Q: Why many expert players just disconnect on the last round in Hearthstone?

I'm a (not too)novel Hearthstone player, this month I'm on rank 12 in ranked mode and many, many, many times when my opponents feels that I'm gonna win the fight they just quit the game, that is, my opponents simply disconnects on the last round when they feel that they are gonna loose the match,...

@TimStone Definitely a novel approach.

@TimStone the "uh oh" at the end is so great

@ash can confirm, the star trek minigame is fun

after using the time device, you pick the option "travel to the far future" to play it

user15026

More fun than batfellow? Because that one was hard for me :P

GodEmperorDune

did you play the cinderella at the ball minigame through the grimstone mask?

it's like that except star trek

(I still haven't played batfellow, i need to buy a Mr. A and pick up some comics)

basically its red alert, you have one of a few hostile aliens (so far I've seen borg, a gas cloud, and klingon/romulan/only respects strength) and you need ot figure out how to stop them in a time limit

you can pick up items and train skills on the holodeck

and your various officers sometimes have clues to help

like the doctor told me to mess with the borg's eyepieces but i never figured out how before i got overrun

but i won against the warlike race by training up my gunner skill and shooting a warning shot, then talking smack over the viewscreen

user15026

@GodEmperorDune Yes I did, I was rubbish at it. :P But I liked it

user15026

10:25 PM

@GodEmperorDune I might still have some comics, as soon as I can pull stuff (I'm still ronin I think) I can send you one?

GodEmperorDune

@Ash well once you're out of ronin you need to open the many care packages i sent :p

Wipqozn

@TimStone I think I'm in the final stretch.

Tim Stone

ooo

Wipqozn

aka just got to london

user15026

@GodEmperorDune hahaha yes that too

user15026

10:26 PM

You spoil me :P

GodEmperorDune

but don't worry about sending one, i've been planning to pick up a mr a to buy a bunch of comics, just haven't gotten around to it

Wipqozn

I wonder if I'll fail or succeed?

I don't care enough to fix that

GodEmperorDune

@Wipqozn clearly you failed at linking

Unionhawk

@Wipqozn is streaming twitch.tv/wipqozn

there

fixed

10:28 PM

@Unionhawk thanks

Tim Stone

@Wipqozn As a heads up when you get to the part where it tells you to search for a key I'm like 100% sure there is no actual key and it just triggers the thing once you do takedowns on all the people

Wipqozn

@TimStone ah I seee

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk this is so much more interesting than @twobugs stream

Tim Stone

Ugh, the stream is super laggy on my end for some reason

Damn you Twitch

GodEmperorDune

> which stream should i waaaaaaaaaaaaaatch?

it's @badp @badp, inadequate mousing with @badp

Q: Infamous 1 kuo and the Beast

How come Kuo didn't come and get Cole Mcgrath sooner and plan to stop the beast which we all know is John White. Still how did John White become the beast?

Work is switching benefits providers. They claim it will be the same as current provider. I think I am going to make HR crazy because I worked in dental insurance just long enough to be able to ask a lot of annoying questions about the switchover (because I have a bunch of things coming up that were going to be covered under old plan that I want to make sure are covered under new plan)

user15026

This made me realize I've held a number of very different jobs over my life.

GodEmperorDune

@Ash ugh insurance plan stuff is the worst

(no offense)

user15026

@GodEmperorDune nah man, it's terrible enough here, I can't imagine your stuff.

user15026

I'm not offended - it was just a job I took when I needed one :)

GodEmperorDune

10:49 PM

"is X covered?" "here, have a look through this 600 page statement of benefits"

user15026

With 90 million exceptions and exclusions and restrictions.

GodEmperorDune

"oh i mean you could find it in the statement of benefits, but we're not allowed to give that to you until you join"

user15026

@GodEmperorDune hahaha that is a response I got today!

GodEmperorDune

"instead please look at this single page thing that doesn't say much at all"

user15026

I was like "can I see info on the new benefits" "they're the same as the old" "can I see a SoB" "not until you get the new card and the new book" "when will that be" "¯\_(ツ)_/¯"

10:52 PM

....where did his arm go

GodEmperorDune

@Ash \\

user15026

Why does he need two arms for one

GodEmperorDune

escape character

user15026

ah.

user15026

Like it's not my work's fault, I don't blame them at aall

Tim Stone

10:53 PM

This is like the most unwatchable stream ever. I don't understand why Twitch hates me. Or hates @Wipqozn, whatever the case may be

user15026

Insurance is just made to be frustratign i think

Wipqozn

@TimStone or voth

Unionhawk

@TimStone So quality options are a partner thing

GodEmperorDune

@TimStone clearly you should blame @Wipqozn (or voth)

Wipqozn

@TimStone is it super laggy?

Unionhawk

10:53 PM

So you're watching on source no matter what

Tim Stone

Suuuuuper laggy

Wipqozn

oh it's frozen

Tim Stone

The video, anyway

The audio is mostly fine?

But the video stats keep claiming it's 30 FPS and lolno

It's like 1/30 FPS

GodEmperorDune

@Ash i don't know if its intentionally bureaucratic to make people give up and not use it or just a subtle incentive that they never bothered to correct

Wipqozn

My upload speed is fine, it's at >50

@fredley @Ronan @otherBrexiters... How do you pronounce 6th?

user15026

@GodEmperorDune How are you seeing the IoTM? Mr. Store still shows me the ghost one

GodEmperorDune

@Ash it came out to subscribers today

Tim Stone

@Wipqozn I think it's just trolling me tbh

GodEmperorDune

it will probably be available after rollover

Tim Stone

There doesn't appear to be anything wrong outside of it just not working

user15026

10:55 PM

@GodEmperorDune Oh, right, I stopped doing that for a bit because I wasn't playing a lot

Wipqozn

Looks cauight up now

actually no it's still way behind and frozen

GodEmperorDune

@Wipqozn let it go

Unionhawk

What does it say your bitrate and dropped frame count are?

(OBS will say this somewhere)

Wipqozn

one sec I'll check

Tim Stone

lol, his mouse is moving smoothly in the pause screen

Wipqozn

10:57 PM

0.4% dropped frames

3127 kb/s

Unionhawk

Broadcasting 1080p/30 fps?

It appears fine to me

Tim Stone

Seems better now

FINGERS CROSSED

I refuse to sign up for Twitch to message you in the Twitch chat, @Wipqozn

Wipqozn

@TimStone that's fair

Tim Stone

But yeah, it's watchable now

Yeah, this is the most obnoxious thing

Unionhawk

Yeah it feels framey but I dunno

Sometimes

Tim Stone

11:07 PM

(the e key thing, not the stream this time)

Unionhawk

Ah

Tim Stone

Uh oh, he let one of them go to the bathroom

Unionhawk

Oh it feels framey because occasional but mostly ok frame drops

Tim Stone

It's not necessarily the last guard, but neutralizing them all is recommended

lol @ him taking the most complicated route to get there

FYI @Wipqozn in that bank of lockers there's a triangle piece

Wipqozn

@TimStone thanks, but I'm not bothering with those

Tim Stone

11:18 PM

Oh you

Yuuki

Caching is the worst.

Every other message that @TimStone wrote had his Twitter avatar up and it confused the hell out of me.

Refreshed the page and now it's all identicons.

Tim Stone

Eheheh

Oh wow, I just heard that

Unionhawk

I think if you refreshed the delay would tighten a bit

But maybe not

Twitch is dark magic

Who could have known the bad guy was the guy who was obviously the bad guy because he was mean the first time you met him and is on the splash screen?
