JD: Tragedy of the Blazers' Edge commons

Tragedy of the Blazers' Edge commons:
Consider a pasture used for grazing cows which is used collectively by many herders. Each herder is trying to make as much money from his cows as possible which means maximizing their yield (fatter cows or more cows). There are a positive and negative aspect to consider:
Positive: The herder gains profit for each pound
Negative: Each cow degrades the pasture slightly
The distribution of the positive and negative results is unequal. The individual herder gains all the profit from selling more or fatter cows, but the cost of (over) using the pasture is shared by the group. A rational herder will see the benefit from grazing more cows outweighs the (shared) cost of the degradation of the pasture. All of the herders will reach the same conclusion and put more cows on the field leading to overgrazing and a potential collapse of the pasture. The individual gain outweighs the individual share of the total cost eventually leading to a disaster.
Now consider the Blazers' Edge sidebar used by Blazer fans for expressing their opinions about their favorite team. Each poster is trying to have his/her opinion heard, appreciated, "rec'd" and commented on by as many fellow fans as possible. There are a positive and negative aspect to consider.
Positive: The poster gains recognition/appreciation for his/her opinions for every post made.
Negative: The sidebar gets more crowded with every post made.
The distribution of positive and negative results is unequal. The individual poster gains all the recognition/appreciation from his/her post, but the cost of (over) using the sidebar is shared by all of Blazers' Edge. A rational poster (perish the thought) will see the benefit from posting more outweighs the (shared) cost of a clogged sidebar. All of the posters will reach the same conclusion and post more leading to a highly congested sidebar where fanposts are not visible long enough to get many comments/recs thus negating the whole reason for posting. The individual gain outweighs the individual share of the total cost eventually leading to a disaster.

would cut down on the extraneous post fo sho. Positive: "I may get a rec. Yay! I feel good! " Negative: " I’m out 5 bucks, which goes a long way toward a 5th of Hood River Vodka."

The majority of cow flatulence
Is caused by being grain / corn fed as their digestive tracts are not designed for that particular foodstuff. If grass fed like Bison, then cows have virtually the same air-biscuit profile as Bison.

U of Maryland has a pretty big ag program, with the Dept of Ag's primary
resesrch center right next door in Beltsville.
While in HS, they brought a cow to our campus in DC. It had a big plastic check valve inserted into its side. By the time I came out to see it, there was a circle 3/4’s of the way around the cow. It was only 3/4’s because of the example provided by some of the students who were standing in line with the valve. As the cow regurgitated, it would shoot out the side, up to several feet. Much worse than cow farts. At least if you are in the line of fire.

I always thought that was a poor tactic
“stop X or I’ll give you something to X about”
The dad (usually) is telling his kids to shut up or stop being annoying by threatening them with something that would cause them to complain even more. Four results:
1. They shut up. Dad wins
2. They call his bluff. Dad has to listen to complaining and his kids have “won”.
3. They call his bluff, but Dad wasn’t bluffing. Dad gives them something to (really) complaining about and the kids shut up fearing more punishment. Dad is a jerk.
4. They call his bluff, but Dad wasn’t bluffing. Dad gives them something to (really) complain about. Now Dad has been mean (or even spanked them! oh noes!) AND he has to listen to more complaining.
Not many good outcomes.

why didn't you say it was your class schedule
I can relate to that!
The open days are so helpful when it comes time to get work done. I find it easier to devote large blocks of time to studying/writing/completing assignments than to have a similar amount of time spread across the day or even the whole week. It’s really easy to waste time when it’s just an hour here or an hour there. It’s hard to get into a groove, so to speak, when you’re constantly moving to new activities.
I like to use days with a relatively open schedule as work days for the whole week.
You won.

hmmm
if this is class schedule related then I’d go hybrid. If it’s work related, I’d go five normal days because a crappy day can be HIGHLY stressful depending on how crappy and could mean the loss of a job.
However, if you’re only talking busy and school, i go hybrid and use the free day as clean up. that was always my preference.

Tell the truth.
You’re feeding the poor cows corn instead of grass, they’re natural food. They wouldn’t eat corn unless you adulterated it with growth hormones and other nasty stuff. The cows get bloated before their time and are butchered, horribly, much earlier than they should be which is probably a blessing so they don’t have to stand knee deep in their own shit anymore. Then we ingest fast food hamburgers full of growth hormones and soybeans genetically engineered by Monsanto and become bloated ourselves. It’s a vicious cycle and and sometimes an apt Bedge analogy. :(

So, to paraphrase
Instead of eating beef, buy a good rifle and start hunting deer. They’re overpopulated, they taste yummy and they’re healthier to boot.
And, Anne, you should probably use a different word for ‘poopie’ :-)

The hell with deer.
People present the same over population issues, are supposedly yummy and if you shoot the ones out jogging or riding bikes, you’ll probably get a healthy one.
The advantage is you don’t have to go out and look for them. They’re all around.
Of course the disadvantage is some of them might have a tendency to shoot back. But consider that a facet of being more of a challenge.

Thus the equilibrium of the Bedge posting game is not simple over-posting. People that consistently over-post suffer a reputation cost: people start ignoring their posts. Eventually attention and recs diminish, even for their good posts. Thus, there is no single equilibrium to the BE, much like iterated prisoners dilemma or public goods games.
For analysis of repeated prisoners dilemma:

If the Bobcats do wanna win
That’s a great trade. Jackson CAN be a guy who helps you win. He can defend, hit big shots, be a playmaker… he can be real good.
His deal is long and he is old. So, we’ll see how it goes.
Larry Brown wanted Raja Bell bad last season and now he doesn’t. He is funny. I wonder if he and Jackson will butt heads or get along famously.

reason for decision: though contextually different, the phrase is Ms. Roybot’s intellectual property. Also hurting Mr. Arkitect’s cause is that the phrases were identical; this leaves high probability of foul play. One option is that Mr. Arkitect could have subconsciously digested Ms Roybot’s comment last week. Another is fare more vile.

The CTC acknowledges that “coined the phrase” should be replaced by “came up with the concept.” While Mr.Sass did come up with the line, I believe that Ms. Roybot was the first to reference Dave signing his post/comment with the particular phrase. In doing this, she beat Mr. Arkitect “to the punch.”

Watch the game, then call your ISP to complain about ESPN360. If you don’t get ESPN360, call your ISP and ask them NOT to subscribe to it.
If you are a college student who gets it for free, enjoy it but DO NOT get attached to it, and when you leave school, use an ISP that doesn’t subscribe to it.

Oregon’s D is all about hoping that their offense gets out to a big lead so the other team has to pass. I’d be terrified of playing a close game against a team with a solid running game if I were an Oregon fan.
Oregon State’s D has been really solid the past few weeks, plus they get a bye week to prepare for that Oregon offense.

I remember losing the game to a team we should have beaten…and I was constantly throwing out jabs at Riley. As time went on, my comments were getting more bold and offensive. In the middle of the 3rd quarter, this lady turns around and with a stern voice said “I’d appreciate it if you stopped talking poop about the coach infront of the coaches family.”

since she turned around to tell you I assume you told her that you weren’t talking poop about about the coach in front of his family but rather behind their backs!

I was in a similar situation at a Duck game
A friend got me tickets to a game and they were right in the middle of the away team. It was back when Carson Palmer was good and I kept calling him a cheater, even though he was just kicking the Duck’s butt. Once someone point out that Palmer’s mom was sitting in front of me, I watched the rest of the game in the Moshofsky Center.

Also consider that the difference between the "tough" Oregon defense and the "much weaker OSU D"
in terms of points allowed is less than 3 points per game and OSU has yet to play Washington State. I would think the difference will shrink after this weak’s games. Also consider that OSU is leading the conference in rushing defense.
The fact is that in terms of total defense the top 5 teams in the Pac-10 are all pretty similar.

look at the teams leading Rushing defense… they’re the two that havn’t played UO yet… UO puts up ridiculous rushing numbers… my guess is Cal probably has the best rush defense in the pac10

also consider that the Oregon D
has played with a big lead in just about every single game this year (with the exception of the Stanford and Boise State games).
It’s so much easier to play defense when you know the offense is going to throw the ball 85-100% of the time

lol wut
they have just about the same amount of wins in recent years.
The difference is the coaching styles in Riley and Kelly — Riley likes to let off the gas and get conservative, and Kelly is all about all out attack all game no matter what the score.

but they didn’t play with a big lead all game. in fact, in only three games the ducks had huge leads at halftime. the rest were within or around 10 points differential at the half. hardly enough for the other team to have to pass. So yes they knew the other team was going to pass but in most cases that only happened in the 3rd or 4th quater.

For example
USC was able to keep pace with the Oregon offense in the 1st half. The key was that the Oregon offense scored, forced a 3 and out, and scored again. They got a 14 point lead with about 5 minutes left in the 3rd quarter, and then USC totally committed to passing the football. Game Over.

by dougall5505 on Nov 16, 2009 3:05 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
it gives them a week to prepare for the OSU attack
but that bye week will be crucial for OSU to at least slow down the Oregon offense in just the first 1.5-2 quarters like Stanford did.
If OSU can get out to an early lead and force Oregon to throw the football,m I love Oregon State’s chances.
