Update: I assembled the stack, went in, fragged out. It’s got some stupid OP modifiers and there’s probably a meta to counter them, but it didn’t matter- the short rounds and short games meant even if you’re getting stomped it doesn’t hurt too much (looking at you, counterstrike).

Definitely playing this one again.

Looks legit, I missed this one. I’ll try assembling a 5 stack of my friends to play (difficulty: nightmare)

Does anything happen to the reported player as the result of a report? I’d imagine if a report is found to be false, reports from that player are deprioritised, but I don’t think you would punish them because they could just be mistaken.

If you watch high level counterstrike for example, you could be forgiven for thinking some of these players are cheating (despite playing on LAN in an arena) because their aim, prediction and game sense is just that good.

Remind me, who owns WhatsApp?

I guess I’m late to reading about this. As a 19 year old, he met a British 12 year old online, plied them with alcohol, raped them, pled guilty, and was punished for this.

What’s interesting is he was convicted in Britain, and then was sent to serve his sentence in the Netherlands. When he arrived, his sentence was reduced and the crime was changed because Dutch law didn’t recognise his crime as rape if force or violence wasn’t involved (they changed that this year).

Despite that I’m still astonished he was even considered to represent his country in this way. Even though the law and rules allowed it, surely common sense wouldn’t.

It’s still an emerging technology so it makes sense that many of the early adopters are IT nerds. Early Reddit was the same- the most active communities were IT, programming or video game related. More diversity will appear in time.
