man owning a law firm seems like the most ridiculous moneymaking plan how do u bill out at $135/h i bet u only make like $40/h

That is how much we charge clients for my time. Our attorneys bill out at $215 or $295, depending. That is literally the only way we make money, so it has to cover everything, from rent, malpractice and health insurance.

And I take home a fraction of that amount, of course. I don't bill out a lot, because my job is to clear out attorney time so they can bill out for all their time in the office.

I mean if someone is meaningfully behind in CS, they'll lose regardless of the rule, so all it does is forcibly end close matches.

i mean it also changes the balance of asymmetrical power curves

your idea of "nuances of lategame 1v1" is completely opaque to me because you still haven't laid out your full preferred ruleset

a concrete example of such a nuance would be nice

A big firm like Ropes and Gray pull bills out at like $300-$450 an hour and there is literally no paralegal time. But they lock their junior attorneys in basements for 5 years doing legal research and writing briefs.

Edit: ok 2nd dumbest, dumbest is first tower because of how easy it is to cheese 1st tower.

I think it is only there to keep the games short cause honestly who gives that much of a fuck
