2019/20 Roster Thread XXXI

[Starat327]

Ok, so I had to see if I needed to keep it pruned or not. Then it became, "Can I break this?"

The natural place to start was to go into the threads in long-forgotten corners where people pump up their children as prospects and Ignore everyone in the thread just in case they ever wander out of their pens. As I said, my last guess was 2⁸, or 256, but we're still good to go. This train will never stop. One bad word about tamales and I'm hitting 258.

The fact that you are actively seeking out people to ignore amuses me to absolutely no end. I'm actually cackling right now.

 

[Striiker]

Remember when I asked you if there was a cap on the Ignore List and you had no idea? I'm now confident there isn't one. I have scienced it. It became principle to see if I could break it eventually, but my last reasonable breakpoint was above 256. Still good adding more.

JoJo is out here having a conversation with all of 5 posters on the flyers forum and thats it. I can dig it.

And yet the list doesn't include some of the worst ones

 

[Starat327]

Could you further explain the bolded

Your FoodTakes/60 sucks.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Might be a 64 bit limit.

Yep, in which case I'm never hitting it. SCIENCED.

Pretend I've never heard about food.

I believe in you, Jojo. You can do it.

Any item used to, in some capacity, nourish your body. I.E Reese's.

 

[Magua]

Thank you.


Could you further explain the bolded as well

'Phil Myers' is the given name of a homo sapien, a self-aware bipedal flesh monster, from New Brunswick, Canada, which is an incomprehensibly goofy country -- a country is a political state based on taxes and unifying pseudo-history -- who plays hockey -- a sport, primarily based on intangibles and size, played on ice with a vulcanized rubber puck disc thing -- on planet Earth, the third planet from the Sun, which is the star at the center of our Solar System. 'Was' is a word -- a sometimes meaningful element of speech or writing -- that is the 1st and 3rd person singular past of 'be.' Therein, Phil Myers was over-performing. Now, he is not.

My theory is he keeps them unignored so he can learn what its like to have a PhD and/or be in the top 98% of intellect, so that he can one day, hopefully, be able to have a conversation with his parent's neighbor.

Interesting. Very interesting. I have some math to do using all the information you've just given me. This will take some time.

I'm 99% sure I got everyone who doesn't like dogs, but if you can complete my collection please feel free.

So you're saying we should trade Ghost for Rinaldo

@Striiker told me he doesnt like dogs.

Jojo knows that's not true. I regularly make him send me pictures of his dog.

Its a ruse, Jojo. Don't believe it.

This gif makes me wildly uncomfortable.

The Math is still running. Unfortunately the system is slow because it has to devote a lot of processor time to managing JoJo's ignore list.

"Hagg has played very well lately and has been more effective than Myers."

Over the last 7 games.....

Myers: +1.5 relxGF%, +5.8 relCF%
Hagg: -10.3 relxGF%, -15.4 relCF% (w/ a 100% on-ice save %)
​

I remember when Myers was scratched for games this season while leading the team in +/- and racking up points, though having trouble driving play. Process over results, yes? Not only that, taking out Myers means you likely shuffle 2 pairings. Myers has had his ups-and-downs, though never as consistently down as Ruprecht, but it sure would be a strange time to yank him after his play has trended up. But as Shakira would sarcastically say, "I'm in the lineup tonight. You know my +/- don't lie. And I'm starting to feel it's right. All the attraction, the tension. Don't you see, baby, +/- is perfection?"

These are just made up numbers.

@Striiker told me he doesnt like dogs.

It’s not that he doesn’t like them, he’d just try to turn them into sandwiches...

 

[Beef Invictus]

@Starat327 OK the Math is in.

Based on the information you've given me, using your own words, it is mathematically proven that Reeses suck. Sorry, that's math.

I've scienced it:

Ignoring math is how we got Castle Bravo and Jody Shelley.

Ole Fish Invictus has a mind of its own.
