what russel said was that when u explain a joke u end up by trying to make explicit the intrinsic elements which make it funnier. The joke is all about the sharing of funny elements which get funnier by the very language which is used. In the case of this last post of russel the joke was that he started by saying that a commedian said that explanation is good for jokes, while ending in a sarcastisc note point to the fact that no comedian would say such a thing.
If u havent understood my explanation, the very content of ti shows how u shouldnt explain a joke. so, both the content and the form of my explanation explain why u shouldnt do what i just did
Could you please explain your confusion over Mikkelsen's post x? It doesn't make sense to me that you would be confused over something so easy to understand.
Oh, I thought Mikkelsen meant: "I haven't been using Electric Purple for very long, so it's not ME who's bringing down the average win rate of that color."
One time I was a playing a 75% luck game and I attacked a territory with 2 neutral armies with 2 of my armies from 2 different territories and got the territory :) 1 beat 1 twice in a row :D
Didn't realize Gray is so heavily used. I started using it to get away from the colors that are hard to distinguish, but now I am running into several people I play with a lot that use gray. I'm gonna switch I think so I don't have to keep picking a color in half my games.
