« on: July 19, 2015, 02:55:41 PM »What. where?I saw a few posts on Reddit discussing "let's just all join x team because popularity wins"
I've seen a few posts saying similar things on inkling's posts in my town.
Like I said, nothing large enough to make a difference. But the possibility is still there

« on: July 19, 2015, 12:05:12 PM »Even when you're shown an example where popularity does not make as much of an impact, you come up with the excuse that it was only because "popularity was very close".... No, that's not an excuse, that's an objective statement of what occurred. I don't know any other way to state it. It was very close because.... it was very close. It didn't make an impact because the numbers were too close to make an impact. I don't know what else you expect to happen
Rollercoasters won, but they won fairly. A narrow margin, but still fairly
the is a higher chance that the most popular team would get the most wins anyway.No, there isn't. Not at all. The game mechanics and mathematics do not work that way:
1: Only matches between two different teams are counted. Matches between same team are assigned for fast match making, but they're not counted towards the team's win rate. Thus, each team has the same number of rounds counted in their score. You would be right if this mechanic wasn't in place, though. I thought this at first as well until I learned about this mechanic
2. Since there is no correlation between skill and preference over X or Y similar thing, each team has the same average skill level, and thus, their win rates will not deviate further than a few percentage points of 50/50. Again, see law of large numbers.
There's also the issue of people deliberately stacking the teams by all joining the most popular team, making the problem worse. I've already seen people trying to do it, just not at a large enough scale to make a difference

« on: July 19, 2015, 11:30:52 AM »Even in social gatherings furries cannot stop trying to get their hands on balls.Wow that's actually funny
I wonder how you managed to pick up the bowling ball with the fursuit.A lot of them took their handpaws off.
Either that or they would hold it in both hands and roll it under their legs
A lot of them only suited for a short time. Most of the suits came off after the group photo, which was an hour after we started
youI don't have a suit
They gave us a nice discount, too. $13 per person for unlimited bowling until 10pm, then $1 per game after. They're normally $4/game. I didn't really make use of the unlimited bowling cuz I was mostly taking pictures, but that's my fault
But yeah one of the bowling alley employees was pretty much hanging out with us the whole time, and one of the guys who organized the outing talked to one of the main guys in charge at the alley and we're organizing this as a monthly thing, I'm assuming with the same discount rate
I think there was like 50 people, 30 suits. I can get a count of the latter later tonight based off the group photo

I was on the winning team lol, so tell me what I have to be "salty" about. Doesn't mean i can't recognize a badly designed scoring system when I see one.

« on: July 19, 2015, 10:46:54 AM »Wow, Roller Coasters actually won. I am legitimately surprised by that, even being on the Roller Coasters team. With the popularity and wins just being shown I thought it would be in the same situation for Cats v. Dogs but nope, apparently it wasn't. Good game to both sides anyways.Only because the popularity was very close.
I'd say 10% popularity difference is the point where the more popular team is always going to win

Went to a fursuit bowling outing last night.
I want to get my pictures up tonight, but I'm busy today so it might not be until tomorrow night
Here's one picture for a preview

The steak with ketchup is actually good, I do it.

Off Topic / Re: does anyone else get tremendously hungry before bed?
« on: July 16, 2015, 11:25:01 AM »like, suppose you wake up at maybe 7. You get hungry at 1 for lunch - thats 4 hours gap between eating.Unless you added a breakfast at 9 that you didn't mention, that's 6 hours.
you wake up at maybe 7...stay up doing whatever til 3The issue is you're not supposed to stay up that late.
Your should be in bed long before 3am, and then while you're sleeping, your body suppresses many of the processes that would cause you to get hungry
You're not supposed to get that little sleep either but that's another issue
