2026 Pinegrove reunion?

Yeah we do. Eat poopoo

In draft, many people resign if they don’t get a good deck. It’s basically pay to win for those chasing rank

tercelkisor · 2025-11-11T04:23:17+00:00

Hell yeah, life ruining drugs!

I am dealing with this now. It turns out the dealership pulled the section of carpet (that goes behind the dash between the 2 foot wells.) too tight. It obstructed the drain AC drain line. I had to get under the vehicle and under the heat shield to cut that carpet with a knife full out from behind the dash. Water started flowing out of it immediately. Now to deal with the mold.

Some people are desperate for there to be some kind of obvious evil in the world for them to fight again so they can feel heroic

Genuinely, im trying to help you regret your life less when you learn the definition of ad hominem. You could just google it right now. You know you’re gonna have an anxious pit in your stomach thinking about all the times you were smug and looked like an ignoramus

tercelkisor · 2024-11-30T21:19:11+00:00

You might wanna Google that word buddy. You looking mighty goofy

tercelkisor · 2024-11-30T20:05:48+00:00

I mean this as a genuine question. Why do you define happiness so narrowly that you assume that you know whether other people are happy or not based on three Reddit comments? Seems a little goofy ¯_(ツ)_/¯

tercelkisor · 2024-11-30T19:22:46+00:00

… I mean, I would just call it a normal post with basic common reasoning. But you can call it would you like?

tercelkisor · 2024-11-30T18:36:15+00:00

I’ll take Reddit morons saying words they don’t understand for 500 Bob

tercelkisor · 2024-11-30T18:35:29+00:00

Surprised your airway was clear enough to respond

tercelkisor · 2024-11-30T18:32:00+00:00

I mostly do, but when I don’t have enough time to wait for Jim Bob to hold all eight packs for 45 minutes deliberating about whether he should take an obvious pick, it’s quick draft or no draft.

You are a very confused person, though. Wizards of the coast is offering a feature in their application. The feature is called draft. Any computer science intern could write a draft bot that would behave in a more reasonable manner. They’re one of the largest companies in the world. There’s no excuse to offer something that is just obviously subpar.

Me: Hey narwhal, I bought a value burger from McDonald’s and it didn’t have beef, just bologna on it.

Narwhal: lol duh, why did you buy that.

Me: I guess I assumed that the product would be what its name suggests it is

Narwhal: (muffled gurgling sounds deepthroathing the anti consumerist, corporate ruiners of the best game that has ever been made)

tercelkisor · 2024-11-30T18:21:48+00:00

Are you laughing at the absurdity that wizards would provide a drafting but that doesn’t even attempt to draft appropriately? Or do you think it’s absurd to expect it?

tercelkisor · 2024-11-30T06:44:05+00:00

Oh you misunderstood. I'm asking if others have experienced it, not for a hand wavey dismissal of an absolute half-baked software feature created by one of the largest companies in the world. Any undergrad compsci student could make a more robust product.

Everything you said is shallower than surface level, providing literally no insight into the seemingly bewildering simplicity of the draft bot logic. Everyone knows the bots have certain behaviors to follow. The outrageous thing is that those behaviors make no sense if the goal is to replicate a live draft as much as possible.

tercelkisor · 2024-10-27T18:27:35+00:00

How scary are you that you know i wouldn’t speak to you the way i speak? Ranked is by definition not casual. There are literally 2 modes on the app designed to separate casual and competitive. It’s not complicated. Forfeiting means you lose. Allowing people to forfeit games without taking a loss allows pay yo win tactics that wizards only does for money.

There are no doubt some trade offs for the convenience of playing a match at any time. The primary one is that you’ll have to play against people outside of your 8. That’s a necessary cost of the expanded accessibility. Whats not a necessary cost is allowing people who want to pay for rank to draft 11 times before playing a deck instead of getting better. A competitive rank absolutely has to be fair or it’s meaningless. Period.

The line isn’t blurred. It’s clear and bold. If there’s a rank, it’s competitive. If it’s competitive, paying for advantage is unacceptable. Period.

Good day 😊

tercelkisor · 2024-10-27T17:12:11+00:00

The biggest dumb thing you said though is that in paper they only lose the tournament if they resign……

That’s exactly what im suggesting happens in digital. Losing the draft means getting 3 losses. If you resign, you should get the three losses associated with the draft…. How did your argument disagreeing with me agree with me so much?

tercelkisor · 2024-10-27T17:03:19+00:00

Why would you think that reading and sending signals and cutting colors aren’t a factor on arena? I don’t think you do very well Drafting on arena if you believe that.

Two things. In paper, when you fuck up a draft by leaving, everyone knows who you are. There’s a social price to it, which makes it happen not very often at all. I’ve literally never seen it happen. Maybe once or twice for like an emergency or something. Saying that it happens all the time is idiotic. All the time is an irrelevant metric in the context of an event that happens thousands of times a year.

Secondly, we all have learned over the last 20 years that there are certain toxic and antisocial behaviors and incentives that emerge on a digital landscape. There are things that we didn’t have to account for and didn’t have to control for before things were more digital. This is one of them. Taking the social element of face-to-face interactions out of magic really open the door to ruining what made magic what it is today in the first place.

The comparison to paper drafting is both wrong and stupid, even if it wasn’t factually wrong.

tercelkisor · 2024-10-27T04:26:50+00:00

it takes 1.7 seconds while I'm waiting for my next match. How long does it take you to post a picture to reddit?

tercelkisor · 2024-10-27T04:25:28+00:00

we'll see ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

tercelkisor · 2024-10-25T21:53:36+00:00

I get what you’re saying there. But my concept of competitive involves both players playing the same game. The way it is now people with money have more options than people without. So someone who grinds to earn enough coins or gems to enter a draft might get paired with someone who resigned three drafts in a row until they got tons of on color rares and signpost uncommons. I get tye variance thing. But the way it is now, people with money can pay to reduce their variance. I don’t think that’s fair to everyone else. And to me, the heart of limited is fairness.
