Default Re: Actually, you *are* tilting

I suspect you and I have a very different Philosophy of Language.

My point is that, even if everyone until now has used "tilt" to only describe instances in which someone becomes a looser player, that does not mean that, if they thought about it, they would not or should not include all instances of someone's play becoming less optimal in response to past bad luck. My argument is that the correct conception of tilt includes all those instances--this is because the essential element of the concept TILT is "a poor response to past bad luck, manifesting in suboptimal play."
