they need a feature where they show u the most popular ones
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 19 July 2023 19:00 (ten months ago) link
also they need urls for all the old ones so you can refresh to choose different guys and not have to use the drop down every time
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 19 July 2023 19:05 (ten months ago) link
trying to find guys is hard enough idk about finding the most obscure guys
clyde drexler and brandon roy basically the same score who is filling these out clyde is mr blazer
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 19 July 2023 19:06 (ten months ago) link
theres a lot of recency bias in these results, basically anything from the last few seasons will have a higher score
― slai gorgeous-alexander (m bison), Wednesday, 19 July 2023 19:12 (ten months ago) link
roy is a while ago tho
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 19 July 2023 19:13 (ten months ago) link
this is true, i think 80s/90s knowledge goes a long way here in general

does it let you pick more than 9 players? the b*seball version limits to 9 guesses

i am down to shoot from the hip, but am at 7/9 right now and don't wanna mess things up
i dont think there are limits, i just let er rip (hamilton)
― slai gorgeous-alexander (m bison), Wednesday, 19 July 2023 21:45 (ten months ago) link
yeah it doesn't penalize you if you guess wrong. but once you get it right you can't replace it, if you're trying to get a low rarity score or whatev

59.68, heat are such a tough team to get good scores on bc theyve only existed since 89 and all the players i can remember are from various title heydays and not random weirdos from nba jam or basketball cards i remember from childhood. i did well with warriors and mavs tho.
― slai gorgeous-alexander (m bison), Thursday, 20 July 2023 05:05 (ten months ago) link

I am not good at this sort of thing or particularly knowledgable about basketball but I've gotten really into doing this and the crossovergrid (same thing) every day - I was convinced that this was finally going to be the one where I could just bang in in nine right answers for the first time ever, I cannot believe I lost on Steve Nash did not shoot enough threes

trying this for the first time today…my brain is a little tired from working all week so I’m giving up here. i don’t understand what the numbers mean?
https://ibb.co/ckc2L5z
― k3vin k., Friday, 21 July 2023 23:27 (ten months ago) link
low numbers mean the player is more obscure I think
― brimstead, Friday, 21 July 2023 23:39 (ten months ago) link
in the specific context

completely forgot Kidd played his last season for nyk
― brimstead, Friday, 21 July 2023 23:45 (ten months ago) link
so for the boxes a lower number is good…and this is reflected in a higher rarity score at the top?

lost on the crossovergrid 'top 3 draft pick' category because I just mindlessly assumed Vince Carter must have been one (super athletic instant star bad team etc etc) but it turns out people at the time preferred... Raef Lafrentz? Much to learn here.
then lost on the hoopsgrid because I couldn't do Bos-Hou
― Gravel Puzzleworth, Saturday, 22 July 2023 13:56 (ten months ago) link
totally thought Vince was too 3 as well..https://ibb.co/DfQTbhH
