TLDR - trying to decide whether to continue going with independent action with Mason LLP or join the main settlement. Looking for information or input.

There's been a $360m settlement in the RealPage lawsuit. I signed up with a different legal firm, Mason LLP, which will pursue direct action en masse for consumers against RealPage-using landlords. They claim that this is likely to get a higher payment than the settlement. The tradeoff is that this requires opting out of the main settlement, so I'm not guaranteed to get anything, and Mason LLP take 40% of whatever payout I do get after costs. Right now I'm signed up with Mason LLP but can still opt out.

Some additional factors:

• Mason LLP appears to be perfectly legit, and has been reasonably good about communicating with me about this, so I think it's a question of strategy more than anything else.
• I believe companies are liable for triple damages for cases like this, so there's a case to be made that I should be owed $1000s, given a 3x payment for even 5 or 10% of illegal rent inflation over several years.
• The settlement class is in the millions of people, so it's possible the payout will be low.
• My lease does have an arbitration agreement (in addition copy paste bullshit about a pool despite there being no pool) so that is probably a bad sign for getting higher end damages.
• Presumably our current rightwing government makes it harder to get any damages? I'm not sure though.

So, does anyone have information on if this independent strategy has been successful in the past or advice on this?

I know it's supposed to be a good matchup but I have mental block. EQ has huge range and I get outtraded by it constantly early game. She also usually builds full movespeed incl movespeed shard which makes hitting stuff in lane really hard. After laning Xerath outranges cleanly and beats her but I get destroyed before that.

Title. Loaded in with my brothers in a default trampler by accident, so we decided to rat it out. Had a mildly eventful run although we were about to ambush another trampler when they got orbital striked, which was a bad omen. We got out of there and were waiting at the extract when it opened up. Then our two best boxes disappeared into thin air. This is in US central(?) server. My brother clipped it, I can find get that from him if anyone cares.

It's just really frustrating - partly because it wasn't even a ton of loot. I cba playing a game like this. -$25, oops.
