Fundamental Theorem of FTR

[swiggidy]

The more posts in a thread, the less content the thread possesses. If the thread contains content, it is unlikely to become very long.

Discuss? (unless it's hijacked I put the o/u on this thread at 15)

[Lukie]

agree, wholeheartedly.

OMG THE SNOZZBERRIES TASTE LIKE SNOZZBERRIES


DO YOU SEE WHY?

[Warpe]

The more posts bigred makes, the less content his posts are likely to have.

fmp

[a500lbgorilla]

Um, some of you dont remember the day soupie unloaded his guide to MTT poker.

Long thread jam packed full of all the knowledge of the poker universe. The forum almost collapsed under the gravitational pull this enormous mass of content was possessing.

But thank god we're well past that these days.

[bigred]

Why did my post come out so late, it was supposed to be number 2 to ruin the thread.

Cause you need two hands to type fast

You would understand if you knew I had the FTR pool party as my wallpaper.

I did not just read that

no matter how many times I say it it won't get out of my head

I for some reason thought there might be content. I have much to learn about FTR.

No, yu were right. With one post there was plenty of content but as they get added you can see the content starting toi disappear

[Lukie]

post #17

but the original post was flawed, because there was never really any content to this thread. AND it got hijacked.

Don't double negatives cancle each other out, making the o/u on this thread 15?


SWIGGIDY LOSES, PAY UP SONNNNNNNNNN.

[swiggidy]

A fundamental theorem is totally content.

Did you have the over? I'll transfer your money in Poker Stars when I get home.

[LimpinAintEZ]

maybe this just shows poker is a simple game - And everything we REALLY need to read is already stickied...The rest is just practice and playing tons of hours (that is the best way to learn, isn't it?) - But does that mean we don't need FTR? I think it's okay for a website to be informative and social - Think how many dropouts we would have if everything was a chart or every post had to follow all guidelines for interesting decisions blah,blah blah - I have nothing of real content to add - i'm thinking but the light goes out quicker and quicker these days....Im working my way (in my head) through my Thank You FTR post someday soon - Wanted to get a few thousand more hands in though....

Alright - Here is a question that just might add content (if not, i don't care - i didn't start this damn thread

How many people here think about FTR more than a normal person might? I tend to think about my game a lot - Im always trying to recall hands in my head...Right now I haven't played in about 2 weeks, but i'm thinking all the time - nevermind - Better question coming...

WHAT IS THE BEST/MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU HAVE LEARNED AT FTR????

here is mine - I always thought just because I had won a few tourneys (some big ones) that I was a decent player - When I found FTR I started realizing that there were some REALLY damn good people...I went and bought Poker Tracker and started reviewing hands - I started to think about what players were doing and why they were doing it (also, why I was doing things) - I learned to multi-table 6handed NL when I used to be able to only do 2 tables....And i've been reading/playing poker for like 2 years now - I guess the biggest realization I had from FTR was that I was nowhere NEAR serious enough - Until your actually a WINNING player, your not good....I had clocked some nice wins, but i sure wasn't a consistent winning player...Since I found FTR I sure have become a hell of a lot better though - so there is mine

why am i helping someone elses thread anyway kidding - lets get some content -

[bigred]

I started out serious and have grown to the beast that I am today.

It's true. http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...057&highlight=

[LimpinAintEZ]

that was pretty serious - well, i would go answer there, but then i would probably get in trouble for bumping an old thread (and we might be on the verge of trouble already for the current one)

did you ever figure it out? Or did you just say fuck it and became everyones favorite target?

[bigred]

I learned how to let go of hand after about two weeks of play.

[LimpinAintEZ]

heres another one that wows me - FNORD, the 4th member of FTR, has 11k+ posts since he joined - He has over 1.1 million words and has posted an average of 12.24 posts per day -

you wanna talk about some content, maybe we should just talk about a little thing called "dedication" - FNORD is our shining example - He is my Mecca

[LimpinAintEZ]

now were really losing all content -

[Xianti]

Never expect "content" here in the Jungle (FTR Community), and you'll never be disappointed.

QFT

The holy thread of randomness is the one, and perhaps only, exception.

[midas06]

what's below "no content"

[Warpe]

what's below "no content"

"drivel"

[bigred]

And below that is warpe.

Sink down 5 more levels and you'll get to my domain.

Sink down 50 more levels and you'll get to my domain.

[bigred]

Damn, I hate when I leave out the 0. Thx Lukemeister

[Lukie]

no problem.

Basically, no content = 0. Warpe content = -1. Bigred content is comparable to absolute zero = -50. The highest level of content most threads on FTR reach is about .6, on my -50 thru 50 scale.

Speaking of which, on the standard -50 - 50 scale, where does the holy thread of randomness stand?

It's a random number, but definitely negative.

always looking for a pat on the back, eh? i'll give it a 5 - Its pretty solid, and interesting - the low content could be a problem but that is not the intent of your thread - Considering warpe is -1, a 5 seems pretty strong....

[midas06]

no Lukie's thread is about -0.3. Highish rating because most people have posted in it.

What about this thread?

[Lukie]

a new scale is necessary

[bigred]

ARGH I'M A PIRATE

[Lukie]

For most people, this would call for a "hey bigred, stop trying to be funny!", but we all know for certain that's not the case...

[Galapogos]

I actually thought that was just what this thread needed...

But then I think most threads here could use a little dash of pirate in them.

[swiggidy]

ARGH I'M A PIRATE

pirates are gay

[Reidak]

ARGH I'M A PIRATE

Nice bump, Xianti would be proud.

thats hilarious.

[bigred]

You would understand if you knew I had the FTR pool party as my wallpaper.

I laughed for awhile when I reread this. I love you, bigred.

you big gay..

Leave me be, Mr. Hardaway.

thats hilarious.

LMAO

k. not 17th, but i was going to say something... just don't recall what it was now.

upon review... I've found it.

...Right now I haven't played in about 2 weeks, but i'm thinking all the time - nevermind - Better question coming...

I don't see how anyone could actually go 2 weeks without playing!?! My longest stretch is 3 days in the last 5 yrs or so. Even then I'm not counting tourneys, just rings. And that was just cuz i was bumming about Neteller freezing my $$.

[Miffed22001]

the fundamental theorem of FTR is as follows







Edit: please dont ban me!

[Xianti]

oh, man... that's good stuff.

[wufwugy]

i would let you all run a train on me for a mil

[Bmxicle]

so true that i will have to make a post.
