If it only touches the hair, then not offside, from FIFA rules

The hair by itself is not considered a body part upon contact with the ball, so if the ball only touches the hair without any influence on the ball, it's not considered contact. That would mean no contact was made because the ball was simply "missed" by the head.

The referee/VAR was not prepared for the event because it's so rare. Hair alone would likely be enough to show the ball was touched by their sensors, but not illegal contact with the ball that would make it raise the offside rule.

Or we might be wrong about this interpretation. Right now I think it was a robbery. But maybe they'll have more data for everyone tomorrow that can show it touched more then his hair....

Couldn't solve the shipwreck door, I need to confess

Most importantly; I didn't notice the red light while stepping back and looking around. I do normally run with night light on and did have it off at times while looking at the puzzle, but maybe the LCD doesn't help either.

I misunderstood the sounds because I was only listening to the drops alone, I thought the other sounds were just there to obscure them to the point I was looking for options to disable/mask them.

I didn't learn the color theory at all previously where it occurred, I just did those with mathematics(?) after failing in forcing myself to solve the color elevator for around 3 hours through strictly color deductions.

The audio element really ramps it up into feeling like a potential pincode you can interpret wrong, it was definitely my weakest portion of the rest of the game. It creates a bit of contrast with every other puzzle type that can be solved by looking.

Jonathon Blow hurt my feelings and I want a refund because he made me feel stupid, and I don't like that, which can only mean that he's really the stupid one.

I've learned why I hated "Grind City" (Chapter 2) so much... It's because it's not a part of the original release

And I could tell. Having beaten the game 3 times in quick succession for the unlocks, chapter 2 was the only portion of the game I didn't want to replay again. I found it extremely strange how you're forced to do the challenge for Cube & Combo on every single playthrough, and why these two levels in particular felt so poor compared to the rest of the game. The enemies in the street level with the whip, or the verticality of Grind Square, and more.

Of course it turns out, these were added to make the game feel "less Japanese" and appeal to the Western markets. I eel robbed of what otherwise should've been a very curated experience with a great flow, as the game gradually scales the stakes introducing new obstacles to what you've already learned. I would feel inclined to now play the Japanese release if I ever revisit the game, it's not like you need to read the text.

I suppose I'm wondering how other people felt about it?

Lesson; Don't return to garage from the pause menu if you're already retrying a level for Jet rank

I was going for the Jet rank on all stages, hit only Nitro, picked retry, screwed up early, returned to garage to attempt to reset the level, and now the story has progressed because technically I beat the level. Now I need to cycle the entire story again. I died a little inside but I suppose it's a lesson everyone learns.

Force restarting the game entirely probably would've worked, since I don't think the game saves level completion until you visit a certain part of the menus in the garage again.

Eastern Shaft Key (TR4) broke the rule established by the other keys...

None of the other keys can be missed, you must pick them up to advance the game, so there's no vagueness.

I didn't even see the area over the gap while traversing the side of the pyramid, in fact I think I confused it with the first section which looks nearly identical, and a mix of thinking everything over there was all kind of scenery. Maybe the modern graphics played a role, and the view distance.

I've somehow went from thinking TR4 was the in the running for the best in the series by the end of Alexandria to thinking it was all garbage in the 2nd half waiting for it to finish. But after spending 2-3 hours reloading saves retreading how I got the other keys, I finally had to give up from frustration.

It was the only thing I had to look up but I already hated the game so much before that point that it hasn't really changed much. I had always intended to try and explain how much I hated the latter portion of the game long before this point, but now it's sadly focused on one point.

On a side note; I don't think I'll ever finish TR3 either. That game starts out great in India but once you can pick the levels it becomes awful. I've restarted that one probably 4 times at least over the years playing the levels in different orders. I got extremely close to unlocking the Antarctica portion once, think I was around 2 maps away in South America.

Anyway that's my rant/blog so I can move on with my life. I was able to find a few other search results for the same problem over the years, regards to those folks.

Potentially 4 of his 5 opponents will be from China if he was to go on and win, and Higgins probably being fatigued with age, tough matches and awkward rest times, I would expect Murphy to at least reach the final against Yize who should surely beat Allen.
