I don't see at all how those tweets complaining about you giving an exploitive free to play game access to your twitter "go well beyond irritation at single manufactured tweet. With Kardashian, it becomes personal." Was it the "boo" the "nah" or the "no thanks" where it got personal? You seem to really be reaching and seeing what you expect there to be rather than what is.

There is no way for them to go over every mechanic in every match. If you stick with it for a couple matches they will go over how lanes work, magic immunity, hex, experience, gold, buyback, towers, barracks, roshan, cheese, chain stuns, smokes, haste, bottle, runes, refresher, etc in one of the games. They have to cycle through the explanations or even people new to dota will get tired of it when they miss kills to explain wards for the 3rd time in the 3 game series. Especially when something happens like an Invoker pick and they have to try and explain how he has 10 skills. There just isn't enough time.

Also yes they are going to use dota terms. You are watching dota. They are also going to use nicknames sometimes because that is often what those heros/items/abilities are called by dota players/casters. How else are you supposed to learn those names?

Isn't Cards Against Humanity just a derivative clone of Apples to Apples?

I'd say so. I still like CAH but that's how I always describe it to people who have never heard of it.

Yeah, that's pretty much how I've described it as well. The premise behind CAH isn't new or innovative in any way. It has the reputation and fanbase that it does because it's loaded with crass absurdity. I mean, I enjoy the game as well, but mechanically, it's not an original concept.

Did any of you actually read the articles? The problem they had was not that 1024 and 2048 were derivative (most creative work builds on the work of others), but that they were released within a month of Three's being released. People were not aware that Three's was the original and journalists were not doing the basic research to inform them. There is no marketplace confusion between Apples to Apples and CAH. Temkin had every right to call out that journalist for being terrible at his job. The dude's excuse was that he just put up what a guy said to him in which case he should call himself a blogger and not a journalist.

The latest videos, comments, and search bar disappears when I try to go full screen (just from the red line up, the actual comments are still there). The video still plays.
