I would have translated it as:

Yes, but only if someone is around to see it happen.

This made me laugh out loud. Fits the pic perfectly.

The poop or the poster? Or the Koala?

The poster's behind you, is he?

Would any of you be interested in a copy of Majesty Gold HD and/or Majesty 2 for Steam? I have a key for each. They're just not my kind of game, and so I'd like to gift them away to someone who would actually play it.

I didn't post to Twitter this time. Just here and on the IRC channel.

What kind of games fit your style anyway (other than CS:GO)?

Bam's favorite game is currently Player Unknown's Battlegrounds.

It may actually gotten worse. That, or since I rank ~4,000 on the US servers, I'm nearer all the hackers. But we've lost countless games to hackers.

Now, before you get !@$!'d by a hacker, the game is still fun with friends. But knowing "I should have won" when there were 2 people left (you and another guy) and the other guy ends up... on top of a three story house with no stairway up shooting down at you. You feel pretty pissed.

Also, I've mentioned with my friends many times, PUBG should drop everything and focus on hackers #1 (they can !@$!'ing afford a full professional security team). Why? Because here's what happens:

- You play a game normally. You win or lose. You accept it.

- You play a game with hackers. You win or lose, or get !@$!'d by a hacker. The PROBLEM is that it's often hard to tell whether you got owned by a really-good (TM) player, or, simply a hacker. (Especially in survival games like PUBG where you can't see the actions of other players and there's no replay.)

- So the more times you DO die from a hacker, the more times you start to QUESTION whether your "questionable deaths" from "possible" hackers (OR quality players). You start questioning EVERYTHING. It's a seed planted in your head that you can't remove. "Was I just cheated out of a win/a kill/survival?" It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy (of sorts) where you're brain starts associating "dubious loss" with "definitely cheating" when before you were more objective about it.

So now, even with my friends, I've watched it happen and we all agree that more and more dubious events that we used to brush off as good players we now assume are cheaters and increase the "number of times burned by cheaters" in our head mentally. All subconsciously. The game experienced is tainted.

It's like when you hear of some black guy shot by cops and the cops get off. The cops might be totally innocent and legally justified. But in your head you're still thinking, either "maybe they're all corrupt" or even worse, "they are all corrupt." (And at that point you're jaded to the point of rejecting negative evidence to the contrary.)

I'm certainly affected at this point. We're seeing hackers every time we play. They don't always win (because they suck, otherwise they wouldn't need hacks), but it's enough to taint our perception of the game and if it gets much worse, we'll have to stop playing a game we absolutely love playing.

I want to give PUBG devs the benefit of the doubt. I know it started with a modder, and now a (large) indie team of hard working people. But I'm running out of reasons to cut them slack for still not dealing with something 100% more important than any other problem in the game. You cannot have a competitive game with cheaters.

Nobody would watch football/basketball/etc if players started running out of bounds and into the stands and then "scoring" by tossing it in. (As hilarious as that would be to see once.)

[skip to anywhere around 3m30s, no idea why Allegro doesn't support that.]

Counter-Strike. I could switch to a zombie server for the occasion, but I probably won't.

I got the Switch at a Midnight launch.

The main part of the new Mario game is SHORT! But there's content to see AFTER you beat the main part of the game. There's a level stuck behind 500 power moons (without buying them, there's over 800 of them things to find) And there was another one, but I forgot how many you need for that one (got it fairly soon after I beat the main game)
