From Games2018
and others
some math,
if you call it that,
about the games...
Body
Original Text
Energy
One
LightningBolt
per 1.5 minutes,
it would have been nice,
to make it
one to one
,
but they are being
Mean
,
afaict...
So math like,
in three minutes you get 2
LightningBolts
Energy
is required to
Do
Anything
aka
Work
which takes
Effort
not just
Waiting
...
Costs
Coins are
Currency
,
Emeralds
are
AlternateCurrency
(maybe think higher bills?
aka
PaperMoney
?
but in a
GoldRush
GoldStandard
is ideal...
and anything else
FrownedUpon
)
Think
WorthIt'sWeightInGold
and other compliments
...

here
It's a
MiningTown
which basically means
the
Numbers
and
FreeMarket
are put to the
HousesFavor
like
Gambling
and other
Rackets
See
Union
and
MiningDisasters
for more information,
Rockefeller
and a
MiningDisaster
were one example
before the old man
started giving out
Dimes
partially to
Control
his
PublicImage
,
and therefore the value
of stuff,
like
Stock
StandardOil
Reputation
Credibility
etc
Making
RockefellerCenter
was part
PR
and
part
BuyLowSellHigh
during the
GreatDepression
(what was so great about it?
like the
GreatWar
?)
Building
TimePlusMaterials
when
LabourCosts
were low,
was smart, and pretended
to be
Humanitarian
for a
Capitalist

RobberBarron
...
Laughter
Smiles
Hearts
in
GoldCoins
in MyHospitalByCherryPickGames2017
is sort of an
AlternateCurrency
where you can buy stuff
with
GoodWill
though that and a
Dime
Might not
get you a
CupOfCoffee
or
Tea
Costs
So things
Cost
Money
aka
Currency
and
Inflation
means it costs more,
now than when it did before,
a
Dime
bought a
PhoneCall
at a
PayPhone
,
and lots of
Candy
BackInTheDay
Deflation
is the other way,
so things
Cost
less,
Computers
DeValue
and
DePreciate
(sp?)
(vs.
APrecieate
(sp?)
as they become
Obsolete
and
PlannedObsolesence
(New
Models
Improvements
Condensed
Packed
Tighter
and
Energy
Cost
Savings
So a
Cray

Pocket

less
MTBF

and

and
DownTime
(read NoFun)
Margins
So an economic term,
Margins
are part
Profit
,
so you can make
Money
by
BuyLowSellHigh
if you have any
Control
(
Choices
)
over your
Prices
,
some games you can decide
what to sell for,
like WorldChef2016
setting the price
or just
Donating
Dishes
(gets rid of them,
GoodWill
in other
PointSystems
aka
Reputation
making Actors Stars
FamousPeople
show up
and higher
Rank
Score
and therefore
PerceivedValue
etc...
WaitingGame
Some think you can just
Wait
(...),
and it all works out,
or you can not
ForceIt
,
PlayingGames
while doing
SomethingElse
, like
WatchingTV
makes some sense,
or
TakeANap,
SleepOnIt,
like
WatchingGrassGrow
,
and
PaintDry
it is a
WaitingGame
(see WaitingGame
for more)
PlayingAnotherGame
Might mean you are an
Addict
GameAddict
to be more specific...
Circuit
A loop of things played,
say play
WordNut2018
to start out your day,
when the
DailyChallenges
is running,
8PoolByMiniCom2016
when
Waiting
on some
Points
to continue
Klondike2018
or
Stuck
So Stuck
,
like StuckInTheMud
or BrainStuck
not really defined
BrainFart
UnProductive
But WhatDoIDoNow?
HowDoIGetOutOfThis?
and other IDK
Help
type problems...
If Storage is Full
Then You CAnnot Make
/ Cook
nor pickup Anything
Saving Stuff in Queues
and MakingSpace
costs in some games,
but not others,
(Alaska/Canada assumed
Infinite Space,
just not at the Market/
what they call Town/
Home
Limits
So there are
Limits
,
not the
Math
Calculus
Limits
(meaning now
approaching infinity
small (1/x) or large)
but say
StorageLimits
a certain number of
Dishes
fit in the fridge/ heating tray/
room, and you have to
Buy
/
make more
Storage
,
or you cannot
Make
(in this case Cook
which is
Prep
(finding,
cleaning,
chopping
mixing
CookingVerbs
etc)
(Time)
Heating
presumably
Cooling
/
Freezing
(
Energy
no cost for that on that game)
and
Serving
(which is you
Running
it all over
the place,
Interaction
and sore feet/
exhaustion, etc
not modeled, there well,
just
Boredom
,
as
Manual
Labour
not
Intellectual
Stimulation
nor
Fun
?)
anything,
or
Donate
Food
(end of shift, if you closed,
instead of running 24 hours,
and no off time to play,
if at
School
,
Work
,
Sports
Games
Library,
TVWatching
,
GoofingOff
,
and other
GamePlay
Schedules
,
etc
even
Writing
Journalling
Drivel
Documenting
Farming
Blocks of 4
think
Quarters
(4 Quarters = $1
Games
Split
into
Quarters
etc)
four
Plots
in the little
GreenHouse
HotHouse
ideally a
HotHouse
works faster
than a
GreenHouse
, and it costs
Emeralds
,
AlternateCurrency
9 to 5
ratios of what to what
to make something
say pancakes, in the real world,
IRL
are one to one ratios of
grain/flour to milk/liquid
skipping oil (assumed in the pan/skillet
not the mix)
eggs (one egg per cup?)
binder
and leavening agent (baking powder
or yeast, but yeast is temperature
dependent, and breads, called quick
breads, don't do that waiting
on yeast to make bubbles
eating sugars for making something,
but adding flavours too
sourdough/ malted? etc)
so
MakingHay
is a 9 to 5 job, and ratio,
someone may have had a sense
of humour, who knows?)
9 Rye, sort of a Northern Wheat,
hardy (deals well with adverse
conditions, like weather, cold,heat,
water, etc)
Chores
So routine things
some kids do
which make
Allowance
(Money for Doing
Grunt Work
)
Planting
Collecting
RunErrands
Cleaning
ManualLabour
but doing it Smartly
and have more
Time
for yourself
Automating
and you are working
Smarter...
How Long?
So going off to school,
work, catching a bus/
ride/ etc...
How Long will it take?
I have a Boat Arrived
and need to Fill It...
It wants Plants/Fruits/
Pies etc
and How Long will that take?
Calculating
Planting in Quarters
so multiples/
modulus
3 rows of 20 produce
3 rows of 1 Pie/Bakery
3*20=60
but divide by 4
60/4 = _
15?
number of plots to plant
Cost of
20 Sugar?
25 Tomatoes
30 Watermelon
Do by when?
So have a goal
and
Work
BackWards
or subtract a time
I have to be done by
5 am
and it takes 30 minutes
so I can
GoofOff
or GetItDone
GetErDone
(gender neutral)
WaitTime
So have to
Wait
,
GetInLine
WaitYourTurn
BuzzOff
InfiiniteHold
and other
Problems
like
Stuck
OutOfTime
ReactionTime
Need to fill
Orders
and have to
Respond
React
and be
Responsible
MindFull
Attentive
and
Awake
Alert
Seemingly good qualities,
but
BurnOut
LackOfSleep
and other
Problems
Dangers
Etc
in Waiting
including
Boredom
But might be
GameTime
if
Allowed
i.e. NoRestrictions
Kids havae to Wait
for Parents,
Buses
Grades
SchoolBells
Lunch
Recess
etc
so if
Allowed
and Embedded
Watch
SmartPhone
Mental
etc
then keeping active
Like WaitingAtALight

Time Limits
All about time,
but calculating how much,
when, etc not easy,
not made easy,
made complicated
starting with 1.5 minutes
per energy,
and limits
3 Full and not saving
so losing
but WhoCares?
A WasteOfTime
Anyways
Can you get it done by _?
Are You Going to be Late?

Conclusion
Summary of experience or similar
The math is unneccesarily (sp?)
complicated, but higher level stuff
likely is...
In an imperfect world
(most non math /school
example situations)
Rounding may help
how many in an hour?
(1 per 1.5 minutes
60 minutes in an hour
so how many?
_)
30?
3/2 = 1.5
60* 3/2
180/2 = 90?
or 60* 2/3 ?
120/3 = 40?
90 or 40 is an error of over
2x
40*2 = 80 + 1/4 more of 40
to get to 90...
Limits apply
(limit 2, like stores
sales)
or MustBuy 2
for a sale price/ per...
Otherwise another price,
entry level pricing
first one is Free
or costs less,
then have to pay more,
so why would that be,
why not fixed price?
Again, unneccesarily (sp?) costly,
and confusing, meaning a racket,
trick or other complicating factor
likely for house rules making money
and cheating/ racket/ crime...
Why would a cow cost more
for more?
Packing?
can fit one cow in a pickup truck,
walk it over, but with to
they try to diverge and not follow,
herding them is more difficult
and weight limits for transport?
(DogSled not carrying a Cow...
until CowJerky and Packed
Gutted, and Cleaned,
Rendered, Cured, Dried, etc...)
Automated Play
Barn for automatic Water
generation
Until Full
Like a WaterTower,
but Heated?
Underwater
a River / Stream is right there
but so is LiveStock
so therefore PathoGens/
Microbes/ Impurities
as Mining/ Smelting/ Foundry,
Shipping and Bilge,
etc...
So Boiling, Heat/ Energy
Wood, Coal,
Twigs/Branches
but not Grasses / Drying
Dung/ Manure, Fertilizers
Instant Coral + Something
Mineral and Done)
Can the Cows just Graze
eating natural Grasses?
Instead of Hay Bails
and MakingHay??
Discussion
A place for feedback on the page presented
How much of it was really math?
What about Variables and
Definitions?
Too much Jargon?
Is Math just counting?
How many Fingers and Toes?
(YMMV?)
HigherMath and Calculus
Rates/Flows and Multiplication
Division
Object Hierarchy
Have Ingredients
and Multiple Ones
instead of 1+1+1+1
2+1+1/2+.04
and it gets more difficult
mixing numbering systems
weights and measures
and pretty soon you have
MungedMetaData2017
problems, besides accuracy
and error analysis
So measuring 1 gram
off, and doing the calculations
means 4 grams total
+/- 1 gram each measurement
instead of doing it all at once,
and that's a lot of sugar/
salt/ errors...
Send it BAck,
not you can't you took it off
your plate,
impurities in the Storage
containers Source Materials
(Chocolate in my PB,
Crumbs in my _)
Reactions not working
because had something else in there)
and other problems
(Air makes combustible,
Vacuum sealed)
Spoiled, not modeled at all,
but in a frozen environment
with snow on the ground,
big pillars of ice as a water
tower/ sliced meat roll/ slice
off some, constant skewer
...
Drill down and add
Multiply and add attributes
times, volumes, needs,
so a full recipe of Pie
includes
which needs
x Fire
y Water
and Z time?
Try some and do it small
then try teaching your little
brother/ sister/ aunt/ uncle/
classmate/ grandparent
etc.
Then trying programming
something to calculate it out
and then you see why automating
might be better...
If they are simple rules,
ForwardChain
BackwardChain
Infer
and
AI
it,
much more time
to waste in other ways,
less wasted time,
and more Fun,
but less interaction,
which at the lower levels
was cute, but got boring,
SSmurf game
better things to do,
like exercise,
errands,
and run around,
get out of the House,
and ManualLabour

20190106 Jerry
- Jerry created this page to
- note there are some numbers
- in the Games
- but with all the Headers
- trying to define terms,
- Jargon Free
- but headers are not definitions,
- nor individual pages
- and reading without CR/LF everywhere
- much less
- LargeBoldFonts
- is
- Annoying
- Header4 doesn't show in the OutLine
- so using that later in the Page
- Search and Replace Not Available
- so have to manually do each earlier one
- and compressing difficult as backspace goes
- to top of page, editor problems,
- save out as PDF/ text
- manually edit in a programmers editor
- and paste back in?
- ToAnotherPage
- Formulae not available in this
- LaTex and other SymbolicMath Systems
- Algebra
- Calculus
- and HigherMath
- Needed
-
- and using _ItAssTempleOldDate
- to make situations uniform across cases...
