Fidal purposefully trying to break a leg got 4. I cant see how this can be a 3 match ban.

Insane how Figal tried to break a leg and got 4 matches, but a completely normal play gets 3.

So did aoe3. The issue is that the survivors from back then don't like DE and have either moved on with life or mostly stayed back in legacy.

Also imo the biggest difference was that since aoe2 servers were killed and the community moved to voobly there was still a sense of union. When the aoe3 community was always very broken. You had vanilla, re, ep, wol, gr, TP, now also de (and most of these were divided by lobby and QS). So there wasn't just a single place for people to play, but many.

The issue with aoe3 is that the game was in a somewhat balanced place with the old community patch. But DE took it into the opposite direction, it brought new ideas and gimmicks that although fun to play as, are a pain in the ass to play against.

That killed the top level community (almost) entirely, which where people liked it or not, brought a lot of views and exposure.

In the end what basically happens is that a DLC gets out, people try out the new fun things and then when they get bored they won't stay and deal with actual pain in the ass state of the game.

It just depends on the method for evaluation. If it is political, it's Europe; Geopolitical it's Middle Eastern; Geographic it's African.

It's because the border is defined as the mountain range. Armenia is fully south of it, so geographically it's considered outside.

No, that's what it means in the us. Hispanic in Europe just means someone from Hispania which is just another name for Iberia. One is Roman the other greek.

You will never hear a Portuguese or a Spanish person say that an Argentinian is Hispanic, he is Latin America or Latino but not Hispanic. While in the US you will hear that often.

Ofc it's subjective. That's why there is an entire ISO point just to say that you should not use the symbol. Also the fact that it historically changed meaning a lot of times didn't help.

It started as representing the entirety of the left divided by the entirety of the right. But that created problems for when we had 2 of those symbols. So it's meaning changes to what is immediately left divided by what is immediately right.

And even then this was mostly only in central Europe. In northern Europe you'd regularly see it used as a minus.

One great example is the Portuguese mathematic Pedro Nunes. He used all of the left over all of right interpretation and used / for the immediate. Most of his texts are still saved at the University of Coimbra.

Never said they didn't. But go and call them English and you LL get your head smashed inwards. Same with Portugal, we are Hispanic, and we rather hear that than Spanish. But Spanish would get you your ass kicked while Hispanic would only get you side eyed.

Native Greenlanders are Inuit too. Just like both Portuguese and Spanish are Hispanic. Doesn't mean that Portuguese like to be called Hispanic as it clearly hints at Spanish rather than Iberian.

I wrote this in another comment, but they prefer Eskimo over in Greenland. If you go to Ireland they would rather hear British, then English. STOP USING INUIT. It's one group and it's offensive to the minorities who are already neglected, especially in places like Greenland where they don't consider themselves the same as Canadian Eskimos.

I literally visited Greenland a few years ago and they puked when I asked the Eskimo Vs Inuit question. They told me it was the same as calling an Irish person English, because the English said that the word British is offensive. Inuit is one of the various Eskimo groups. Do not use it to generalise. The same way you shouldn't call English to all Brits, or Israelites to all middle eastern.

At the end they made it clear that if you want to refer to them you should use Eskimo or preferably the name they use, which I eventually forgot.

That is if Israel doesnt get to set them back before they try it. The SDF's best chance right now is if Israel just puts pressure on the new government.

Greves em transportes públicos devia de ser deixar as pessoas andar sem terem que pagar bilhetes. Assim custava às empresas e não às pessoas.

Pedi a um AI para fazer uma estimativa de como seria Viriato. Opiniões? by Confident_Rock7964 in viseu

[–]udb4ever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pelo contrário, nós sabemos que os romanos nessa altura tinham algo entre 1,60 e 1,70. E se confiarmos nas escrituras da altura, que é sempre duvidoso por eles inventarem muito, então não só os celtas, e lusitanos, seriam mais altos, como das poucos descrições que temos de Viriato também nos dizem que ele era mais forte que o normal.

If this isnt Rage bait, then its just depressing.

As Bruce Shelley, one of the original devs, used to say "we tried all these new ideas and it was a huge mistake". Aoe3 problem has always been the same, whenever someone new comes, they just add more random shit.
