For those looking for a good laugh, check these out from the Puzzles and Other Games Forum. They're pretty funny.

***NSFW***MS Paint XXX Game Chain 1

Note the first picture in Chain 1 got deleted because it was inappropriate (and I got infraction points) but was readded with a link to the pic (there isn't real nudity)

***NSFW***MS Paint XXX Chain 2

The game basically involves taking a picture, and it goes through a chain of 20+ people, where the next person describes it in 10 words and then the next person draws it in MS Paint. Pretty hilarious.

I agree completely that it is objectively worse for the victim and people related/near to the victim.

But I still don't see how they are different for the assailant. If you are attempting to kill somebody the outcome doesn't seem to make much difference to me in terms of intent or ethical considerations. It is more wrong to shoot somebody if they happen to die than if they are saved at the hospital?

Murder is seen as different simply because it is so permanent. Otherwise, attempts are usually punished with a similar sentence to a completed offense.

as a citizen, I generally approve of this philosophy; as a defense attorney, it was a serious PITA.

Those are interesting insights into how it works in reality. Thx

Why do I kill with play money and suck with real money?

Is it cause of the donks? Do people really tighten up that much between 100/200 play and .01/.02 real?

Hey Venice,

I don't mean this in an offensive way at all, so please don't interpret it that way but...

Posts like this are what make me surprised to that you have struck out on your own in business. You lack a clear resentment of authority.

Probably just because you are a really nice guy though IRL though. What drew you to leave the shackles when you clearly don't mind them that much? Perhaps you do mind them but obligingly play the rules to a tee. A lot of successful entrepreneurs I know have the spark of what they call, "unemployability."

Perhaps it was other factors that drew you away... financial freedom? The desire to do it better than the people you used to work for? Something else?

I'd personally find it pretty interesting to hear your story as I'm very interested in the topic as well. I love hearing other peoples motivations and the psychology behind it. Pretty sure lots of other people ITT are interested in business too, which is why I didn't PM.

Hope you will be willing to share

Primarily having multiple skill sets that nobody cares about, no matter how many millions of dollars you could save an organization. They'd rather go out of business or complain it costs too much money to make anything anymore. In my first industry, 20% of the jobs have disappeared this decade and Obama is working to finish off the second one.

The only skill set in demand in these times is government bureaucrat, road worker, or tort lawyer.

TBH, got tired of working for idiots and having to tell people they lost their job. Just too old and couldn't work up enthusiasm for ideas that didn't work the first time 20 years ago. Showed the boss his plans weren't working and didn't work in the past, either. He ended up replacing me and reversing all the work I did and put themselves back to where they were before I joined, with the losses to show for it.

My replacement though is still a valued member of the team. Decided I didn't want to go through that cycle again.

FWIW, I seem to be unable to beat 50nl now either.

It's not about tightening up. Either your opponents play better when there's real money involved (even just pennies) or you play worse. Probably it's a combination of the two.

Play money is good for learning the mechanics of the games, and not much else IMO.
