Inherent Fallacies

Dayna and I were on the way to Don’s house to meet his brothers and I had an epiphany I labeled “inherent fallacy”. I used that to describe situations where someone believed with all their might that something was true but it was based on some really bad logic. For example, there are guys who cheat on their girlfriends/wives chronically and believe without a doubt that they (meaning their partner) will never cheat on them or leave them. I mean its like a big circle jerk. Its this property that they use to glorify the situation by rationalizing that she’s my number one because she’ll always be by my side.

SF4 Game Mechanics: Fireball Avoidance Patterns

In Street Fighter an important caveat is the difference between fireballs and body projectiles. Fireballs are an extension of the character without a hurt box and can cause damage full screen, while body projectiles follow the character and can be countered since the hurt box follows as well. Just as much as its important to have a seemingly random fireball pattern that zones you opponent both in mindset (impatience/annoyance) and where they are in the environment, its important to have a pattern of fireball avoidance, that moves you forward and puts you at an advantage.
