Wait wait wait btm?
yeah iām hosting it itās next in the queue
Googling aside.
I assume that pool of categories will have repeating several categories?
Likeā¦ 12 people get 3 categories each from total of 12 subjects (which means on avarge there will be 3 repeates of each category).
Then they discard one of those, which means 24 are left from 12 subjects.
Whichā¦ means there will be several of repeating categories? And we are chosing from those repeating categories?
Thatās only way I see choosing actually have any sense.
Becouse if itās just chose one, next person choses other subject, thenā¦ 12 people will just use 12 subjects and it wonāt have any point in chosing at all if we all have to do all of them anyway.
So likeā¦
Seth needs to make 12 questions for each of 12 categories, right?
144 questions?
And then we discard stuff, lowering the pool down?
Thatās only logical way it makes any sense.
I admit, Iām in awe they had patience to create 144 questions.
Isnāt he giving the same questions to everyone?
Yeah, but you have 12 rounds.
And 12 categories.
144 questions neededā¦ optimally.
But I thought he was just asking one question per round to everyone, unless I misunderstood.
Yeah, but he lets each player select a category, right?
So each category might repeat if player selects so.
What would be the point of players selecting categories if it was just going to be āgo through this 12 categories and thatās itā ?
But I think there are only a certain number of each subject. He says this in the OP.
So I think it is kind of like the game Jeopardy where thereās a board with subjects and a few under each and you pick whatās left
I was speaking about this.
Everyone gets 3 uvjects to chose from.
And there is 12 topics and 12 players.
So there are bound to be repeated categories.
Ahh yes, that was a little confusing. When he says a subject is thrown out, Iām not sure he means the whole subject is eliminated. It might just be that there are a certain number of questions of each subject and you can remove one of a given subject to lessen those. But yeah, itās confusing.
If there is 12 subjects and 12 playerrsā¦ if we all eliminate one subject, there might be none at the end, lol.
Haha exactly. So itās got to mean we just remove one question of a given subject, but there will still be others that might have been kept
So yeah, I assume its bit of "gett 3 categories, chose which 2 will happen.
Which in the end means there will be pool of 24 questions of categories which ar left.
And that means there can be up to 12 times the same category. Unlikely, but yeah.
Anyway, I see little point with āplayer chose category from remaining 24ā part, as it will only delay the game and we have to go through all of those anyway.
To clarify In a 12 player game there is a total of 24 Questions.
I Think Iāll wait for at least 1 more player to join and then Iāll start it.
Unless by Friday we donāt have anymore in which case Iāll start it on Friday.
Yāknow if you wanna join you can have fun too!
Yeah, but since you donāt know what categories people will discard, it means you have 144 questions ready, right?
Thatās the part which is amusing to me. Certainly required a lot of work.
āno im coming up with them on the spotā incoming
