ranked playoffs season 8 predictions. I didn't say this on twitter, but I MIGHT not be right about all of these.

Congratulations to Oxidiot for winning drAAft in a bizarre turn of events involving coming back to life with a totem after losing to CroPro in semifinals! Thank you to all our players for participating. We hope to see you again for the next drAAft tournament!

drAAft's final three matches start in 11 hours! hope to see you there <3

when you're furiously writing down draaft player intros

one week ago: oh hey, snow in mid-april, that’s cool today: think it’s time to turn the A/C on…

Happy ghasts 🤍 #Minecraft #MinecraftLIVE

if I keep getting 45 second AA pbs every day for the next year I will eventually get world record right

deeply addicted to Ark Nova nobody told me a board game could have me feeling withdrawal symptoms

where is my buried treasure, mojang. where is it I boated very far for this I want answers www.twitch.tv/folderbot/cl...

Finished Roadside Picnic today. Super not what I expected but overall a really cool science fiction story, has aged pretty well.

I never would have thought it possible for me to have undying loyalty to a store but at least in the North American context Costco seems to come almost miraculously close to perfection

before it's way too late time to post ranked predictions. 3/4 on day 1 + 4/4 on pick predictions

Apologies for the delay, but new sodium should fix f3+f lag (unless you configure it to add it back in, I guess). thanks Jojoe & video explaining the settings here - youtu.be/0Xy75PnA-BA

Think it’s finally time to stop using this 50+ (??) year-old scrabble letter bag… when it’s more tape than bag, you know it’s probably over.

Finished a 3000 piece puzzle today. Through hours of work, many trials and confusions, we used the power of teamwork to achieve something unthought of weeks prior, and learned a very valuable lesson: no more 3000 piece puzzles.

Fascinating Christmas gift this year: fully wired earbuds that connect via lightning port… but work ONLY OVER BLUETOOTH. They send a pairing request when you plug them in, and from what we can tell, have a Bluetooth antenna… in the plug casing?! They also pair as “Baets earbuds” (lol).

To rewrite the query language in C++, or to relax on vacation, such is the question… well, of course, I would always properly relax (said while surreptitiously pulling out NeoVim from a binder)

MCSR Ranked - Year of 2024, Made by @desktopfolder.bsky.social ! 😄

MCSR Ranked - Year of 2024, individual leaderboards! (Or: "Ranked Wrapped, 2/2")

MCSR Ranked - Year of 2024, community/overall statistics :) (Or: "Ranked Wrapped, part 1/2")

making ranked stats graphics at 1am VS packing for flight the next day, which would win?

whew, probably should have focused on packing but we have some brand new stats leaderboards commands (& a bit more stuff prepped for a Ranked end-of-year graphic) - here are the top 10 players by average stronghold entry. (now excluding 10%+ forfeit rate, and <100 games played)

starting to think writing my entire query language/runtime/""database"" in pure python might not have been the best decision

added median to the ranked query language. fastest median completion time this season (100+ completions) is Doogile at 9:48. (Doogile also has the fastest average completion time, 9:58 -- also, currently the only 100+ completions player with sub10 average this season)

stats are fun... but also concerning sometimes... that's a lot more streams than I expected... send help

Things are looking good for a mid-term f3f lag fix. Potentially with general chunk loading improvements. Shoutout tildejustin for doing code review. MCSR has better code practices than most startups, actually.

need to use isEven for a project but all the libraries are in python and typing all that code into my own method would take ages so instead i came up with a much smaller solution in java:

Added the option for my Twitch bot to autotranslate all messages it sends to French. It's kind of crazy that this only took around an hour? Technology is so cool. (Used libretranslate, so it's all done locally, too)

mcsr moves to bluesky => easy 1.16 pbs, this was the answer all along

Okay - "floating point story" time. One of the weirdest bugs I've ever encountered was while working on this (www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTRj...) video. Xyor and I (mostly Xyor, my intellectual contribution was low) had spent 6+ months developing this machine, & tested it extensively (500k+ blocks).

yep, that's me

OH: "Protobufs? Eurghh."

More Playoffs please

+1 mildly-less-disturbing any% pb, back to playing all advancements

oh yeah, we made Bad Apple in Minecraft terrain generation (Klinbee did most of the hard work though) www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN3Q...

Surely the entirety of MCSR will move to Bluesky today and I will be free to stop checking Twitter for fear of missing a world record, right?

funny (although unsurprising) that the biggest marketing push for BlueSky is... Twitter getting worse. at least more people moving here is probably a positive

My initial reaction when people started using my poorly-thought-out query APL: Oh, this is super cool! My reaction now that I'm properly realizing just how horrible and buggy it is: I may have committed an atrocity!
