It's cute hearing them be fascinated by a thing you can make at home easily with three ingredients they have in their pantries.

Part of it is that its loud but also now that iv lived away from the states for a while i find it obnoxiously cheery and high pitched. Also it does kind of make people sound dumber than they are

Maybe its just that a lot of the americans i see now are tourists so of course theyr more cheery and excited than usual

Things must be truly bleak if flour, eggs, and milk (or even water) are that lacking.

saw a few reddit posts complaining about huge mmr variance after recalibration

https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/8p9qht/sorry_valve_but_winning_or_losing_1k_mmr_in_just/
https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/8p765f/new_calibration_drop_from_63k_to_43k_insane/

someone in the comments of the second one thinks that the new calibration is based on unranked hidden mmr or your previous mmr during your initial calibration

I'm a bit miffed if that's true because I'm getting ancient players in my games here here and there...

after quitting for a long time I came back and calibrated at around 3.8k mmr and spent a couple months playing from there to hit 5.5k divine 5 and it's gonna be mildly annoying if all that gets washed away

edit: for reference, before the recalibration it was rare for me to even see divine 1's and 2's and I had an ancient 1 on my team yesterday. I'm like 4-4 in calibration games so far I think

Some guy went from 6.8k to 7.8k so it’s possible.

3-1 so far for me but I’m calibrating my smurf first because I haven’t really played in 3 months. It’s probably closer to my current skill anyway

heh welcome to the job ;-)

a rather obvious recommendation:
go around and ask if you can help anyone or if they can tell you sth about what ur supposed to to later or just if they want to tell you sth bout their current work

Pretend you care and take the initiative by asking if there's anything you can do. If there really is nothing left, at least you set a good first impression as the go-getter.
