Episode 1 discussion (IN HERE ONLY)

[Waka]

Dale was mine

[Newman]

Oh shit I totally forgot I picked Keith too. If it wasnt for my TC I had almost perfect choices </3

[Effy]

Fuck. That means you beat me.

[Newman]

Idk looking back on it maybe not. My captain was shit and some of the others were invisible.

I think halving the scores would be a bad idea. These seem to be similar to regular episodes of scores last season. I think the main difference was the double boot rather than just the double length that threw things off.


Jeremy +30
Dale +23
Keith +20
Josh +20
John +20
Wes +17
Baylor +16
Missy +15
Jon +13
Reed +13
Val +13
Natalie +13
Julie +13
Drew +13
Alec +12
Kelley +10
Nadiya +10
Jaclyn +8

lol said after your team gets a good score. You cant really ask for a rule change after the fact.

I didn't mind that episode. Thought it introduced a few decent characters, didn't shove the twinnies down our throats. Was good.

[doob]

Nothing to do with my team. Which may not even have gotten a good score like you even know?

The fact is that the addendum was considered after last season had players getting 80-100 on the first episode with some only getting 10-20 and so if you had a good leader in ep 1 you were far ahead for a long time.

The fact that the points were distributed so evenly, it will negatively skew the first episode rather than correcting from a positive skew as planned.

[Newman]

So tell me or tell me not that you have:

-Jeremy
-Keith
-Missy
-Dale

in your team?

[Waka]

Does that matter? Like I said this has NOTHING to do with my team it's about having the addendum fulfil it's purpose? at the very least it's something for Ghost to consider since all it is is a suggestion.

[Newman]

So literally all of them are in your team It would be fine if we discussed this before since everything was objective but now there is no way, no WAY of taking bias out and it seems pretty rich coming from you if half your ream is the top 3.

[Waka]

what the fuck is your problem? I would've said this no matter my team. Don't go visiting my intentions, don't ever.

I was fine with it beforehand because it seemed like a reasonable way to curb the positive skew, but then looking at the data I'm allowed to change my mind. If you're so close-minded that you can't change your opinion on something based on new information then sucks to be you.

Fact is that last season having regular points in the first episode gave an advantage. Here, it didn't and taking further steps to cull the advantage that isn't there will skew the overall results worse.

And you're wrong about my team in any case.

[Newman]

What the fuck of course I will question your fucking intentions if thats the most obvious case are you blind? OH HERES ALL THIS INFORMATION THAT SHOWS HE IS BIAS BUT NO WE CANT EVER QUESTION HIS INTENTIONS BECAUSE HE IS GOD lol fuck off I can do what I want.

If by looking at the data you mean looking at how your team scored thats fair enough.

Fact is you cant change rules midway through a game. Thats dumb. We made our bed so we sleep in it now.

I'm not.

[Waka]

You're fucking delusional it's kinda hilar.
