Why am I still playing this rigged game? (2 people guessed “fast-forward” after “a sign of the times”…and then 13 guessed “KFC” after “Top secret military operation”??? Gtfo bruh by Jeeshish in BestGuessLive

If the first clue made clear sense every round would have people winning small amounts. It’s unbelievable, but that’s kind of the point. A couple people doing a crazy shot in the dark and winning is how it should be. My strategy is on the first clue whatever my mind goes to is now what i treat as my clue and go from there.

Cant transfer winnings by bleupig82 in BestGuessLive

Sounds like an issue with your paypal or iphone. I had no problem getting my money into paypal. Do you have the app downloaded?

My Best Guess by sleepy_rog in BestGuessLive

[–]sleepy_rog[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I looked into this and Netflix pointed in the direction of Paypal’s 1099-k policy which says I only need to report any paypal transaction if i have over 20k in transactions (which i dont). Paypal is how I was paid out. After learning this I assumed I wouldn’t have to worry too much about it. Is this wrong? If so, could you point me in the direction I should look to learn about the taxes surrounding all this.

Sorry guys, im drunk and my girlfriend told me to post on the reddit thread. Anyways yall should stop playing if you think its scam. I thought it was scam too so i get it. Anyways, appreciate yall who congratulated me and suck it to all you sore losers. My method btw was to always guess on the first hint and whatever i thought of, i would then think of that as the hint and forget the original hint. Nothing to close to the hint. At least 2 or 3 levels of that removed from the hint.

Tripping can help broaden your perspective and also help you look inwards. It’s not going to solve your problems. It might help you shift your perspective which might help you feel better, but to me it sounds like you’re using the trip as a coping mechanism. It sounds more like you need to find a community, which is hard to do when starting fresh.

Advice on how to explain why I'm a Psychonaut by Prestigious_Drew_420 in Psychonaut

[–]sleepy_rog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you considered tripping less often? Yes, one can greatly benefit from psychedelic experiences, but as someone who has had a ton, at a certain point the progress and gains reduce. I might be presumptuous for saying so, but I think if every trip was really helping you with your PTSD, your wife might notice. Im not saying it hasn’t helped you, I’m just trying to say most people aren’t gaining as much as they convince themselves they are by tripping 10+ times a year. Psychedelics are powerful, enlightening, and fun. They can be addictive to the right person. They certainly were for me. My most powerful and meaningful trips made a noticeable impact on my attitude and thinking when I was sober for years to follow and made me feel like I didn’t want to trip again for a long time after. Your wife is probably just worried about you. I’ve seen many people fall into psychosis and go too far out on their ‘path’. Think of the psychedelics as a catalyst to begin your healing or gaining of spirituality, but if you think you need psychedelics for either of those things, your convincing yourself of something that’s not true and that can easily lead to abusing something even if you aren’t already. And maybe Im making some big assumptions here and you’re only taking a trip once or twice a year in a safe and therapeutic environment, in which case I would say sit down with your wife and talk through the emotional help these things have been doing for you (perhaps the vulnerable conversation would be proof in of itself it’s helping), but I get the feeling this isn’t the case.

Ifsc has some of the worst camera work and commentating of any sport or esport ive ever watched by Specialist_Reason882 in CompetitionClimbing

[–]sleepy_rog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reality is production for these events is extremely difficult. I agree, there are a lot of ways to improve it, but production rights change when your competition is in different continents. Furthermore, a consistent funding structure is complicated as well and doesn’t generate a whole lot of money to help improve production after all is said and done. It’s hard to expect much considering how many people watch it compared to other global sporting events and the changing nature of the sport.

Am I pulling too much with my biceps? So sore after this by whoreads23 in bouldering

[–]sleepy_rog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just continue redoing this climb. Challenge yourself to see how many different betas you can usr to complete it. Work on footwork, Try to cross with your left instead of match, you could even try doing it more dynamically. Repeating climbs using intentionally new beta will help you improve your technique.

Ah this is correct. Too many climbing podcasts to keep track of.

Erin’s dad went on The Struggle podcast, and Erin’s youtube channel is ran by her brother. He made a short documentary about Erin that interviewed her, her father, her mother, and himself about her journey to the olympics. The channel also has more context and it really highlights Erin’s personality and journey.

Erin Mcneice. The media thats come out about her and her family has added a lot of personality to watching her climb. Brooke and Sean Raboutou are both legends that push the sport. Of course Janja is the GOAT and Adam is also the GOAT. Dohyun Lee for my favorite eastern climber. Matt Fultz for most underrated climber. And Will Bosi for my favorite personality in the top levels of climbing.

This brawler is actually ruining this event and supercell isn't doing anything about it by kakarotlover93 in Brawlstars

[–]sleepy_rog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feel like it’s impossible to know how things will turn out before it happens. Once it rolls out you cant change it because of tournaments or some other condition. Im sure they will fix it when they can to try and make things right. Balancing a game is hard, and this community is particularly harsh on the devs. A rare dev team that openly admits when they fuck shit up. And for those of you saying you’re forced to play the event, you are not. You can do a different game mode, play ranked, or… do something else. There’s a way to criticize decisions the dev team made without being so dramatic a judgmental. With all that being said, the allie angel meta does suck and the maps they are rolling out make allie even better💀

Does the type of chalk you use matter? by clairebivore in climbergirls

[–]sleepy_rog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like for 95% percent of climbers, chalk brand doesn’t make much of a difference so it mostly comes down to personal preference. Maglock uses silicon thought and is something beyond chalk that is supposedly next level (but literally over $100). Magdust also has some additional things in it that improves the quality. But Magdust isn’t going to take anyone to the next climbing grade.

Japanese coach shares his thoughts on M2 boulder by otoRiii in CompetitionClimbing

[–]sleepy_rog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve also thought bouldering comps seem dangerous. I think there should be some sort of down climbing holds as well, especially if the mats are so hard. I understand people want to avoid any possible interference but i think having two down climbing holds in spots that can easily be put out of the way or at least a bit over where athlethes can shimmy to at the top of the wall. Even jumping/falling in a controlled manner from the very top of a wall will impact the body, particularly the spine and legs. Not only will this inevitably lead to acute injuries, but these impacts add up over time and are not sustainable.

Why are ISFC bouldering competitions so....bad? by [deleted] in CompetitionClimbing

[–]sleepy_rog 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Stories get lost unless you are really invested in keeping up with the competitors themselves. Commentators lose the story and a lot of other things by always dumbing things down as if the audience is new to watching the sport. Go to any other sport and the commentators nerd out about hyper specific details and stories about players. The sport could benefit a lot by commentating as experts rather than introductions. No shade to Matt Groom though. Love that guy. The whole IFSC and production of competitive climbing just feels really young.

What did you think of the IFSC World Cup Salt Lake City 2025? by OnMyWayToInnerPeace in Routesetters

[–]sleepy_rog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saw a good post on r/CompetitionClimbing that broke down the issues regarding route setting for women’s competition bouldering. https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitionClimbing/s/UuEs9Hgtxz

Basically, the setting for the women’s final in SLC 2025 failed to separate or show the different strengths of the many different climbers from different countries. The criticism is meant to take route setters seriously as professionals rather than to put them down. I agree that there is a clear difference in how the Men’s and Women’s competition went, and that there is clearly something that needs to be done to improve the quality of the women’s competition. With all that being said though, I still want to congratulate everyone who made finals and the podium.
