One thing is that Hera is so much more fun to hate on than the Viper. I remember hearing the Viper, probably on one of @MaSmOrRa's podcasts, say that streaming taught him a lot about handling hate. That some people were going to say cruel, unfair, and hateful things in the chat, and there was...
When I was doing my podcast, one of the biggest pains was tracking down tournament registration opportunities and deadlines. With the new management here, I thought of asking if maybe they could collate the information. Then I thought, why not just do it myself? I could even give myself some AWS...
This is the typical WEIRD comment that is expected in an English-language bulletin board. The assumption of universalist values because the majority of people in the cosmopolitan internet space share them. The conversation began with a Turkish player that I believe is sincere and is not merely...
I think the distinction, which is why I find the problem interesting, is how much due diligence a player has towards keeping his or her strategy secret.
I don't think anyone would deny that what you suggest, or that watching T90 stream the match, would be considered cheating. But, to go back to...
How about another metaphor?
Let's say you are throwing a party and issue a general invitation to the neighborhood. You have a beef with your neighbor, Bob, and tell him he can't come. He comes anyway and drinks your beer. Is he stealing?
I think you can issue a general invitation ("Hey...
Dude, the straw man argument is Myth's basic strategy. In fact, in some ways he is the Hoang of aoezone. His strategy is annoying and hard to counter, and learning to counter it doesn't help in civilized debate, but it is galling to just say gg and move on.
Straw man much?
I said many players, but am accused of insisting that what I articulated is a universal belief. I said the way Hoang plays, and I am somehow against laming, as if that were the primary attribute of Hoang's style. I say sympathy mostly sides with The Dragonstar, and I am accused...
The logic is correct; the assumption is false. It would be cheating to look at someone's live stream while playing poker, at least at the informal games I have played. The moral equivalent is to decide that because a player at the table is showing a friend (who is not playing) his or her hand...
This is where I think there is some disagreement with the feelings of many players and why they are more sympathetic to The Dragonstar in this situation. The attitude of GLHF is important to maintaining a healthy scene, and Hoang's attitude is sharply in opposition to it. Because of this, there...
