you misunderstood, i was saying how having limited information might lead to better decisions than having all of the information (e.g. i seem to be half-decent at vca from naked votecounts, while in-game i am very much not that)In post 49, MathBlade wrote:Votes only act as a history
They can give you an idea to read but aren’t everything
what got me thinking about that is the fact how replacements in games are often pretty good at reading the game when they rep in. and how i seem to chronically make wrong choices in yeetlo as a player, while actually being kind of good at them as a spectator.
of course, these phenomenons might be due to the players in question not having preconceived notions about the game, rather than due to working with limited information; but are those two constructs even that different? :thonk:
