Re: Revnak's Dishonest Rise to #1 In Team

Smurfing is rampant on the team ladder, including by "pillars of the community." Adding ranked lobbies would detract from the integrity of elo, though.

I found him here: https://aoe3explorer.com/player/1484917?mode=teamSupremacy He's not on the ladder anymore because he has not played any ranked games recently. Thanks, Jim.

Re: Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Where does that article conflate anti-Semitism and anti-zionism? You're not helping your cause by jumping down someone's throat for simply pointing out that there is a rise in anti-Semitism. Funny how Israel is a colonial venture when over 50% of Israeli Jews are the descendants of Jews that lived f...

Re: Israeli-Palestinian conflict

The Jabalia "refugee camp" is a permanent town inhabited by the grandchildren of persons displaced in 1948. It's not a camp of refugees fleeing the current conflict. It's in the far north of Gaza where civilians were advised to evacuate and is a Hamas stronghold, according to Wikipedia.

Re: Ranked Lobbies, It's Time.

Boggling to me that there isn't agreement on ranked team lobbies at least on these forums. ELO integrity is already 6ft under with smurfing in team and abusable strats like the barbary revolt or USA FI. Finding a fun 2v2 or 3v3 at an intermediate or high level was so much easier on ESO.

Re: US Politics Megathread

It's unbecoming that you are pretending that it is by using unnecessarily loaded language. Their definition should be "actual" and "intuitive" according to your perceptions/beliefs. You don't seem to like the standard that many judges have agreed on, from Marshal to Alito. Can y...

I would simply define liberty in a way more in line with its actual, intuitive definition. How do you propose Americans come to an agreement on an "actual, intuitive definition" of liberty? They don't need to. That's up to the SC. Ok, got it. You want an unelected oligarchy of nine decidi...

Whether or not the right to abort a pregnancy is implicit in ordered liberty seems about as subjective as whether it's deeply rooted in American tradition. ...
