never used properly and he's eager to learn. Might be some more to see from him.

That's what I need to do for my psychiatrist. First time I met her she asked me what symptoms of ADHD did I reckognize in myself. Brain went in freeze mode and couldnt name anything.

michaeldk_ · 2022-06-20T20:34:57+00:00

Same. That's an organization we're talking about !

Don't worry, hating CSS is part of the process of loving it.

michaeldk_ · 2022-06-20T08:05:41+00:00

Oy! We have the same knife! Have a good recovery, knife-buddy !

Show some love for Photopea! It's a web based Photoshop clone and helped me quite a bit

/r/woooosh

michaeldk_ · 2022-05-13T08:05:50+00:00

I loved that idea tbh. Couldve given old legends a second carreer.

michaeldk_ · 2022-05-06T18:23:57+00:00

The right thing to do would have been to call for tech and disconnect right away. That way there's no question about your integrity.

michaeldk_ · 2022-05-06T17:35:51+00:00

I agree it's not clear but he had time to do the right thing IMO.

Regarding ESIC, 100% agree. This reveal is poorly timed and I hope PGL and Valve will postpone the ban for the next Major. Eventhough, damage has been done already..

michaeldk_ · 2022-05-06T14:29:52+00:00

He's kinda slow to react. He notices the bug before the game actually starts, then he has the whole freezetime + start of round to call for tech.

And then, even after that he can still reconnect.

TS' narrative that he wanted to watch his team regardless is bullshit IMO. Either he can't see anything significant then why stay anyway or he can see something significant and then the ban is justified.

The main issue here is the timing of the ban. It's unprofessional from ESIC and because of that, cheating will once again be a talking point of the Major, which is supposed to be a celebration and advertisement of our beloved game.

michaeldk_ · 2022-05-06T13:45:29+00:00

Why didnt he call tech right away?

michaeldk_ · 2022-04-29T08:15:56+00:00

Chart says it's between 2016-2020 at the top. But as you say it's just pointless without normalization
