Well, as I never post like nonsense (in any serious postings), that is quite insulting.

Paraphrase: (Playing well) AND talisman <> (impossible to defeat) Compare that to the first paraphrase: (Used correctly) AND Talisman => (Impossible to defeat) Assuming that "Used correctly" is a subset of "Playing well", those two paraphrases are at odds with each other. So, are we going to do this with real logic, where you walk through your reading and mine to find specific points of contention, or are you just going to contradict me and leave it at that? <hr> For reference, the thread I pulled the Last two quotes from: A thought on the Talisman / Live on Pay-Per-View: Geo vs. Fyron <hr><hr> Or do you mean the one where you were incensed at my insulting you by "original statement"? Edit: added a "paraphrase" that I had forgotten to make it clear that I'm repeating what I read Fyron's post as translated into a light Version of set notation, rather than saying something of my own. Edit: changed "second" to "Last" for clairity on which two quotes I was referring to on the reference section. Edit: changed "=" to "=>" for better set notation.

Re: 320.2! 301.5, 311.3, 65.4
Jack, I don't know if this thread is the place for it, but I do think your logic there is pretty solid. Fyron and I continued our conversation offline for sometime. He steadfastly refuses to conceed either that there was anything wrong with his initial statement, or that his two statements are in any way contradictory. He did come close to conceeding that for his initial statement to be correct it had to be assumed you were playing a game in which allied victory was an option. It is apparently his conviciotn that either that stipulation should be understood inherantly in the phrase "used correctly", or at least that the phrase "used correctly" is somehow vague enough as to cover any sort of optional game settings or victory conditions and not limited to in game performance as I reasonably took it to mean. Obviously I think that argument is equivalent to a substantial quanity of bat guano, but eh,whadaygonnado? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: 320.2! 301.5, 311.3, 65.4
well, it seems to me if your playing well with the talisman, your using it correctly. and if your using it correctly, your playing well. at least in that area. you could use the talisman correctly and play horribly in every other area.

Re: 320.2! 301.5, 311.3, 65.4
I guess the validity of that argument would depend on whether you're using an individual measure of "playing well" or a relatively absolute one. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif I think that qualifies as enough nonsense for this thread.

Re: 320.2! 301.5, 311.3, 65.4

Either Fyron or myself got the Last century post; the other got the Last century reply.
Umm, were 70 Posts away from the next century post.... |

Re: 320.2! 301.5, 311.3, 65.4
All right, I got the century post, Fyron got the century reply.
Oh, I don't know, we might get to it. |
Re: 320.2! 301.5, 311.3, 65.4
Jack, perhaps you would like to explain to our listeners why I can never see your name in the Recently Visitors list ever? Is it some new type of cloaking device?

you can find him in the forum list. i asked about that before.

Re: 320.2! 301.5, 311.3, 65.4
Do we have listeners at this hour?
There are several different ways to do it: 1) use the "hide from recent visitors list" option under your profile (what Fyron does, Last I heard) 2) Get to threads through Get Daily page; the recent visitors list only applies to people who visit the page with the list on it, not the threads in the section of the forum (this is what I do). 3) You can log out and back in repeatedly; you will show up in the recent visitors list as a guest. 4) you can bookmark threads and jump to them directly (I do this as well). 5) reserved for any methods I don't know about. BTW - check again. |
