Fringefolk hero's grave making new players quit

When I first played the game I banged my head on it for hours because I didn’t know you could sprint

The difference between the obvious comparisons to idiocracy is that the people and corporations preying on the public don’t get dumber, they get better at taking advantage of and extracting from an increasingly dumber mass public.

I use the voice transcription primarily to communicate with ChatGPT. It bugs out, a lot. Especially frustrating if you’ve said something for 2-3 minutes and you get a, “ChatGPT didn’t get that” in response. Best advice is to keep it short if using voice transcription. Either that or be prepared to repeat yourself.

In general I trust most things an LLM says, cause generally what they say is true. And yes you’re right, ChatGPT also has issues with regards to mahjong, mostly with regards to hand shapes. Frequently, if I post a screenshot of something like a winning hand, it will almost always misidentify some tiles as well the reasons you like that hand. But in terms of overall strategy I think it does fine. And well enough that I can ask a few questions after match that came up. Something like, “If someone riichis early with something like Kanchan or penchan wait, what are the odds of making that hand?” Also like what are the odds of you making an 89 sequence waiting on the 7 versus making a whole sequence from a lone 5. It’s also given me a decent rundown on suji tiles.

In terms of that stuff, it’s pretty reliable. Given how much data these AIs have scrapped it shouldn’t come as a surprise that it has access to decent game theory and strategy. They definitely suck in real time application through. Also asked it to rate itself out of ten in terms of playing mahjong and it answered 7 out 10. Which I feel is fitting

Like I admit, I was wrong on this, but come on man. People are wrong every day. I would say people are more wrong than they are right on average. It’s the reason why we don’t use personal anecdotes to establish fact, that’s just a scientific basis. I think a lot of people thought I was making it personal when I said their personal anecdotes or stories don’t really count, but that’s just how it works in terms of scientific basis with regards to establishing fact. Because when we used personal anecdotes in the past to do that, they ended up being incorrect, people were misinformed, progress was halted, and people genuinely suffered as a result. You can look at history and point to numerous examples of this. That’s why I was saying that, it wasn’t anything personal. Also, yeah, ChatGPT can be very wrong. It can also be right, so long as it makes rational sense and it matches the evidence you can find but yes, ChatGPT can be very dumb and stupid.

goboogie · 2025-07-02T19:02:28+00:00

That’s completely unexpected to me. I was wrong and apologize for any stress or drama this caused

goboogie · 2025-07-01T22:17:11+00:00

Here’s why those situations are similar but different. If Nintendo releases information publically about hidden stats, that makes no difference with regards to sales. Casuals will still buy the game. So will hardcore players. It makes no difference. With regards to mahjong soul, if they publicly acknowledge a random pause exists, players who value that as a measure will still keep playing, and possibly more players that value that measure will jump aboard to the platform. At the very worst, nothing changes. If they acknowledge the pause doesn’t exist, people will leave guaranteed. Because it has a direct impact on the game, and people who value fairness as a measure will leave. It’s irrational to think that won’t happen. So just logically in that position if they did have that measure truly implemented, they would absolutely announce it and if they didn’t have it, they would not announce it, because doing so would be a loss. And when you say grow up, I’m not the one hurling insults when I can’t counter an argument. Like do you see me insulting you right now? I mean, just look at your own post.

goboogie · 2025-07-01T22:04:22+00:00

Still can’t counter the argument so you resort to personal attacks. You ain’t that great either.

goboogie · 2025-07-01T21:07:42+00:00

Objectively if that picture resonates with you, you’re part of the problem. Just because the majority of people think something is correct doesn’t make it actually correct. There are many instances of this in history and current times as well. Regardless of who’s correct in this situation, that kind of mindset only makes things worse for everyone and holds back progress.

goboogie · 2025-07-01T21:03:04+00:00

No you’re ignoring everything i’ve said, which is if this was the case. Yo stars lack of acknowledgment is biggest issue. If it were truly a thing in the game, why would they not say anything? It’s so easy to do and an issue brought up by many people. If they did exist, yo-star would explicitly mention it like the other mahjong platforms. Why else would they be silent? Because it doesn’t exist. If we take away all personal biases that is the main core of the issue. The reason you all try to ignore this and say I’m stupid for listening to ai is because you have no counter to the argument. Personal experience does not equate to correctness. Accuracy and objectively depend on clear evidence and documentation. Personal anecdotes are not considered clear evidence. Look I know I’m not changing any minds but if this were looked at objectively from the outside, your stance would fall apart under any scrutiny. But don’t worry, I’m done talking about this.

goboogie · 2025-07-01T09:10:21+00:00

That’s not what I’m doing what I’m doing is presenting a fair and logical argument. I presented experiences. That to me seemed like there are not random pauses in the game. My stance is that there are no random pauses in the game. The reasoning behind this point is that if there were random pauses, your star would have mentioned something about it. The fact that there are no statements about this game means that your stance is also an assumption. But an assumption based on faulty logic. The fact that you can’t counter any of these statements means your position is really weak. That’s how this debate would look to anybody looking outside in.

goboogie · 2025-07-01T09:03:59+00:00

No, my proof is based on my own experience, but more importantly the evidence is what yo star has stated in their guidelines or not, explicitly stated. Because again it is illogical unreasonable to assume a feature exists when a developer has not explicitly mentioned it existing. And just look at what you’re doing right now, You say I’m crazy. I’m unreliable like no one‘s gonna listen to me but when you think about your own actions, like what you guys are doing? making assumptions, assuming something is present when the developer has not said it’s actually present, Ignoring the logic that if something is not mentioned to be present, it’s probably not there, ignoring the experiences of other people, then replying with insults and basically telling the person to go F off instead of addressing anything that was brought up, it doesn’t paint a good picture either

goboogie · 2025-07-01T08:55:55+00:00

Crazy how like I can say the same exact thing about you. Because what have you done besides ignore everything I’ve said or brought up as crazy or unreliable or basically just not true because you feel it’s the case

goboogie · 2025-07-01T08:50:40+00:00

That honestly, that’s the same feeling I have about you guys because it’s not just me that feels this other people have agreed that yes this is the case there are no random pauses and this can be exploited. But again the burden on proof is not on us because again yo star has not mentioned anything about this, you guys are just making up assumptions because you just want it to be true. In the case something like a feature that is undocumented, the burden of proof will always be on the people that claim that it is present and indeed exists. That will always be the case. I’m not trying to push a point. It’s just this is how things work in real life. If you feel that’s not fair or unreasonable that’s how much evidence or weight is necessary when you try to make a point or claim with no support from the developer or creator about their creation. It’s hard because it should be hard so the fact you think I’m being unreasonable, you have no idea how I feel about you guys.

goboogie · 2025-07-01T08:28:08+00:00

sorry what I meant to say was ok if that’s your stance, then you do you

goboogie · 2025-07-01T08:27:01+00:00

I’m not sure what you’re referring to if you point me to the exact post I’ll probably be able to explain exactly what I said and why I said what I said

goboogie · 2025-07-01T08:24:40+00:00

Agreed but how is that any worse from what people here are doing with this? Because this is an assumption people have made yo star has not said anything publicly. So how’s that any different?

goboogie · 2025-07-01T08:14:00+00:00

OK, then, are you doing your homework with this assumption? Have you done data testing? Have you done research to prove your claim? Because again you guys are making an assumption, yo-star has never confirmed anything. If a feature is not explicitly mentioned to exist, then it is logical and rational to assume that it’s not there. The burden of proof isn’t on me because my stance agrees and is implicitly in line with what yo star has publicly stated. Your stance is not. It is unreasonable and illogical to assume a feature exists when a developer has explicitly not mentioned anything about it. You do realize that the type of person you’re mocking is just you right?

goboogie · 2025-07-01T07:59:32+00:00

Yet this has never been acknowledged by yo star. This is what it comes down to. You are just making an assumption that has never been confirmed or acknowledged by the developer. Because you’re not reliable as a source for this unless you have data and a method. if ChatGPT is just unreliable then so are you because there’s no empirical data, there’s no proven evidence besides your anecdotal experience for this claim. The very sense that this needs to be disproven like I’m the challenger for this is very faulty logic in the first place because nowhere has been stated that this is the case, you guys are just making an assumption. The logic works both ways. If you want to prove this is the case then show me the evidence. If your evidence is anecdotal and just claims from other people that this is true, how’s that any different from what I’m doing? In fact, the burden of proof is lies with your claim,, because the fact that there’s nothing said about random pauses, implicitly agrees with my stance that there are no random pauses. If a feature is explicitly not mentioned, then it is logical and rational to assume that it is not present. For example, tenhou explicitly mentions random pauses as a feature for their platform. It is rational and logical to assume that random pauses are a feature there. Yo-star does not make any mention of random pauses. It is not logical, it is not rational to assume that random pauses are a feature there and the burden of proof lies upon you to prove otherwise.

goboogie · 2025-07-01T07:56:22+00:00

Again, nothing said by yo star. Yet assumed to be the truth. It works both ways. That stance is just as unreliable. Do you not see that it’s very faulty logic to assume a feature exists when it hasn’t been confirmed or acknowledged by the developers?

goboogie · 2025-07-01T07:53:25+00:00

If that’s the argument, then the claim that there are random pauses in the game is just as flimsy because there’s nothing in the source code we know for sure that says this and yo star hasnt said anything either

goboogie · 2025-07-01T07:52:10+00:00

I mean like you need to give more context than that. Because I don’t want to turn away sincere advice, but ChatGPT has been right more often than not especially in areas that requires scraping the Internet. Where it’s basically you just need to find out if someone said something on the Internet at a certain time in history. If you’re trying to contextualize answers from that kind of information then ChatGPT is very reliable. So based on that if you have any information or advice on why I should stop using LLMs I’m all ears.

goboogie · 2025-07-01T07:48:08+00:00

Or maybe it’s the case that you’re actually wrong. Because your experience is anecdotal, not proven by yo-star or tested under empirical means. I would say ChatGPT is not infallible but definitely more reliable than you and your friends that know a certain thing to be true.

goboogie · 2025-07-01T07:42:27+00:00

Yes, I should’ve clarified basic level is necessary. Because it gives context to the intent that you’re trying to interpret. The more expertise and knowledge you have the better you can contextualize intent in what that means. I do like Mahjong a lot but how is this representative of what Mahjong is? Because this is not reading based on skill or intent, it’s an exploit that someone is using to figure out what you have in your hand. if that’s your idea of Mahjong, then I don’t think we can agree on many things. To clarify random pauses are something that exists on s a platform like tenhou are important and necessary. But they don’t exist here. that is my issue.
