    I thought this was a joke until the deer carcass. But apparently some asshole used a mountain howitzer for deer hunting.

    The carcass is a 'shop. At least, the "wounds" are. They're just clone stamps of a single wound. They all have the same two-spot flash reflection, and the same two darker pink bumps on the lower right.

    Now I am less angry at the world.

    btw bc:
    LaBeouf was participating in a video art project called #Introductions for Central Saint Martins, a London arts college.

    Each student in the class was directed to write a short script for the actor to perform on camera in front of a greenscreen. According to the Guardian, this was the assignment:

    “Submit a piece of text lasting up to 30 seconds or no more than 100 words. This can be as poetic, abstract or literal as you like — with the emphasis on expressing the feeling and tone of the work being introduced.”

    LaBeouf wound up performing 36 of the pieces in a single day in a Los Angeles greenscreen studio. The various segments involve him wearing a motorcycle helmet, using a British accent, and standing on his head.

    in case u wondering why

    Im so happy right now

    Double hilariously I finished my plat promo series with the same champ and position - Jungle Warwick - as he complained of the time before

    "OMG NO GANK TIL 330"

    Yeah fuck you, try not not to feed til then

    Please tell me you @ posted the fuck out of them.
    But yeah, MOBAs as a genre of game where you're frequently locked into a game for at least 30min that is at a fail-state at the 5min mark due to the actions of one out of the five teammates

    Not good

    Pretty much. I've said before that the salt isn't surprising considering the game mechanics are designed to make people assholes. You can often point to a specific person who ruined the entire match due to doing something they should have known not to do, which you specifically asked them not to do, and which will make the next half hour totally miserable. GG no re.

    HOTS fixes a lot of that by reducing the benefit for early kills, eliminating single lane failure states, and eliminating multiplicative carry scaling though. :heartbeat:

    You can try backing up and restoring it but if it keeps doing that, it's kicked the bucket. If it's new (less than 1 year) or under applecare, it'll be painless to replace. If not, prepare your $600 and get in line.

    it creates this atmosphere of

    literally strapping them over a wooden horse and setting phasers to butthole if i am not there when a teamfight could break out at any moment

    @Bowen wait are you making a game, and like in the stage where you're really just thinking about what kind of game to create?

    We're doing a lot of back end stuff at the moment.

    You'd be surprised at just how much of a game can be recycled, even between different genres.

    We have an idea of what we want to do, but, we'll see.

    You're going about this the wrong way. If they get banned, they'll just make another account and the cycle will continue.

    No, you must destroy their very desire to play to begin with.

    When they begin playing, pull up a chair beside them and watch intently. Make sure that you repress any knowledge you may have about the game; refer to champions in pedestrian terms ("the woman with the sword, the small squirrelly one") while assigning bizarre levels of importance to more banal aspects (urge them to save the cannon minions so they can hurt the buildings, or to hide in the bushes so they can't be seen). Regularly ask how they win the game, and ask how they're doing. Remain supportive, but in an ignorant manner; cheer whenever they recall or when a teammate steals their kill. Once you get to know a few characters, try and recommend they play ones that you like for superficial reasons ("the goat lady has nice hair"). Occasionally say "isn't this a bit violent" in a disapproving tone.

    Also, abuse psychological tactics. Innocently provide them with rewards (chocolate perhaps) whenever they stop playing, or turn the thermostat down whenever they start.

    A friend of mine actually saw the LoL community manager person talk at a psych conference about how they're trying to make things less asshole-inducing. It's interesting stuff! Obviously MOBAs are a compelling format, but also one that really drives people to frustration.
