#24954, "RE: Black-box skills"


          

"Indeed, I have no problem with chance-based outcomes, when it's knowable that chance is what you're dealing with. If the situation is "well, if I can land an impale now I'll gain the upper hand, but if I miss I'll probably die" that's a fun thing because I'm taking an informed risk."


The Imms have just told you, repeatedly, that a lot of it is chance and mystery. You have just been informed. Now you're taking informed risks. Just like we've all been doing for years; I don't know why you've suddenly chosen now to bring it up.

Seriously, if that's really all you were worried about, you wouldn't be fighting this hard. It really sounds to me that you're really just interested in winning, which is why you have such a hard time enjoying the system as it is now. You're not winning, and you're blaming it on something else, something you have no control over.
