You're thinking of the National Anthem, which is wholly different from the Pledge of Allegiance.

It's still pretty social, the article title is extremely misleading. They can't do raids solo, they can only do the final fight, with an AI controlled group, for the purpose of non-raiders seeing the end of the story line. There are no loot rewards for it either, it's just story.

Is no one going to talk about the faces photo-shopped into her hair in the 1st & 3rd pics, or that Pennywise is on her shirt in the first pic and Waldo isn't actually part of the artists tattoo?

Working just fine on Firefox without an account. How's that design working out? For all the time you've spent responding, you could have just looked up a video of the debate.

Try opening it in a browser instead of the app, just tried it on my phone and it still opened right up. Aside from that look for the video of the debate, that's literally all it is.

It's not more complicated. Following emphasis mine.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Boxing_Association

AIBA TO IBA: "In December 2021, the abbreviated name was changed to IBA in an attempt to rebrand the organisation and distance itself from the former administration."

"...The organization has been involved in multiple corruption scandals including on several editions of the Summer Olympic Games. In December 2017, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) expressed concerns about the governance of AIBA..."

"...In September 2021, an independent report found that bouts leading up to and during the 2016 Rio Olympics had been manipulated. To investigate boxing at the 2016 Summer Olympics and potential corruption of the AIBA, Canadian lawyer Professor Richard McLaren was appointed by AIBA to conduct a three-stage investigation. The report found bouts had been manipulated for money (up to $250,000), the perceived benefit of AIBA..."

"The IOC had been alarmed by the fact that the IBA's only sponsor is a Russian state-run energy giant Gazprom that supports the Russian invasion of Ukraine"

"In February 2023, USA Boxing announced its decision to boycott the 2023 World Championships (organized by the International Boxing Association)..., also accusing the IBA of attempting to sabotage IOC-approved qualification pathway for the 2024 Summer Olympics."

The IBA is a corrupt organization, funded by a Russian, state-run, company. Them disqualifying someone carries no weight.

Hope she's better at it than she was in the restaurant industry.

And it may not be C&C, but it was developed by the same studio, so the DNA is there
