i should clarify, when i write people doing bad things, it's because i am bad. they are me. more importantly, when you read about those bad things, they also become you. that's how story works. in fact, you are going to think about murder before this skeet ends. how's that feel, sicko.

Yeah no it can work well, just need to pay extra attention to relative brightness to keep visual clutter down.

And finally, you now have a randomly selected person using only the information a kid at school would know. This fits with our user requirements and successfully fixes the vulnerabilities of the previous iteration. I am eagerly awaiting your peer reviews to push this to prod.

Thirdly, After iterating the selection time (visually clockwise from the selector), take the first name of the last person selected and count the length of that name. Repeat this once more with the name of the last person selected.

Archytas @archytas.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

Secondly, we need to introduce variance that is out of the control of the selector, and changes even if the selection stays constant. For this we can assume that users are familiar with ISO 8601, and introduce a random selection start count using the rightmost digit of time available.

Archytas @archytas.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

Firstly, we are running into bias problems with the free ordering of choices. In EMMM2, the selector is always the initial selection, with selection order proceeding in visual clockwise fashion.

The main reason school children do not simply switch to a Fisher-Yates shuffle is the computation power needed to perform such operations is too high a standard for the hardware. We must work with the given standard's APIs to satisfy the operational requirements of the schoolyard.

"Eeny meeny miny moe" is a horrid random selector for a few reasons: it is incredibly easy to get desired results; The variances among the poems are known information and can be freely selected from; The selector is free to choose any start point and choose in any order.

All this to say that it's about people's general predispositions and what they are looking for. It can't be an objective statement of quality, so why treat it as one? I think the above game is not a game, but people seem to enjoy it so it's got to be a good game, just not for me. 6/6

Archytas @archytas.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

It felt like I didn't know these people who I've talked with daily for years. And my lonesome revulsion to the game made me feel like I was incapable of knowing them, or anyone. 5/6

110

Archytas @archytas.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

The intent of the game was certainly to provide simple, wacky topics to discuss and learn more about the people playing. But what I felt was misanthropic arbitrariness and existential isolation. Every time, people would pick a different random set of characteristics to judge the qualities on. 4/6

110

Archytas @archytas.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

The idea is that this is a personality predicting game. The problem is that that's not a game, that's a slot machine. The topic of oranges being peaceful or aggressive never came up in the years I've known the people I played it with, so I have no clue as to the answer. 3/6

Archytas @archytas.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

An example that illustrates this is a social deduction game I played that I was constantly annoyed at. The game is this: an object & a gradient scale of two things are given to someone. They secretly place the object somewhere between the two things, and players need to guess where it's placed. 2/6

Archytas @archytas.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

There's a post that has gotten me to think a lot about media preferences. I think it's about what people generally enjoy, what they are willing to put up with. I can think of good games that have dealbreakers for me, but clearly people enjoy it; it's not for me to presume my word is what matters.1/6

Siphon 15% of that 75% to ambiguous/bad controls. You think wouldn't matter much for puzzles but you'd be surprised the amount of puzzle games that think not explaining what does and doesn't count as "interact" is an interesting and worthy puzzle.
