Scott Kuehn (@SeismicWhite), a senior-level designer and environment artist at id Software who worked on the DOOM franchise, shared his work-in-progress 4v4 map for Deadlock called Harbor.

The map features two lanes with a central lighthouse that illuminates the vault, and after one minute when the ethereal hand descends, it opens to reveal a large number of souls to claim and fight over.

I enjoy watching the Kansas City Chiefs play football. They are my favorite NFL team.

When they score a touchdown, I think to myself, "yes."

When the other team scores a touchdown, I think to myself, "no."

I don't usually celebrate album anniversaries. I have a hard time perceiving the past. I like now, and what's to come. But this album, that turns 20 today, changed my life. I'd had success already, but everything clicked into place on this album. I met some of the greatest musicians and engineers in the world and learned so much about making records from them. When I think back on what made the album so special, some thoughts come to mind, and they're worth my remembering: Life came into the room. I rode bikes on the beach. I was goofy - most of the images from these years are of me doing something wacky. The record took time. Months of writing, giving up on lots of songs, writing new ones, moving studios, taking breaks. As I get older l tend to expect results faster. I get frustrated a little easier. But it's always been the same; you work weeks and months on songs. Some don't make it, but it's never a waste of time. You live more life, you write more songs, and the process starts again. You cherish the tight little list of tunes that matter. When just one joins the ranks, it's a blessing. Joy wins out over discouragement. You have fun with your friends, who are all on the journey of exploring the unknown with you. Great albums are built in layers. You have to become different versions of yourself to create a lasting body of work. Nobody cares how long it takes if the music is meaningful. If you want to make something truly special, you have to bring talented people in the room to contribute. Steve and Pino. Chad Franscoviak and Joe Furla engineering along with Don Smith and Dave O'Brien. Martin Pradler editing vocals. René Martinez handing me the guitar. Ricky Peterson on keys, @jamesbvalentine played some guitar on Stop This Train. Larry Goldings played B3 and @aliciakeys sang backgrounds on Gravity. Roy Hargrove played trumpet.
Charlie Hunter played on In Repair. @BenHarper played slide guitar on Belief. Willie Weeks played bass with Pino on I Don't Trust Myself With Loving You. The right music with the right people at the right time in my life. That's all you can ever hope for. And thank YOU, dear reader, for giving life to these songs. Onward...

Two Shutter Island caliber plot twists in four minutes. This deserves an Oscar

This Marvel Tokon game’s menus are barely able to open on my PC, on a pretty top of the line system. Until I get into a match or training mode, it basically wants to melt my PC.

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@AviaanFGC Glad he came out. Played casuals with people, hung out and was asking questions about the game, trying to learn, shouting out our local stream on his stream a few times. And he had a good showing in bracket. Good dude.

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@Zeroxy_ Wild, that was my high school. I’ll find a way to report it.

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@nothingxs @TKC_RobbieV @Evo I’m happy to discuss over discord. I DO want to be clear, this was a bummer, but I love evo and I know everyone generally is just doing their best that runs the event. I just wish it was handled differently. I can give you more of my side on discord.

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@nothingxs @TKC_RobbieV @Evo I mean I know you will simply never believe me, but both I and 8 other can attest, my tag was never called at that pool.

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@vitaro_ssj @TKC_RobbieV @jchensor @nothingxs @Evo Figured it out already, was already DQ’d by the time they got to my match, that’s why I wasn’t called. I’m happy to talk about the situation more in detail, but basically it was a combination of me not making sure the Ref knew I was standing there and they not calling my tag.

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@vitaro_ssj @jchensor @nothingxs @TKC_RobbieV @Evo Didn’t know they would/could text me, phone was in bag so it wasn’t in my pocket under my leverless when I sat down. Both I and 8 friends were there 5-10 min before the pool started to an hour later when I was DQ’d. Could’ve been pestering the ref I guess. Could’ve called my tag.

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@TommyToledoFGC Even as someone who had a poor experience this year, I generally think the staff does a fantastic job and I love evo, and will be coming back. Some mistakes get made, but overall it’s good people doing their best to run a great event.

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@rtm_pete @TKC_RobbieV Dm me

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@rtm_pete @TKC_RobbieV Tag is Kaytuesso, I was the player, day 2 pools. feel free to DM me for any details.

[Jared Jacobsen @Kaytuesso_]

@massi4h @vitaro_ssj @nothingxs @TKC_RobbieV @Evo That’s the thing, my match was at the very end of the first round, and early in the round they were calling tags. Idk when they switched over, but I certainly was not listening for match numbers, I didn’t even know those were a thing until they told me that’s what they had called
