5·2 years agoImpressively enough, my algorithm seems to automatically filter out all the videos that my toddler watches. I never get them recommended, like it knows “hey, this is just a dad playing this for his kid to watch - we don’t need to recommend him Elmo.”

9·2 years agoI’m so nostalgic for it. I played it over and over on the SNES Mario All Stars cartridge.

3·2 years agoMaybe I click-baited you!
But in all seriousness, I go back and forth with putting anything in the body that I want people to read. I think it’s a separate click in some apps, because frequently people go straight to the comments and will ask about something that the body text answers.

17·2 years agoHaha, sorry - I just assumed everyone had heard of this wonderful nightmare! Like the other commenter said, it’s called “Getting Over It”. It has cool narration as you’re playing - you’ll fall down and then get a talk about overcoming failure.

9·2 years agoI used to when it was easier to watch it on streaming without ads… As soon as I set up a media server and acquire it somehow, I’ll be back in business!

4·2 years agoGood question!
The Tetris board is 10 x 20, while a chess board is only 8 x 8. Although if you ever place two chess boards next to each other by accident, you’ll have to buy another, so be careful.

Gaming@lemmy.world•Has also maintained an active playerbase for 1500+ yearsEnglish
12·2 years agoOh no, it’s completely free to play. What I meant was that when a game is over, the winning player gains rating points and the losing player loses rating points, proportional to the rating difference between them.
Since I had lost that game, I lost rating (elo) points. But, since the system recognized that it was against a cheater, which isn’t fair, it gave me the points back when they banned him so that my rating would be unaffected.

11·2 years agoIt’s the rating system for competitive gaming that was originally developed for chess, but has since been applied to all sorts of gaming, sports, etc. sometimes you might even hear people refer to a game’s matchmaking rating as “elo”, even it’s not called that.
Also, fun fact: it’s not an acronym, it’s a guy’s name:











Yes, it’s very respectful.
