Islam has all the answers as usual.

I don't see how making her more of a British stereotype is the answer.

Insert clever insult here
Can't believe that's a real military outfit. She looks like she's cosplaying in a homemade outfit.
It's not a military outfit. It's the official dress of the Crimean State Prosecutor. And she got the spot because she was the first member of the Ukrainian legal system willing to betray her country and work for the Russians instead, so they promoted her from a junior official to the public head honcho. But she's basically a glorified lawyer, not a soldier.

Also, that cancer indie guy is rubbish. He made a 2-hour "game" that in reality is pretty much just semi-interactive movie, and he claims it's Youtube and Twitch that ruined his business? Mega-lol.

CS:GO April Fools' Prank Has Cost Players Over $45,000
Posted on Friday, April 1 @ 11:58:42 PST by Jonathan_Leack



Today is April Fools' Day, and that means dozens of jokes and pranks have found their way online. As usual, most of them have been creative and witty leaving people with smiles on their faces. However, in one case people aren't so happy.

A popular YouTuber by the name McSkillet posted a video this morning sharing that the latest Counter-Strike: Global Offensive update now allows players to trade up 10 covert skins for a random knife. Given that some covert skins are valued at under $3, and virtually every knife is worth anywhere between $40 to thousands of dollars, it was natural that a large population of players began quickly purchasing covert skins.

What these people didn't realize is that the video was a prank, one that has caused thousands of players to spend money on previously undesirable virtual items through the Steam Marketplace.

The effects have been significant and can be seen in the surge in demand of several low cost covert skins, most notably the AUG Chamelon, Mac-10 Neon Rider, P90 Asiimov, and Galil Chatterbox. Within only five hours, tens of thousands of dollars have been invested in these skins, raising their price by anywhere between one to three dollars each.

One Reddit user by the name thesado has tracked market demand of each affected item, and has come to the conclusion that over $45,778 has been spent by CS:GO players due to the April Fool's video. That's only including five hours of market data, and there are sure to be more players who fall for the prank as the day goes on.

Players who have purchased 10 or more skins in an effort to trade up for a knife have been met by the reality that what McSkillet said wasn't true. Based on the value of the most affordable covert skins, the average pranked player spent around $13 to $15 due to the prank. Although they will be able to sell back their items to cut their losses (or keep the skins), so will most of the other pranked players. This will put them in a tough spot as they will lose 15% due to Valve's taxation of sold items, and will be effected by what is certain to be a plummet of each skin's value as thousands of players rush to dump them on the Steam Marketplace.

The best part of all is that it says at the end of the video that it's an April Fools' joke, and people still fell for it; a lot of people.

With that said, this should be taken as a reminder that today is April Fools', and you shouldn't believe everything you hear.

Idiots, idiots never change. This is as good as that time people thought spaghetti grew on trees.
