@JesperLarsen222 @STYKOcs @MischiefCS2 Some problems with map and round differentials: Maps and map pools aren't equal. Some maps tend more towards blowouts than others. If you have perennial chokers, they might make games close, but never win. On the other hand you have teams that are wildly inconsistent.

I think there is reasonable argument that being able to take a map is a good measure that you were able to push the opponent. And at the same time it could be used to limit the impact of bo1's on the ranking which is really a balancing issue in VRS if we are being honest. But the point is more that H2H adjustment is supposed to be the mechanic in VRS whose sole purpose is to align the "theoretic ranking" from the base model with the actual results of the matches, meaning the actual strength of the teams measured by their ability to defeat opponents. I still feel like a bo1 win is definately not as impressive as clean bo3 or even bo5 win. Sample size simply matters I would say. Close maps versus blow outs is also tempting, but first of all it becomes more challenging data wise and VRS is a data driven model, VRS doesnt have the map scores in multi map matches. Second I think its also wrong because teams might throw maps if they get a bad start or might want to get bad incentives if map scores mattered for ranking. But no team will deliberately throw a map beforehand, so in almost all cases a map win is a legit show of strength in some way. Just thoughts, not saying its perfect 😊

It's 10:43, and I already checked @MischiefCS2 profile 36 times today. NEED THEM SINNERS %

@JesperLarsen222 @STYKOcs @MischiefCS2 Without a blue checkmark I can't go into long discussions here, lol 😅 I don't mind giving Bo1 matches a lower value than Bo3. You can do that without doing the maps thing. That would also incentivize events towards Bo3s.

@JesperLarsen222 @STYKOcs @MischiefCS2 I'm skeptical. It's dangerous to stray from the essence of competition which is the binary win/loss scenario of a match. If we want to follow the other logic, why not base H2H on round differentials? (there are lots of good reasons, and many of them apply to the other argument)

Yes correct. Same cost in VRS. I have often wondered myself if it wouldnt be more fair if the H2H calculation was based on maps rather than just binary result of the match. So that a 1-2 defeat or 0-1 defeat was less costly than a 0-2 defeat and vice versa 🤔 I think there is an argument there potentially since H2H adjustment is supposed to adjust the base ranking with actual results.

@SMSerup Der er et eller andet komisk når man sidestiller dit afsluttende citat med Venstres forfærdelige valg i København. Og det er ikke ment som et kritik af dit citat eller dine pointer.

Jeg har talt med The Times om valgkampen: The ‘Hobbit’ election: why Denmark is ignoring a global crisis thetimes.com/article/98fb94…

@AndersJohn1973 @fghjorth @hansersej Hvor mange stemmer partierne har fået i forhold til hinanden er irrelevant for kortet. Det viser kun, hvilke områder der ligger over gennemsnittet for det enkelte parti, og hvor meget over det ligger. SF's stemmer er spredt mere ligelidt %-mæssigt

@fghjorth @hansersej Hvorfor er Danmarksdeokraternes kort, med halv så mange stemmer som SF, nærmest helt mættet både hvad angår densitet og udbredelse? Det går igen ved SocDem også.

FOUR GRAPHS ABOUT 🇩🇰'S GENERAL ELECTION My read of the election in four graphs. First: big urban-rural divide. The two big mainstream parties, Social Democrats and Liberals, are now mainly rural/suburban, with niche parties dominating in cities. (1/4) #dkpol

Tomorrow 🔜 #BLASTPremier

@larsharhoff Hvilken side, vil Moderaterne i så fald hælde til? Strategisk for partiet tænker jeg mod venstre, men for LLRs personlige ambitioner på den korte bane kunne det godt være højre.

og politisk gridlock. De Radikale mistede deres enorme inflydelse for 3% af vælgerne, fordi de ikke længere troværdigt kunne skifte side. Hvis Moderaterne vil være de nye radikale, bliver de nødt til at vælge en side, så de kan true med at gå. 16/16

Mange (inklusiv mig selv) har tidligere spået, at @moderaterne_dk kommer til at overtage den stabiliserende rolle i midten af dansk politik, som @radikale frem til 2001. Jeg tror nu i stedet at Moderaterne strukturelt vil være en destabiliserende faktor på dansk politik: 1/n

@messioso @Statsmin @DanishMFA plus point for royal copenhagen-stellet

Okay Denmark @Statsmin @DanishMFA, attempt #2 of convincing you via food that I should have citizenship. Very important today on election day where as a mere permanent resident I cannot vote. I present my valgflæsk.

Jeg udgiver nye afsnit af min podcastdokumentar “Paradigmeskiftet”. Det første afsnit handler om den højreradikale bevægelse Generation Identitærs storhed, fald og comeback Hvis du kan lide hvad du hører, så del gerne paradigmeskiftet.podbean.com/e/6-global-ant…

@Nohte Br4tkO summer incoming

@TomJensen1966 Hvis man støtter angrebet, så må man også tage ejerskab for følgerne. Det kan ende med en fejlslagen stat, borgerkrig og ustabilitet i regionen, utal af døde, energikrise i Europa og Asien og et enormt flygtningepres på Europa.

Hvis man støtter angrebet mod Irans mullahstyre, åbner man så også for at acceptere Ruslands overfald på Ukraine eller Trumps trusler om annektering af Grønland? Jeg svarer nej her i Berlingskes leder: “Det må således spille ind i den samlede vurdering af USAs og Israels militære operation, at styret i Teheran ikke kan siges at have nogen reel legitimitet. Det er et regime, der – senest i januar – ikke har tøvet med at slå tusinder af sine egne borgere ihjel. Og som samtidig udgør en konstaterbar regional og global trussel. Ikke alene gennem Irans åbenbare forsøg på at udvikle atomvåben, men også via rollen som sponsor af terrorgrupper, herunder Hamas og Hizbollah. Det er bestanddele, man ikke kan ignorere i bedømmelsen af, om det var rimeligt af USA og Israel at indlede angrebet i weekenden. Og det er også faktuelle omstændigheder, der på afgørende vis differentierer det iranske regime fra Ukraine og Grønland. Ingen af de to demokratier har udgjort nogen aggressiv trussel mod deres omverden. I ingen af de lande har et illegitimt styre undertrykt og dræbt egne borgere.” berlingske.dk/ledere/berling…

@sorenpind Jeg savner en selvransagelse fra fortidens politikere, der arvede FN, EU og NATO fra deres forgængere, for hvordan deres tid ved magten har ledt til den nye tid.

Mange har haft travlt med at kritisere den gamle verdensorden og forklare, hvordan fortidens politikere der byggede FN, EU og NATO op og skabte globaliseringen, har været nogle kæmpe idioter og forrædere. Jeg er nysgerrig på, hvad du foretrækker?

@kurrild Så tror jeg, at jeg hænger mig i ordet "kandidat", fordi det for mig implicit handler om valgbarhed i den kontekst. Om hun er præsident-materiale eller generelt mangler kvalitet, skal jeg ikke kloge mig på.

@Real_UncleJakes At jeg mener, at hun er ukvalificeret. Hvilket på ingen måde er det samme som, at hun ikke kan blive valgt. Tydeligvis.

De, som mener, at AOC er muligt præsidentkandidat-materiale i USA, bør lige lytte til dette svar ...

@kurrild Du antyder, at hun ikke er præsidentkandidat-materiale baseret på et klip med hendes svar til Taiwan-spørgsmålet. Hvad skal jeg udlede af det?

@Real_UncleJakes Hvem antyder, at det vil gøre det?

@kasperstraube @pglesports @ESL what are the many reasons?

As a player, you would always prefer @pglesports over @ESL for many reasons - unless we’re talking about events like Cologne or Katowice/Krakow/Somewhere in Poland where they'd host events nowadays.

@NER0cs @TeamVitalityCS is this a preview of a stats page us mere mortals might be able to browse in the future? 👀

After yesterday's triumph, @TeamVitalityCS became the first organization to win 20 Big Event titles NIP (37-23) remain ahead on LAN event wins, from the era before Big Events were as common

@OnFireAnders Hvad fik dig til at tænke, at dollaren ville falde? Personligt synes jeg investering i europæisk forsvar har været rimelig åbenlyst i lang tid

It seems some people in the esports space have a slight interest in investment stuff too, so here is a post: First of all, I'm an idiot. So just assume everything I type in this thread is dead wrong and obviously this isn't advice of anything. Back in May 2020 I got super interested in the idea of stock trading and spent some time trying to figure out what kind of stocks I might be intersted in. Somewhere along that journey I stumbled in this piece of advice which basically said "invest into what you find interesting", meaning if you don't care about cars, spending time understanding the car world might suck.. I dont know why I found the mining industry to be super fun. What does it take to build a mine? What is a pre-feasability study? How do we know whats in the ground etc etc.. Im not claiming to be an expert but researching it was fun. I had an overall theory which was that the USD would weaken and that metals would go up massively. I thought this would cause a crash in the tech world and that those investors would have to flee into commodities at large, causing stock prices to go boom. I realized that the rational play here was to invest into ETFs in the sector like the GDX or the GDXJ, which honestly would have been a better and saner play for me. But perhaps because of latent brain damage brought on by too much esports, I decided to invest directly into junior mining and exploration companies that I found interesting and believed in, and that were in "us friendly" parts of the world. These were/are: McEwen Mining First Mining Gold Corp Euro Sun Mining International Tower Hill Mines and a tiny stake in a company called Rugby Mining which has since split off into two other companies: NexGOLD mining Andina Copper I opened these main 4 positions in May 2020 mostly because I wanted a way to show people later on if I was correct in my overall market prediction, that I actually had made the commitment to the position and it wasn't just some lose idea. Now another bit of disclaimer, all of this could be totally wrong and I understand that even if some of the singals I thought would happen seem to be present, it doesn't really in any way what so ever confirm that im really right in any meaningful way. But yeah if you find this stuff interesting feel free to look up the companies I bought into and tell im an idiot ❤️

@RyRyCS @BLASTPremier @Vexanie

Got a new job for @BLASTPremier 📸 @Vexanie

@Pakzadesque Samt indført sanktioner mod diverse firmaer og mennesker, der er forbundet til bosætterne. Synes jeg selv, at det er for lidt og burde være sket for lang tid siden? (før 7. oktober) Ja. Men kritikken af talen rammer ved siden af målet for mig.

@Pakzadesque Og så vidt jeg ved, så har Canada fordømt Israels gerninger fra kort tid efter 7. oktober, lavet embarko på salg af våben til Israel og sagt at de vil håndhæve ICC's arrestordre på Netanyahu. Carney har også sammenlignet Ruslands invasion af Ukraine med Gaza og Vestbredden.
