      In the book, the clothes he was in (and other clothes from the Inviliblizing Incident site) were ALSO invisible. So he could wear stuff.

    • @zacchon
      @zacchon Před 8 lety +9

      If you can turn invisible the clothes you are wearing, you should also be able to make just some parts of your body invisible. Like your hand or head. Or skin. That last one might actually be dangerous, as it makes your inner parts exposed to sun. I think you would get cancer pretty damn easily if doing so.

    • @zacchon
      @zacchon Před 8 lety +21

      Partial invisibility is also cool for medical purposes. Depending on how you could control it, you might be able to show for example just your heart or brains and different layers of them. You wouldn't need x-ray, you could show a full HD crosscut of your bones if needed. Wow, this is actually like the coolest one of the superpowers.

  • @elirox100
    @elirox100 Před 8 lety +585

    There is a fundamental flaw in this concept. The person with the option which gets the highest initial vote is a disadvantage while the person with the least popular category has an advantage due to regression towards the mean. Basically the higher an initial stat is the greater the chance that it decreases on a second measurement- intuitively, there are fewer people eligible to change their mind to your category if it is initially popular! Imaging if someone got 100% of the votes to start with- they'd be guaranteed to lose (or at best tie 3 ways with 0 mind changes).

    • @elirox100
      @elirox100 Před 8 lety +196

      Now I've watched it I note: The initial leader did not win a single round.
      The choice with the second most initial votes won 1 round.
      The least popular initial choice won 3 rounds.
      Sorry to break it you Tom, your game is broken.

    • @elirox100
      @elirox100 Před 8 lety +68

      Assuming each of these categories should win 4/3 of the rounds if my hypothesis is false the chi-squared statistic is ((4/3-0)^2+(4/3-1)^2+(4/3-3)^2)/(4/3)=3.5 with 2 degrees of freedom. This null hypothesis is rejected at the 20% significance level but not at the 15% level. There's still hope!

    • @CaesarsSalad
      @CaesarsSalad Před 8 lety +53

      I noticed that too. Maybe total percentage + changed percentage would be a decent balance. If you start at 90% and end up at 80%, your score would still be 70%. Plus, the three scores would still be guaranteed to add up to 100%, so that's kinda nice.

    • @TJForceIX

      I feel like this sort of nerdy analysis is the kind of thing Tom would appreciate. I'm happy to continue watching this show, it was very enjoyable but I just think it was interesting to note the problems. As he releases more episodes I'll probably keep the analysis going as the sample size increases to see if we can really see the regression towards the mean effect in action.

    My choices for the superpower question kinda invert if you have control:
    1: Controlled Telepathy
    2: Controlled Flight
    3: Controlled Invisibility
    4: Uncontrolled Invisibility
    5: Uncontrolled Flight
    6: Uncontrolled Telepathy.
    My reasoning is as follows:
    I don't really like having lots of attention on me, so being the guy who hovers down the street would be awful. I'd much rather be permanently invisible, thank you. And uncontrolled telepathy would probably drive you mad. There's a character in an anime called Code Geass who has exactly that issue and the guy is among the looniest characters I've seen in media.
    Conversely, controlled flight would be nice because I could get where I want to go quickly and cheaply, so it's better than the controlled invisibility because the only uses for that are pranking people, espionage, or crime, none of which I find particularly appealing. Controlled telepathy, on the other hand, would be immensely beneficial because I'd actually be able to know what to say to people (with practice, anyway).
    And control is innately better than lack of control.
