Originally posted by Lanny I think it's a bit more philosophically complex than that. I mean for one "chance of winning and losing" isn't really a ground truth we have access to. Like next to nothing in our lives (maybe nothing?) is carried out with absolute certainty from the actor's perspective, if that's what you take chance to mean. Turn on the light and there's a vanishing "chance" that your house has filled with flammable gas and flipping the switch will generate a spark and kill you, but we don't really call turning your light on a gamble. Athletes participating in a contest usually aren't totally certain of their own performance but we typically don't call participants in sporting contests gamblers. I'd argue gambling is term that only has a meaning in a social context: some activities are gambling and some aren't and the only thing that demarcates gambling from non-gambling is what the community of people using the term agree it means.
Yes, sure. I didn't get that specific. I actually didn't think of it like that.
CASPER said he doesn't gamble he takes calculated risks in the context of "gambling" so that's already established. What I meant is that the odds and your calculation don't change the fact it's gambling unless you are certain there is a 100% set outcome. -

Yea, fuck this. I'm mad. I have to play six billion matches to stay competitive and the game is sometimes just so fucking retarded. -

I want to cry right now. I just want to curl up and die crying. Then I want to come back as imortal merchant of death and reap the souls of those fucking EA cunts. I'd let their entire families die painful, terrible deaths if I could. You fucking...
I'm getting fucked over by my own AI teammates, EA. You fuckniggers. It's happening way too often that a fucking retarded AI shitnigger tackles someone in the box and I give up penalties without doing anything. Fix this, please. I can't.... -

2017-12-16 at 10:43 AM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Get Rekt, Faggot!Not really. It doesn't matter how well calculated the outcome might be, as soon as the player is aware that there are multiple possible outcomes that either lead to him winning or losing it is gambling.
You can always just go by the odds and base your calculation on that but as soon as you know that you either win or lose it's a gamble. More knowledge is not required to know it's a gamble. You can also do shit ton of research and only play bets that are highly in your favor, doesn't matter, still gambling.
The competence of the calculator does not impact what is and isn't gambling. If there is a chance of winning and losing, it's a bet and gambling. Not knowing if it's 0.0001% odds or 99.999% odds doesn't matter. It's both gambling as soon as you know there are two outcomes. -

2017-12-15 at 6:13 PM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Get Rekt, Faggot!The author also didn't know how to do the "&" sign and falsly capitalized many words. The author switched to another stylisation of the letter "I" and the word "SELL" which is all caps in the third row.
I assume the author wasn't the brightest. -
2017-12-15 at 6:04 PM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Get Rekt, Faggot!That's a weird way of writing the letter "I".
