    “Bronze ranked” I get that he’s a criminal, but they didn’t have to do him dirty like that.

    Looking at potentially 110 years which will be decided in a separate sentencing hearing, keep pitch forks at the ready just in case they commute his sentence or some other shenanigans.

          Alternatively, get good, consistently win games against people who are worse, stop coping and you’ll get to the rank you deserve.

          There is no such thing as elo hell, if you’re consistently outperforming your direct opponent you will win more games than you lose against people of your MMR and you will climb. “Elo hell” is just a coping mechanism for people who can’t admit they’re bad

            Relax, bro it was a joke, this isn’t a real league of legends discussion. Forget all that complicated stuff and just stack bloodthirsters on Draven all day every day.

        Did he tho? He looks like the fall guy for all the fraud you see happening and he’s not the master mind but rather just a pawn in the game.

        The people who are truly responsible for this are still walking.

        It’s clear SBF is just a publicity stunt to make sure the poors don’t revolt.

          I’m unclear about the Fraud charges.

          In a Fraud case, you deliberately set out to take other people’s money, illegally, from the offset.

          I don’t think he did that. I think his intentions were honest but he got too cocky by providing loans and overspending. However, I feel that he thought he was smart enough to make it all back and make good, like Nick Leeson.

          I don’t think he set out to be a crook. I think he set out to be extremely wealthy, thought he was smarter than he was, then couldn’t cope when things started to collapse.

          It’s different from setting out to craft a scheme to rob people.

        Meh, less if he catches covid and serves the rest of his term on house arrest, otherwise I’m betting on life in prison.

      They won’t be. Like everything else it will be swept under the rug to never be dealt with. In fact they will nuke the world before they ever relinquish their power. Letting it squeeze would not only make their enemies (poor people) powerful, but it will also overturn their power and wealth. They will never willingly let it happen which is why they drop nukes on us before then.
