Ranked Fact Friday! There is no losers/winners queue! If it did exist we would have to know your true skill to put you into a "winners queue" but then we couldn't calculate other players' true skills because it would be affected by this. It's technically a matchmaking paradox!

Ranked Fact Friday! Matchmaking does not try to "make you have 50% winrate". As you play matches your MMR tells us your skill level. This means we can put you in matches at your skill level where you have a 50:50 chance to win. This naturally pushes you towards a 50% winrate!

We’re adding a new queue and making changes to Ranked overall during Season 6! Join Josh Menke for all the details!

Friend of mine made a card game that I've had fun playing with the family. Not hard to learn, but has enough depth that my oldest always beats me. kickstarter.com/projects/candy…

I finished building another Gundam plastic model kit. This is the MGEX Unicorn Gundam and it had a lighting kit.

We are intentionally keeping a close eye on this and will make adjustments as necessary.

It's been awhile, but I finished another kit. This is the Zero Gravity Judge. It's an indie 1/100 kit with a full inner metal frame. I believe the design is heavily inspired by the Forbidden Gundam.

The Backend Services Summit kicks off tomorrow! Samy Duc, Josh Menke and Chris Cobb will discuss the interesting dynamic of matchmaking systems and how a successful one requires a strong tech architecture that supports the specific game design goals.
