Well WSF - my statement referring to hard heads on males obviously went over your head.

BTW - there's nothing that says one writer couldn't have partnered with 6 and never submitted their own entry, now is there?

 

*Slaps forehead.*

Let's not start that again.

 

Yes, the above scenario completely agrees with what I've been saying:

The number of authors who submitted both joint and solo stories = 2
The number of joint stories = 1
2 is greater than 1, and 1 is an integer greater than zero

But it does not meet the conditions of the scenario you previously put forth.

"One author from the previously counted pool" this is fine
"plus one additional author" <-- PLUS means they did not come from that pool, yet you're taking them from that pool

No, I'm not assuming that.

It is completely possible for there to be up to six joint submissions. I said as much previously.

Once more,

That's not what you're showing here. You're showing one joint submission, but TWO authors also submitting a solo entry. 2 =/= 1

The rules say they cannot.

Singular form used, unless I'm misinterpreting that it would prohibit a person from being a team member on six stories.

Unless they pull 2 1/2 pairs of socks out of their drawer.

 

Still against the rules.

I'm not saying that rule-breaking is impossible, however it wouldn't fit with WSF's claim.
If he knew an account was a sock and that's why the condition "less entrants than entries" applied, he'd be obligated as a SOP to disqualify those entries, which would then make that condition no longer apply.

 

You don't take teasing well, do you?

 

I do, when I recognize it as such. Which, unfortunately, I did not.

 

x/y minus q/z multiplied 85 divided by 5 plus 2.5 multiplied by the square root of 84 = 12 writers confined to a 3 cubic foot padded cell

 

:wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall:
​

Let's try something much simpler

1. Condition - A writer may write one story by themselves and one story as a team effort
2. Condition - Three stories
3. Statement - More stories than writers

The combination of these three items leaves only one possibility : two writers with solo works and both working as a team for the third story.

If you have problems with the logic above then you need to take another logic course with a MUCH better instructor than you used/abused/ignored the first time.

If you do NOT have problems with the logic above then you can add whatever combination you enjoy to build the pool of stories to 13 as long as you do not use more authors than stories again.

@ejls
LOL
Please put MY cell at the other end of the complex.

 

Didn't you hear? We're assigned to the co-ed dorm.

 

As long as I can have you on one side and HP on the other (and AT somewhere in the mix) I will be happy.
[drooooool]

 

Oh, I got that. I thought you were saying the 2.5 pairs of socks post was teasing.

Anyway, maybe this will put it to rest.
Let me phrase it now as a two-part prediction of the revelation:
a) There is at least one but not more than six team stories in this CAW
b) The number of authors who worked on two stories in this CAW is greater than the number of team stories in this CAW

As a prediction people are free to disagree by posting their own prediction. But that will not change my prediction.

 

a) Agreed - but can you figure out which story was written by two different writers.

b) I think I agree, but math is not my strong point. I had to read this statement several times.

 

You said you wouldn't tell anyone about my super secret evil master plan.

Or with twelve. :-E

 

Hypothetically speaking, of course.




Shhhhhhhhh - our secret.

 

No, I'm not going there. I don't even want to start guessing which story/stories are team efforts.
There are only three authors in this CAW (at least I think they're in it- we really don't know, do we? ) that I'm familiar with. Even if I somehow managed to nail those three down, it would still leave too many "unknowns".

Look at Darthel0101's post, maybe his explanation makes more sense to you.
In his example, there is one team story, and both authors in that team story also submitted a solo story (i.e. they worked on two stories each)
one team story, two authors worked on two stories
two is greater than one, so it agrees with what I've been saying

 

Yeah, I'm not sure that's what ejls was referring to, but I see you got that.

Heh.
Hehe.
Hehehe.
Hehehehe.

That is me chuckling quietly to myself.







Ok, people, seriously, this is just a bit silly. Don't quote me on this since I'm saying it under the influence of cough and pain medicine, but stop guessing. You're giving yourself headaches, and making me do maths (which I hate) and unless I accidentally read incorrectly, nobody has managed to guess correctly so far.

Or maybe somebody has, and I'm just trying to confuse you again

 

:-E
