Re: Overwatch
Alright, since I don't have any official Blizzard word on it, this is purely conjecture, somewhat backed by "data" I've noticed on my end.
I first noticed shortly after the Doomfist update that I felt I was getting a lot fo Doomfist items in Lootboxes. This was also at the time of the "You'll get a lot less dupes" change to lootboxes as well. I also noticed the number of unlocks on my hero gallery were relatively even on all the heroes except Doomfist, so I figured that the loot boxes are likely to give you stuff for heroes you don't have much unlocked on. I continued to observe over time and indeed Doomfist caught up to all the other heroes pretty quickly. By the end of the Halloween event, Doomfist had nearly caught up to everyone else. Afterwords I started getting a lot more dupes again. Jump to today and Moira just came out. Got two lootboxes pretty quickly. out of the 8 drops, there was 6 Moira drops, 1 coin drop, and 1 player icon (also Moira related but since it's not directly tied to her I'm counting it separate.) Before Moira, I had an average of 63 unlocks per hero. She gets added and immediately gets the next couple lootboxes almost all to herself.
So in conclusion, I'm fairly certain lootboxes will lean towards giving you drops for your least unlocked hero. Probably proportionately compared to the others.

Dancing with NED
Back in September, I posted about Ovarian Cancer and told you about my wife, Cathy, and her journey with this disease. Two major surgeries and 17 chemotherapy sessions (lasting up to 6 hours each) later her oncologist ordered a Positron Emission Tomagraphy (PET) scan which was completed two days ago. The results of this scan showed "N.E.D.-No Evidence of Disease." In cancer treatment circles this is the disease remission that you pray for referred to as "Dancing with NED." While it is not a cure, it is an indication that active disease is not present.
I can honestly say one cannot know true sorrow until the one you cherish most is in peril and one cannot know true joy until the one you cherish most is saved. Right now, I am joyful to the point of tears. I pray that hers will be a long, slow dance (with Ned).

Re: Overwatch
I have started having fun in this game by muting everyone except my buddies and playing Genji while blasting the Metal Gear Rising OST.
Not all the time buy sometimes, it is also especially fun to ult as Genji right when RULES OF NATURE hits.

Re: Sincere congratulations to Lincoln and Aaron!
Thanks so much, everyone. I sincerely wish I could've invited every Icrontian, but I could never have afforded a venue that could accommodate that, nevermind the commensurate increase in Aaron's extended family to match.
I appreciate the many long trips that were made for this, and hope the rest of you can visit us in 2018. We even have a proper guest room now!

Sincere congratulations to Lincoln and Aaron!
We had a big ole wedding tonight! Congrats you two... we all love you and wish a lifetime of happiness and laughter to you both!
