    The castles in AA are a good instance of how large goals make large groups of people. Because the content is only available to large groups of people it's a motivating factor for people to gravitate together. The stone gathering was an extreme example of scarcity because you had some 800 people...

    The reason why small events can work is that if a large guild sends 50 people to collect a resource intended for 5 people, each person is generating 10% of the wealth they otherwise could. As the scarcity of the resource increases, the average number of players needed to collect the resource...

    Well then come play with us in PRX in Crowfall and manage that bullshit! Anytime you add a logistical burden it helps guilds like PRX that do organization really well. The reason I'm so against it is because I know what it's like to organize that stuff in many games and know that we'll organize...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Good thing about doing timed coding tests at home is you can weed out people without wasting your employees time. Deathwing, is the answer to your question, "instantiates three elements of that class on the heap, calls their constructor, then deletes the three instances?"

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Look, Antarius, I know you mean well but to most people you and SJWs are two sides of the same coin. Each spouting off excessive and pointed bullshit to try and prove a larger point about gender injustice. There's no need to be so beholden to women that your life is driven by your need to argue...

    [Manga] Naruto (warning: spoilers up to current chapter)

    Yes. But it took like, 4 years for Naruto to not be terrible compared to the Third or Orochimaru. They don't really have that luxury.

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    So were the salt flats they had the remnants of a sea that was 'evaporated' in some way during the nuclear attack? Wouldn't they basically run into a massive ravine once they left the coast? Would they eventually find water? Would it be salty or would a small salt-ocean create a local...

    Speed Reading - It's Mostly Bullshit (Or Is It?)

    Speed reading isn't bullshit, but a lot of the techniques used to maximize your WPM result in a lower comprehension rate. Chunking and removing vocalization is really important.

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    lol, thanks for doing the math on that. There's so many ways that '160' days is ridiculous whether it's amount of gas, amount of water, how much shit will break down in 160 days etc. It felt like they pulled a number out of their ass that made no sense.

    Maybe I don't want equip loss on death because as a leader of a very organized guild I don't want to deal with that bullshit. I don't want to have people delegated to organize armories. I don't want to deal with people being lazy and unprepared and showing up naked and useless. I don't want to...

    Without the bungee and guitar you're just going to look like a dude in a red jump suit with a retarded mask you take off 15m into the party.

    I'd rather have the books finished too, but after the last few seasons and last few books.... the show is better than the books.

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    Saw it, loved it, will probably see it again this weekend. One of the top action films of all time! I really appreciated the lack of CGI and the guitar dude. The strong female lead juxtaposed to the slave-wives was also great. I loved that they had a kinship between Hardy and Theron without...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I don't disagree with anything he says. GRRM makes no effort to portray black characters as strong and heroic. The closest you could come up with is Greyworm, but he's just an indentured servant. You could argue that nearly all Game of Thrones characters are of less integrity than Greyworm and...

    As we speak I'm working on conversion of academic matlab code to C++. And everything you say is true. I'm familiar with this problem. Someone leaves a pile of code that works but nobody understands the code well enough to properly maintain it and it's so bad that anyone new to it would need to...

    No. It's a pretty meaningless distinction. Maybe you could say that Sony's morpheus 'blocks' porn because the PS4 might not be compatible with their version of porn.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    this one: Game Of Thrones Is Gross, Exploitative, And Totally Out Of Ideas Is especially out of touch. Their argument is that the rape scene added nothing and the show was under no obligation to include it because Sansa wasn't there in the books. It'd at least have more credibility if it...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    In a fiction I think the whip is there to be a long range weapon that can grab people and possibly make them tell the truth. We've also been hit and hit people in the ass with makeshift whips from towels, so we all know how frightening they can be, where as few of us have been casually run...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yes. Especially since Stoneheart and Manderley got cut. People are hoping she'll fill that role. I've been hoping that ever since Petyr Baelish took her under his wing, and they've been hyping it by showing her being guided by him. But I feel like if it was going to happen it would've already...

    Totally disagree. If you can only accrue wealth by going away from your keep/city/house, collecting some resource somehow, then transporting it back to a crafter/bank/merchant/resource sink, and during transportation/collection that resource can be taken then you have a good PvP system without...

    I think everything will depend on how alpha goes. They could come up with some really enjoyable mechanics that favor the dregs over factional pvp. I don't even know what the difference between dregs and guild-level campaigns are. If you're not in a guild you should be in the factional campaigns...
