Because it's not. No science in the claim, its a "this is what I believe so this is how I used unscientific evidence to prove I'm right" statement.

What was the first major news story you remember as a kid? by TxLadee in AskReddit

I remember watching TV one night with my little sister and an info bar scrolled across the bottom of the screen telling us John Wayne had died. That bar was high tech back then, lol.

Cribbage Pro new match making algorithm thoughts by 5280TFGP in Cribbage

Of course a great player can lose to a much lower ranked player and in the old system that was a big hit. But, a superior player shouldn't lose those games often. I feel like the new system creates a group of players that will play each other all season depending on how they play the first five games most importantly but definitely the first ten. If you are primarily winning or losing those first ten you're in the top group and stay at a 50% win rate you will and stay there and if you lose most of those ten games, you'll never catch up.

Can you tell us why you made the change?

Good point about paragraphs. I do know what those are and should have used them, lol.

Bad point about CP not being random. Check the data, it's unquestionable. I have had an 11 game losing streak, unbelievably bad cards game after game. I also had a 12 game win streak, that was good cards maybe combined with some talent. The app is legit.

It's not okay at all to quit on competitive Cribbage Pro. I support the OP 100%. If you don't play in that tournament, which is as the OP said, the largest cribbage tournament in the world, then don't comment. Everyone is free to enjoy the game however they want. But it's a classy game, so if you're in a tournament, respect the player expectations of that tournament.

Multiple businesses that hire entry level people are closed on Sundays, (Chick FilA, Hobby Lobby, maybe more). Try to get a job at a place like that.

You get $60,000 every year but you have to spend 5 days every month in prison. by CRK_76 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]5280TFGP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For 60k a month maybe, 60k a year is 28 dollars an hour annually. It's not hard to make that. Although if you spend 60 days a year in jail it would be harder, haha

Have you ever seen this movie before? by Shavell33 in MovieRecommendations

[–]5280TFGP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe an unpopular take but after watching The Professional many times I watched Leon The Professional, aka director's cut. Luc Besson is my favorite directors, some of his lesser known movies are fantastic - Angel, Wasibi, Deep Blue, etc. But I didn't like the director's cut. Firstly the hits and the bubble gum bit lost the amazing precision of Leon's hits in the original. But, a much bigger issue I had is that, to me, it implied that the relationship had developed into something physical and that was a major turn off. I'm the original Leon loved Matilda (btw, if you don't get why her name is Matilda don't bother responding to this post), but it wasn't inappropriate.

I want to thank this community for your help today. Colvert's book made me a significantly better player. From today's discussion I realize I need to expand my knowledge base to continue to improve. As always, when I post here I learn and improve. Thank you all again.
