    This is a fascinating question. Is the stock market inherently unpredictable or is it so complex as to be practically unpredictable? The model I am observing unfold is probabilities. There is a level of certainty once the data lines up, but it will never be 100%. The real question I am...

    Plausable. I used existing public AI models to create a market tops and bottoms predictor algorithm in a google spreadsheet. In testing it nailed every top and bottom over the last 5 years. I applied it in practice on April 8th and hit the bottom perfectly. Time in the market beats timing of...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    THJ's equitable arguments are strong — Daybreak's own executives publicly encouraged emulators for decades, calling them "number one fans." Courts are reluctant to grant injunctions that would effectively reverse 20+ years of established industry practice. The injunction request is likely to...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    It essentially boils down to: Can you abandon IP rights through decades of acquiescence? If it goes to trial - THJ likely wins. I predict a settlement and not a blowout win for either side.

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    Clearly you haven't worked in an environment like this. What you suggest would never even cross their minds. Think more like a panicked animal in a trap as it gnaws its own leg off. And if the animal could somehow deflect the predators attention elsewhere to extend its life just a few more...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    Again, stop thinking rationally - this isn't about revenue, it's corporate theater. They're clutching at legal action because it looks decisive to non-gaming investors who don't understand the ecosystem. Going after "IP infringement" sounds like protecting valuable assets, when it's really just...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    You are thinking far too logically and like a gamer. If you want to understand Daybreak - you need to think more like a lawyer or accountant. They stopped thinking about the players and the future of the game a long time ago and anyone that worked there that had pride in the game either left in...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    Zero chance they take the Quarm route. The THJ dev's have already indicated interest in pursuing other game development ideas if this falls apart which at this point I think is the most likely outcome. Much greater chance THJ shuts down for good and they go do something else. DB continues to...

    If they had any intentions of doing this, they would have done it years ago. Instead they clutch their pearls and feed the whales while completely forgetting what the game is even about.

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    On what grounds? Grok says THJ will lose. But I agree with the larger sentiment that Daybreak likely loses no matter what unless they figure out a way to embrace the opportunity right in front of them. But I am certain they wont.

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    The debate over license is irrelevant—Daybreak’s IP rights are clear, and they’ll likely win in court. No one seriously expects otherwise. What’s undeniable, and Daybreak should recognize, is that The Heroes’ Journey is by far the most popular version of EverQuest, and it isn't even close. This...

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    THJ is the best thing to happen to Everquest in the last 10+ years. Daybreak is in a death spiral and everyone that has paid any attention, knows it. As a fan of the game and the genre - I want to see innovation resurge to restore life to my favorite game. TBH I had given up much hope of...

    The Heroes Journey (Multiclass EQemu Progression Server)

    If they intended to do that - they would have done it without upsetting the community by threatening the most popular server in recent memory. The cost to them will be real. They already fucked up. Lets hope they come to their senses. Again, not expecting it.

    The Heroes Journey (Multiclass EQemu Progression Server)

    I cancelled my daybreak accounts. Its the least I can do. If nothing else - I want them to stop sucking so much. The crux of all of this is multi boxing imo. Whales with multiple accounts represents a large portion of their revenue and I think that model is shit.

    Worse, they likely blame the lack of success on THJ rather than their stupid TLP ruleset.

    The Heroes Journey (Multiclass EQemu Progression Server)

    Multiclassing: Players can combine three classes (e.g., Necromancer/Paladin/Druid or Warrior/Cleric/Enchanter), accessing all spells, abilities, and AAs from each. With 560 possible combinations, this allows creative, powerful builds like a "holy blender" (Warrior/Paladin/Rogue) or pet-heavy...

    The Heroes Journey (Multiclass EQemu Progression Server)

    The community could rally for THJ, but Daybreak’s track record shows they value IP control over fan support. It’s likely a lost cause.

    Daybreak could be rich if they were not so greedy (and lazy). I hope they lose it all and the community wins.

    The Heroes Journey (Multiclass EQemu Progression Server)

    I thought this as well - but I reconsidered. The way they are implementing this works for a single server. Think of SF and HC as leagues - similar to POE. Other than chat - you cant interact between these leagues. HC has its own economy and SF is SF. I expect SF guilds that work together -...

    Really enjoying this server and the unique take on the game. It has rekindled my love for a game I have played most of my life. I really didnt think this level of re-invention was possible. Kudos to the team for bringing this to vision to life. If you are on the edge of trying this one - do...

    Its lag. It's not a new behavior but it is more exaggerated now. The market is held up largely by big tech and these companies are doing quite well despite everything. Even during Covid they thrived. They are so large that even if the remainder of the market was falling, we would still go up...

    The only thing I understand is that gold goes up in economic uncertainty. It's a data point. But personally, I don't understand the rationale. If we experience a collapse at that scale - who is going to accept gold as tender? Even the bullion experts have trouble sometimes identifying fake gold...

    I Was Wrong About Bitcoin. I bought Bitcoin when it was in the single-dollar digits, back when wallets lived on clunky hard drives. Technically, I still own it, but good luck finding that wallet file—pre-online exchange days were a mess. I rode the early hype, but even then I felt it had long...

    In volatile markets, sitting on cash isn’t a strategy—capital must be deployed somewhere, even in uncertain times. Crypto? Not exactly stable historically. Could evaporate at any time and IMO will go the way of tulip bulbs. Gold? Many might agree and in an unstable market many will choose...

    I get the AGI appeal. But IMO the next target is inserting AI into robotics to do meaningful tasks. This will be the next killer appliance. OK maybe killer is a poor choice of words here.
