#148 ESEA's possible demise? in TF2 General Discussion
QuindalispaceghostpurrpCan we also talk about the fact that HALF of CEVO's prize pot was DONATED by a normal user? Is that sustainable? Will someone donate a thousand dollars out of their own pocket every season?
all league fees from S4 will be going towards S5's prize pot. with a conservative estimate of 60 teams x min 6 players x $15 = $5400. And that's a very conservative estimate.

I don't mean to take the wind of your sails but that is not a conservative estimate, that is a hopeful estimate. A conservative estimate would be the worst case scenario. That said I wish you the best of luck and hopefully you guys can do something big over the long term.

#117 Bill Nye/Ken Ham religion debate in Off Topic

@Marxist. I find you are using the term truth rather selfishly. Who are you to say there are two basic approaches to reality? Are you some all knowing person with a superior perception of reality than billions of people who commit their lives to a religion? How can someone know the truth by perception? Especially when perception can easily be manipulated? Churches have manipulated peoples perceptions for thousands of years.

It's very easy to oversimplify and misinterpret somebody else's beliefs. I agree with you on ideology, the question is what is life? Why did it happen? Did life just happen randomly or is there more to it than we know? Can you tell someone how life began? Can you take raw elements and create a living organism? Even if you could the likely hood of that happening on it's own is so low could it not justify a persons belief there was a creator?

As far as the Bill Nye thing goes... I didn't watch any of it. The religion debate has been going on for thousands of years. We really don't need more of it.

Where did I say anything about slavery at all? I didn't attack you in any way. All I said is people will believe whatever they want to believe in, you can get mad about it sure. They could very well be wrong... Sure. Doesn't mean everything you believe is right either.

shocka1pine_beetleWould you say there is an objective truth?
Yes... Why, yes I would. Have you ever heard of gravity? It is demonstrable. Jump in the air and feel the force that brings you back to the ground. Have your friends try it. Anyone can do it, even your pet. That's called an objective truth.
pine_beetleYou can't actually change what people believe and you can't tell them what they believe is wrong, because really... Nobody knows better than anyone else, it's a completely a matter of personal interpretation.
Wait, what? So you don't think we should have correct all the "scientific" errors people made in the past? *Earth is flat*-*Zeus shot thunderbolts down to create lightening*-*Earth is center of universe*

How about the moral/ethical stances from the past? You don't think we should have corrected those either? Since your stance is "You can't tell them what they believe is wrong..." - With that attitude, we would still have slavery, human sacrifice, animal sacrifice(even worse IMO), oppression of women, black people segregated and not being able to vote(+more), women not being able to vote, holy wars (we still have this), suppression of science/art/literature (we still have this), pro-life fanatics who are against condoms (this still happens)

Should I keep listing things, or do you want to change your stance on what we can or can't tell people in regards to how wrong they are in what they belief and why...

Keep listing things. Make yourself feel important. Either way I'm not going to tell anyone what you can or can't believe in. That's the type of behavior that people go to war about... Thanks for letting me know how gravity works by the way, really cleared up everything I feel like you really are an all knowing human, I should just put my beliefs aside for your vastly superior grasp of reality. Your objective truth is unquestionable!

#90 Bill Nye/Ken Ham religion debate in Off Topic
MarxistSo.... There's no objective truth? That's a pretty profound opinion you've got there :p

Would you say there is an objective truth? Belief and truth are not the same thing and religion is all about faith not science. It's the belief that we don't know all and never will. Is that wrong? You can say it's not true because of your own personal beliefs and use as many facts as you like, that doesn't really change anything. The only true understanding is when you accept the fact we only have a very limited understanding of anything. You can't actually change what people believe and you can't tell them what they believe is wrong, because really... Nobody knows better than anyone else, it's a completely a matter of personal interpretation.

lynapine_beetleThe only real problem with the erections lasting that long is if you're surrounded by children.
But why else would you have an erection then?

I could go into detail but would probably get defrocked from the catholic church! Sworn to secrecy by the pope himself!

I can't make that comparison. I used to use the deathadder and I'd go through one about every and a half. I got zowie ec evo 1 and it feels like exactly the same mouse but better and I haven't managed to break it in 2 years of abuse.

#8 Death of Quantic Gaming in Esports
Turinpine_beetleIt's really risky to start up sponsorship for competitive video games. It is a thankless monetary handout to people who really don't deserve it because they're not actually going to make you any money. It's either get lucky and go big or die a horrible death. I have no doubt Quantic had good intentions but at the end of the day it just didn't take off.Quantic's been around a while, not sure what you mean.

What I mean to say is sponsoring competitive video games is a foolish idea because it's just a thankless money sucking vortex of death and the fate of your company is almost completely determined by luck. Anyone with any good business sense would never do it, it should be no surprise you end up with weirdos.
