Gilead needs to make sure women can’t potentially abort the Second Coming of Christ. After that, throw them in a meatgrinder for all they care.

My honest questions to you, no judgement...I just want to understand:

Single payer only exists in a few countries, the rest are a mix of government and private carriers. Doesn’t negate your point, but in an emotional debate such as this, it’s best to avoid easy attacks.

“The president’s job - and if someone sufficiently vain and stupid is picked he won’t realise this - is not to wield power, but to draw attention away from it.” — Douglas Adams

The reality is that games like this have extraordinarily high churn. In 30 days the majority of the user base cycles out, so wouldn’t have been around for the last fiasco. And for the few users they’ve retained, they’ve already proven that they’ll take it and keep playing, so their tantrums can be ignored if contained…

You keep saying “shifting to financials” as if that’s relevant to your hypothosis of a witch hunt. Shut the fuck up or come up with a new narrative. His ties to Russia and his financials are inextricably linked.

What does the narrative shifting to financials prove, exactly? It’s not mutually exclusive. And having an unwavering faith in being right in the face of actual facts isn’t virtue, it’s delusion.

You do understand that special investigations take YEARS, do you not? Mueller is charged with finding criminal misconduct, and it’s not a transparent process, like any criminal investigation. And yes, it will shift to financials because that’s usually where investigations of this type lead - “follow the money.” That…

They’ve been a shit show for a long time. Brands like Thrilling Adventure Hour pulled out because of quality and customer service concerns. The catbug vinyl toy saga was ridiculous. I can attest to the quality concerns - the shirt printing is awful, and quickly degrades. It’s about time Valve listened to their…

Have you ever heard Sophie’s first band, TheAudience? She took a detour after that to do a lot of dance records, but it sounds like she’s drifting back to that earlier sound.

Your counterpoint is based on a flawed premise - that “more” people want a show to stay the same. You have no quantitative data that your belief is true.

That’s exactly how I read it too. Glad that was not the case.

Including the US President? Most of them.

Glad someone posted a Curse of the Fatal Death gif. Patsy and Saffron as Doctor and companion!

I suggest not playing ANY freemium games, because that’s how they optimize their economies. What do you think soft-launches are for? Sure, they iterate on the game design somewhat, but figuring out user retention and revenue is the primary purpose. And with a small group of users with a geo-limited soft launch,…

Tell me why it’s borderline illegal. Believe me, AB testing software and services make sure that PII is not used in the cohort selection exactly to avoid those kind of legal quagmires.

How is that better? If I’m running an AB test on several price points for a consistent piece of IAP, I will know EXACTLY what the market will bear. Don’t confuse retail psychology with gambling psychology. Both are heavily in play in F2P games.

That’s where you are ABSOLUTELY wrong. There are a number of current and ex-mobile devs (including me) on this thread telling you we’ve been doing this for years and years. It’s not even new...this is straight out of the retail psychology textbooks. Hell, just google “retail psychology” and you’ll be wanting to burn…

Is Mike a mobile developer? No. This isn’t the kind of information mobile developers tend to openly share, because it’s shady as hell.
