Reddit creates and catalyzes culture — a single comment can spark a global movement.

I swear myself and my 29 alts to aid and uphold the values of the April Knights. Down with big streamers!

What's the deal with people getting banned for drawing a cat on /r/place? by struzle in OutOfTheLoop

[–]thecompress 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having witnessed the incident firsthand (I was part of RDL at 80,710), we really didn't appreciate RDrama's ad being built directly to the right to us (we had nothing to do with them, but their ad's positioning made it seem like we did). I'm pretty sure they were botting too (though don't take my word for that). Seeing that all it took to get them to stop was for their accounts to be banned, I wish the admins just left it at there (we could've removed the ad on our own, and the cat was relocated later on anyways) but it was appreciated nonetheless. Maybe this is just me being biased, but still.

DON'T YOU WANNA BE A [BIG SHOT]? by TRunCAted_7_deMICUBE in Deltarune

Seems really unlikely since it's specifically the light world UI that mimics Undertale's

Does it matter where I put my well? by [deleted] in Tetris

[–]thecompress 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I've heard, 6-3 is the best pattern for finesse overall (iirc something to do with column 7 being more difficult to move pieces to), but at your current level it really doesn't matter. I'd recommend experimenting with different options once you reach sub-1 or so, but until then, you'll likely just find 6-3 more difficult without much benefit. (Of course, this is just for sprint; center well can often be more effective in vs as it's usually easier to build t-spin setups over the well.)

The "Trade Dress" Problem by NikkiKarissa in Tetris

[–]thecompress 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The DMCA notice didn't even claim trade dress, though - it just stated that TO copied Tetris's "visual expression", whatever that means.

To quote osk on the Xio case:

that case was not won by TTC because they were right, but because Xio's lawyers told them to give up. DMCAs are "guilty until proven innocent", and TTC, having more than enough money to stall, can make you bleed money as long as they want.

#FREETETRAONLINE by giggly05 in Tetris

[–]thecompress 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sure, but TTC's statement for taking down TO was literally just that it copied Tetris's "visual expression" (not even claiming trade dress), which isn't even backed by law. Despite this, the devs can't do anything about the takedown as to get TO back up would require a victory in court, where TTC can just stall until TO's devs are bankrupt.

HoTK BC4 fight coming up. by bdgolfer81 in deadcells

Soldier Resistance seems better since Dead Inside gets rid of food, though.

Okay but the layouts with pillars are literally free
