brook, here is my post:

Yeah, swimfan, your numbers are right. If looking at the numbers (and numbers only, not going into abstracts and nonquantifiables), you are mathematically correct.
I have highlighted the relevant key words seeing as I was careful in saying NUMBERS ONLY. On a strictly numbers basis, swimfan is correct, but if you weigh in experience etc, the numbers would change.

PD is freaking awesome. So is Game Theory. I love that kind of stuff and watching it being correctly applied to games like BB and Survivor (Yul was a genius at using PD in Cook Islands).

I caught that post after the fact. Glad to see we are on the same page. I'm gonna spend the rest of my waiting reading up on game theory now.

This is a really long POV. When did they go to trivia? I didn't look at the clock then.

I just like her. I'm actually hoping that she is in the final 2.

I am hoping that whomever wins just leaves the damn nominations the same. Sheila or Sharon goes, period. Preferably Nat wins, tells James she is going to save him, and has James as a side deal here.

Why anyone would trust Baller to put up James is beyond me. James might go and cry again right before the ceremony. Obviously Sheila, Sharon, and probably James will use it. Ryan and Nat would be stupid as hell to trust Adam now.

As far as "will James take down Sharon if he wins?" I would say 90-10 yes. Baller said last night that he would put himself up because he is the one that fucked up, and he wouldn't want Nat or Ryan to pay for that. Nice sentiment, but I can't see it happening.

Thanks for all the answers about past feeds and DR interference talk. This group has talked so much about it, even before last night, that I wondered if it was a routine thing or not, (the talk, not the DR tweaking.)

I know thats what he DID i just don't know why he keeps saying he made a big mistake about it instead of saying it was his choice.

Because he is trying to have his cake and eat it too. He wants to send a member of TC to the jury house without being pissed off at him. If he plays the "DR made him do it" card, James wins POV and uses it and he has to put up Natalie or Ryan, his hands are relatively bloodless.

I think it is going to work really well or bite him in the ass. But at least he is playing the game for himself and not for that TC bullshit.

Does anyone besides me wonder about the saying "Have your cake and eat it to?" I mean, if we have cake, why can't we eat it? What's the point of having cake then? And is it really to much to ask to have the cake and eat it? I think not.

What harm would it do? You save Sheila, worst that can happen is Ryan gets put up and they have the numbers to keep him and Sharon STILL goes.

This veto has been standard, about 2 hours. I need to get out of this thread because my feeds are 2 minutes behind, if I do them live they become to choppy. I didn't subject myself to boredom for 2 hours for me to read who won veto on a screen.

Hamster A = Sheila
Hamster B = Natalie

Classic PD:

Note that the paradox of the situation lies in that the Hamsters are not defecting in hope that the other will not. Even when they both know the other to be rational and selfish, they will both play defect. Defect is what they will play no matter what, even though they know fully well that the other player is playing defect as well and that they will both be better off with a different result.

Oh God...how bored am I...?

Well when its this long it's a race then where each person runs a course, its timed and then you get a winner, so in other words.... James will win this one .

Well yeah, that too, but I was threadjacking a little because Battlestar Galactica Season 4 starts tonight.
