It's not eligible, cutoff is 31/may. Probably up for next year though.

The dude seems kind of cranky, but factually pretty much. There's more mission types beyond where he got to, so the limited variety is technically incorrect, but you need far more of them so it's kind of a wash.

In fairness, the base building part becomes vastly more important as the difficulty increases, particularly for those people who don't cough up real cash. The walls and traps also become proportionally much stronger with the various skill tree upgrades.

What's the point of having a huge wallet if you can't take it out of your pants and slap peasants in the face with it ? ;p

You are in the starter area, and you already bought a minimum of $60 worth of boxes - did you think they were just giving out those llamas to everyone ? ;p All high tier schematics and heroes are loot boxes only. The only way to get loot boxes is with premium currency. The only two ways to...

Yeah, this. It's not "really" gambling because you can't actually win. The monetary value of virtual goods is a bit of a sticky problem for the legal system currently, exacerbated by bitcoin and it's like.

That's an ironic typo right there - it's true, it's not play to win ;p People are generally pointlessly argumentative about 'pay to win' as a term, with some people even a giant flashing button that literally says 'Insert credit card details and win the game ! Comes with free exclusive victory...

It has the greediest to the cash grubbing P2W transaction model ( buy box, it might have something good in it, but probably not, why not buy 10 of them? surely you'll get something good ) and, as far as I can see, all the top gear/heros/schematics/followers are exclusive to pay to win boxes...

I think it's sort of poking fun at the original fate for basically just going for wilful blindness on King Arthur as a chick. Seriously, no-one even notices or mentions it. I'm not sure about the series though, the story and dialogue seem to be complete nonsense, although that may just be the...

I found it a bit eh. I liked it, but found the comedy/serious balance a bit too far to comedy for my liking. Actions had pretty much no consequences, the one person that died was solely for comedic value (that was pretty funny though I admit) Your mileage may vary. Keaton owned his role...

I would just like to offer two hearty middle fingers to the Slaughtergears nerf. RIP, you will be missed.

I'm pretty sure it's the Peter principle at work - Moffat was a fantastic writer, but got promoted beyond his competence when he got showrunner as well.

That's some gross exaggeration right there. It wasn't that bad - it had nice sets, decent action, and the plot wasn't complete nonsense. I agree that Russell Crowe was absolutely terrible though. I thought that they overexplained stuff as well - I prefer a bit of ambiguity in motivations...

Lynch clearly has dark powers, given he got Deborah Ann Woll to get her tits out after she held out as the only clothed woman for 7 years of true blood.

All Systems Red - Martha Wells - Story from the point of view of the self-named 'Murderbot', an AI security unit that has secretly managed to hack control of it's control systems and gain independence. It spends most of it's time watching TV and hoping the humans will leave it alone, a plan...

For my part, I don't think it needs deep analysis, it just isn't funny.

That makes sense, they worked well together in f8 and Statham pretty much stole the show for the action scenes - the plane sequence was head and shoulders over any of the rest of the fights, and the second best was the prison break, also mostly for Statham ;p Movie was fun - the plot is more...

Meh, I thought it was good, if not up to the standard of the first one. My main complaint was it felt overproduced, rather than the quirkiness of the first one - kind of like the new star wars movie - at every point they go with the least risk option, which makes it disappointingly predictable.

What? Of course they are, that's literally the core of how they work.

I was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't great or anything, but the new chick was pretty funny.

Sci-fi humor isn't all that common. Um, Redshirts by Scalzi and Wilful Child by Steven Erikson spring to mind. Can't really think of anything else offhand. Looking at Calibre tags in my library, some people have some very strange ideas about what humor is - 'We Are Legion ( We are Bob )' has...

Pfft, like she didn't know that to start with, she'd be a pretty shitty psychiatrist if she didn't.

I think last episode was a new low in stupidly manufactured drama. Not wearing an engagement ring ? Seriously, that was just utterly weak sauce.

Why would that tilt you ? It's so they are upright when under thrust.

I think it was deliberately confusing, but my take was that Bobbie told her ship they were under attack just as it started going over the orbital mirror. The ship captain opens fire on the mirror to destroy it so he can see what's going on on the ground, and then the UN ships fire on him because...

Wait, is there some meta-humor going on here that went over my head, or did John Oliver just unironically run a piece on interesting news stories not getting any coverage because the media is too busy bashing Trump ?

Quentin is a fucking idiot, nothing new here ;p Margot gets all the best lines. 'Your *actual* kingdom is *actually* at stake' ;p

That's a curious choice, aluriel is waaaaaay harder than krosus.

They mention that due to the tech they can only go back as far as the last person they sent. That means the present time is always happening in a fixed order and not being revised. There's actually reasonably good indications that what the present timeline is getting fucked up by people from...

Fuck that ending. Double salt for being so incredibly shit that there's zero chance of a second season to make it not worthless ;p

For mythic+ ? Sure they do - 1 min cooldown AOE stun is huge, and darkness is pretty handy. Ironically the mobility is mostly theoretical because it's all used on cooldown for the dps rotation.

The actress is 22, so that seems unlikely.

I like how sad and defeated MiB looks without his hat.

There's much simpler explanations - one, it makes it easy to program the hosts to not see them, two they are usually picking up hosts that have died violently and been lying around in the sun for hours. That shit is nasty, and you don't want it all over your clothes ;p

Well, if you overclock your CPU because it blackmailed you into it by threatening to reveal your illegal porn habits to your employer, then i figure you deserve what you get ;p

Those dudes aren't supposed to have any access, white guy managed to steal some admin credentials from somewhere to run his pimping operation - his ass is immediately fired if he gets found out, which is plausible reason for blackmail being effective. 'I might get fired' vs 'I might start the...

The dps to tank ratio for mythic+ is slanted the worst I've ever seen it in wow - whenever I search for pug dps I get 3-5 870s in under 30 seconds. It's an incredibly toxic environment for everyone who isn't super geared - it's hard not to take being rejected 40 times in a row personally - and...

It doesn't account for anything, it's just filtering all the normal parses for people who have that legendary equipped. You can infer whatever conclusion you wish from the results. For that particular comparison, I'd suggest that void bolt is used too often for the wrists to gain any...

No, not really. Warcraft logs actually lets you do parse breakdowns by equipped legendary, which gives you somewhat of a broader view of how good they are. In some cases the good ones are as much as 10% better than the awful ones, but overall they are a lot closer than you'd think. Warcraft...

DPS in randoms are so whipped they will agree to anything. Try it - vote kick a dps completely at random with a comment like 'Tank is an asshole', 90% chance they will agree and kick them. I've had people agree to 'Just say no to votekick'.
