Many lower tier tournaments have brackets divided into more adjacent ELO categories. Huggieg just recently announced a Mixed Game Mode tourney where groups will be divided by ELO. You'd likely end up in the same group as me with 1150 ELO, that is, if I decide to want to do another tourney myself...
So what really frustrates me about this patch is that the Devs seem to understand exactly how big of a bonus 50% Bonus Damage is, but they nerf a civ that is, throughout all ELOs, significantly behind the Gurjaras and usually around 50% winrate, significantly more than the Gurjaras themselves...
Didn't he try to qualify for RBW5? I believe that was after he took that job, so I don't think that is the case.
But he would have to qualify first anyways, which, no offense to him, is not very likely in either game.
I was about to write pretty much the same things (except I don't play it, the beta put me off too much).
I hear all the time that the game improved a lot, and that there are good sets. And maybe I just watch the wrong matches, but to me, it is the exact same game, the exact same feeling as I...
I do come across this some of the times, but I have far more experience with the opposite. I try to be talkative and friendly during my games, especially when I make mistakes and laugh about them myself, and it usually sparks conversations during, but especially after the game. Unless there's an...
I've explained this before, it's the gambler's fallacy.
If you make a bet, and lose, you are presented with two choices:
1. Cut your losses and move on
2. Double down
I would not be surprised, if the trend continues, if the next AoE4 Tournament will have a 250k Prize Pool because Microsoft is...
Actually, yes.
And I've driven a Ferrari, though briefly. It's great for cruising, tons of gimmicks and very smooth, but are Hot Hatch cars if you drive them smoothly, that are 10-20% of the price. And arguably, they can be much more fun to drive, AND you can drive them on snow, which you...
If quality, or even popularity, were to define an AAA game, stuff like Stardew Valley or Undertale would qualify.
I think we're good just keeping that tag to the amount of marketing that goes into a game, which is directly reflecting the game's overall budget.
AoE4 is an AAA Game (even 80.- here), that price doesn't come out of nowhere, the amount of work hours that went into it must translate directly into it.
It's just that for that amount, I've seen a handful of people doing a better job and selling their game for 20.-. That's even more...
Next up, dessert for my Birthday tomorrow, and my own original recipe from scratch, which I constantly improve by trial and error.
Coconut-Hazlenut Honeycake
(don't mind the remnants of the pizza spices, I don't have a wire rack to let it cool and glaze it)
150g Butter
3 Eggs
75g brown sugar...
Let me revive this one.
We'll start with my in-game namesake, Hot Pepper Pizza
Add 2:1 ratio wheat flour and room temp water, with 1tsp dry yeast dissolved in it for 10 minutes. As you bring it together, add 1tbsp Olive Oil. Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes, then place in a bowl and...
That's called confirmation bias, and yes, bringing up statistics that confirm ones position can be seen as such.
Thing is: There is not a single statistic speaking to the opposite. It's hard to change your position if you don't get any arguments against it.
This discussion started out with a...
What keeps me grounded and focussed on having fun is just being a bit talkative.
Say, I lose a Vil to a boar? I laugh about it in chat. Always gets a reaction back and helps see the guy on the other side. Hole in my wall? A FFS 11. I don't like his civ? Tell him about it, heck, my Mayans...
So continuing at the steady 20% decline each week, which has been the constant pretty much since week 1. That means ~18k in a week, and a drop below 10k in a month.
