It's only been a few years. Not everyone can churn out smash hits like clockwork, even if they are really talented. If he ever does create another big game, I'd expect it would be many years down the road, after he's…
I'm using Firefox and it kept crashing on me on about half the songs I tried.
If you don't feel like reading the link above, what the author is basically saying is that if a tournament structure is so badly designed that it sometimes incentivizes losing on purpose, then that's the fault of the…
Gotta disagree with your statement that extroverts all care about what people think of them. Just because someone is outgoing and energized by interpersonal interactions, it doesn't automatically mean they're a mindless…
