General Discussion for Virtual Youtubers / Vtubers / Chuubas - it's okay to be a simp for 2D, just don't thirstpost.

People don't get infinite chances, though. Yugo really needs to fix up.

In terms of vtubers, most don't but too many get more than enough chances or get away with stuff that would normally kill a career. Yugo though is definitely walking that fine line for debuting not that long ago.

Mahjong is a fun game and I personally find it quite relaxing - even though sometimes no amount of strategy can account for dire RNG.

Spoiler: Sperging about Mahjong

You are given 13 tiles, and your objective is to make 4 sets and 1 pair (generally speaking). So you can have [1-2-3], [4-5-6], [7-8-9], [4-4-4 of another suit] and then two blank white tiles, for example. If you've ever played Rummy, the playing card game, it's very similar to that where you build patterns.

Some patterns are worth more points than others, and MahjongSoul increases the odds of players drawing tiles that allow them to go for the really rare and exciting patterns, or creates scenarios where people get completely fucked over.

Each turn, everyone draws a tile from the Wall, and discards a tile in front of them as they build. The strategy comes from knowing what tiles other players are looking for based on what they're discarding, so you know what tiles are safe to discard. If you discard a tile that a person needs to win, they can declare 'Ron!', and the points their hand is worth is deducted from your Life Points and added to theirs. If their winning tile is pulled from the Wall, they declare 'Tsumo!' and the value of their hand is deducted evenly across the other three players and added to them.

Naturally, it is a game of trying to drain others of their points quickly and not giving them an opportunity to ruin your day. There are a lot more rules but that's the gist to understand what you're looking at on screen.

To answer your question more directly: there are 8 teams of 3, divided into two 'blocks' of 4. One member from each team will join a 4-player match for a total of three games per block. The total score of each member will be tallied and the top 2 teams proceed. So technically yes: you can fashion Mahjong into a team game like this, even though each match comes down to individual skill.

EDIT: I'm going to pull this clip out of the spoiler tag because holy shit it's the most unhinged Nina laugh ever.

I honestly didn't understand a word of what you're saying, never understood mahjong (or shogi) in any of the Yakuza games either. Maybe I'm just retarded or something.

Hey nijifag is it true that yugo is having breakdown?

I saw a tiny bit of the stream when it was live and had a really bad feeling about it from the bit I've seen. I'm not a drinker, but seeing that he was ten shots in super early on didn't exactly seem like a good sign. It feels pretty heartbreaking seeing them like this, whether it's the actual translation on Twitter, or what @Rratcatcher said; hopefully the whole situation can be figured out with as little loss as possible.

It's part of why I feel perfectly fine with LGBT people with genuine dysphoria, that are just minding their business and being happy with what they feel is their best selves. Likewise, it's also what pisses me off about trannies that casually transition because they feel like it, or because they're degenerate perverts that just want tits, or they wanna be attention whores that call for murdering "cis mayo monkeys". I can't think of any other time Yugo would even point to something like this, even in comparison to what I've seen of Uki (multiple occasions of him pretty much just going "look at me i'm gay lol".

Japan passes revised Penal Code with harsher punishment for cyberbullying​

Good luck to any JP anti that would like to seize the moment to shit on Yugo

Whole thing got spearheaded and absolutely blitzkrieged to fuck by Hana Kimura (popular joshi prowrestler)'s suicide, after antis and Terrace House (popular Japanese reality show) nutjobs cyberbullied her into killing herself. If you're curious what got them so upset, it's because Hana got mad at one of the hunks for accidentally shrinking/ruining the uniform she had her first Tokyo Dome show in, the Wrestle Kingdom (Japanese equivalent of Wrestlemania) that had a womens' match for the first time ever. If the antis wanna blame anyone for this, they should blame stans. War between antis and stans actually seems neat, nothing of value would really be lost.

The silver lining is that the EN fans don't really give much of a fuck about the RP and no native English speaker who watches Yugo is under any illusion that they're listening to a woman, so this only really hurts the JP fans who care more about people maintaining character.

This would be at least some sort of a bright side, if it didn't happen to the one EN member who's actually Japanese. Yugo seems to care a lot about JP, as visible from the Tokyo earthquake situation. I really do hope they can get some mental help, especially with how much of a taboo it is in Japan; didn't AC say they got an in-house psychiatrist after Holo's Aloe mess?

I didn't need to see this today, and now neither did you.

Get to work, Gura!

Speaking of 2k22, i just noticed I do not have animations for The Hurt Business, Retribution, or Imperium, and there's a glitch when i attempt a double team finisher where all three wrestlers clip awkwardly while T-POSING, then suddenly it ends with a guy on the floor. But hey, i gots the FaZe clothes!!!

Fix your shit, 2k.

considering that Connor's starting to become an insufferable asshole as of late.

What are you talking about? He has been an insufferable asshole all the time.

Look. I like Calli too, but I think she's being fucking stupid in associating with this particular (potential) Judas.

Everyone knows that but what the fuck can you do about it? Mori isn't known for having good eye on friends.

Speaking of Calli/Karen, Gigguk and Sydsnap just finished an IRL Twitch stream just now in Brighton and answered a question from chat about who got the most drunk at the wedding and they said Karen, who Sydsnap said was downing double whiskeys at the open bar and had to be helped back by the bride back to her room.

Par for the course for a wedding with an open bar, I'd say.

EDIT: 02:34:26 of the VOD (in case it doesn't clip at that spot)

Can't blame her, weddings are boring.

This picture lends support to the idea that Keeki was peeling large chunks of skin at the convention. she needs to learn to use sunscreen.

Pippa is a lefty though, just not part of the "sleepwalker" crowd. As for the whole "avoiding politics" thing, it's on part due to knowing that it will only alienate people. There are some opinions that are mostly accepted or not really frowned upon (most of them being lefty) but that's another issue. So far Pippa, Yuri, Lumi, and Tenma don't seem to belong to the sleepwalker crowd but they know that getting too political may alienate the viewers. Not too sure about Blonde, Trashbear and the 3 JPs.

Right hence why I said seemingly
the only reason we knows shes a sane (debatable) lefty is cause we do roommate stuffs and seemingly may as well be Nazi to the woke crowd also why i put emphasis on right leaning humor when talking about her later in the post

As for alienation yeah there is that risk no matter the side however 1 side will get it worse and retaliate give you one guess which

Gura finally put up a schedule. Looking forward to SNOT and her birthday stuff.

Also, Twitter is now suggesting senzawa when you look at Gura's Twitter page.

Japanese Niji fans are now calling NijiEN management garbage for letting Yugo do this in the first place. I personally think something like this should be expressed in a way that's not so humiliating for Yugo. Jesus Christ. I thought Mysta had issues, but this is just one step above. That's one of the cons of loose management, i guess.

How the fuck do they expect to manage a adult person, drinking streams are something common, if your talents says that they can take their booze with no problem you can't really stop them until it's too late.
Or are Japanese people now suddenly aware of the need for workplace psych counseling?

Here I thought the sperging on Gura being fat was peak gayness, enter pity posting for a troon. Who would've thought hiring people who are mentally unstable and "identify" as something would lead to drama.

Any luck we can get a 41% stream. In less faggoty news, Pomu is doing a members The Thing (the good one) watchalong in 3 hours.

Boy, I would like to introduce you to the world of VTubers, who are literally 70% menheras.

 

[Wnrite]

On the other hand I also hold quite a bit of respect for lefty roommates who keep their politics out of Vtubing eg Keekihime and Monkeyism (Kiara and Nina Kosaka)
Because i respect that they aren't taking the easy way to media fame choosing instead to work for their status

I think one of the funniest moments I remember from a Kiara stream was her talking finances. Paraphrasing for ease of not fully digging it up again.
"Yeah Austria takes a lot of money on taxes, I think almost like 50%"
"But it's ok though because I know that it's going to help people who really need the help"
*5 second pause*
"Even though when I was broke I never really got much help..."

Well that's awful, cause one of the benefits is the obviously looser management.
