This is pretty ridiculous overall; chess is not supposed to be this hard

silverspawn · « **Reply #5901 on:** October 02, 2023, 07:22:02 am »

even the games I win are so much harder than they should be

silverspawn · « **Reply #5902 on:** October 02, 2023, 07:29:33 am »

16. M/L

Ok that's enough let's try again tomorrow, or mb later

silverspawn · « **Reply #5903 on:** October 02, 2023, 07:34:53 am »

Ok, so

1. Split brain patients have unified visual fields
2. As demonstrated by Grossberg in excruciating detail, there is tons of processing happening that integrates information between both hemispheres
3. Therefore, visual qualia is computed by non-synaptic effects.

Well that's it -- I've solved it! A conclusive proof that consciousness is based on holistic effects in three simple steps.

Unfortunately I don't actually know whether integration between both hemispheres is happening in blindsight patients. But I suspect it is.

And the other problem is that the corpus callosum that connects both halves of the brain is not the only physical connection, contrary to popular belief

Nonetheless this argument is certainly worth pursuing.

Specifically for #2, what's been demonstrated is that information from both halves of the visual field are integrated, and the left half is said to be processed by the right hemisphere and vice-versa

New imaginative day!

1. ◯/W
2. ◯/W
3. ◯/W
4. ◯/D
5. ◯/W
6. ◯/W
7. ◯/W

Leave it to me to draw a game with 1 minute vs. <2 seconds. My opponent played great and at least deserved a draw but winning streak is still ruined

silverspawn · « **Reply #5907 on:** October 02, 2023, 01:34:08 pm »

Let's instead try to have a streak of at least 10 games without Ms.

Sounds pretty misogynistic.

silverspawn · « **Reply #5909 on:** October 02, 2023, 02:48:29 pm »

yet it must happen

8. ◯/W
9. ◯/W

silverspawn · « **Reply #5910 on:** October 02, 2023, 03:23:34 pm »

10. ◯/L
11. ◯/W

Ok, best case scenario. I get the 10 ◯s and I don't have to be mad about the draw because the winning streak was ruined anyway.

silverspawn · « **Reply #5911 on:** October 02, 2023, 03:25:06 pm »

This was how it was supposed to be from the start; the M is only for mistakes that I should almost never make, like hanging a pawn with lots of time or getting a piece trapped or missing an easy tactic. I don't even count hanging a pawn later in the game when things are stressful.

silverspawn · « **Reply #5912 on:** October 02, 2023, 06:02:10 pm »

12. M/W
13. M/L

I got bored. But these don't really count since I was barely trying

silverspawn · « **Reply #5913 on:** October 03, 2023, 03:00:36 am »

Actual new day!

1. ◯/L (got unlucky but some bad luck was actually overdue)
2. ◯/W (1867 opponent who also blitzes out opening moves? NO PROBLEM. Well actually that was very close and pretty lucky, but still.)

silverspawn · « **Reply #5914 on:** October 03, 2023, 03:42:03 am »

3. ◯/W
4. ◯/W

silverspawn · « **Reply #5915 on:** October 03, 2023, 04:38:39 am »

5. M/W that one counts; ◯ streak is over

silverspawn · « **Reply #5916 on:** October 03, 2023, 06:57:04 am »

6. M/W
7. ◯/W

silverspawn · « **Reply #5917 on:** October 03, 2023, 07:11:01 am »

8. M/W ah %(#&
Also retroactive 4. ◯/W since I seem to have invented a game that didn't exist

silverspawn · « **Reply #5918 on:** October 03, 2023, 07:11:27 am »

wait no I mean M/L %(#&²

silverspawn · « **Reply #5919 on:** October 03, 2023, 07:12:12 am »

Wins are good to avoid frustration but too many wins lead to overconfidence

silverspawn · « **Reply #5920 on:** October 03, 2023, 01:07:43 pm »

9. M/L
10. ◯/L
11. ◯/W
12. ◯/W
13. ◯/W
14. ◯/L
15. ◯/L
16. M/W
17. M/W
18. M/W
19. M/D
20. ◯/W

ALRIGHT BACK TO 1800. 1111188888888888800000000000000000000!. Again.

That was very lucky, I started playing poorly, and it just worked out anyway.

Also the universe thought it was funny letting me go to 1799 first and then giving me a draw. If that person had had just a tiny bit more rating, it would have been +1 instead of 0.

silverspawn · « **Reply #5921 on:** October 03, 2023, 01:09:35 pm »

I don't know if this is true, but I feel like the correlation between ◯ and W is way weaker than it should be, and for some reason I've just been way more lucky in games where I blunder.

silverspawn · « **Reply #5922 on:** October 03, 2023, 01:12:00 pm »

And the degree to which ◯s and Ms cluster together strongly suggests that I could do a lot by not playing after Ms

silverspawn · « **Reply #5923 on:** October 03, 2023, 04:01:02 pm »

21. ◯/W playing another game was very stupid but I did well. I think I need to phase out chess again soon

This album is really cool. Like it a lot more than I expected.

That is an extremely large number.
