Everyone, welcome Boy3shooter to the panel. I don't know him because I don't pay attention to games on this site anymore, but that's beside the point.
He's a TV star, his KPG is 8.87. The icing on the cake here is that he records his notable game placements on his profile. A pretty sound record, right? WELL, he also happens to be the king of MANIPULATION. 3shooter has a recorded "1st place finishes" number of 50. Upon closer investigation of his profile, he only has 21 first place finishes in games that aren't the ever-merging survivor we have on this website.
You might be thinking " dmann, why does this matter at all? it's standard to include survivor merges in your win total because it's technically registered as a first place finish." You have a point, but the purpose of this blog is to expose what a #StrategicMastermind 3shooter actually is. We have another recorded stat on his profile: "Total Merges", of which he has 29. Clearly at this point numbers work out, the 29 merges + 21 game wins equal his recorded value of 50.
You might think that those categories are mutually exclusive because they're displayed as separate, but they aren't and he never said that they were. Nothing is wrong here, he's not a liar. He's just presenting information in a way that sells him as perhaps a better game player than he actually is. Iconic.
