Indian shooters in a spot after Olympic

Indian shooters in a spot after Olympic postponement

There can never be a perfect formula for choosing a winning team. It becomes more difficult for the Olympics.However, the NRAI almost finished the best possible team for the Tokyo Games two weeks ago. But before the chosen names were sealed, the Tokyo Games were postponed for a year.The shooting was the best medal bet in India over the last four Olympic Games. Last year was an exceptional game for Indian shooters, with three shooters ranked first in the world. India also impressed with its victory in 15 places for Tokyo, its best moments. With 21 golds, six silvers and three bronzes, India ranked first in archery in the ISSF ranking last year. For most holders of other Olympic sports, delaying means another year of training. For shooters, who earn the quota place for the country and not for themselves, an additional 365 days of uncertainty, insecurity and possibly excessive training.NRAI will have a hand in hand. They have to choose the perfect team for the 2021 games without compromising the safety of the archers.The federation can have two options: go ahead and announce the team based on the tests taken over the past 15 months, or continue testing for another year and wait to find the best archers right before the games.NRAI has not yet shared her plan with archers. Repeated attempts to obtain the views of the President of the Federation on the subject were futile.Whatever the NRAI option, it will not be the same.If they decide to go ahead with the first scenario, which is to select the team based on previous tests, they will have no control if the shooters run out of shape before the actual games.If they continue to test for another year, this means 27 months of continuous testing and the possibility of archers burning.Apurvi Chandela, who won the stakes in 2018, said he would keep shooters on hold by not announcing that the team would put too much pressure on them. "I feel that if the team is announced now, shooters can focus on the Olympic Games and train with only positive pressure," Apurvi told TOI."I agree that the current model is important, and to ensure that the chosen shooters are in good condition before the games, the federation can check the archers' performance, for example in December or January, if they do not find that." The performance of the archers is satisfactory, you can replace it with the following lead-in Arrangement. They will have time. "Abhishek Verma, who got the stake in the 10-meter pistol, also echoed, thinking about Apurvi. "In the past two years, prospects have won medals at most major events. There is nothing else they can prove next year," said Verma.Gagan Narang, former world bronze medalist and former London games, while supporting Apurvi and Abhishek reviews, feels that well-chosen archers should be watched and a set of reserve archers should be ready. "The main challenge is to always be able to choose the best" suitable "shooting game within a year in the hope that it will peak at the right time. We can only hope that the system will provide a fair opportunity for the best shooter to be the determinant."Read More: Coronavirus Pandemic Affects On Sports Events

Play it Safe: Online GamingOnline games are played on the Internet through a computer console, mobile device, or app. What makes it different from traditional games is the ability to play and communicate with other players online. Games can range from task/mission-based activities to sports games and anything in between. Online games can be a great way to communicate with people, develop teamwork skills, and of course, they are a source of entertainment for young people.Many of you will learn about the more traditional game formats where you buy physical games for popular consoles, such as Xbox, PlayStation, or Nintendo. What Types of Online Games Are There?There are many different forms of online games. These range from free games or applications that can be downloaded on mobile phones to games that can be played on consoles with Internet access, for example, PlayStation or Xbox.Games and web applications: Games that can be played on the Internet through specific websites, or through applications that can be downloaded to mobile phones. These types of games include games that are played through social media services, for example through Facebook, that allow players to communicate with friends.Console games - Games played with entertainment consoles, for example, Xbox, PlayStation, or Nintendo. The consoles are connected to televisions, and games can be bought in stores or downloaded online.Mobile games - Games that can be downloaded to your mobile phone. Many of them are free at first, but fees are often included in these games. For example, users can sometimes pay to get additional functionality to help them complete the game. In-game purchases can usually be disabled in users ’mobile settings.Portable gaming: Devices like iPads or Nintendo DSI also host online games. What Are the Risks of Online Gaming?Inappropriate content: Some online games may not be appropriate for your child's age and may contain violent or sexual images. All online games come with an age recommendation.

In multiplayer mode, users can play with other players from anywhere in the world. Some of these games allow users to send messages to each other through text or voice modes. In some cases, young players may experience online abuse/harassment from other players, especially when feelings are high after a competitive match.Players may be exposed to inappropriate player language, and in some cases, young people may be left open to unwanted contacts by sharing personal information through their profiles or by talking to other players.To avoid this, make sure your child's profile is private and encourage him not to use real pictures or full names of his game profile and not to share any personal information. It's also a good idea to allow your child to talk to you if he is uncomfortable or unsure of something he found while playing. Make sure your child knows how to prevent a player from sending spam.Pay-to-play - many online games are free to download. However, these games may provide additional features, once the game becomes life, which users can buy.

As Korea continues to regain its feet after facing the toughest Covid-19, Florida remains the United States' sporting savior. USA, planning UFC and golf activities within a week,Despite the fact that there are no signs of decreased coronavirus infection worldwide, some sports are trying to return. As Korea begins finding its feet after fighting the worst Covid-19, Florida continues to be the lifesaver of American sports, as it hosts UFC and golf events within a week.Do you miss the NBA playoffs and Major League Baseball? Well here are some tournaments from the Korean Baseball Organization (KBO).While Major League Baseball in the United States Continuing to think about plans for what to do in its own season, ESPN has signed a contract to broadcast six KBO games per week, starting with Tuesday's first game of the season betweenDaegu’s Samsung Lions and Changwon-based NC Dinos, which Dinos won 4-0.The country's professional football leagues will kick off on Friday without spectators attending the stadiums.As one of the first major professional sports competitions in the world to return to work in an epidemic, the Korean Baseball Organization has taken many precautions to create safe playing environments.Players and coaches will undergo a fever test before entering the stadiums, while the referees and first and third coaches must wear masks during matches. Players are prohibited from high-fiving their teammates or signing autographs. Chewing tobacco is banned to avoid spitting.Latex masks and gloves will be required at the training facilities. Gaming enthusiasts will be banned until KBO is convinced to reduce the risk of infection. If any member of the team is positive for the coronavirus at any time during the season, the league will be closed for at least three weeks.UFC 249On May 9, the UFC will return with UFC 249 and will be held in Jacksonville, Florida, at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in an enclosed space. This event will be very important for visualization and anatomy as it will be the first major promotional sporting event to return despite the fact that most of the world is still suffering from the effects of the Coronavirus. The UFC will likely show the world a plan for how events are organized in a world where Covid-19 has not yet appeared."In today's world, it's as safe as possible. We live in a new normal," said Donald Mozy, according to ESPN, who will be the chief ringside physician for the Florida State Boxing Commission at UFC 249.. We can do closed events, which limits the number of people. Those who work will exercise social distancing. "ESPN also said that once the fighters arrive or travel to Jacksonville, they will be tested for Covid-19, either for the diagnosis of coronavirus or for antibody tests. In an email assessed by ESPN, the UFC will examine fighters daily for Covid-19 symptoms and perform regular temperature checks.One of the fighters, Donald Cerrone, chose to drive his RV from Albuquerque, New Mexico to Jacksonville, Florida, and stay in the same RV, rather than staying in a hotel provided by the UFC.Rory returnsIndeed, Florida became the cradle of professional sports during the coronavirus pandemic. After letting the UFC work in the state and hosting three different events over a nine-day period, it will also offer a return to golf.World’s number one Rory McIlroy will play with Dustin Johnson, against Ricky Fowler and Matthew Woolfe in a $ 4 million skins game, which is fully supported by the PGA Tour and will be played without spectators.This will be the first time golf has returned since the players' championship was abandoned after the first round on March 12. The PGA Tour hopes to continue its programs from June 11onwards in Fort Worth, Texas, during the colonial event.Don't hold your horsesNext Monday, horse racing will return to France after its suspension from March 17. The French police authorized the holding of races at Paris Longchamp."We received strong support from the ministers in charge of racing, finance and agriculture, so the problem was at the local level which allowed us to move forward," said France Galop chief executive Olivier Delloye, according to BBC.Horse-racing has continued without spectators and social distancing protocols continued on certain tracks in the United States, Australia, and Hong Kong. But now, while allowing the French to broadcast events, Great Britain can do the same. British horse racing authority chief Nick Rust said the procedure could begin within a week of government approval.Read More: Sports events, Sports news

Enter the dragon, in black and white: China win Online Nations Cup

China beats USA in Online Nations Cup superfinal; Kasparov says new chess superpower has emerged.Around midnight in Beijing, Grandmaster Wei Yi  smiled sad when he killed his American opponent Fabiano Caruana, who was sitting at his beachfront home in Miami, where he was barely noon, a delightful confrontation with a skilled manoeuvre end-game. The win left the FIDE Online Nations Cup final closed to a 2-2 draw, despite the announcement by China of the winner as they won  the round-robin phase..The four Chinese Grandmasters—Yi, Ding Liren, Hou Yifan and Yu Yangyi—appeared briefly for a video conference on the ChessBase website, which was streamed live during the week-long tournament. In the live broadcast, their eyes looked asleep but radiant, the sounds seemed happy but asleep for everyone who followed them online. His American counterparts were sad and desperate, although Caruana later raised grief with a sense of humor.Bafflingly, despite increasing friction between the two countries, China's victory, or American defeat, has not been lost in political symbolism, classes, and interpretations. As when the Cold War broke out, the Soviet chess machine was intended to show mental and mathematical superiority over the decaying West. Here, even if you are dealing with the growing hostility to China by the Trump administration, the accusations and sanctions that have moved from the White House to Beijing in recent weeks have not been the threads of ideological victory or metaphors of global domination knit in China's victory. Despite all that, the context didn't jump out of the 64 squares on the board. There was no political speech."It is time to recognize China as a great chess power. They have an exceptional generation of high-quality players. One of them may be the future world champion," said Gary Kasparov, who was watching the pain of the European team drown in the championship, after the final match.A few weeks ago, in a completely different context, the legendary chess player criticized the country: “China must be held accountable, and its elements are in the free world as well. Time passed to finish the unilateral path of dictatorship engagement with the free world, export corruption and death alongside oil and goods.” But here , Politics kept outside the council.Read More: Play it Safe An Introductory Guide to Online Gaming for ParentsThe golden generationIt remains to be seen if one of his golden generation could fight against the crown and sceptre from Magnus Carlsen (still only 29), but China was rapidly advancing in the game. A long time ago, Beijing banned chess during the first eight years of the Cultural Revolution.Then, in 1975, Malaysian patron Dato Tan, in cooperation with Chinese officials, designed and funded the "Grand Dragon" project to make China a global chess power. His model was the strategy of the USSR state in the 1930s and 1940s, discovering players at a young age and putting them in the right climate for prosperity. The state educates and develops them from childhood, grooming them carefully for the international scene and generously rewarding them when they begin to achieve the results, which they have been consistently achieving.First, China occupied the title of formerly dominant Georgian female scientist, before advancing to the biennial Olympic team until its victory in 2014. Finally, after many years when Chinese ancestors concentrated in the first twenty or thirty places, they found Ding, who is characterized by style of play Classic and dynamic. In addition to third Ding, they have three more in 25th place. Only top Russia has more. And unlike the USA’s talent pool, China’s is entirely home-grown.Although the result of the tournament was a symbol of the emergence of China as a major chess power, it was a metaphor for hope in these difficult times. When the epidemic and closure closed the sporting world, chess managed to win a tournament with the best in the world, barring Carlsen, who just finished organizing his own tournament online recently.Yifan candidly expressed the overwhelming excitement of chess brothers in words: "I am really excited because here we are. In this global climate, it is very important that we try to bring something together that will make chess rise somewhat in the air. I think it's a chess franchise, we can do many different events by The Internet. I definitely enjoyed a lot and really enjoyed it. "It was fun, but it also required a lot of adaptation and adaptation, for players, organizers, fans and referees. They only had three weeks to organize and prepare, and although they did not dive into the exact unknown, they posed a whole new set of challenges.Like the Team Europe Zoom conferences, it exploded briefly on the second day. Dutch chief professor Anish Giri was so worried about his internet connection that he spent a week before the tournament looking for ways to keep the connection stable. "I used to play in a smaller online tournament and Wi-Fi was disconnected. I was angry. I did a lot of research and updated everything. Now he told ChessBase.com," My Wi-Fi is completely crazy. "To achieve the shaky connection, Dinara Saduakassova, who was playing from her home in Nur Nur-Sultan, installed two mobile routers as a backup. “We have many unstated power outages in the city. Therefore, it is better to have cell phones ready. He is the savior. "For Italian-American Caruana, the biggest problem was that he couldn't go to the bathroom between tours. To maintain the integrity of the tournament and avoid accusations of fraud, FIDE insisted that players do not move from chairs, which means they cannot move from their seat and multiple cameras are watching you.Momentum forced him to play faster against Indian Grandmaster Vidit Gujrathi. "I was trying to play as quickly as possible because I had to use the bathroom. I just wanted the game to end as quickly as possible, and I literally ran to the bathroom," he said in an interview after the match.For many of them, the seizure was physical. Play with someone sitting miles away, looking at a virtual board and flashing your opponent's head from the corner of the screen. Admitted B Adhiban from India: "It looks like you're playing a computer. Every strength and body language is missing. You get used to it, but you lack this human element. Although you prefer playing in quieter environments, you are missing your opponent's face." This is not a mistake, but as Karwana pointed out: "It is like interpreting a person from a parallel world."The emotional face of the game is lost. "We miss the emotional part when people meet and shake hands with them. People love when they look at the painting in the eyes of their opponent. People lack that. FIDE President Arkady Dvorkovich. said," This is a very good alternative. "However, he could not imagine an end between China and the United States in a real championship. And he said, “It was exciting.” It could also have been the perfect storm, as political symbolism and attitude were not very far away.Read More: Play it Safe An Introductory Guide to Online Gaming for Free Online Games ?

The NFL (National Football League) could reduce the preseason from four games to two this year.This year NFL preseason will be reduced from four games once the new collective bargaining agreement is concluded, but the Association of Players and league are in talks to shorten the NFL preseason matches a year earlier, for the upcoming 2020 preseason. From the NFL network's Tom Pelissero, several team executives have been told that they could play two preseason games instead of the four set for this year.The shorter NFL preseason will allow for a longer "acceleration" period for the teams, even if the players show up for their training camps a week or two before the usual date. With an additional two weeks to develop game day protocols and testing amid the coronavirus, the league will benefit from a reduced preseason.CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones reported earlier this week that the Hall of Fame Game was still scheduled for August 6 in the presence of fans. 20,000 tickets were sold for the game. Of course, if the league is shortened in the preseason, they might push the match Pro Football Hall of Fame ceremony back a few weeks.The NFL preseason will be shortened in 2021 as a result of the league adding the seventeenth match to the regular season. Teams will play three games in the preseason instead of four, and the fourth week will be a bye. The league could catch a glimpse of a shorter NFL preseason in 2020 if both sides agree to cut games.The league created new training camp protocols as soon as players return to team facilities in mid-July. The National Football League is not planning to start its regular season on time, but whether fans attend the second weekend in September is still in the air.Fans will discover whether the NFL preseason is a success, whether shortened or not.img source: essentiallysportsAlso Read: LaLiga Virtual Stand | LaLiga will use "virtual stand" and fans sound for broadcasting

Sony has noted in a press release that the "enhanced and expanded" versions of the current GTA 5 and GTA games online will be released in 2021. This was announced during the "Future of Games" event from Sony, confirming the launch of PlayStation 5. However, It did not show any screenshots of what the new version of the game would be like.Sony PS5, which started with the Rockstar logo, briefly revealed people's enthusiasm, to make everyone understand that the developer in the open world is relaunching the multifaceted action game, but for next-generation consoles. Of course, there will be bells and whistles, with Rockstar promising technical and optical improvements as well as performance improvements. However, after a few generations of the game itself, we are approaching diminishing returns for the new experiences that GTA 5 has to offer, and fans know it. Rockstar's decision here is clear, of course: GTA 5 was just one of its best years in 2019, and with the latest decision to briefly release the game for free, the player base will likely continue to explode. After all, Epic Games Store couldn't keep up with the volume of people trying to download GTA 5 for free in mid-2020. Why did this momentum stop just because the new consoles will be released in a few months?This hidden PS5 announcement was the biggest news that Rockstar would not only bring back GTA 5, but would also launch GTA Online as MMO as a standalone experience in 2021. Those who update will receive "new updates" and " exclusive content "and the player experience will be Multiplayer. It will be free on PS5 for the first three months after launch. However, to entice people to start playing now, Rockstar says that all PlayStation Plus members will receive a million dollars in the game every month that signs in to play GTA Online. While no details are shared, these vague promises actually seem more substantial, in terms of content, than any improvements made to the main part of the game.Read More: Online Games: Top 10 Most Popular Online Games in 2020Rumor has it that Rockstar's next big project is in its early stages of development, so there is something to expect, perhaps with real storytelling. But if GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 were any indication, then what Rockstar would launch would then probably share a similar strategy: launching a massive game that could stand on its own, but ultimately served as a drug to monetize the multiplayer experience. Multiplayer will be supported for years and will potentially become a major source of income. Meanwhile, solo discount: GTA 5 may be on sale permanently, if not delivered for free, as evidenced by the appearance of Red Dead Redemption 2 on Xbox Game Pass.It's not wrong that Red Dead Redemption 2, even after having sold it very well, did not receive solo extensions, but many updates online. It's no mistake that GTA 5 hasn't received any updates for a single player, but it has so much content for GTA Online that it could soon be presented as a standalone experience.While Rockstar argues that the lack of additions for the single-player was "not a conscious choice" when it comes to GTA 5, it followed the same approach when it came to the West. In the case of Red Dead Redemption 2, a long-term online goal was planned, according to a developer last year. why not? By accepting Special Take-Two, the multiplayer chips of these two games contribute to more than half of the company's revenues.GTA Online independently reports a change, although it has been going on for years. By breaking away from the single-player mode, Rockstar opens up many different possibilities that are not dictated by basic game restrictions. Who knows what GTA Online will look like in two years? At this point, fans who request solo additions may be in the minority in the face of the number of people playing and spending money on Rockstar's multiplayer worlds.Read More: Free Online Games?

NFL Preseason Games

NFL Preseason Games: What to expect if the NFL has a two-match preseason in 2020

  • Jun 18, 2020

  • 2318

NFL Preseason Games: The National Football League faces the potential of two games this year, a radical departure from the four-season schedule they are used to.Last week, Tom Pelissero reported that NFL and NFL players are discussing the shortening of the 2020 season. A halving of the season will allow for a longer acceleration period, giving players time to prepare physically to participate in a training camp and games coming from an unusually reduced period because of the epidemic of COVID-19.Two-game preseason raises questions like: How many teams should you start in the first place? Should player Joe Burrow take some preseason snapshots? How about Tom Brady, who will be 43 in August? How do teams like Chicago hold a quarter-finals contest?This is where the NFL (National Football League) preseason games can learn a lot from the Canadian Football League, which has played a two-game season for years. I recently spoke to two former NFL coaches who also have extensive CFL experience on how NFL teams deal with this change, provided the League and NFLPA come to an agreement. Here is what I collected:Pre-season will favor the experienced teams. With the massive elimination of pre-season game events, call cards can be limited early in an attempt to avoid mysterious skilled players and new players in low-exposure plans. Organizations with new players in skill positions, especially midfielders, are more likely to focus on playing run games and screens early in the regular season, allowing the game to evolve over time, while teams with strong continuity starting in 2019, They would be better off to post their full game plans earlier.How might practices be? Practices are likely to involve more situational strategies, stealing time for individual and basic periods. Expect less live climbs, with more rounds during 11 to 11 sessions and more mock drill exercises.How will teams deal with playing time in the season? One of the sources said that their starters didn't play in the CFL season, except for the offensive streak, which was getting used to playing together. Maintaining the health of your best players in the opening game of this season was more important than getting them to take a few replays. It is not unlikely that a seasoned midfielder will play in the one-quarter of the game in CFL preseason, but it is doubtful how much really helps. For junior midfielders such as Bengals' Burrow, if they know enough about the system, they can play to cope with the speed of the NFL preseason games.Mid-fielders development and competitions. There is limited time to evaluate backups, which you see most of the time played in the NFL preseason games. Removing two valuable action matches on the field may harm teams with small QBs. Look at Dwayne Haskins in Washington. He had eight quarters of NFL pre-season action last year to learn as a beginner before finally taking up the initial job in the middle of the regular season. Imagine how hard things Haskins would have faced had he played in just four quarters in the NFL preseason games, giving him less time to develop before being pushed into action in the regular season. Or consider Aaron Rodgers, who had three years of four NFL preseason games to prepare before replacing Brett Favre as Green Bay's QB1. He was well trained and had time to develop.Quarterback competitions will be determined by what coaches see in practice and in NFL pre-season games. This will not change. The most important QBs are likely to divide playing time in both games NFL preseason games, as each QB gets the same starting. Beyond that, what will ultimately help determine who gets the starting job will be more competitive situations (including in full scrimmages and simulated games) that will be recorded in practice.Also Read: NFL Preseason: NFL discusses shortening preseason, according to report

NFL and NFLPA were previously divided on the list of pre-season, and the league maintained the desire to play half of the typical four-season schedule before agreeing this week.The NFL also told its members that it still pays longer for players to physically adapt to the requirements of a professional soccer field, and lists are expected to be 80 players per team. The National Football Association is still signing a list of 80 men for a training camp, according to Pelissero, and although there is debate about giving teams an option to split the list (i.e. 80 workers and 10 pending), the association has told players that it wants all teams to follow a rule.The federation said it has a general agreement with the league on high-risk prospects and the possibility of withdrawal, and another general agreement on compensation in matches lost due to the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic. The main economy still needs to be divided between the two sides, and details of general agreements must also be finalized, but the two sides have agreed on the concept.Players flocked to social media over the weekend to publicly press the NFL to take their desires seriously in health and safety protocol discussions, which included the desire to complete August without any preseason games. While ensuring this appears to be almost guaranteed, both sides can move on to the next set of issues as they aim to lay the groundwork for operations at this unprecedented time.Also Read: NFL Preseason: Texas DE J.J.

Dart rules: Everything about you need to know about Dart

Dart rulesUnlike many traditional pub games, darts have become popular enough to be organized by large governing bodies. Since the game originated in England, it is not surprising that its finest is the British Darts Organization and thus BDO rules have been used as guidelines. When in doubt, the rules played by the locals should always be applied.Please note that one yard = 3 feet = 36 inches = 0.9144 meters.DescriptionBy far, the most popular darts board design today is the "watch" or "treble" board and is the only board to be considered in these instructions. A good board should be made of vegetable fibers and called a "rough hair plate". The style is set on the dashboard with wire and tone. It consists of a circle of 20 pieces, apparently randomized from 1 to 20. In the middle is a small black circle called "target", around which is a thin red ring called 25 rings. The parts of this ring that are broken only by the "triple" ring extend to the middle of the edge and the "weak" ring represents the edge of the circle. So, for example, if a nobility fell on the syllable marked 14 and was inside the treble ring, it would be labeled "Treble 14".Each player has 3 arrows weighing front, bird, weapons a few inches long with a sharp tip. The deck is positioned with a target center of 1.73 m (5 feet. 8 inches) above the ground. Players must stand behind a raised horizontal block called "oche" (pronounced "okky") with a height of 38 mm (1 1/2 inches), although any markings on the ground will work for casual play. The front of the octet must be at a distance of 2.37 m (7 feet, 9 and 1/4 inches) from the front of the plate.501 and 301 gamesMost professional matches "501 up". This is the simplest of games. Each player starts with a score of 501 and takes turns throwing 3 darts. The score for each round is calculated and deducted from the total number of players. Bullseye scores 50, the outer ring scores 25, and the dart in the double or triple loop counts the double or triple syllable points. The goal is to be the first player to drop the score to zero exactly, the only warning is that the last throw throws should land on a double or on a target.If the player drops the score to 1 or falls below zero, the result is bankruptcy, this role ends immediately and the score is returned to what it was at the beginning of that round. For example, if the player has 32 to exit and the first darts are 16, and the second is 15, the player drops, and the score is returned to 32. Therefore, at the last turn, it is not necessary to throw the three arrows: the player can win the first or second turn of the turn.Since a player who misses a double goal is more likely to score the song in this segment, good players try to leave an identifiable number like 24 or more ideally 32 - double 16. So, for example, if a player has twice 16 left, and hit 16, You have 8 left, if you hit 8 then you have 4 left, and so on, this is useful because it is not necessary to throw extra darts to reduce the result to a pair number. .. it often happens that people downgrade their scores to 1 (usually while targeting to multiply 1), some people play an informal rule called "division 11". This rule states that when the score is reduced to 1, instead of falling, the player must "divide 11" by throwing a throw between the two numbers that make up the number 11 at the edge of the board. This is complicatedSome games require doubling to start recording and also to finish the game.When the score is less than 171, professional players know the numbers they need to target to pay in one turn with 3 darts. Here is a table of such groups. Some results have multiple payment options, but in most cases, we only show the best:170 - t20, t20, bull. (Highest possible payment). 167 - s20, s19, bull. 164 - t20, t18, urine (preferably t19, t19, urine because it does not require two darts in bed and the error keeps the even number). 161 - t20. t17, bull. 160 - t20, t20, d20. 158 - t20, t16, toro or t20, t20, d19 157 - t20, t19, d20 156 - t20, t20, 18d 155 - t20, t15, toro, t20, t19, or d19 154 - t20, t18, d20 153 - BC 20, BC 19, D. 18 152- T20, T20, 16D 151 - t20, t17, d20 150 - s20, s18, d18 (bull, bull, bull are preferred unless you feel you are scaring your opponent!)149 - s20, s19, d16 148 - t20, t16, d20 (followed by t18, t18, d20) 147 - t20, t17, d18, t19, t18, d18146 - t20, t18, d16 (followed by t19, t19, d16).For all numbers under 146, there are at least 3 output groups.A popular game that is played for fun is "Around the Hour". In this, each player takes turns throwing 3 darts and must throw one throw in each part starting from 1 to 20 and then ending with 25 and a goal. Players must start with 1 and cannot move to the next number until the darts are successfully thrown into the current target segment. Doubles and triples are ignored. The first player to hit all goals then ends up winning the goal.cricket There are a number of darts games that are based on other pub games and this is the most popular one. Each player takes turns throwing 3 arrows as usual.To start, players throw a coin to determine who hits first. The hit player starts, and during each turn, tries to score the most points possible using the usual 501 scoring system. When a hitting player scores more than 40 points in each tournament, the number of points above 40 is added to that player's points. For example, if a hitting player scores 58, 18 points (points) are added to that player's points. Otherwise, the hitting player does not score anything.The opposing player is considered bowling and this player only targets the target. The shooter gets 2 wickets for the goal and 1 wicket for the 25th episode. Players take turns until the shooter throws a throw that records the 10th wicket. At this point, the turns are reversed and the other player has an "income" (turn on the bat). The game must end when both players play two rounds each, at which point the player with the highest score wins the match.If the hit player must drop a throw on the target or on episode 25, then the hit player loses one or two wickets accordingly. If the archer throws a dart that does not land on the board, 20 "additions" are given for hitting.For less-skilled players, the game can be made easier in several ways. Here are some suggestions:Each entry consists of fewer wakes, for example, 4)The goal of the wicket can be changed to parts 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20. Hitting players score the absolute amount in each round instead of the amount exceeding 40. killerThis is the most popular game for large groups and is very fun. There are differences, but this is the basic game.To start, the order of play is determined, and each player throws a "bad hand" (left-handed players throw the right hand and vice versa) on the board to determine their number. Obviously, if you miss the arrows or hit a number that has already been assigned, the player will try again. Each player (usually 5) is assigned a specified number of lives and generally, a small bet is required in a bowl. It is a good tactic to avoid being near someone else's number.Players take turns starting to target their assigned number, and they record one life for each hit in darts, two lives for a double, and 3 lives for a treble. Once the player has recorded 5 lives, this player becomes a "killer" until someone deducts one or more lives. However, the player must live 5 years to become a killer, if his score is exceeded he is deducted for the amount that has been exceeded. For example, if a player has 4 lives and reaches three times their number, the first three of the goals scored are scored up to 5 but the remaining lives are deducted, so the end result is 3 lives.Once the player becomes a killer, he indicates any of the other player's numbers. Every time they do so, the appropriate number of lives is deducted from the victim's player points. When a player drops below 0, that player is out of the gameAlso Read:

While each guide accompanies an exceptional setting, battle style, and interactivity experience, some have been amazing and more energizing than the rest. In this article, we commencement our main ten picks for the best multiplayer maps found in Call of Duty games.10 of the best Call of Duty multiplayer maps1. TerminalSince the time of its delivery with Modern Warfare 2, Terminal has become a trademark for the establishment. The guide got a revamp for Modern Warfare 3 and afterward returned as a pre-request reward for Infinite Warfare. In light of an air terminal, the indoor segment includes a ton of baggage, security designated spots, and small shops. Then, the external region highlights payload and a positioned traveler plane on the runway, which is totally open. There are a lot of little zones, a bounty of cover, and a small bunch of vantage focuses for expert sharpshooters to exploit. The guide is generally enormous, making it reasonable for an assortment of playstyles. With everything taken into account, the guide is really an immortal work of art and it does the trick to say fans love themselves some exceptional activity on Terminal.2. HijackedA motivation behind why Hijacked from Black Ops is so extraordinarily amusing to play is that the guide happens on a huge yacht in the sea. This guide is generally little and highlights some sharp corners and minimized spaces that take into account extreme short proximity battles to go down.There are two multi-evened out fundamental structures on the furthest edges of the deck with halls on one or the other side of the yacht. Thus, holding a view on the adversary and bringing them down with longer-ran weapons is additionally a decent chance. The underground pathway going through the motor room permits players to turn to the opposite finish of the guide rather covertly except if the adversary likewise has a similar arrangement.3. NuketownSince being included in Black Ops, Nuketown has been changed and repurposed for a considerable lot of the ensuing titles in the arrangement. To such an extent that it has gotten one of the famous Call of Duty regions. The guide uses the setting of an average 1950's US suburb and is among the littlest guides in the establishment. Nuketown is quite even with two twofold celebrated houses, each with a carport and a patio. A couple of various vehicles establish the center segment of the guide and the mark life-sized models are dissipated all through. The interactivity has some assortment to it as players can run and firearm with programmed weapons or camp on the upper floors with expert rifleman rifles. A mainstream highlight of this guide is the atomic blast that happens during the scoreboard arrangement. This makes Nuketown one of the arrangement's most conspicuous guides.4. CrashOne more work of art from the primary Modern Warfare title is Crash. Set in a conflict-torn Middle Eastern city, the guide is moderately little and spins around a smashed helicopter. While this is the place where a lion's share of the activity goes down, the guide additionally contains many limited passages and building insides. Accordingly, it favors setting up camp and guard systems. Then again, the high housetops and open spaces are incredible for marksmen. The assortment this guide brings and the way that certain scorestreaks are delivered incapable because of the great accessibility of cover, which means players need to depend on their gunplay, is the thing that makes Crash stick out.5. HighriseSimilar to different guides in Modern Warfare 2, Highrise has a remarkable vibe to it and an assortment of play styles to offer. It is a genuinely estimated map situated on top of an immense high rise, which makes for a beautifully unique setting. Highrise highlights two places of business on inverse sides with heaps of open spaces in the middle. A raised helipad sits in the middle and the remainder of the spaces comprised of generators and an underground passage framework that considers a simple route. While SMGs and shotguns are incredible for battling around the workplace regions, ARs are more appropriate for battle in the open paths. Additionally, this guide is a sharpshooter's heaven due to the various many-sided killing points and vantage focuses one can hold to investigate practically the whole of the area. It's plainly clear why Highrise is one of the fan-most loved Call of Duty maps.6. Firing RangeThen, we have another exemplary guide from Black Ops and it is Firing Range. Ideal for near mid-range commitment, this guide takes players to a tactical preparing office in Cuba and rotates around high-speed interactivity, which is ideal for the hostile attitude. It includes significantly more close-quarter zones like the fervently challenged wooden house. Long-range weapons are hard to use because of the encased idea of the guide. Notwithstanding, that doesn't mean Firing Range doesn't support protective procedures. The pinnacle in the center makes for a reasonable set-up camp spot and claymores come enthusiastically prescribed to keep adversaries from surging. In general, Firing Range has something to bring to the table for everyone, in spite of the fact that expert riflemen may feel somewhat left out.7. RaidStrike from CoD: Black Ops 2 is certainly a guide for the individuals who like to get very close with the adversary. Set in a sumptuously huge chateau in Hollywood Hills, this guide to a great extent centers around tight situation commitment, settling on shotguns and SMGs the ideal decision of weaponry.Nonetheless, it doesn't totally deliver riflemen and other mid-to-long reach weapons insufficient. There are a couple of fairly open zones and longer paths to exploit such weapons. The strike has gotten one of the mark CoD guides because of the tumult and feverishness it has to bring to the table in battle.8. RustRust from Modern Warfare 2 has been a fan top choice and the reasons are really self-evident. The guide is situated in an oil yard in a desert, in this manner making for an exceptional setting. It likewise upholds a wide assortment of play styles. Players can challenge for dealing with the tall pinnacle, which is an incredible spot for expert marksmen. Else, they can cross through the passages underneath that are ideal for ambushing and making secretive plays. Because of the minuscule size of the guide, not very many setting up camp spots are available. This adds to a free-streaming match despite the fact that the potential for produce executing and touchy spamming isn't some tea. All things considered, Rust has acquired a broad reputation for facilitating 1v1 battles.9. SummitHonorable obligation: Black Ops restored the establishment incredibly by conveying probably the most paramount guides of the whole arrangement. The culmination is surely one such guide and it happens at an examination office laying on top of a mountain. The cold climate and landscape give a much-needed refresher after the various city-based areas of past titles. In spite of being a thin guide, Summit includes a lot of key pathways and concealing spaces alongside a wide assortment of structures. The inside of the huge structure in the middle is the most remarkable as this is the place where a large portion of the activity goes down.10. CrossfireCall of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was riddled with some classic maps and Crossfire is certainly among the most popular. Thanks to the design of this map, it is a proper fit for different game modes and playstyles. The map features plenty of buildings, meaning players could take an offensive approach by working their way through them and taking down enemies with a shotgun in the process.Crossfire also houses a wide-open area between the two two-story buildings on either side of the central street. This complements assault rifle and sniper classes and makes for some rather interesting gun battles. Even players for whom sniping isn’t their forte, tend to give it a go on this gem of a map.Also read: PUBG Mobile 2 Launch: PUBG 2 launching globally, India launch not possible                 Sushil Kumar And Associate Ajay Remanded To 6-Days Police Custody In Sagar Rana Murder Case

Recently, online gambling and fantasy games have seen a massive increase in popularity through the use of gambling sites in India.

Google once considered teaming up with Tencent to take over Epic Games

  • Aug 20, 2021

  • 2209

When Epic publicly rejected Apple and Google's App Store terms and hit the "Sue All" button in 2020, it seemed like the battle was just beginning. Apparently though, the daggers had already been out for a while, and were as sharp as possible. Today we learned that a Google executive even proposed to resolve a dispute with Epic by reaching an agreement with Tencent to wrest control of the company from founder and CEO Tim Sweeney. Tencent, the Chinese group that owns Riot Games and parts of several other large developers, owns 40% of Epic Games, while Sweeney is the majority shareholder. According to a court document filed by Epic today, an anonymous Google executive once suggested that if Epic isn't playing well, Google should talk to Tencent about buying Epic stock "to gain more control" from the Fortnite developer, or even can do it working with Tencent to take over Epic entirely. "Google has realized that Epic may not accept its offer." As a "potential alternative," a senior Google executive suggested that Google "consider approaching Tencent," a company that has a minority stake in Epic, (i) buy Epic shares from Tencent to gain more control over Epic. or (ii) Join Tencent to buy 100% of Epic. The details come from a unredacted complaint Epic filed today in the US District Court in Northern California. Tencent was still hidden along with other details. But yesterday the court rejected the search giant's request to keep this information sealed, which is why the full document has now been made public. "It appears, sadly, that Google was indeed contemplating a coordinated, multinational hostile takeover attempt of Epic in response to Fortnite launching outside of Google Play," Sweeney wrote on Twitter. Epic's lawsuit against Google is very similar to the lawsuit filed by Apple, which was prosecuted earlier this year. Epic says Google's anti-competitive actions are "forcing app developers and consumers" to use the Google Play Store, which requires sales cut just like Apple's App Store.The big difference is that Apple's App Store is mandatory on iPhones, but for phones running Google's Android operating system, Epic had the option to launch Fortnite as a side-download app, which it did. According to the filing, Google feared that the Fortnite launcher, which later became the Epic Games Store, was a "contagion" that would alienate others from the Google Play Store. Epic presents Google as a scheme that tried to strike a special deal to prevent the Google Play Store from rejecting it, while at the same Tencent surprise everyone. The complaint also notes that Google made similar side agreements with other game publishers, including Activision Blizzard, to keep them on the Google Play Store, and describes the agreements Google made with phone manufacturers to prevent them from pre-installing non-Google stores, resulting in "exclusivity". Epic is seeking an injunction requiring Google to stop what Sweeney and his company consider anti-competitive measures. As in the case of Apple, Epic frames the lawsuit as a fight for software freedom and says Google has failed to deliver on its promise to maintain "an open and competitive Android ecosystem for all users and industry participants."Also Read- Afghan national team footballer Zaki Anwari dies in fall from US plane at Kabul airport

SL was 50/4 in 9.5 overs.From then on, the road to gold got tougher for SL, as spinners Deepti Sharma and Devika Vaidya restricted the run flow. But Nilakshi and Oshadi Ranasinghe fought back with some boundaries, leaving SL with 43 to get in the final five overs.But Pooja Vastrakar, India's star in the semifinal with the ball, removed Nilakshi for 23 off 34 balls, ending a fighting 28-run partnership.

The team of Sarabjot Singh, Arjun Singh Cheema and Shiva Narwal narrowly beat the Chinese team to take the top podium and earn India its fourth gold medal from the shooting ranges. India's Naorem Roshibina Devi signed off with a silver medal after a 0-2 defeat against local heavyweight Wu Xiaowei in the women's 60kg wushu sanda final. The Indian found the going tough against Wu Xiaowei, the reigning champions in the category, allowing the Chinese to get off to a strong start. Wu was declared winners by the judges after two rounds. Trying to get her opponent off the mat, the local favourite had an aggressive first round and began with a splendid take down of Roshibina. The Manipuri athlete tried to bounce back and got her hold of Wu's leg to push her out to the edges but was unsuccessful as round one belonged to the Chinese who had a 1-0 lead. A watchful Wu sealed the issue with an attack on Roshibina Devi's torso in the second round. Roshibina had won a bronze in the 2018 edition at Jakarta.

GTA 6 release date estimate, trailer, and latest Rockstar Games news

Here's what we know about the Rockstar Games GTA 6 release date, the new GTA 6 trailer, and all story and gameplay details revealed so far.When is GTA 6 coming out? Given how many years it takes to create open worlds of the same caliber as GTA 5, it’s no surprise that Rockstar Games has already spent years developing GTA 6. However, like most developers, Rockstar prefers to keep its secrets close to its chest until they’re close to the end of development – and recent reports suggest that the release date is sooner than you might think.The Grand Theft Auto 6 release date has certainly been a long time coming. Early gameplay leaks of GTA 6 surfaced online last year, along with lines of source code and development footage for the open-world game. There’s been plenty of rumors and speculation surrounding the release date since then, but you can catch up with all the confirmed details surrounding the story and setting in the GTA 6 trailer right here on PCGamesN. Here’s all the latest on GTA 6, including news, gameplay, and of course, the release date.GTA 6 release date estimateThe GTA 6 release date is expected to fall in Q1 2025 for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. However, the PC release is happening later and could be as far as Q1 2026.While the first GTA 6 trailer confirms the release year is 2025, a follow-up press release from Rockstar PR clarifies that this is a console-specific release date. Referring back to Rockstar Games’ road map for Red Dead Redemption 2, we expect that the GTA 6 PC release date will fall one year later.Our quarter estimate is based on Take-Two Interactive’s targets for fiscal 2025. In a Take-Two Interactive investor call, chief finance officer Lainie Goldstein stated, “we are positioning our business for a significant inflection point in fiscal 2025 that will culminate in us delivering new record levels of operating performance next year and beyond.”The company said that “active development for the next entry” is “well underway” and that it will enter its “next phase of growth in fiscal 2025.” While it’s possible that this is subject to change, GTA 6 is unquestionably the property that will allow Take-Two to meet their target of “over $8 billion in net bookings and over $1 billion in adjusted unrestricted operating cashflow.” Take-Two’s stock received a massive jump in share price as a result of the GTA 6 launch details being announced, and we expect that trend to continue as more is revealed.Rockstar insiders claimed back in 2022 that the GTA 6 launch date was “at least two years away” and provided early details surrounding the crime game‘s leading characters and the return to Vice City.Around the 20th anniversary of GTA: Vice City’s release date, actor Bryan Zampalla posted a photo of himself on social media with palm trees in the background and a Hawaiian shirt. Zampalla’s rumored ties to GTA 6 caused speculation that this was a tease at GTA 6 news. However, further photos have led many to wonder if the rumored GTA 6 voice actor is simply taking the opportunity to troll vigilant GTA 6 fans.GTA 6 trailerThe GTA 6 trailer was released earlier than anticipated due to widespread leaks. It was originally scheduled to drop on Tuesday, December 5, 2023 at 9am ET / 6am PT / 2pm GMT / 3pm CET / 1am AEDT, but Rockstar Games has since made it available to view following the leak.Rockstar Games president Sam Houser confirmed on the Rockstar Games Twitter account that the GTA 6 trailer would arrive in “early December”.Trailer 1 confirms the GTA 6 release date year as 2025. It’s approximately 91 seconds in length and verifies long-standing rumors that the series is making a return to Vice City. It features several prominent GTA 6 locations, including the Malibu Club and Ocean Drive. We also catch a glimpse of our two main protagonists, Lucia and Jason, thrown together in unusual circumstances and forced to work together, with the possibility of a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde situation.GTA 6 leaksOn September 18, 2022, 90 videos showing off 53 minutes and 26 seconds worth of test footage were leaked in one of the biggest data breaches in history. In the early test footage, we can see the player taking the role of a male and a female character as part of a Bonnie and Clyde-like duo named Jason and Lucia, as reported by Bloomberg earlier that year.One of the standout clips shows the player controlling Lucia as she and Jason hold up a diner, like the couple at the end of Pulp Fiction. Other videos show Lucia standing on a street corner, watching the traffic go by in broad daylight, while Jason visits a nightclub. Since the footage became public, the GTA 6 leaker has been arrested.A further GTA 6 leak occurred on TikTok just days prior to the GTA 6 trailer release date, which included a brief glimpse of the map. However, this leak was quickly overshadowed by the GTA 6 trailer itself, which leaked on Twitter less than 24 hours prior to the official release. Rockstar Games responded by releasing the trailer wholesale shortly after the discovery of the leak, stating, “our trailer has leaked, so please watch the real thing.”GTA 6 newsDespite the major setback of leaked game footage, Rockstar released a statement to clarify that while it is “extremely disappointed” that early footage has leaked, work on “the next Grand Theft Auto will continue as planned”. The developers also assure fans that they “will update everyone again soon and, of course, will properly introduce you to this next game when it is ready”.At the very least, Rockstar has been developing GTA 6 since the community update on February 4, when Rockstar confirmed that “active development for the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series is well underway”. Whatever it is, we can rest assured it will be “special”. As part of the studio’s announcement that it was winding down support for Red Dead Online, Rockstar confirmed that more resources were being diverted to “the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series” and that it wants to ensure the new game “exceed[s] players’ expectations.”Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick suggests, in a 2019 interview with GamesIndustry.biz, that better development tools and bigger teams could shorten the gaps between game releases. It could also mean that “games may be a bit shorter” while still being robustly supported post-launch.Mitigating GTA 6 crunch time is another reason the next GTA 6 could be shorter. As Kotaku says in its report in 2020, “One plan that management has laid out for the next game, a new entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, is to start with a moderately sized release (which, by Rockstar’s standards, would still be a large game) that is then expanded with regular updates over time, which may help mitigate stress and crunch”.Rockstar employees are speaking out about the positive changes the company is making after the scrutiny it attracted following the crunch time over Red Dead Redemption 2.GTA 6 storyThe GTA 6 trailer gave us concrete details surrounding the GTA 6 story. It’s quickly apparent that GTA 6 is set in modern-day Vice City and not the ‘80s, thanks to the proliferation of social media posts that provide quick snapshots of everyday life in Rockstar’s exaggerated version of Miami, including alligator-wrangling, drive-by twerking, and a middle-aged woman in a nightie and slippers wielding two hammers. While the prospect of in-universe social media has appeared previously in GTA 5, this latest representation of Vice City already proves that the more things change, the more they stay the same.We also get our first proper introduction to Lucia, the first of GTA 6’s two main protagonists, as she appears in orange prison garb, conversing with a prison counselor. When asked why she ended up in prison, she shrugs: “Bad luck, I guess.” It’s unclear whether this cutscene takes place at the beginning or the end of her story, but the GTA 6 story is set to chart the course of her time on the wrong side of the law.We also get a glimpse of Jason, the second GTA 6 protagonist, and Lucia’s partner-in-crime, although he appears to be a less prominent figure in the GTA 6 story than Lucia. The two clearly have an intimate relationship à la Bonnie and Clyde, though their depth of romantic feelings for one another is yet to be revealed. In a brief voiceover, Lucia appears to be addressing him as she declares: “The only way that we get through this is by sticking together. Being a team.”This teamwork is reflected in a fraught cutscene as they flee the cops in a getaway car, dollar bills clutched in Lucia’s hands. We also see multiple instances of them storming into convenience stores and other buildings, faces obscured, and guns raised. One thing’s for sure: this is one crime spree we don’t want to miss.While leaks have shown off Lucia in the past, rumors were circulating about a playable female character long beforehand. Eagle-eyed users from GTA Forums picked up on some clues, keeping track of some of the voice talent. One actor, Natonia Monet, originally lists on her CV a performance as “Tamara” under a project known by the codename “Fireball”. This profile has since been altered, but as one of their users points out, “Fireball” is the name of a song by Miami-born artist Pitbull. As it turns out, this may not be the main character, as she is named Lucia in the footageGTA 6 map speculationAs for the GTA 6 map itself, some fans speculate that if the calculations from the GTA 6 leak were true, this version of Vice City and the surrounding areas could be twice as large as GTA 5’s Los Santos – although a former dev has suggested that the GTA 6 map should be smaller and more densely packed.Rumors also suggest that the campaign’s map will change through DLC to include new areas or updates to existing ones based on whatever theme the DLC has. It’s not just the campaign map that changes either, as the new GTA Online mode may take place on an ‘evolving map’ that includes alterations and tweaks with every update, much like how the Fortnite map changes with every new season.GTA 6 gameplayAs for what GTA 6 gameplay we can see from the leaks, there’s not much different from GTA 5. In one of the leaks, we see Lucia – presumably controlled by the player – holding up a diner while trying to keep the hostages from escaping by shooting them in the back as they run. We also see Jason and Lucia evading the cops by stealing one of their cars and driving around the block. Jason also leans out of a moving car while shooting with an assault rifle.As you might expect, driveable vehicles include GTA 6 cars and boats, while the Metro allows players to effectively travel across the city. In addition, the cars seem to allow players to adjust the wheel’s position, chair angles, and other controls.Some raw test footage shows more about the movement mechanics, including a cover system, crouching, and crawling. The playable character can also cover their face with their hands or GTA 6 weapons to prevent headshots. At one point in the footage, we see Jason looking in a convenience store while using a new vision ability. It looks similar to how Deadeye in Red Dead Redemption works, but right now, we only see it adjust the color of the footage.And that’s our roundup of GTA 6 release date rumors and speculation. We still have a long time to wait until the sequel to one of the best PC games arrives. In the meantime, we have compiled a list of GTA 6 cheats that we’d love to see in the sandbox game and some speculation on whether GTA 6 will be on Steam for those of you who prefer playing games on Valve’s platform.Also Read: Gaming Extravaganza: The Top 20 New Latest Games in Market 2023

10 Best Games You Should Play

  • Jan 09, 2024

Poki Games is a gaming platform that provides a diverse range of online games. The extensive selection, while impressive, can lead to confusion about what to play. But fear not, as we've got you covered. We delved into the world of Poki Games and identified the top games you should be playing at this moment. So, without any more delay, let's jump right in.1. Subway SurfersRemember the Infinite Runner Subway Surfer? Of course, you do. While the game might have lost its popularity from the yesteryears, Poki acknowledges its legacy and has added the classic into the platform. Expand Collapse2. Who is?True to its name, Who Is? is a situation-guesser game. You are presented with various situations with people where someone is telling lies. The player’s job is to decide who is lying and find the truth.However, the interesting part is that you must have evidence to support your decision, which is hidden in the game itself. It’s a simple concept, very fun over time, and if you are bored, it will help you kill a lot of time while getting a healthy chuckle out of you.3. Stick MergeAnother hyper-casual game, Stick Merge, makes you play as a stick human tasked with taking out as many enemies as possible on a battlefield. You start with a simple pistol and gradually upgrade it by mixing and matching two weapons for a better one.While there is no movement required, it’s still quite fun to wave your mouse around and shoot at the moving targets. Do note that reloading takes some time, so plan your shots accordingly. The game is easy and perfect if you have a downtime between your work.4. Temple Run 2Another classic game for mobile phones also returns. Temple Run 2 is an endless runner, where you guide the adventurer to escape from a castle while getting chased by monsters. You control the turns, ensuring they don’t bump into a wall.Like Subway Surfer, the speed increases, making the game harder. It’s one of those titles that has defined gaming on a mobile phone. Hence, if you have never played this, try giving it a run (pun intended).5. Murder If you love TV shows on royalty and deceit, you will love the Murder game on the Poki online platform. It’s a simple game that involves you taking out the king and claiming the throne for yourself. It is played like the traditional Daruma game from Japan.You charge up your knife slowly and ensure the king doesn’t notice your attempt to murder them. However, the king keeps looking back, so make sure you let go of the knife when he does.6. Bubble TroubleBubble Trouble involves you playing as a demon while wearing some of the most pre-2010 fashion. I mean, look at the glasses and the black coat. That just gives an extreme Flash game vibe. Its history is rooted in the humble Android Play Store, and it returns as a classic to the Poki platform.You essentially have to pop bubbles using your rope gun and ensure you don’t get hit by them. Later levels make it a chaotic experience and will help you kill time. Check it out and add some chaos to your life.7. Stickman HookOne of my favorites on Poki, Stickman Hook, instructs you to control a stickman shaped like a ball across various levels. While that would’ve been easy, you hook and swing to the finish line. There are various points spread throughout the map that you must balance to get to the end.If you want to play Spider-Man 2 but don’t own a PlayStation 5, you can give this a try. Jokes apart, have a look at Stickman Hook and tell us if you had fun with it.8. Drive MadDrive Mad is an interesting game that combines the pleasures of driving a monster truck with some wonky physics. The goal is to take the car from one point to another without crashing it.However, the difficulty amps up as it gets harder to control it at later levels when the vehicle increases in size, and the physics gets wonkier with terrain change. Oh, and did we mention that you’ll also need to drive the truck backward? Let’s see if you can handle it.Also Read: The best video game consoles for 2024

Huge Cash Prize For Paralympics Medallists: Bronze Winners To Get Rs 30 Lakh, Silver And Gold Winners...

Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya on Tuesday announced cash awards of Rs 75 lakh to the gold medallists, Rs 50 lakh for the silver winners and Rs 30 lakh for the Indian athletes who have won bronze in the just-concluded Paralympic Games in Paris. Those excelling in mixed teams events, like archer Sheetal Devi, will get richer by Rs 22.5 lakh. The minister announced this during an event organised to felicitate the medallists at the mega-event.Mandaviya also pledged full support and facilities for para-athletes to aim for more medals at the 2028 Los Angeles Paralympics."The country is rising in Paralympics and para sports. From 4 medals in 2016, India have won 19 medals in Tokyo and 29 in Paris with 18th place finish," Mandaviya said."We will provide all the facilities to all of our para-athletes so that we can win more medals and gold medals in 2028 Los Angeles Paralympics." India concluded their historic Paris Paralympics campaign with 29 medals, including seven gold, nine silver, and 13 bronze medals, marking the country's best performance in the competition's history.India also crossed the 50-medal mark in Paralympic Games history with their excellent performance.Swarmed by hundreds of supporters, India's Paralympic medal-winners returned to a jubilant welcome on Tuesday after securing the unprecedented haul in the French capital.The men's javelin throw F41 final in the Paris Paralympic Games earned India its 29th and final medal of the campaign, as well as the 7th gold medal, thanks to Navdeep Singh. Though the event ended on a controversial note, with Navdeep's initial silver being upgraded due to Iranian athlete's disqualification over the display of a flag, the India star was elated to put the Tokyo Paralympics ghosts to bed. After making history for India, earning first-ever medal in the F41 category of the Paralympics, Naval drew comparisons with India's Olympics star Neeraj Chopra.Neeraj had famously earned a gold medal for India in the Tokyo Olympics, before adding as silver to his trophy cabinet in the Paris Olympics. Seeing Navdeep bag a the yellow metal in Paris Para Games, his coach Naval Singh claimed that his ward's technique is even better than Neeraj's."I knew Navdeep was going to make me and India proud. He has done a lot of hard work. Navdeep ki technique Neeraj Chopra se bhi behtar hai (Navdeep's technique is even better than Neeraj Chopra's). If he were in able-bodied athletics, he would have done wonders. But we are all proud of Navdeep. This is just the start for him-he is going to break several records," Navdeep's coach told Times of India.Navdeep also lauded his coach for the work the two put together over the years, finally reaping the rewards in Paris Paralympics."My coach, Naval Singh, has worked a lot with me. He has trained me for almost seven years. He has played a big role in my career. Whatever I am today, it's because of him. He has made me an international-level javelin thrower. All the credit for my technique and foundation goes to him," Navdeep said.Also Read: Check out five significant types of swimming styles!
