2012-08-01 22:09:05 - oss spy: Given what I learned from our previous game, he wasn't prone to using strategy.
2012-08-02 02:31:50 - Mercurius: Looks like I win twice as often as Red without "using strategy." Am I amazing or is Red awful? Probably the latter ;-)
2012-08-02 14:52:30 - oss spy: You've played 35 games, which barely crosses the treshold for a credible statistic. Sorry for bringing in math, but neither of us have enough data to make an assumption about our skills. Please don't speak on it if you don't know what you're talking about
2012-08-02 19:34:38 - Mercurius: Our records are statistically significant. My analysis suggests you win by chance and I win more than should happen by chance. I did the math in a way that provides reasonable assurance in the auditing world; feel to do your own calcs.
2012-08-03 01:59:50 - oss spy: I'm sorry to inform you, but completing less than thirty trials (games) means that your data will be more influenced by random variences. Honestly, 100 games is barely enough to draw conclusions of one's strategy.
2012-08-03 02:06:01 - oss spy: Also, how do you claim to have any sort of strategy? You clearly showed how you're irrational in this game and in our previous one, You attacked someone who was in a FAR better position than you. I even warned you to back off, but you went ahead anyway.
2012-08-03 02:07:01 - oss spy: You may have a higher win percentage than me, but that doesn't excuse other factors (i.e. I wasn't serious when I signed up two years ago, you played new people, etc.)
2012-08-03 12:54:16 - Limdul: I think you should complete at least 500-1000 games to start claim any level of play
2012-08-03 12:54:28 - Limdul: For the rest, I can't tell anything
2012-08-03 16:56:39 - Mercurius: I used 30 instances for my analysis. I used losses for the data that was lacking so as to not bias the results in my favor. Essentially, it would be as if I played a few games and suicided. I still came out way ahead of you.
2012-08-03 16:57:15 - Mercurius: As for other factors, they are not exclusively applicable to you.
2012-08-03 16:57:25 - Mercurius: Limdul, we
2012-08-03 16:57:42 - Mercurius: are talking about statistical significance, not intuition. There are set standards.
2012-08-04 10:12:39 - Limdul: I have no idea what you are talking about those statistics but I'm just saying that the first factor in a game is the other players
2012-08-04 10:12:59 - Limdul: So the more game you've played, the less it influences the result I think
2012-08-04 11:04:29 - oss spy: Exactly. To make a determination with such little data is stupid, and I don't understand why Green won't get it. If he's as smart as he's acting like he is, then he would understand this and wouldn't have brought it up.
2012-08-04 18:36:58 - Mercurius: My point is that there are set statistical standards that determine whether or not information is reliable. As these standards have been met, you can draw conclusions from the data. The conclusions are that red wins by chance or is skilled and insanely
2012-08-04 18:37:24 - Mercurius: unlucky, and that I am skilled, very lucky, or a combination of two.
2012-08-04 18:37:55 - Mercurius: Sorry to bring academia into it, red ;)
2012-08-04 18:39:04 - Mercurius: Scipio, did you see Serena annihilate Sharapova? USA!
2012-08-05 20:16:26 - oss spy: Green, I'm sorry to inform you that you have no idea what you're talking about. In statistics, you need a minimum of 30 trials to determine if the outcomes are random fluctuations or not. In reality, 100 trials are not enough and there are various factors
2012-08-05 20:16:51 - oss spy: that must be taken into acccount. Sorry to bring in mathematics, Green ;)
2012-08-05 20:52:28 - Mercurius: My point is that I could just play two more games and lose intentionally to meet the 30 requirement. For the analysis, I just added two losses. If that's above your head, I can see why you probably only win by chance :-p
2012-08-06 19:20:13 - Scipio48: I did not see the annihilation, unfortunately. The closest TV is 30 miles away...I did see a few of the events on Sunday though.
2012-08-06 19:57:07 - Limdul: Oh god I though I'll have to fight red alone... Was really close wasn't it ?
2012-08-07 04:03:39 - oss spy: Green...uh...did you manage to ignore that I included the "100 trials" thing, or did you deliberlately not acknowledge it?
2012-08-07 22:17:32 - telecom1776: Impressive game. I'm in a Doubles game at Round 187. My team is just my partner but all our teams have a couple thousand troops or so like this game
2012-08-26 19:29:22 - oss spy: Sorry, cyan. Taking my turn via phone and I clicked wrong.
2012-09-03 11:14:53 - Limdul: Are we going to a war red ? I didn't really like those building toward me, that's why I started to reinforce there
2012-09-05 01:33:46 - oss spy: No, I just want to have enough to cushion the impact of an assault. In the event you were to go on a bender and start a war, I wanted to ensure that I could strike back quickly or at least force you to take losses...that and I was compelled to have my
2012-09-05 01:34:36 - oss spy: Troops in multiples of 5 so I can see if you ever try to whittle down my forces slowly. However, I'll move my troops out of Krakow and into Warsaw since I'm making you nervous.
2012-09-05 16:37:47 - Limdul: I wasn't deploying in this area so why did you though I may launch an attack ?
2012-09-06 03:26:13 - oss spy: It's one of my only means of retaliation. If Blue were to be dropped for being inactive, you would have the first strike initiative- you could cause havok for two turns before I would be in a position to retaliate. In this way, I am able to (somewhat)
2012-09-06 03:26:28 - oss spy: launch a counterstrike, however minor it will be.
2012-09-06 03:28:48 - oss spy: Essentially, I want the maximum frontage possible so that, if you were to strike, I would not be forced to waste turns in order to assemble a force to strike back.
2012-09-06 09:16:07 - Limdul: Well I still have 300 troops to catch up, that's something !
2012-09-06 09:16:32 - Limdul: And we're never gonna finish this game if we wait someone to drop...
2012-09-07 13:42:24 - oss spy: ...another miss click!
2012-10-22 05:35:41 - oss spy: Good luck, Cyan. It appears as if you have the advantage of first strike.
2012-10-22 11:07:56 - Limdul: Yeah but also ~300 troops less than you... may the god of dices with me !
2012-10-22 11:14:37 - Limdul: Well everything depends on your next turn I think
2012-10-22 15:55:19 - oss spy: It appears as though the dice gods favored you...may I ask what you sacrificed in their name?
2012-10-22 16:41:31 - Limdul: The thing is that you always favour the attacker over the defenser... That's what I hoped when I started stacking in Illyria and saw Blue almost dropping a couple times
2012-10-22 16:42:51 - Limdul: I lost almost 600 troops less than you, that's huge for 3000 armies
2012-10-22 16:42:57 - Limdul: almost lost*
2012-10-22 16:43:27 - Limdul: Anyway, thanks for the game mate... Sorry but I had to win this one, too much points to loose otherwise :p
2012-10-22 19:43:35 - oss spy: How did you get so lucky?
2012-10-22 19:44:00 - oss spy: That really shouldn't be possible....
2012-10-22 19:47:28 - oss spy: I've never seen somebody bridge a 300 gap and then create a 300 troop gap...it's impossible. I don't know, maybe I'll get lucky and destroy 300 troops.
2012-10-22 21:52:46 - Limdul: To be honest, I thought that bridging 300 troops was possible but I didn't expect to take 300 troops more than that... The only thing I do know, is that the attacked is always favored when big armies are engaged (unless you are really unlucky)
