My autism activation word was passed around the public square of the internet recently, and of course naturally, everyone seems to be completely wrong about the subject. So you know what that means: Effortpoasting Time 🧵
OK frens, some of you in the FPS / Gamedev community may have seen this poast on your timeline this past week (picrel). Or perhaps you've seen one of the hundreds of bait videos made by other people who also haven't read the paper. SBMM is one of those topics that seems to be a free money glitch for anyone in the gaming space... In any case! I feel like it's my duty to inform you The Reader on what this paper actually says about player behavior, and how SBMM actually factors into all of this.
If you haven't already, I highly suggest reading my previous thread covering the *original* implementation of SBMM, and the history of how it was iterated upon by Bungie:

thread will continue below, writing this poast by poast

@merchantHelios This is one of those things that are so obvious and self evident, only a university educated person would try to "study" it.
What will happen if Olympic athletes compete against middle-schoolers?
What will happen if we let men in women's sports?
Biggest "no shit, Sherlock" ever.
Good thread though.
