17:00 Gaming houses get a bad rap
18:15 Max explains the difference in skill profile between RWF, MDI, and PvP

27:55 What a RL should say to support players getting reemed by Twitch chat
28:35 Limit’s unique guild mindset

32:35 How the RWF is like speed running
33:45 How Echo’s culture is different than Limit’s
35:35 If Max is tilted, the pull will fail. That’s a different person in each guild.

51:00 Max thinks echo chambers are dangerous
52:45 Conflict is essential in high performance teams
55:30 RESETTING BETWEEN PULLS
59:45 Consistent breaks between pulls

1:03:05 FFXIV has different raiding culture than wow
1:05:00 We don’t want to be the guild that sleeps and then the boss dies
1:05:10 Why we stopped chain pulling

1:13:05 When should, or how should, we take improvisational breaks?
1:16:10 Identify why you need a break, and tailor the break to fit it
1:17:25 Swedish Female Soccer and Esport Injuries
1:21:00 You can raid with a teammate for years and never know them
1:22:05 Team Building means getting to the point where you would bench yourself for being bad before hiding your mistake to protect yourself
1:24:00 Should we walk to the venue? Why were the morning pulls better when we walked to the venue?
1:29:00 Reaction speed is not as important in wow
1:30:45 Does sleep help motor learning?
