Dear Mario Maker makers of 'expert' levels. If your level immediately kills me with no warning, your level is bad and you should feel bad.

Someone please make a way for @electronjs apps to run in WWAHost on Win10. Chromium is such a miserable pig. Plus, Store support!

Gamers Messed With The Steam Sale, Then Valve Changed The Rules

2014 Jun 24, 3:51

Applied game theory 101: Valve’s Steam Summer Sale involves a meta game with teams of Steam users competing for daily prizes. On Reddit the players join together to take turns winning daily. Valve gets wise and performs an existential attack, changing the rules to make it harder for players to want to coordinate.

Still, that all the players joined together to game the system gives me hope for humanity. Its a self organized solution to a tragedy of the commons problem. Only in this case the tragedy is by design and is updated to be more tragic.
