Did they? All I remember him doing, and all I can find him doing, is:

• Swear on Arthur's name
• Mention a Loxley who is quick/fast
• Use Excalibur
• One tiny hint that might actually give him away entirely, that I cannot point out specifically

In the credits he's also listed as "Seiba".

why is it dumb?

The dumb bit is them revealing his true name right away while the related anime's pre-release episode, which they're intentionally syncing up with, is putting in some effort to hide it. I'd wager plenty of people have not read FsF, although maybe I'm mistaken there. Additionally, FGO has shown that they already have the capability of not revealing true names until the time is right before, so it's not like this would've needed some crazy new tech.

As for your last paragraph, I was talking about this FsF Saber, not OG Saber.

And also token decks. If you already got tokens from elsewhere you can potentially just drop it for GG and be mana positive.

We have quite a few more Sabers that use red as a primary or secondary color in FGO. That being said, I'd recommend not looking into that because for some dumb reason they released this Saber a year ago for New Year's with his full name revealed and everything (actually coinciding with the preview release of this very episode).

Having read the FsF LN (as far as it is released, one volume missing still), I think Saber is one of the few servants in FsF where giving away their true name too early actually detracts from the experience a little.

The nomination phase has a few suggestions for you, based on what you played. But if you don't like them/want something else, there's a button for that. Now you'll know for next year.

It's two jokes. Firstly, "Barbarian" was a ancient Greek-"invented" term for people who don't speak Greek (or heavy dialects of Greek). The generally accepted theory is that "Barbar" is them imitating sounds they don't understand, similar to a modern "blabla". Secondly, Hercules is the Roman name for the Greek Heracles.

My uni had one. Sadly I couldn't fit it into my schedule because of overlaps and other requirements.

*With AI review :)

Y'shtola triggers.

Y'shtola's effect resolves.

As part of the resolution, Watcher leaves, then enters again.

Both Watcher abilities go on the stack, you decide the order.

a) The "leaves ability" returns the card that was previously exiled to your hand.

b) The Hideaway ability exiles a new card.

No matter the order of the abilities, the newly exiled card does not return to your hand and if nothing else happens, the end result is the same.

His beliefs are beauty, a desire to play with dolls, two kinds of shyness, servitude, rationality (that one, maybe), something (don't know her) and being a tsundere?

I'm not trying to be obtuse, but I really don't see it.

I kept up with the drama until about a week ago so what I'm saying here is the status from back then. Someone please add any new context if I'm missing any new developments:

From what it appeared, view counts dropped but ad revenue stayed the same. Even before this whole thing, YouTube pays out for ads watched (and clicked). Pay out was not dependent on raw view count for a long time, if ever.

This suspicious behavior of view count dropping but ad revenue staying the same is actually what tipped people off that the issue was adblock related. The fact that channels with a larger focus on a younger audience seeing less of a drop also helped.

Now those view counts dropping could still have an indirect, negative effect on ad revenue, if it, e.g. automatically leads to YouTube recommending their videos less prominently.

vegetarianism

Wait until they complain about finding a single seed in something advertised as seedless...

This is also sorta how RAW works (in DnD 5e), to quote the PHB:

Group Checks
When a number of individuals are trying to accomplish something as a group, the DM might ask for a group ability check. In such a situation, the characters who are skilled at a particular task help cover those who aren't.
To make a group ability check, everyone in the group makes the ability check. If at least half the group succeeds, the whole group succeeds. Otherwise, the group fails.

Taking the median roughly has the same effect, it only has a chance to differ if the number of successes and the number of failures are tied.

Another European here to chime in that l also learned to write capital As like that in cursive.

The rs, fs and ts don't look like how we were taught though.

I usually just go with 1.5 because adding half/subtracting a third is way easier to do in my head, and I'm not worried about a ~10% error in casual conversation.

I've been to multiple museums in Japan (which is somewhat relevant because Nintendo is Japanese) that either flat out ban all photography (e.g. Ghibli Museum, Aomori Museum of Modern Art) or have some exhibits that you're not allowed to take pictures of (e.g. Tokyo National Museum). One exhibit I wanted to take a picture of had a "no photography" sticker on it, but it was on the opposite side from where I approached so I didn't see it, causing staff to run up to me when I pulled out my phone to point out the sign.

I've also heard from other tourists that "no photos" seems to be rather common there.

Btw, I'm not at all saying that they're justified at all, just saying that there are indeed places that forbid photos for copyright reasons. In my opinion, no photo would ever match seeing the exhibits in person so it is entirely pointless to ban them. Even professional, official scans of pieces don't come close.

Me and all my friends all call them "Handys".

And to people not familar with English loanwords in German: Yes, the correct German pluralization ends with a "ys" and not as it would be correct in English: "ies". The same is true for "Hobbys" and "Babys", not sure if there are more.

You definitely bring it to the point here. "Can/Could" has two different meanings in this case (and many more generally).

Nobody can legally enter your house without permission. Vampires also additionally have a second restriction, they cannot physically enter your house without permission. A warrant removes the first restriction but not the second. A vampire policeman with a warrant can legally enter, but still not physically.

Most of the time the LLM version isn't the one there. It's "It's not only XXXX, it's YYYY."

Also I noticed I almost wrote exactly the same pattern as the one OP pointed out.

To showcase it, I prompted chatgpt to write me a few paragraphs on the importance of radio astronomy.

I already thought it somehow stopped doing that, but then, in the conclusion, it wrote:

In short, radio astronomy doesn’t just fill in the gaps of our cosmic knowledge—it opens entirely new windows into the universe.

Which follows the same pattern.

No clue. Wolfram Alpha interprets it as (10!!)!, so I assume !!! isn't an established operator, unlike the very unintuitive !!.
