The score is interesting. Essentially its one of those experiement for venture capitalists to try and solve the monetization of newspaper practice in the internet age(in this case via mobile apps). They are pretty much running on a negative balance sheet in the last couple year and willing to take risks. Esports happen to be in a niche spot for them to invest in right now but i bet if the user numbers doesnt bloom almost immediately, the project wont be able to wait for long time growth to kick in before it run out of money. I dont really read LoL contents so I have a hard time judging whether their contents are any good or not but dota2 contents are pretty lackluster, rushed and written by mercs for hired.

is that some (or most) people are so fucking conservative, like if you do or ask for something slightly not commonly done or seen people get freaked out or they don't want to relate themselves to it. Which is fine in daily life (just dont me started on the clubbing scene) but now that I am merely asking for something simple they have lots of bullcrap behind etc

interesting. my experience was that people in cambridge, like the south of england are rather less friendly more into smalltalk, compared to people in the north

lol it is actually related.
it depends on the people who i am dealing in daily tbh while these are all medical/healthcare related personnel.
If FB lives close to me i would just harass him to get me what i want.
+ Show Spoiler +I just need a bloody basic body health check for my new job (literally just a couple lines from a doctor saying that i am well and all) but they wouldn't do it because it is unheard of giving such thing to anyone, because apparently in England a standard 'medical certificate of fitness' in related to occupational health check costs £120 that usually only taxi drivers need it or when you are above 50years old

ireland/scotland are chill on most stuffs in almost everything, including something that are foreign to them (at the very least they won't go against them) as soon as the person is not from the old old generation. And since this is Cambridge the uni town so it is probably the most conservative region in south england, the local council is rather closed minded etc, people here dress well and well spoken and not getting drunk often and rather snobbish.
On the young man related note (because we are yound and (dota) players cough), pulling a local girl here is ultra hard as a foreigner so you best go to foreigners' clubs (mind you there arent many clubs to begin with over here) or go in london instead.

Sweden has a pretty cool sceneshow in this years Eurovision song contest.

Don't think the song is amazing but the scene play makes up for it
Edit: he's very open with him being inspired if you've seen similar before

I went to England to visit my gf while she was studying abroad. I loved it there. I'm not sure exactly where Cambridge is but I stayed in central London, since she went to Regents University.
we also spent a weekend in Wales..that place was super beautiful. Cardiff castle was dope. and millennium stadium was awesome.
