I don’t know a ton of people who write Rust regularly, but most people at least somewhat familiar with it love the idea of the language.
Though of course actually using the language is a different story, as the compiler can be intimidating.
Is ascended celestial gear a waste?
Basically the title. Long time player who mostly does casual open world content. Celestial gear can be pretty fun for open world content, and I like the of having only one set of armour per character. Though I believe the fact that celestial armour has toughness somewhat negates its usefulness in endgame content? This is mostly on the context of a celestial firebrand. Thanks for any insight!
Would Red Bull buy out his contract for next year?
He’s in a situation where he’s clearly under performing, but it doesn’t get as much attention as it would if the championship was even remotely close.
Poaching Twitter employees and stealing “trade secrets”.
Because you know, it has nothing to do with the fact that Threads is basically just Instagram with no pictures.
Thanks.
I’m almost more concerned about maps than structure. I don’t think everyone likes to slam their face into the keyboard for an hour to get AT on Summer 2023 15.
Challenging yet accessible maps that don’t inspire rage, ya know?
Trackmania at a LAN party
A group of my friends have a LAN party once or twice a year, usually around 10-15 people, and I’d like to try (re) introducing Trackmania. We used to play Trackmania 2 Canyon back in the day, but TM has been absent from LANs for quite some time now, and the group has shifted enough that many weren’t around for those days. I’m looking for ideas on how to structure a local session to maximize fun for everyone, including those unfamiliar with Trackmania. We do play Wreckfest, so there is at least some disposition to racing games. I’m thinking of hand selecting some beginner-intermediate level maps that aren’t too long (so finishing isn’t too challenging), and doing a rotating time attack to get the ball rolling. I might throw in some lol maps to keep things not as sweaty (as some members are quite good at TM). After everyone is warmed up and feeling good, I’m hoping to do an elimination “tournament” (like cup of the day) to generate some hype for a final showdown. This could be less fun for some due to knock outs, but with a short enough map it could be pretty fun. I’m thinking TM 2020 would be my ideal, but TMNF might be easier to get setup and going. If you’ve done something similar with Trackmania, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
