Southern lurker here. I might be wrong, but it seems posts on the NI subreddit tend to favour (heavily) one political side over the other. Any particular reason for this?
Not asking what your affiliation is, just why one side seems less well represented.
"Starting from the 2020 Winter season, the teams in the league will be able to keep the players with Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Algeria, Morocco, Iraq, Qatar, Lebanon, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, Oman and Jordan passports as local players. Details article "

interesting, it seems like the MENA region is merging with Turkey, i'm not sure how this is going to affect the region, is it going to still be named "Turkish Championship League" or what will it be named now?
Really curious to see how this pans out
the victim blaming is astounding
Two oil tankers have been attacked in the Gulf of Oman. The US have accused Iran of the attacks, which Iran dispute.
In the mean time, the UK have joined the US in this accusation... except for Jeremy Corbyn who has questioned whether there is credible evidence.
What is the evidence to support and contradict the accusation that Iran is responsible for the attacks? Is there any evidence that the attack was perpetrated by, or within the capabilities of, another party? Regardless of who was responsible, for what reasons would someone want to attack commercial shipping in this area?
In my opinion, Stadia was never intended to compete for the hardcore market share. It was never going to convert gamers who have the latest console or a good gaming PC and already own the latest games. Instead, it's trying to capture a corner of the market that no one else is courting: former gamers (or people interested in a premium gaming experience) that no longer have the time, money, or inclination to keep buying the latest console or continuing to upgrade their gaming PC.
I fall into that category. At one point, when I was single, I wouldn't hesitate to drop $1500 a year to upgrade my PC. I would regularly buy 3-4 games a month, and I could game 20 hours a week or more. Fast forward to today, and I'm a father with a demanding career. I'll be lucky if I can squeeze in an hour of gaming a day. And yet I still love gaming, and I'm not casual enough to be satisfied with mobile games. So when I saw what Stadia was offering, I jumped at the chance to try it.
So far, my experience with it has been excellent. The technology works great, there is no perceptible latency or lag, and being able to game while laying in bed next to my wife, or sitting on the toilet, is awesome. The cost per month is less than what I pay for Netflix, and for that I get 2 free games a month, playing at 1080p/60fps or greater, with console quality graphics or better, that I can play on basically all the devices that I already own. And I essentially won't ever have to buy a new console or computer ever again. To me that's a pretty great deal, and one that only improves in value over time. I'm very happy with what I get for the price that I pay. I understand that there are people out there who desire more than that, or who may have already spent money on hardware and games that offer a similar or better experience than Stadia offers, but for people like me (and at least 3 of my friends, all of whom have ordered the Premiere Edition), this is an incredible product that fulfills a need in a way that no other platform can.
I think once the platform matures and word of mouth spreads, Google is going to surprise a lot of people by just how many "casuals" like me it can pull out of the woodwork. It's not going to win over hardcore gamers, but it doesn't have to to be a success.
Weβve had few polls on demographics but itβs interesting to see the age breakdown of the redditors. Speaks of the generational issues they are facing.
Hello, UI/UX Design student here, we're currently creating a roguelite game! To better understand the audience for these games in terms of age and gender I'd like to gather some data from Reddit and other similar forums where people talk about the roguelite genre or popular titles in the genre. Thank you in advance for filling it in! :)
I am an avid follower of sports and I searched for NFL news today. The only headline I see across every news source is about the first black female referee being hired in the NFL. There have been black referees and there have been female referees. But they make a huge deal out of the first black female referee. As a society how are we supposed to move past prejudices if the media constantly talks about these things? I am all for diversity and I think it makes us stronger. But this should not be news. Race is a social construct and our DNA as humans does not differ depending on what part of the planet our ancestors are from. We need to stop constantly talking about different demographics in this way or the rift between people who are different will never go away.
TL;DR - When we stop talking about race it will cease to exist
UPDATE: Survey results are out! You can read them here: https://imgur.com/a/X6iR4WE
Hi! I like to create surveys in my spare time and turn them into cool info graphics such as the Fire Emblem survey I did a while ago.
This time I wanted to approach the League player base and ask them a lot of questions to get to know the demographics. Questions pertaining to how long you've played league, which is your favourite role, how easily do you tilt, do you play ranked etc.
The results will be posted maybe a month later, it depends on how long it takes for me to create the info graphic. I'm aiming to group the results so that I can create a profile for each role and how they usually act etc.
The survey will take around 10-15 minutes to complete. Thank you so much!
Or have we not tested enough people, well enough?
