Makaze Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 are you a robot? you know, like beep boop Do robots play Poker? how can I be a hero without being a zero sum first? Ironically, classical definitions of the hero rely on the heroic journey more than anything. You could return a zero and a hero~. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makaze Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Not to mention I'm pretty sure each step taken can create numerous consequences rather than just two, I wonder, do all of those consequences always balance out?[/color] I think so. For everyone who gets what they want, someone else will be denied it. I suppose it's possible that people want different things and they don't have to contradict... But that's not very likely.

Freohr Datia Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I still feel as if you're forgetting that quantity is not the only way humans can judge stuff... (which is probably why you get called a robot, though I'm not entirely sure what everybody's reasons are for saying that they could all have different reasons for all I know) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peener weener Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I think so. For everyone who gets what they want, someone else will be denied it. I suppose it's possible that people want different things and they don't have to contradict... But that's not very likely. what people want is not always x or y object, objects can be created, citing scarcity as back-up is kind of dumb in this case considering there are not many things scarce enough for it to matter (especially in the context of people and what they want), and being overly technical is also pretty stupid considering people are not very simple at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makaze Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Of course. That is just my personal view of the world. I didn't mean to throw an 'every other perspective is wrong' into the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peener weener Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Of course. That is just my personal view of the world. I didn't mean to throw an 'every other perspective is wrong' into the mix. you should've said that you see life as a zero-sum game. it looked like you were making a bunch of very bold statements. edit: though i guess the question kind of implies it. sorry for jumping on your case.

Moira Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) I don't actually know how to play poker you should've said that you see life as a zero-sum game. it looked like you were making a bunch of very bold statements. I mean the question was to describe your life. I would assume he/she was describing his life and the way he/she views it. I think we can all just assume that its his/her opinion because tacking on the imo every time seems silly. Shouldn't it just be assumed?

Makaze Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) I don't actually know how to play poker Poker is a game of betting. You don't have to play with money. I use just chips. Without betting it's just plain luck of the draw. Edited September 27, 2014 by Makaze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aizenberg Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) okay, i don't know if this will make any sense there's a blank piece of paper with a straight line drawn on it. a perfect straight line. i try to draw the exact same straight line but it never turns out like the original. this upsets me because i want to copy the same thing. but what i don't realise is that it's just a line drawn on a blank piece of paper. the paper is the important part, not the line.
