I said that there were no landslides for the victor in the last two decades. The last landslide was outside two decades.

Pardon by confusion, but again - what?

Oh yeah that's right, I'm a reference. I doubt they actually looked me up though but I'm glad I was of some help as a possibility then.

You gave my friend a reference.

Uh I wasn't aware I did something.

Oh hey I never got to thank you btw my friend got that job at didney whurl you were a big help

Yeah nah, some people just don't deserve it.

It's always worth it.

Yeah, but only when the person is worth it.

bruh
Hatefucking is great

I have no idea what she looks like but even if she was a qt, I repeat: not worth the hate-fuck.

Oh come on, you totally would.

But did the campaigns really die in such a way? It's not like our elections for the past two decades were run off landslides for the victor, they were all pretty neck & neck, the messages clearly resonated with a sizable number of people.

What is being exampled under a "political party autopsy" is why the candidate/message that the party is running during said election failed to resonate with voters that you needed to win. In 2008, the big question is how McCain lost states like Indiana, Virginia, and North Carolina. In 2012's case, it revolved around Romney's inability to resonate with the middle class workers in Wisconsin, Ohio, etc. Clinton's political autopsy also revolves around the same questions as Romney, also including the divide between moderates and progressives.

Autopsy is a poor choice of language, though I imagine it's used to describe the death of the campaign? It is not about the death of the party as a governing institution.

Wait is this actual tension or just "Kill yourself bruh haha" tension?

You don't remember the "Republican Party Autopsy"? It was literally everywhere.

Uh, what?

Downvote? You mean that red minus sign on the "more" section? People use that?

I've done a lot of shit tbh but desty just hates me because me, Ender and Nuka set up auto-downvoters on our computers then I showed everyone else how to do it and he ragequit his original profile and now shitposts from the disgusting dregs of his Alt.

Would you console a friend who failed an important test? I would.

Did that imperial fleet consist of solely capital ships defended by nothing else? I call bullshit because anything bigger than a corvette gets a hangar with TIE fighter squads and a TIE Bomber squad. Now if your fleet was nothing but B-Wings that would be slightly more believable but even then that's still far fetched.

I literally just went on FoC Galactic Conquest and put my starting tech level to 5, The Eclipse is nowhere available to purchase.

If people didn't go into ground combat with the same mindset as space combat they might not hate it vehemently so much. People just want to hold their base and maybe a mining depot for extra credits then get butt hurt when they're invaded because they're sitting on their ass teching up instead of pushing the enemy. The only broken unit I've ever come across in FoC is that Rebel tank with hit points and usually the thing is slow enough to bomb from orbit anyways.

Why would I care about whether or not it's in a competitive scene? Supreme Commander FA is my favorite RTS ever and it doesn't have a competitive scene. It's a fun game to play against your friends with, yeah there's better games out there (like Supreme Commander) but I'm defending EaW at the sole point that's it's better than that shit stain on the Halo franchise HW.

all of the ai was a joke, i won against an entire imperial fleet with nothing but a 4 xwings and 2 y wings

you could use it in galactic conquest and it made the game easy mode

the ground combat is a fucking joke, you're seriously the only person in the last decade that has called that portion of the game anything other than a dumpster fire. the balance in this game is so incredibly out of wack that it was never even considered for any kind of competitive scene and the fact that there are so many notable mods dedicated to trying to balance that mess of a game to make it fun (for something other than throwing around iconic star wars units) and challenging shows how poorly the game was designed.

fucking christ the fact that the consortium starts with tech level 5 and doesn't even need the black market to start fielding some of the best units in the game is really fucking stupid and in an mp gc you might as well not even bother playing if you're imps because all your shit is easy bribed and hacked which makes it impossible to defend your already nearly impossible to defend bases from consortium stealth attack s.

t. someone who played EaW since release

it's a terrible terrible game when it's not modded for anything other that derping around with the novelty of a star wars rts

I only played either Hard AIs or Multiplayer with other people before logging in became impossible.

Death Star is balanced by both R2/3PO and IG-88 (especially IG-88). Eclipse was never available outside campaign unless you modded the game.

There is literally nothing wrong with the ground maps. You're talking with someone who played EaW solely for years before I was able to muster up the money to get a computer that could play Supreme Commander.

you're smoking something real foul if you think fighting the braindead AI gives you any idea of how the balance in that game plays out.

eclipse and death star wreck shop in space

the shit maps and shit units make the ground combat a slog to play through. if you were to submit any of the EaW maps to lets say team liquid you'd be laughed out of the place.

>TFW I was NEET for a year and never suffered from Vitamin D deficiency.

I doubt NK will last for long in these conditions. Communism is self-defeating in nature, and the sanctions we have against NK will only speed up the government's collapse. Now it's just a waiting game on how prideful the ruling party is, took the USSR several decades after the fact to admit the system was shit, it'll be interesting to see how long it takes NK.

Honestly I don't see how it could really get much worse for the people of North Korea at this point, regardless of how much money is in the state coffers.
