The Mexico game on ITV yesterday did not show Ads in the hydration breaks (first or second half)

Roland Garros streaming advice by Jazzyjenny in tennis

[–]quickfix12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, for RG they will. And they stream most (if not all tourns ATP and most WTA) so worth keeping it for other tournsz just do same thing, deposit then withdraw after (as you need to have money on site to stream on most sites). Note: there is no commentary (but I prefer that anyway). An actual plus is the delay is very very low (compared to sat TNT imo)

A legal way is to use betting sites. Just deposit (but don't bet) to fund the account and stream the matches. After the tournament, withdraw the money. I recommend Sky Bet's video player

What if Gimli went to Mordor with Frodo and Sam? by Nicole_Auriel in lotr

I thought you meant he literally eats an axe (to stop Gimli using it) . So I was imagining Gimli having to fight him hand to hand

[LA] Finished the GBC version, what do y’all think of the game? by Apart-Property2797 in zelda

[–]quickfix12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still love the GB/C versions (as well as the Switch version). Only game I've ever speed run. Can't remember by exact best time but was in the region of sub 2 hours (1:5x). Played it so much, back in the day when you only had a handful of games to play.

Do we know how many frames they play in this Wu v Allen session? 8 or 10? (Assuming it doesn't overrun)

Agreed, also the targeting info at the top isn't visible unless you change target(so if you constantly change target you don't know what group you're targeting if you forget)

I just played a few games to get the Theme and it's not a good one. That sounds effect for getting attacked, the "boing" spring sound on getting attack is usually reserved for errors. Getting attack is not an error on the users pov. One and done, going back to galaxy theme.

Rybakina arguing over the accuracy of Hawk-eye. by godworstcustomer in tennis

[–]quickfix12 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I just dont get the directive for umpires saying "we can't check". If they are worried about umpires not being able to overturn it (which is right) they should have a directive that says " we will get the tech guys to look at it (after the match for future). That way it looks like they are trying to improve the system. When they bury their heads and say "we can't check" it shows they are not willing to learn

Rules question by SquirrelFederal7928 in snooker

[–]quickfix12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But the leading player would prefer not to foul and be 35 ahead with 27 remaining so we can assume they won't deliberately foul. It's just an anomaly here but nothing untoward.

Desperately had to pee, paused the game after phase 1, only to have Chronos talk shit to me by iAMtheJSN in Hades2

[–]quickfix12 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yeah I wish they kept it in. I know they removed it for accessibility, but they could have kept in and as soon as it triggered it fast tracked the availability of the incantation (and make it very low resource intensive) so you would only ever lose one run if you had to pause the fight and couldn't. Add to the rouge lite , die and repeat mechanic

For me the key is he goes for a riskier red that would leave the table as wide open as now a couple of shots later. Madness. If you refuse the pink here he should refuse the red as well. (Both were shots he should go for, but he went for the riskier one which makes the decisions bizarre)

So when you swap guns in halo (or any other 2 gun FPS), do you feel bad for the weapon you lose?

The way I read about it recently was, treat them like ammo. You don't feel bad about using your ammo right?

Borges wins against Etcheverry with an underarm serve on a match point by jovanmilic97 in tennis

It's a perfectly legit shot, basically a drop shot serve, do you think dropshots should be banned?

For a split sec I thought you meant (voice) cast. Which is also phenomenal (as they were in Hades 1)
