>>968461 Hey Moon would you have an insight as to why the Gold rooms in Mahjong Soul suddenly see an inversion of the ratio of players in East games to South games? The Bronze and Silver rooms favour East by a large margin but it seems the Gold rooms almost entirely swap that around
月
Yeah, I think right around gold room is the skill threshold where people start feeling like they have some control over their games, and prefer to have it longer and less random playing east is fun and it's quicker and lower-committal for the general feel-good of hand building and tile efficiency and stuff, but "fold to threats and wait for a good opportunity" is not very fitting when you each only have one dealer round and it's so short
the players who have really strong tile efficiency seem to like to grind in east too since they're playing statistical margins and those games are over faster south is more the patient and immersed players who want to see a full game out and have more enjoyment than people rushing 1k open hands and ending as fast as possible the east meta doesn't let you play in a very enjoyable way at a certain point
月
put another way, if people in silver played more south then a lot of them wouldn't be in silver and would have moved up to gold east is more newbie friendly and friendly towards casual noncompetitive play, since the "casual room" queue is a joke that nobody uses
Anno
I still like the East rooms South is a lot of time to devote to a game Plus with work at my job calming down a bit I've found I can sneak in a game or two, at least when I have my charge cable with me because the MS app burns through battery like a mother fucker Couldn't really do that with a South game
!C0.PerkELE
how does it go btw? south to east or? ie where a full game atarts and ends
月
i think the silver rooms might be local region only and gold rooms are global too but im not sure
Anno
>>968466 All Mahjong games start in East, and then, to simplify, each of the players get a turn playing the East seat If you're playing a South game, you then do another rotation of each player having a turn at the East seat So East is four hands (again, to simplify), and South is eight hands
!C0.PerkELE
so would a north game be longest then?
Anno
>>968467 I'm pretty sure all rooms are global Unless a lot of Chinese players have accounts on the global servers for whatever reason
月
>>968469 in older days there used to be west and north games but it's just east (half) or south (full) / tonpuusen or hanchan depending on the ruleset the game can go into west and north rounds if nobody has won by the end of south
Anno
Yeah Riichi Mahjong, the Japanese kind, plays almost exclusively East/South games Especially in formal situations or video games Casual games can be whatever the fuck players wanna play
月
>>968470 it might be that just the japan server has its own bronze/silver but then merges in gold with the other servers, simply due to the skill disparity since the average japanese player would probably be a lot more familiar with the game than a starting-out chinese/NA player for whom riichi mahjong is different from their rulesets
ive heard talk of such things but i do not know what is true

no they shouldn't i can't say i have any empirical evidence though
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
wikipedia says otherwise >Hypothetically, it is possible to recreate an entire ecosystem from the bottom up, in mirror form. >Reconstructing regular lifeforms in mirror-image form, using the mirror-image (chiral) reflection of their cellular components, could be achieved by substituting left-handed amino acids with right-handed ones, in order to create mirror reflections of all regular proteins. Analogously, we could get reflected sugars, DNA, etc., on which reflected enzymes would work perfectly. Finally we would get a normally functioning mirror reflection of a natural organism — a chiral counterpart organism. >Mirror animals would need to feed on reflected food, produced by reflected plants. Mirror viruses would not be able to attack natural cells, just as natural viruses would not be able to attack mirror cells. wouldn't that be insane
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>Mirror life presents potential dangers. For example, a chiral-mirror version of cyanobacteria, which only needs achiral nutrients and light for photosynthesis, could take over Earth's ecosystem due to lack of natural enemies, disturbing the bottom of the food chain by producing mirror versions of the required sugars. sweatFrog
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>Many meteorites contain carbon-based molecules including amino acids and sugars, which are just the right ingredients for life. Dworkin’s group analyzed the composition of these “organic” compounds in dozens of meteorites, and came to a surprising conclusion. Oftentimes both the left- and right-handed versions of, for example, an amino acid, were found in equal amounts—exactly what might be expected. But in many cases, one or more organic molecule was found with an excess of one hand, sometimes a very large excess.
>In each of those cases, and in every meteorite studied so far by other researchers in the field, the molecule in excess was the left-handed amino acid that is found exclusively in life on Earth. contamination or something stranger?

mhmm I know that experience kind of like being gaslit
/人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
except now there's good evidence via correlating stories to back up it// it up the people in change just don't care
Anno
Oh aand it's broke again Mother fucker
/人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
how long did that take 40 mins hmm wonder if you would look paranoid if you filmed that
Anno
Thankfully I wouldn't have to The thermostat has a touch screen that normally displays the immediately pertinent information on it, that when you touch it lights up and brings up the configuration When it breaks like it does the screen is completely blank, and doesn't react when prodded It's clearly not working when it's not working

>>969156 I'm hoping it's just exhaustion I get a bit hot when I'm tired
/人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
ah I suppose it's gone down maybe it just peaks
Anno
Another night of absolutely rotten sleep Maybe if these idiots can't get my thermostat fixed by tonight I should just shut my windows and live with the heat Because maybe that will be better than the intense humidity and noise pollution that comes in with them open

>>969155 That's not hot enough for the desert to live and breathe.

Anyways I basically make certain jokes compulsively and tththe ddedetdetiderivative integral one is one I used to do a lot so its sort of reflexive. >>969183 Yes
well, there's the vaxxpain, at least So it's probably doing its thing by now
I expect this isn't the worst it gets though, since I've seen people complain about it, and this isn't really worthy of complaining More just like, "yeah, there it is"

i was hung over when i had my second dose that was rough but manageable
S C
I guess the second dose is the big one? And obviously there's gonna be differences in reaction from different people
But right now, this is wholly just like, fine, but hurts like a real fucker when I move my shoulder, like it's the muscle that's in pain or something thank fuck it's my left shoulder, cause I sleep on my right
I wonder if they're gonna start making vaccines more tailored to the variants now

Now if only they'd translate the novels into English so I can read them But maybe it's better if they didn't They translated The Night is Short, Walk on Girl, and the translation wasn't really great But I know the novels are also proper Japanese novels too, not just easier-to-parse light novels So even with my attempts to learn Japanese it might be a long way off before I can read them
