    Someone else can take it I just want to guess the words.
  2. Oh, it is quite possible, Ab. I guess I have a nickname, if removing the numbers count as a nickname.

    That is where I disagree the SMART choice was to fold, and I agree he should have folded, but ultimately the BEST choice was to make that bet, since it resulted in the best outcome. As for the Bob example, so if you could walk away with a penny or have a chance to win a $1,000,000, the best option is to take the penny? Granted I can see where a penny is better than nothing, but does it really make up for the amount of time that was wasted making up your mind, or any of the other variables that happen to be present in that case.

    I never said to abandon reason. I was just trying to say that to say reason is the best way to come to a decision is unreasonable in its own right. There are times when you do have to do something unreasonable in order to change the flow of actions or to tilt the outcome into your favor. In my example, the reasonable thing to do would be to fold and see what the next hand would be, but that obviously was not the best choice. As I have questioned earlier, how can you say that reason is always the best way to come to a decision when everyone has different reasoning abilities and finds different things reasonable. I would say that committing murder because someone made you mad or you thought you could get money from the life insurance is an unreasonable action, but people come to that conclusion all the time. Currently in Maine, there is a law that they are trying to enact that would ban biological based bathrooms/lockers/sports teams in all schools. here Can someone please explain how that is a reasonable action? In my opinion, it screams lawsuit in waiting to me.
  10. These are fun to try and solve.

    Ok then. First off, whose reasoning should we use, since reasoning differs between people and constantly changes. Second, let's use this example. Let's say you (general you) are in a Texas hold-em tournament (don't personally think gambling is a good thing, just think that it is a good example for what I am trying to say) and you make it to the final heads-up. You and your opponent are about even in money and have been playing a while. You are dealt a 2-8 offsuit, (reason says fold right?) your opponent bets heavy since he has A-A. you decide to call anyways, the flop goes 2-2-2, giving you four of a kind, you go all in and end up winning the tournament and a couple million dollars. I hope that example conveys why you cannot always use reason and logic to make the best decisions. While luck was involved, it something that happens in poker all the time (as well as real life), where you have a hand that should not be played and wind up winning the pot or even the tournament (an example, Doyle Brunson won the World Series of Poker two years in a row with a 10-2 hand (not a very good hand)). While reason is good to use and should definitely be taken into account when deciding on stuff, it is not always the best option. May be a bad example, but I think that it kind of gets my point across.

    @ADParker: Correct me if I am wrong, but it sounds that you are saying that using Reason is the best way to go about going through life and making decisions? I might post more depending on A) your answer, and B) I don't forget what I was going to say.

    I have given my opinion earlier in this thread, but let's see if I can give a clearer reason. I think that the saying "If you can't do the time, don't do the crime" fits well in this situation (not saying that having sex is a crime, just think that the saying fits). Too many times, people get away with stuff, because it wasn't thier fault or the other people made them do it. There is no accountability in most people anymore. [/rant] Everything that you do, has a consequence (good or bad) that you have to live with. The consequence for having sex is having children, if you are willing to have sex, then you by the act have said that you are willing to have a child. If one does get pregnant, both the man and woman have to live with the consequence(s) that that choice has brought. As for the rape situation, I think (as Slick has said) if there were more people willing to adopt, then that would be the best option. As I have said this is my opinion, take it for what you will.

    Titanomachy

    Thanks for hosting AI.Great Game. @MM: How were you able to figure out pretty much all of the titans roles? @GM: What made you think that I was Zeus? I did not think that I had gave out a lot of information regarding my role in the first couple of lynches.

    Sorry, Those on the olympian side (those who were active anyways ). I should have done a better job than what I did. @GM: nice way of hinting that you were Kronos in that PM to me via AI.
