@day9tv Uncommon in distribution or content? Here's a bit of both. - Holy Motors (2012) - One Cut of the Dead (2017) - Fish Story (2009) - Drive My Car (2021) - Toni Erdmann (2016) - Sullivan's Travels (1941) + O' Brother Where Art Thou (2000) double feature
@JoINrbs Your idea is still a really good one that more tournaments should consider. Just calling out the (maybe obvious) reasons why it's historically done this way.
@JoINrbs Very true. Abstractions ignore rock-paper-scissors matchups participants might have, as well. Part of the hope of maximizing seeding differential though is to overcome that variance, while also avoiding "gaming the structure."
@JoINrbs Did you know there's no standard way of seeding losers' bracket? Trade-offs between making it so so a participant is less likely to lose to the same opponent twice vs average seed delta, etc.
@JoINrbs I spent some time a long time ago, trying to come up with a better system for melee than double-elim or swiss pools cut to double-elim. No luck, it's just a matter of resources (time, # of setups, etc) as a constraint.
I think the discourse around casual/social players and competitive players would benefit from considering a framing I haven’t seen discussed. It’s what I’ll call light gamers vs heavy gamers. 🧵
@ysamlan @marctollin @GAMIGANG "Classic MtB on Red Bull" is a focused laser directly into my brain's decision making center for grabbing my curiosity. Listening now.
@GroundControl 100% agree. It's really shocking to me how often I encounter the philosophy that documentation is an anti-pattern—often paired with an arrogance that their code is perfectly clear without the need for additional comments.
@bdarfler @nicksergeant Is that just pizza with fewer ingredients?

@nineczar Where did your final build end up? I'm still pretty early on, doing Cool/Int/Tech and could see myself being in a similar situation.
