Doods

I've like not posted in a week. Not since me and my HFT friends celebrated the near death of US markets last week. It was nothing fancy. A bonfire of cash (TRUE WEALTH DESTRUCTION BABY). Sipping blood from the skulls of retailer investors who killed themselves. Urinating in each other's mouths. Basically the shit we do on days with an 'A' in them.

I went over to nerdriot and saw this madness. It's basically a crawler by ronmexicoz, a powerful shamanz with mighty nerd powers, jk web programming lol, that aggregates match results between top teams by comp on Ruin and bg9. I think it's a fucking sweet idea but I think that it's a bit too narrow in scope. It's hard to draw meaningful conclusions when some of the statistics are the result of a few matches. (And the set of total players is small, i.e is destro/ele/druid really that good or is the one team playing just outperforming?) Still I love the idea and it's the first solid analysis of "countercomping" I've, EVER, seen. (Instead of egotistical anecdotal BS)

I also see there's a dueling tourney going on. Sadly I'm too awful on mage to partcipate. I know because I managed to lose a few duels to total randoms outside IF. (Granted I was some bonkers DB spec...which I think would own if I wasn't so rusty but whatever) Kryoh, some pug shammy with a downie lisp who couldn't use skype, and I ran some double destro rshammy the other night which was pretty hilarious and ran into all kinds of freakshow TR only fun shit. (Tripple SP, tripple boomkin, tripple combat, etc) I haven't really played at all since a last minute s7 glad grind with Shift and Kryoh but TR is still fun as shit even if you're awful. (Maybe more so....) I like the idea of cash prize dueling tourneys -- I kind of wish that I set up something like this in the past -- I'll definitely consider it in the future. (Cata maybe?)

Beta opt-ins are starting up, so make sure you got that shit opted. I'm going to fist a dick if I don't get an invite early in the cycle because, well, I'm too pretty not to get picked first. And pretty >> talented any fucking day.

PS WHERE ARE YOU KACH YOU EUROFAG

PPS ME + KRYOH + PUG TR 2NITE (I'll be drunk and learning drooood)
