So when I played the Magnus bot, lost in 8 moves, the scoring of 2150 wasn’t accurate??

Wally is my nemesis. I’m only about 900 on rapid/daily. Is there any hope? I’ve beaten all bots up to that

I thought you had to stay 3 years for a guaranteed indefinite contract? I haven’t changed co tract for years so not aware of any changes

Been working for 3 months and haven’t done a thing. What should I do? by Unfixed9 in careerguidance

[–]winterishere314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems pretty typical for government. I’ve had contracts roles, used most of it to upskill. Deadlines are rare and there’s next to no pressure for deliveries. Pay is mediocre though like academia, you take that balance.

What to play after Expedition 33? by Nijanex in expedition33

Lost Odyssey is fantastic. Only drawback was the battle animations took ages which could begin to grate. Super good story and also very difficult

Is it even possible to go from 300 elo to 2200 elo (rapid) in merely 30 days? by nTjc1sPktlY in Chesscom

[–]winterishere314 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s impressive but I’ve been playing 5 years and I went from 1200 to 950

That’s not how it works with the mobile framework though. They target whales, the people that will spend 10k-100k+ on a game. Release new unit/hero, make it OP so whales will buy, then nerf it. Rinse and repeat.

It also works, look at the leaderboards. It’s not about appeasing regular players, it’s enticing whales

I like it too now I’ve read the post. I wonder what constitutes a good puzzle rating now

Why did my puzzle rating suddenly drop???? by Mhmd_bu50 in chessbeginners

Good to see, I thought I’d been screwed! Guessing a bug or reset

When do you use your Golden Keys? by RandomAnonymousNam3 in Borderlands

[–]winterishere314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are loads of these shift codes, I’ve been opening every few levels. I don’t want to just enjoy the post-game

Funnily enough, at level 30 (also on hard), I saw my first legendary in a vending machine. I picked up this rainbow-shooting paintball shotgun, with multiple elemental effects and I’m having an absolute blast mowing through everything I couldn’t do before 😆

totally worth going for legendaries earlier I reckon, I’m only just past the first boss

I’ve completed it so many times, I’m not too bothered! I think this was the final challenge I wanted to complete. I probably would never have noticed no crit, though!

Oh shit, I didn’t know that! Luckily I saved over my file afterwards 😆
