Re: Is Turkey too powerful?
"Vastly" higher than 12% openings of an attack on Austria ... says 75%?? which is very different than a typical game. A couple of mods have said in the past that bots programmed to learn ... but they can't be as this is normally such a disastrous opening for Italy (not always - but normally) How ar...

Re: Is Turkey too powerful?
Oh, and those games are from PlayDiplomacy, which, AFAIK, doesn't have bots... So those are (theoretically) human-only games. That might make sense that there's such a difference in the percentages. I don't what games the AI bots were trained on here, but it would be interesting to see the differen...

Re: Is Turkey too powerful?
Design flaw by developers of programming Italy to attack Austria a high percentage of the time makes Turkey very powerful in lots of bots games... I've been doing some analysis of a diplomacy moves dataset that includes over 20,000 games -- and 12% of the games, the first move from VEN is to TRI. 3...

Re: How can I cancel a Bot game?
My advice is to always immediately cancel a game as Austria when Italy attacks = so the Bots don't learn that this is a feasible attack (although I still strongly believe a design flaw...) I didn't think the classic bots were learning from "new" games that they play, only from the games they were p...

Re: Twenty Questions - 4 Score & Bumfitt - Multiball Madness!
For C, is this creature a carnivore?
If the answer is no, I will guess Dolly the (cloned) Sheep (since you got me thinkin about cells with Henrietta Lacks).

Re: Twenty Questions game 92
That's not necessarily true, based on what Darg asked, right?

For example, someone born in 1799 could be a "yes" to Darg's question, correct?dargorygel wrote: ↑Fri Feb 10, 2023 4:04 pmWas she alive (discounting reincarnation or time travel) Between the years 1800 and 2023?

Re: Twenty Questions game 92
No, this is not another quibbling geography question. Was this person royalty/member of a noble or aristocratic family? I feel like this is implied by the famous parents but there are multiple interpretations. This is a good question in this context, I would also have asked. Agreed, that's the firs...

I guess we're bored of this then. Bored isn't the right word. More like... vaguely uninspired to try to grind through all the possibilities. That being said, free guess: Jack Lemmon?

Free guess: since the other two "great unifiers" have been guessed, I'll try the third, Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
