Default Re: OT: Game Theory/Statistics

Ah, k. I never worry too much about the names of the games, just the statistics and whatever.

But, yeah...the problem comes from the fact that anybody that knows probability and game theory is going to, eventually, play the guaranteed draw instead of the possible win. Either that or a jerk that nobody will want to play with any more.

I understand the theory behind the game but, without randomness or a sense of what your opponent is doing, "safe" is better than "uncertain."

Of course, I'm probably over analyzing things, as I am often caught doing.
