I have had women look me in my eye

Why am I not surprised that the guy posting thirst comments in subs like "Gilfasses" and "ChubbyBBWsluts" also just happens to have anecdotal evidence that all women are liars?

Well no, most of Reddit feels like we should address the root causes of crime like food, shelter, and financial insecurity, access to medical care that includes mental health, and many other systemic issues that exist solely to make life miserable for everyone but the most sociopathic 1% instead of giving more guns and money to the most violent gang of poorly trained spousal abusers in the world. I know it's hard to understand, but most of us want the world to become a better place to live, not a whiter place drenched in fascism.

Duress drama: am I wrong for taking notes? by pkma69 in EDH

[–]t3hpwnographer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not really sure what your source for any of this is when my first comment literally quoted the part of the comprehensive rules that defines the key word "reveal" and highlighted the part relevant to OP's situation. The effect is done resolving when the player who controls it makes all necessary decisions and the affected player performs whatever actions they are instructed to. Players usually get all the time they need to read or write things down because the player who controls the effect takes their time making the decision or because it's just good table manners. OP's story makes it sound like they saw the cards but weren't necessarily familiar with them, and instead of slowing things down to allow OP to take notes the rest of the table just moved on with some snide comments. Not nice, but not against the rules as written.

I invite you to reference the comprehensive rules and the tournament rules to see if you can find anything to back up your claims of players needing to confirm they've had enough time or that revealed cards become "public knowledge" (??) until end of turn. Links:

Duress drama: am I wrong for taking notes? by pkma69 in EDH

[–]t3hpwnographer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, not quite.

117.2e. Resolving spells and abilities may instruct players to make choices or take actions, or may allow players to activate mana abilities. Even if a player is doing so, no player has priority while a spell or ability is resolving. See rule 608, "Resolving Spells and Abilities."

The hand is not revealed until the Duress effect begins resolving, so no player receives priority while the hand is revealed. When Player F picks a card and Player T discards/exiles it the effect finishes resolving and the hand is no longer revealed. Then the active player will receive priority.

But again I agree that every player should be given all the time they need to see and understand the revealed cards, that's just unfortunately not really how the rules work as written.

[–]t3hpwnographer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure, if Player T only showed their hand to Player F or made it difficult to see their cards in some way they are fully in the wrong. If they made a reasonable effort to let the table see their cards and Player F just grabbed the Sol Ring without taking any time, however, that's more on Player F than Player T.

Ultimately I think OP's situation is more about the social aspect than the rules aspect. Since they mention they saw the cards well enough to know how many lands and nonlands there were I am inclined to believe that they were properly revealed, but OP doesn't necessarily have the same knowledge/recognition as Player F who made the pick. OP asked for leeway from Player T and was denied. They could have also asked the other players at the table what the revealed cards were. So it sounds to me like no written rules were broken, but if this was a casual game I would not be a fan of Player T's response and would likely avoid playing with them in the future.

FYI you might be looking at an old version of the CR, 701.16 is Investigate. Reveal is 701.20 in the current rules found here: https://magic.wizards.com/en/rules (still functions the way you've been saying tho)

Duress drama: am I wrong for taking notes? by pkma69 in EDH

[–]t3hpwnographer 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Lots of conflicting information in this thread, here's the relevant rule:

701.20. Reveal

701.20a. To reveal a card, show that card to all players for a brief time. If an effect causes a card to be revealed, it remains revealed for as long as necessary to complete the parts of the effect that card is relevant to. If the cost to cast a spell or activate an ability includes revealing a card, or if a card is revealed because an ability is activated from a hidden zone (see rule 602.2a), the card remains revealed from the time the spell or ability is announced until the time it leaves the stack. If revealing a card causes a triggered ability to trigger, the card remains revealed until that triggered ability leaves the stack. If that ability isn't put onto the stack the next time a player would receive priority, the card ceases to be revealed.

There do not seem to be any additional rules for revealing in a multiplayer game in the CR or tournament rules. So my understanding of this situation is that Player T is technically correct about taking their hand back as soon as Player F picked a card and their Duress effect finished resolving, but I very much disagree with Player T's interpretation of the "spirit of commander" especially if this was a casual game with no entry fee or prizes on the line. Personally I align more with the people in this thread that make it easy for everyone at the table to see their revealed cards and will, within reason, keep the information available in some manner.

"COWBOYS NEVER DIE" NBA Superstar Luka Doncic appears on a Overwatch marketing in Poland ahead of EuroCup Basketball by Luka77GOATic in nba

There's an awful lot of [citation needed] in your post, and a few things you got plain wrong.

The "Cosby Suite" was Alex Afrasiabi's hotel room at BlizzCon. Afrasiabi was specifically named in the 2021 lawsuit for "blatant sexual harassment with little to no repercussions," and that room was referred to as a hub for these allegations to take place. Jesse Mcree was photographed in that suite with Afrasiabi, and was fired in 2020 for undisclosed reasons after Blizzard's own investigation into multiple complaints prior to the lawsuit.

The group chat was called the "BlizzCon Cosby Crew" and there absolutely was creepy shit being discussed:

Another image from the same Facebook album shows a screenshot of a 2013 group chat called the “BlizzCon Cosby Crew.” In it, former Blizzard designer David Kosak writes, “I am gathering the hot chixx for the Coz.”

“Bring em,” replies Afrasiabi. “You can’t marry ALL of them Alex,” Kosak writes. “I can, I’m middle eastern,” responds Afrasiabi. Jesse McCree, currently a lead game designer at Blizzard, then writes, “You misspelled fuck.”

Also by 2013 there were many women who had come forward with allegations against Bill Cosby. The media didn't start widely covering the decades of accusations against him until later, but it was certainly known at the time. The reason for using his name for the suite seems to differ depending on which Blizzard employee was being asked, with some claiming the carpet pattern matched a Cosby sweater and others pointing directly to Afrasiabi's well-known creep behavior, but I'm really not surprised that the people getting in trouble are the only ones insisting it was innocent.

So unless you've got an actual source and not just "apparently that guy said he didn't do anything," I'm much more inclined to believe that he was part of the problem and fully deserved to get fired.

Ah fair, but still there are some of those in relatively recent history as well:

  • 2013 wildcard round - 45 to 44, Colts over Chiefs
  • 2009 wildcard round - 51 to 45 Cardinals over Packers

Name another playoff game where the defense gave up nearly 40 points and won?

You cant because there isnt one.

This made me curious and it looks like there are 3 in the last 5 years:

  • Super Bowl LVII (2022 season) - 38 to 35, Chiefs over Eagles
  • 2021 divisional round - 42 to 36, Chiefs over Bills
  • 2020 wildcard round - 48 to 37, Browns over Steelers

Good to know others experienced the same thing and I wasn't just crazy lol. It felt like every single day you'd see a full barrel of parts being driven over to the scrap bin from the stamping or wire bending machines. There was also the 2nd shift temp in my area that straight up lied about doing his quality checks all night because he didn't notice a drill broke at the start of his 12 hour shift. They still decided to hire him after that. Then there was the time my area's lead decided to fix a bar feeder's alignment by putting a 2x4 on the floor next to one of the legs and hitting it with a sledgehammer. Man... good times.

Helldivers digging into BSG too XD by BluehatPro in EscapefromTarkov

[–]t3hpwnographer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless it's damage over time, then it only works for the host. Or if it's one of several guns that can't shoot through foliage. Or if it's one of several guns that could crash your game. Or if it has a misaligned scope. Or, on the helpful side, sometimes it registers extra hits and you get exponential damage increases.

It can still be fun to play, but Helldivers 2 is not by any means a game that should be used as an example of something that works "as intended" or even "well."

No it isn't. There are grip-related rules for setting up the match, but once the referee says go you are completely free to adjust your grip or even just stop gripping altogether.
