A fun little clip that explains an experiment done on mice and humans, which is a great analogy of how a lot of people play Battlegrounds, think about it and complain: https://t.co/6hj0ead9iL

@ItsBen321 This is why I let mice play my games for me.

@ItsBen321 Another part of it is pattern recognition. Humans love to find patterns, but they try to find them even when there is none (e.g. It may be completely random 80/20, but we can trick ourselves to think it's something consistent/predictable like green, green, green, red, green).

@ItsBen321 And then when the pattern is eventually wrong, you can trick yourself into thinking it's just a longer sequence (e.g. "oh, it's not g,g,g,r,g. It's g,g,g,r,g,g,g,g,G,R")

@ItsBen321 I’m curious on the details of the experiment, because your key assumption is that the humans were told exactly how the system works. Without perfect information, it seems better to experiment and learn. E.g. The green button may give 100x payout. Similar to finding a new BG strat
