GET YOURSELF SOME NEW BEER KOOZIES WITH c/cfb's INNAGURAL CFP BRACKET PREDICTION CONTEST!!! Details and bracket link inside in c/cfb@fanaticus.social
[–] MaroonMage@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I submitted mine this morning, and I have roughly 0% confidence in any of them. This season feels completely wide open with a lot of surprising teams hanging around late in the season.

Once the official first ranking comes out tonight, I'll submit my CFP 12 so everyone can laugh at it with me.

Edit: updating to show my predictions:

  1. Oregon
  2. Georgia
  3. Miami (FL)
  4. BYU
  5. Notre Dame
  6. Ohio State
  7. Texas
  8. Alabama
  9. Penn State
  10. SMU
  11. Texas A&M
  12. Boise State

That sound you just heard is another A&M defender missing a tackle. Also, huge congrats to Texas and Alabama for winning the bye week and each moving up four spots.

I kinda like it

Your computer usually isn't very kind to my Texas A&M Aggies...glad to see it's softening up on them some.

If the Longhorns and the Aggies both make it to Thanksgiving with only one loss, the hype is going to be unreal.

c/cfb Week 9 Poll in c/cfb@fanaticus.social
[–] MaroonMage@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Computer poll. It's stickier than I thought it would be: Georgia and Tennessee didn't rise too far, and Texas and Alabama didn't fall too far after their big games this week. Alabama still being ranked 11 with two losses has my bama bias crying foul, but my poll doesn't factor in name/conference recognition so that rank is coming purely from their resume (I have them as having played the 2nd hardest strength of schedule thus far).

c/cfb Week 8 Poll in c/cfb@fanaticus.social
[–] MaroonMage@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Hey everyone! Sorry for being silent the first half of this season...real life got in the way of football polling. But I'm back, and I've made some changes to my algorithm from last year. The overview/highlights:

  • Fully computer poll, based primarily on the ranking of your opponents and secondarily how much your margin of victory/defeat was
  • The full season is re-run each week with the current week's rankings. So if you beat a top-10 team in Week 1, but later in the season that top-10 team isn't ranked, then that win doesn't benefit your current ranking as much as it originally did
  • Poll is agnostic towards conference, pre-season rankings, weekly AP polls, etc. There aren't any name recognition bumps here, it's purely based on resume
  • The number in parenthesis after the team's name are the behind-the-scenes points that determines the ranking (on a scale from 1 to 134), so you can get an idea of how closely some teams are ranked to each other (an how much stronger Texas is than the next team)

But they didn't say that though?

They pointed out those countries also have jails/prisons that detain people against their will. That isn't the same as saying the systems are identical.

What are your plans for the weekend? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] MaroonMage@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It's my wife's birthday this weekend so we're going out with a bunch of friends. This is extra special because we scored a babysitter for our one-year-old, and we haven't really been out together much since he's been born. We're gonna go hard.

That, and Helldivers II, if the servers will let me in.

How Marvel Is Quietly Retooling Amid Superhero Fatigue in c/movies@lemmy.world
[–] MaroonMage@lemmy.world 24 points 8 months ago (2 children)

...though sources say that even before Majors’ conviction, the studio was making moves to minimize the character after Quantumania underperformed, grossing $476 million

Jonathan Majors-related stuff aside, this sentence makes me shake my head.

Why does it seem like Hollywood always takes the wrong lesson from box office results? Quantumania isn't well received, and instead of assuming it's because of the bad script or bad story or rushed CGI, their impulse is to retool their entire franchise to minimize a character? Especially a character who people were generally into (at that time, at least...again, Majors stuff aside).

People disliked Quantamania not because of Kang, people disliked it because it wasn't a good movie. Maybe if you tie good stories and good filmmaking to your multi-billion dollar franchise and stop plopping out half thought out turds, then people will go see your movie.

Nice to see that what should have been (in my opinion) the four playoff teams are the top four in our poll. I am curious what the poll would look like now after championship week is done.

This week's ballot. Computer poll, resume-based. The top two are basically interchangeable, then there's a huge drop after No 7 Alabama I'm surprised that Texas jumped Florida State, but that may change during championship week.

Looking for world map making recommendation (lemmy.world)
 

I'm finalizing my next campaign, and am looking around for an online tool to create a world map. I really just need to make one map (maybe two), so I'd prefer free to use or a small fee to get started.

I've googled around and found some options, but haven't found one that does exactly what I need. For example, some of my world map is on a plateau and some is lowlands, but that level of varying terrain elevation seems to be an advanced feature for a lot of programs.

I'm wondering if this community has any favorites to recommend. Thanks in advance!
