(√(-shit))2
...That isn't a real number.
It is if either one or all of s, h, and t are imaginary. Or it "shit" is real.
To be fair, it takes two to tango. If people are annoyed, they should either stop enabling him, or be just as pissed at the ones who enable him.
I've said the same thing. For some reason, people don't seem to like me saying that.
I managed to type out about half of the replies to Syv before I somehow accidentally reloaded the page. Goddammit. Well, a lot of it was pointing out assumptions and mistakes he made, so...
GWG, you seem annoyed about assumptions. Look at your statements.
They're not expecting us to know about their ambush;
Why not? An elevator arrives and the doors don't open. Seems fishy to me.
The doors haven't not opened for long yet. A few seconds, which is probably all it is, might seem a bit
odd, but it's not enough time to become
suspicious.
They have lots of soldiers.
Where was that ever said? Could be a heavily protected dude with a really big gun. Or an amp specialist.
Not terribly relevant to my argument, to be honest. Especially since, regardless of what's on the other side of that door, they have lots of soldiers
somewhere.
One, elevators have plenty of room for three people,
How do you know that this elevator isn't smaller? Did PW describe it when you got in?
No, but in lieu of description, one should assume the standard.
Assuming the sods are prone.
That makes it sound like you are assuming they aren't. We can't be sure of what position they are taking, and making yourself a smaller target makes sense.
Again, my plan doesn't hinge on them being un-prone. It would be nice, but it doesn't matter.
It could be the only entrance to the bridge.
Why? It works tactically for boarding. But say your ship gets damaged and the bridge is cut off. Suddenly your command personnel are stuck if they are on the bridge.
I was pointing out an assumption he made. Again, it's not relevant to my plan. I'm not sure how you would think it was.
All the more effective for us to run through
Syvarris mentioned this, but why are you assuming they are close enough to run into without getting shot.
If they aren't, then unless that's an insanely big room, there aren't that many. If there aren't that many...well, that just seems
odd for a force guarding the bridge.
And my assumptions tend towards the pessimistic. If there aren't many soldiers, great! We won't be being shot at as much.
To clearly state my argument so that it can't be warped: You use assumptions, and because of that you should not complain about other people's assumptions.
The difference? My assumptions are not critical to my plan.
And while we are at it, you called Syvarris a moron to discredit one of his arguments. Don't you dislike Ad Hominem as well?
I called syvarris a moron because I was annoyed with him, not to discredit his arguments.
