We should also check for any correlation between the number of helicopters flying over and the amounts of Td I get in the CO after drinking Pepsi.

Else we can't say it's not broken.

My assessments of you and predictions of your behavior have been quite accurate, though I am the first to say that gifted insight is not a requirement for that. I never assumed they would be relevant to you, since you cannot change.


Meh, the only one that seems to be pushing for you to be banned is you, I assume because that would give you better closure in your mind than people mocking you with helicopter and Dr Pepper comparisons (hint, don't try to drink one in the other). Treating you as a joke (or ignoring you) is where you always end up. Here you are.

I will give you credit where it is due - and that is that these threads usually last 1-2 days before the OP vanishes or the OP turns hostile and gets banned or the OP goes weird troll etc. You had it going for nearly 2 weeks, and nearly 2,000/? posts, and also got a ton of futile work done for you (since you were never going to be satisfied). You are pretty much a standout for that (last time I remember work like this being done was many years ago when spadebidder did some for a horrid, toxic riggie who took all the work, mocked it, disregarded nearly all the data, and cherry picked the one mild outlier result he wanted to show how he was being screwed). In the end, while your reality is this obsession, one you can talk about for years to come happily, that is nobody else's reality, and other people will just get bored of it and you after a short while.

If you want to get banned to go out in some glory in your mind then go to the thread where people ask for self bans, or ask a mod here to ban you. I don't think you should be banned for your posts to date, so you will have to get that done on your own. I will not care if you are banned or not.

You were a genuine source of short term amusement for me, but all things come to an end, and there is not much more fun that can be squeezed out of interacting with you. You were fun, now you are boring. That's how these threads always turn out. If others play along with you for a while, hopefully they do so for their own amusement and not to actually try to make you understand anything.

You should get some professional help for your mental situation, but I will not pretend to care whether you choose to do so or not. In the end that, along with whether to continue your obsession, is your choice to make, and you are the only one that experiences the long term effect of that. The rest of us get off easy after having fun for a week or two at your expense. I don't have much else for you, so odds are reasonable (at least ?/?) that this will be my last post to you.

All the best.

You actually got a very fair amount of indulgence for your unfounded theory. When you propose a hypothesis with no basis in reality whatsoever, based solely on your subjective and flawed observations, you should not expect the amount of patience already given you. But it was an interesting math exercise to pass the time for people on here who like to solve that kind of problem, even though everyone but you already knew that how you choose or preshuffle random decks doesn't change anything. Random is random. Doing it twice doesn't make it more or less random. Literally everyone on this forum knew that but you.

It's also quite irritating when you say things like 1/2 does not equal 2/4, since numbers are abstractions wholly unconnected to the physical objects you may be counting. Numbers are just numbers, and ratios can be expressed in an infinite number of exactly equal ways.

What is interesting is that a few of you have agreed with me earlier in the thread, in that x was not equal to y. This was the fundamental question of my notion.
Answering in agreement to that was agreeing something is broke, what that something is, is still unclear.
For all we know, the people being ''hostile'' could be doing their paid job for poker companies. Why do they feel it so important to defend the ''machine'' ?

One test and the thread collapses when there is several more tests . Are you people or the ''machine''?

We're all reptilian overlords that protect online poker from the truth to milk as much money as possible. We also guard the south pole to prevent people from finding out the earth is actually flat and that the oceans are fake.

No one agreed with you in a way that supports your proposition.

Serious question: Are you declaring war on math - specifically statistics and probability - the way it is currently understood?

Cool, we've reached the conspiracy/paid-actor portion of the thread.

If I was reading correctly, the times when people 'agreed' with you were when you were actually unsure what you were truly asking.

I haven't seen anybody agree with your basic tenet that independently shuffled decks of cards become connected and dependent if done in groups and placed in a queue. Without that belief, I don't see what any tests would show other than continued pattern-searching.

That being said, I have learned a bit about statistics from this thread.

In a way yes.

x=1,2 (set)

y (results of 3 times random shuffled x picking first value each time)
a
a
a


a=1/2 how many 1's are in y?

f:a{x}=1/2

f:a{y}=?/3

OK then. Good luck with that!

I imagine people like OP are actually locked up somewhere in a place where they can't harm themselves. I also think OP spends the majority of his waking hours walking up against a cushioned wall.

Seriously, don't do this again. We've been down this road, and seemingly got to the end. I'm pretty sure nobody here is going to want to revisit the same tired nonsense.

My premise was agreed with by several people, if the premise is correct then so is the rest, I only have to find the right test.

I noticed you avoided trying to give an answer.

VLADIMIR:
Well? Shall we go?

ESTRAGON:
Yes, let's go.

They do not move.

There is a conflict of logic.

This OP is the worst in history. And I include all of BBV.

Nice

FYP

...and, certainly a contender. Especially since we are back to square one it seems with the same X and Y "logic".

No no no of all the internet, in history. And also any hand written rant ever.

Any thread with this tale by whosnext is a worthwhile thread, even with the as expected clunker ending

https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/s...&postcount=455

Nope. No one agreed with you. Not one single person. Unless you actually thought whosnext was being serious.

Of course, that's just when you ask the question related to your special pkdk probability math. When you ask the question incorrectly, like you just did, you will get universal agreement. When you ask us to tell you how many A are in a random sample, we can't give you an exact number, of course. But when you ask the question that properly reflects your special math - what is the probability of selecting an A from column Y - you'll get the same disagreement once again. Everyone knows the answer is 1/2, but you will insist it is ?/3.

You've proven once again that my earlier assessment was correct (and others have said similar things):

I have to admit, I was quite surprised you admitted you were wrong. But that surprise quickly turned to a realization that nothing had really changed. As I read through the posts, I was preparing to post asking if you were ready to go back and see where you went wrong in your math since your premise had been proven wrong, but no, of course not. No, even though everyone has told you that your math is wrong, and now the premise you came up with based on that math has been proven wrong, of course the math can't be wrong - you just didn't put forward the right premise based on your amazing math that you believe no one else can understand.

You are a lost cause. Completely, utterly, hopelessly lost.

Yes, that was an awesome post.

With all due respect you agree with me again then contradict your agreement.
You give the 1/2 answer to x. You are not answering the y question .

?
?
?

how many 1s in y? you dont know, what is the chance of a 1 from y, you don't know.



logical statements :

how many 1s in x ? the answer 1

What is the chance of a 1 from x? the answer 1/2


How many 1s in y? you dont know

What is the chance of 1 from y? you dont know

Note: I have not asked you what is the chance of the one you pick being a 1? which is 1/2

What is the chance that this is Groundhog Day?

OK, now I'm just wondering what is wrong with you. Seriously. We've had this discussion 843 times already. I don't know how many 1s are in Y, but I know the odds of pulling a 1 from y is 1/2. You think it's ?/3. We know. We all get it, we understand, but we also know you're wrong. Not doing this any more with you, as it's pointless.

I'd say at least 1/2, but OP would argue that it's ?/3.

This is true but only because no one drinks Pepsi
