The concept of Affleck seeing Will belonging in a different place to live up to his own potential and deciding to put their friendship to the side in order to let him grow was actually crazy

I just read a synopsis and this movie lowkey seems like an informational hazard

I haven't watched that movie, and from what I've heard/seen of it, I never want to

Yeah I watched it for the second time recently. Absolutely incredible film. People forget about Ben Affleck though lol

definitely niche; IDK, doesn't look that appealing to me

this is a movie title?

It's great, but nothing tops Spirited Away for me. Spirited Away is Miyazaki's magnum opus.

I watched both pacific rims lmao. First one was good, the sequel was a disaster. Dont feel like watching the lego movie

Anyone have suggestions for some fun movies to watch that might not be as well known?

(e.g. I've already watched all of the Christopher Nolan movies, so don't recommend those) + I don't really like horror

Sources are saying you are smoking a shit ton of zaza and this roster was revealed to you in a vision

how did so many people fall for this?

If we win against EDG, i will do another winner. And another winner for every prx win

what the fuck is a goomana?

If PRX get more wins, you'll have the opportunity

nah, a promise is a promise

I don't want it to stop at 25 though :D

response??? I don't have any allegations lmao. I'm doing this for public visibility and accountability.

Hi all, I'm the PRX fan who made this thread, where I promised to give a $25 gift card to a random reply for every PRX win this champs. As PRX have won their first game, I owe someone a $25 gift card.

In order to select the winner for the first Gift card, I used a random number generator to select the comment#, with people who made duplicate entries having the numbers of their extra entries removed (it was a pain in the ass to check this).

So, I ran the random number generator, and I swear on my life, on God, on Jesus, on my mother's life, that the number I got back was #42. So, I go to see who number #42 is... it's number2_cned_fan. How the fuck is this type of coincidence possible? How is it that FUT and cned's loss delivers $25 of value to the most profilic cned glazer of the site? This is lowkey some sort of religious experience.

Look at what he wrote in #42!. "gonna be real awkard when they get zero wins". This guy was clowning on me and PRX. I got into an argument with him the other day bc he thinks MrBeast's totally legit charity work excuses his shitty behavior. number2_cned_fan does not like me. And somehow he gets the first giftcard from FUT's loss. You cannot make this shit up. I'm happy for the PRX win, but to cned fan, I'm sorry about the loss.

So I will uphold my promise. I will be dming him to confirm what type of giftcard he wants (valorant or apple). He will verify that I'm not a fraud.

Now that PRX have won a game, the toxic baiters like BulkyLettuce & JingggFamily lawyer will be stirring shit. Please ignore them; they dont represent the PRX community. I hope the opportunity of winning a $25 gift card can mitigate the negativity coming from them. I really hope PRX make me lose a lot more money.

Their micro was so terrible, which is sad bc they had decent macro. Hope they can reset.

surely we're not baiting this situation?

nah fut is randomly a terrifying team to play against at times. Im scared

:(

Mazino's Ex accused him of abuse. This dude switched to rape. IDK how much more obvious I can make it.

Alex didn't switch it to rape. He simply showcased an example of false allegations that does occur IRL. He was simply trying to provide an example. Nowhere did he say that he classifies the allegation as a rape allegation. Show me where Alex says that this is a rape allegation. You can't, because he didn't.

This is just not how a single human of the face of the earth operates or should operate. You wouldn't expect your doctor to treat ebola as equally likely as the common cold because you are an individual. You do not know what you are talking about. Yes racists do use similar talking points. Part of the reason those points can be so gripping for many idiots is because there is a shred of logic in them. However, racists will intentionally remove or ignore context to make it seem like the causes for those statistics (usually crime statistics) are because of inherent attributes of people of a certain race not because of how our society over polices and discriminate against certain groups. You do not understand what you are talking about.

You dingus I'm not referring to medicine. What I said is specifically in the context of criminal charges/accusations of misconduct. Your analogy about ebola and the common cold is entirely besides the point because medicine and criminal law should not be handled the same! How can you not see this? Instead of using false analogies, explain how it is ever ok to assume someone is guilty because of the statistics of that crime.

No shit sherlock. Where did I advocate for jailing Mazino? Better yet where did I even say Mazino was guilty (here's a hint you won't find it because I don't assume he is). You talk big game about how I misrepresent this fucker then you misrepresent me. Innocent until proven guilt is a legal standard because imprisoning an innocent person is a violent crime. Innocent until proven guilty is by definition illogical. Being unable to prove a positive does not make the negative true. Just because I cannot prove that there is a star exactly 912.321 million light years away does not mean that there is certainly not a star 912.321 million light years away.

If you do not assume that Mazino is guilty, then there is absolutely zero point in bringing up the statistics of allegations. Please go back and read the posts as I reference them in the next few sentences. In #4, Alex asks how could a psychologist testimony be useful, as he doesn't understand. In #8 you provide an explanation in response to #4. In response to what you wrote in #8, in #14 Alex raises the possibility of a psychologist testimony not being valid, and provides an example of how it could not be proof of an allegation. He does not say this is what is happening here. He does not say that this is a rape allegation. He simply provides an example to demonstrate his legitimate concern about why a psychologist's testimony might not be iron-clad evidence. In #12, I addressed Alex's concerns in a much more succinct and tangible way than you did in #8, and he had no disagreements with me.

The only reason I brought up innocent until proven guilty is because it seems like you are assuming Mazino is guilty. However, I do see that you didn't say that explicitly anywhere, so if you truly are not assuming Mazino's guilty, I am sorry for misunderstanding you.

Looking back, it seems like we are fighting each other's non existent ghosts. I think you're assuming Mazino is guilty, and you think we're assuming he's innocent, when it would seem neither is the case.

You might have had a point (not really but if I'm being incredibly generous) until again he accused sinatraa's ex of a crime without evidence. He literally proved my point. With sinatraa its innocent until proven guilty, but with his ex she's automatically guilty of having falsified an allegation without any corroborating evidence. He would not agree with me if he holds these opinions. As long as he holds these opinions and as long as you defend him I will say you are scum simple as that. Not believing an allegation automatically is the normal thing to do yes. Insisting that the alleged is innocent to the point of calling an accusation a lie without evidence is not. The real neutral stance is not "innocent until proven guilty" but "idk he might have done it he might not have we don't know until more information comes out but I will not make any assertions." Whatever I'm done here you're just as scum as him for defending him good luck.

I 100% agree with you on what the real neutral stance is. I literally said the same thing in my first point in #37: "Until proof of her allegations arises, or proof of her faking this arises, you can't be conclusive either way. It doesn't matter what the statistics on these types of cases are."

I never said that Mazino is definitively innocent, the same way it turns out you never definitively said he's guilty. Alex also never said Mazino is definitively innocent. He literally said in #4 that he is not taking sides. Once again, the only reason I ever talked about "innocent until proven guilty" is because I thought you were insisting that he's guilty. W/respect to Sinatraa, as far as I can tell, the official investigation found him innocent, there is a lot of controversy surrounding it, and I didn't follow that when it happened, so I cannot speak to it. A lot of people think Sinatraa is innocent, and evidently Alex is one of those people. Once again, I don't have an informed opinion on that issue. I think it would have been better for Alex to reference the Flashback incident instead of such a controversial one, because once again, Alex was simply trying to provide examples of false/inaccurate allegations because he thought you were assuming guilt, the same way you thought he was assuming innocence.

One last thing. It turns out we now have 3rd party testimony seeming to go against the accuser's claims. It is from a streamer who was in the friend group with mazino and his ex gf. And guess which vlr user is bringing us this testimony? Alex, the guy who you assumed has no legitimate reason to back his concerns.

Maybe you should stop assuming the worst in people, because it turns out Alex had material to make him question the allegations. Is this 3rd party testimony conclusive? No it isn't, but you can't entirely discard it either.

I'm sorry for assuming your beliefs. I hope you realize you've been doing the same to me and Alex.

I'm hoping they lock in the same way Loud did last year after losing the first game to DRX.

Who is this person? Are they a pro player as well?

I'm sorry I couldn't give you any enjoyable memories

I hope not. It would be extremely sad.

Nice! If you can, learn some old languages like Cobol, so that you can convert some old government systems, as that pays good money. I'm pretty sure that the market rate for converting cobol to a different system is something along the line of $5 per line of cobol, and some systems are hundreds of thousands to millions of lines of cobol.

I'm heading off to a Physics Ph.D. lol.

I'm still going to try to explain.

The case he describe is a pure hypothetical that is tangentially related to the Mazino allegations through use of a psychologist. Yes the case he describe is possible I never said it wasn't... Its just immensely improbable and bringing it up is a telling talking point and I would say a dogwhistle if it wasn't so overt.

At this point, everything is hypothetical. You are not understanding. As of now, there is no hard evidence. Until proof of her allegations arises, or proof of her faking this arises, you can't be conclusive either way. It doesn't matter what the statistics on these types of cases are.

This isn't a lottery or a game with odds that you bet on! People's lives are at stake! You have to evaluate the evidence before you. Mazino is an individual, not a statistic. You don't realize this, but racists use the same statistics-based argument you are using to discriminate against individuals. It does not matter what the statistics are when evaluating an individual's case. Period.

We can only wait to see what evidence comes forward.

Faulty use of logic. When evaluating an individual case you should start from a population perspective before adjusting the likelyhood of an event occuring based on the details of the individual i.e. context. Unless you have significantly more than me or him what I said stands.

Absolutely WRONG. You do not use macro group probabilities to evaluate a micro individual event. See the above point. The western legal system is predicated on "innocent until proven guilty". We do not want to imprison innocent people.

You misunderstand. I don't think he's arguing in bad faith. I think he's a bad person. Look at his reply to my comment. He accuses sinatraa's ex of a crime without evidence just like I said he would. He sucks. So do you.

Brother in #13 I contributed to your list on useful questions to ask the psychologist, and in #12 I literally explained to Alex why the psychologist testimony is useful! You are conveniently dodging that fact that he agreed with me in #16. You misinterpreted what he said, and that pissed him off into an exchange of insults with you. If you were more civil in explaining, he would agree with you.

READ WHAT ALEX WROTE! Nowhere does he categorically classify all accusations as false!

I haven't seen statistics on % of accusations that are false either, but regardless of what the statistics are, my point stands. I really hope he understands.

What are you going to be heading off to, if i may ask?

I'm actually kind of the same with PRX. I'm starting grad school in two weeks, so I'm not going to have time anymore.

I get that it's annoying to have someone misrepresent what you're saying, but don't fall into the level of insults, because then you end up doing what he's doing.

It requires a lot of patience, but it is worth it to maintain your composure.

Alex is being clumsy in his language, but he is not discussing this in bad faith. Look at #16. If you are civil and explain things clearly, he will understand and agree.

You misinterpreted what he said.

the occurrence is so small that it's not worth considering

This isn't a statistical analysis! This is an individual case where ALL possibilities MUST BE considered. At this point, there isn't hard evidence, so the case that AlexSMTx described is possible.

You CANNOT use group statistics in evaluating an individual's case. Please understand this.

Just because someone disagrees with you, that is not enough to write off their argument as not being in good faith.

Alex simply discussed a possibility. Look at #16! When I clarified to him how the psychologist testimony is valuable in a civil manner, he agreed with me!

I get that placing your trust in a public figure and having that trust betrayed is a tough experience, and can make it scary to trust anyone else because you don't want to feel that way again.

But have faith; there are more good people than bad people, so continue to support those who havent betrayed your trust.

np

bro calm down; the thing he is describing does happen, but obviously not all accusations by women are like this, and I don't think he was trying to say all accusations by women are like this. I think he was just trying to give an example.

That isn't rape. Yes, there's regret, but it's not a case for rape, and the guy is not legally culpabale. She would have to lie that she didn't give consent. If she doesn't lie about giving consent, then she won't have a case.

That is a gross misrepresentation of what psychology is about. Are there pathetic psychologists who do what you said? Yes, but you can't paint everyone with one broad stroke.

"how long has the defendant been seeking your counsel?"

The point is that if she's been getting counseling for months before going public with the allegations, then it would add credibility that she didn't do this out of the blue. Plus, if the psychologist saw the bruises, it could count as eye witness testimony.

bruh, it's a game where you're a simple shape and you have to dodge obstacles in the form of other simple shapes. It's kind of like flappy bird but less mundane and stupid.

Oh shit, are you too young to know what Flappy Bird was?

ain't no way bro did geometry dash like that

What if you win my PRX giveaway though?

Of course. Allegations should be taken seriously, but should not be taken as fact either until supported with irrefutable evidence.

Please look at this page and tell me where furia's 4th win went for split 2, because it says Furia only got 3 wins in the 2nd split. Of those 3 wins, one was against mibr, the other winless split 1 team. Furia didn't qualify because they won only 3 games, one of which was against the mibr who only got 1 pointless win at the end of the regular season. Stop coping and capping about Furia.

VCT gives the game a big enough image online, alongside independent content creators and creators signed to orgs who ACTUALLY INVEST into content creation.

And riot is already giving orgs an alternative source of income. Riot is now giving teams that didn't even make champs a portion of the champs bundle! In other words, based on projections, Riot could be giving orgs upwards of $200k FOR GOING WINLESS.

Like I said at the start, stop crying. There is a new source of revenue to balance the loss of the old stipend, and it's a lot more fair.

No, my name isn't MrBeast

First of all, my name isn't Leo. If you want to play this game, I can start referring to you as Fillipe Martins.

Secondly, teteuw may have millions of views, but how many of those are views from people who don't play valorant and will now play it, and of that number, how many will actually buy skins? Let's say on average players are willing to spend $20 on skins. Did teteuw generate 20,000 new players who bought $20 of skins? I don't think so.

Riot cut the stipend, but gave teams their own bundle. As an org, you should actually invest into having a likable team that will sell bundles! Additionally, Riot is now going to even give teams that don't make champs a portion of the champs bundle. So that is already a recovery of part of the 400k lost.

Why should Riot give more money to orgs who don't care to the point that two teams went WINLESS in split 1 of this year? Do you think that two winless teams are going to motivate people to make purchases? Please stop being silly.
