    Elldren, as I recall you have crazy good taste in video games - what with liking Cossacks and all (that was you right?).

    What do you think of Anno 1404?

    I have not tried it.

    And how in hell did you even remember that?

    Woo, finally home.

    As to your question, because I have only ever encountered one other person ever who has played Cossacks. So when you mentioned liking the game it rather stuck in the mind.

    I do not think that you can make claim 1. think of it this way:

    You walk into a room and bang into a table.

    Your experience is your banging into the table. your experience is not the table's coming to be.

    "Man, where the fuck did that table come from it popped out of nowhere! Goddam that hurt stupid table!"

    But your experience was not of a process of its coming to be. You posit that there was a coming to be.

    Your experience is that the table was there at the moment in which you encountered it.

    Live Nation sucks too. They advertised the price of a ticket at around sixty dollars. Then they added parking and processing fees and it ended up being eighty dollars.

    The table was always there. As far as we are concerned, it popped into existence when we hit it.

    It's important to remember that both means both can occur concurrently. In parallel.

    Describe the experience and not the picture of the experience one creates in one's mind wherein one posits the experience into a long causal chain of experiences.

    Describe what happens as experienced.

    That's way too long and complicated and heavily influenced by my cognitive psychology and perception lectures.

    I'm on my holiday I'm not writing all that.

    Maybe if I get given a small example? But no, it's too complicated.
    What happens and the "causal chain" we remember are not the same. We skip over the memory of what happens and remembe the unbroken chain. Both the table and the person have too many variables. in actuality to just blithely rattle off how we experience it because I'm both describing conscious experience AND what is happening "behind the scenes".

    If you want just the conscious at the point of collision? The table popped into existence. Why or how, whose fault it as, wether we are at fault for forgetting or someone ninjaed in a table, it doesn't matter. If we banged into the table thoughtlessly, as far as we are concerned it popped into existence at that point because otherwise we would have continued our path. We then justify why.

    see that's simply because nobody ever invented anything to kill people with using rationalism

    Agreed.

    If only there were some source from which definitions could be obtained.

    Yeah.

    One of my dudes is going to miss the next game too with a broken leg and I still don't have enough gold to replace my blitzer that died the first game.

    I just got off to a bad start, by turn two one of my guys was down and out and two had gone crowd surfing. I managed to sneak in a two turn touch down through sheer luck, but the rest was me just getting grinded down for a 2-1 dwarf win. I just couldn't really get any momentum going once the dwarfs got a cage up. Though if my catcher hadn't gone all butter-fingers on me in the second half I may have been able to tie things up.

    I'm 2-1 in the league over all though so I can't complain too much.
