@KevinOConnor fuck you and fuck adam sandler

During the NBA GM meeting this week, one person suggested make the bottom three teams ineligible for the top picks entirely. The league, per multiple sources, found this to be way too extreme. But then another person on the call offered a softer version of the same concept: What if the bottom three teams just had slightly lower odds than the teams ranked four through 10? Not zero. Just a little less. Sources on the call say Adam Silver responded enthusiastically to this idea. Which speaks to the state of lottery reform. The 18 team/8% odds for the top 10 concept is simply still just the concept. The specifics of it will change by the time the league votes on it in late May. And adjustments — like this one — are still in heavy consideration. I think it’s brilliant. Under that structure, with the bottom three teams having slightly worse odds, there is no longer a single point in the standings where losing helps you. Tanking all the way to the bottom hurts you a bit. It’s not quite relegation that you’d see in the Premier League, but it’s the NBA’s own form that would punish being the worst in the league. And much like Premier League teams have entertaining games to prevent relegation, NBA teams would too. Picture two bad teams in late March, both within a game of the bottom three, both desperate to win. That's a win for the fans. Picture the front office of the Wizards doing the calculus on whether to shut down Trae Young and Anthony Davis and realizing that, actually, no, the vets need to go play, because falling in the standings is a real cost now, not a reward. That's a win for the sport. Picture Sacramento intentionally fouling Seth Curry late in a game, and the conversation around it shifting from "nefarious tanking" to "bad coaching." That's a win for the league. More on @YahooSports:

@Fullcourtpass @KevinOConnor @TheNBABase bald boy thinks he so funny

Adam Silver is reportedly "enthusiastic" about a new lottery reform proposal that would give the bottom three teams worse odds than teams ranked 4-10, per @KevinOConnor (h/t @TheNBABase)

@2Calico how do we know he's cheating

6 weeks after the announcement of Marathon having a brand new "Fog of War" anti-cheat system to limit wall hacks, cheaters are now making hacking montages on YouTube. This user in the gameplay has been playing the game since launch and uploads them onto his YouTube channel

While people who have never played OTG and have never built a business sit and spread FUD to farm a few views — targeting the biggest web3 game ever created, a game that represents not only itself but the entire web3 gaming industry in front of traditional gaming — we will keep building for the millions of players who actually love our product. And we are deeply grateful for that support. Many choose to show it by becoming paid OTG Pro subscribers (100k users signed in 2025 alone). Every single day, 3,000 new players join OTG. And for those still spreading FUD — we’re happy to set up a live dashboard so you can see every new player joining in real time. Access will cost you 100k GUN — so you can finally put real weight behind your words. Through all of the noise, OTG now has the highest player retention we have ever seen — 2.5x higher than in October 2024, reaching industry-record D1 retention. A year ago, the same voices were claiming the game didn’t have enough players for fast matchmaking. Since then, we have launched multiple new modes — Ranked, Solos, and Custom — something that is only possible with a rapidly growing player base. The same haters who posted thousands of times that we would never appear on Xbox, PlayStation, or Steam — were wrong. It happened. We are now the only web3 game to date available on PlayStation and Xbox. They said we wouldn’t ship the narrative campaign — we already shipped it to players in Q3 last year, and we keep expanding it with every new seasonal update. They said we wouldn’t keep delivering — yet every single month we ship more updates, more features, and more content. Just open our YouTube channel — the track record is public. Haters keep making predictions. We keep delivering. OTG is a game built by a company of over 400 people, developed over 6 years, where the founders invested tens of millions of dollars before raising a single dollar externally. Within 6 years, there has never been a single day where anyone worked in a “work-life balance” mode — it has been a day-and-night fight to ship a project of the scale of Call of Duty, built by an independent studio. And we made it. Through top streamers, we put a web3 game in front of hundreds of millions — doing more for this space than anyone. Off The Grid today is not just part of web3 gaming — it defines it, whether some people like it or not. Being named Web3 Game of the Year two years in a row. Today there is a new narrative from haters — that Gunzilla incorrectly laid off contractors or paid them with delays. Yes, we are optimizing costs — like every company in gaming, crypto, and tech is doing right now. We have been doing this for over a year. And yes, to not disrupt company operations, some payments may be scheduled in a way that works for the company’s cash flow — not always for everyone individually. That’s the reality of the world we live in. But to protect the interests of our players and our full-time official employees — whose salaries, over 6 years, have never been delayed by more than a week — we operate at a pace that ensures the company continues moving forward. And of course, we honor every obligation. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. It’s also worth noting that one of the loudest voices — a contractor who finished working with us just a week ago — was repaid immediately. OTG has been live for over 1.5 years, and we’re still here — despite how much some people would love to see otherwise. Sorry, we won’t be giving you that privilege. And while our dear haters keep trying to find new reasons why Gunzilla should fail — we will keep responding with achievements. Including being recognized by one of the most reputable business media outlets in the world as one of the most innovative companies in gaming in 2026 — for bringing new life into the largest printed gaming magazine in the world, Game Informer, which we continue to grow day by day. fastcompany.com/91497218/gamin…
