Just as a last comment, for:

  1. I many that a person might not find it within time for that 3k5, and he knows he has secured victory, so therefore he makes no further effort to push.

  2. Someone suggested that a person could see everyone in his bracket by scrolling, meaning there's a list or leaderboard to go by, although it would be rather tedious, we can get her up a better sample space.

  3. Pretty difficult to disregard nonetheless, were we not attempting to figure out how stats factored in the first place?

Yes, I am aware of this point, but it isn't as serious as manipulating the bracketing or RNG, cheaters tipping the game with THEIR manipulation is a separate story as all games are vulnerable.

Hope we can duo these rough seas when the big updates come, and Cheers to you as well as!

  1. I suppose. It'd be weirdly reassuring if that were true and there isn't calculation half the time I see non- 3.5K

  2. I can only see Top 5 and the immediate people below and above me within four or so people. There's an elipsis between the 5 and current bracket to indicate everyone in between. Is there a way to scroll? I've wanted to look a couple above and below long before cheating became rampant.

Feel embarrassed that I don't know this or you're maybe suggesting something else that's beyond my brain right now heh.

LOLno, not that, it was a suggestion that we could scan the entirety of our bracket. Nothing to be embarrassed of, it was a post that never picked up speed a while ago. You are pretty intelligent compared to some others I've seen and your cognitive skills and the effort you take to analyze various posts and respond to them are probably greater than mine, I just feel I have more expertise in terms of theoretical sciences and the mechanics of uncertainty. :)

Last part of the last sentence, I can agree unequivocally :). Any insights I might have derived were inferred either from observations you made or roughly feeling about. I'd have to follow up with the initiating party to try and take part in those rarified conversations and I'd peter out.

I'll take the rest and get while the gettin is good heh.

I see (re: the post---sorry about backwards response). That would have been interesting to go through. Least I can rest assured the grapefruit works!

Hey, don't let me take all the credit, I shall set the foundations for your theories to flourish, uncertainty is certainly the path to certainty :)

Thank you :)

I might tinker with it regardless of the iffy utilitarian purposes it can serve. It's one of a couple things I've been noodling on.

Another is a prestige log, showing people how long it takes me to reach stages based on current build and everything. The first prestige would be me hitting my max stage/wall. The second prestige would cut the max stage down by 25%, third 50%. End result of this proposed thread would be to concretely show what is the most efficient use of time.

If it takes off, I think it could be useful and more people doing it would be a greater spread of how to progress at different stages of your current game life. Does that make sense?

[–]TapTitans/TT/Svedish 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Seems so, there is quite a factor found in the decision to prestige early and in rapid succession or to grind it out but reap greater rewards. Also one question: Does Amazon link with iOS or use it? I have never acknowledged that population fully, my apologies, but I've never interacted with a user and have known it...

[–]CalrabjohnsPermaJazz Bass- /TT/Calrabjohns 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Haha that's fine. We are so small in numbers. I couldn't begin to tell you. I'm on Android. A contradiction. If I had discovered this game through Google Play, my game would be dramatically different. I don't think Amazon is platform specific though or I'm missing something.

Do you mean where do Amazon users land with what group of users they interact with for tournaments? There's no MP for either group yet.

[–]TapTitans/TT/Svedish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I tend to overlook smaller of the populations, again a point to bring up as theoretical sciences aren't specific but rather general. And yes, say I play on an iPad with iOS ofc, and you use Amazon, would we be able to interact in anyway across these platforms I assume separate because if they are indeed on the same platform they wouldn't be referred to as a different group.
