it's also true that the competition isn't made to determine who's best


what???


Competition in biology, ecology, and sociology, is a contest between organisms, animals, individuals, groups, etc., for territory, a niche, or a location of resources, for resources and goods, mates, for prestige, recognition, awards, or group or social status, for leadership.

you're still not establishing why this is unfair, or worth caring about


perhaps that bearguru subbed in a bunch of dudes with trophies to finish his round against a bunch of noobs

its true in this sense that a trophy won by multiple players on an account isn't going to represent the skill level of the account's owner

it's also true that the competition isn't made to determine who's best

Yeah I'll give you that, the sub-in in his analogy was fresh meaning he had an advantage which isn't the case with BearGuru's subs they just all have big egos lol. however to pretend that you didn't understand what he's saying is just ignorant

are you asserting that all players are equal. furthermore, are you asserting that players exist who are not below me?

I could literally make an analogy about being in a pie eating contest however you have your friend come in mid contest because you get a phone call that your wife is in labour and he finishes the contest and wins..

The point is still there.


the only difference is that the hypothetical situation the sub-in has a clear advantage, which apparently makes it completely "nonsensical" as opposed to just, not-that-good

Even if I did play tennis, it doesn't mean I'm being elitist by pointing out that the analogy is completely absurd.

i'm very elitist, about my internet mafia hobby. i try to act superior to those who make nonsensical analogies

You can try to be condescending however you're both wrong lol

it doesn't need to be changed to a chess tournament. The similarities is the fact that you have someone else winning a competition and you're still getting the fame.

Devante says

it's an analogy, doesn't need to be taken literally.


Analogies imply that there's at least some semblance of a similarity between the things being compared, which is clearly not the case when comparing internet mafia to tennis.

lmao


the point is still made and the analogy is still understood despite your elitism about your hobbies
