This is just nondeterminism, right? Like, there are multiple branches we can choose to go down, and we're just nondeterministically selecting which of the branches to take? I don't see how this is deterministic at all...

I wonder how much of it is that, verses you're just not prepping for it because now all your practise is for ots instead. I'm not claiming that I'm at all consistent at GCs, but I feel like it must be that the most consistent gc players are also the ones who properly practise and prep on bo1 ladder

Didn't you come second at a regional back when they were bo1 cts swiss?

The intelligences all map onto each other - things are computable by humans iff computable by other intelligences (by trivially simulating a Turing machine on paper) but they don't have to look similar - lambda calculus looks very different to Turing machines, which look very different to brains
