      this is also why aggression and leadership have a synergy to them. the ability to increase the tempo of the exchange while maintaining control means that you are thrusting consciousness into the future and being *correct*https://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1406269005145333762 …

      aggression as a playstyle/strategy in sports and games basically means to play in a way that gives the opponent less time to react this is unintuitively the core secret to tempo/flow/ooda

      e.g. with a rhythm game like taiko drum master or guitar hero at the faster speed you are looking at the notes further ahead than the hit zone. the conscious mind can think ahead because the reactive body is so proficient and synced with the mind

      single player games don’t have an aggressive aspect though bc syncing up mind and body is just a matter of technical proficiency. the note doesn’t change between when it is “noted” and when it needs to physically acted on

      in a multiplayer game however the opponent can get into your behavior loop and suddenly change direction or pace. the prediction that was a strength now becomes anti-momentum to override before u can react

      being aggressive in a multiplayer domain basically means being able to predict the future accurately while also being to react to and mitigate actions from “malicious” actors trying to prevent that future from manifesting

      this is why the leader doesn’t sit in a ship’s crow’s nest or act as a scout or a coach. it’s not merely about seeing the future but having the greatest “reach” in being able to pull futures into reality

          anyone outside of #1 isn’t pulling new futures into reality and thus advancing the game into reality but trying to “catch up” to #1. so from the perspective of the spectators, anyone outside of #1 is playing a single player gamehttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1412855020903571461 …

           🐈 added,

          the reason being #1 has such outsized attention relative to #2 or #3 is because we wonder at what one who is at the top of the mountain is looking at we already KNOW #2 and #3 are looking at #1 but what does #1 see?

          so even though japanese rhythm game masters can gain quite a bit of fame within niche groups, they can’t load bear the hopes of dreams of a super large international audience unlike say roger federer or michael jordan

          coding similarly feels “single player”. linus torvalds and wozniak are not as famous as multiplayer domain players like the google founders or steve jobs

          ping pong also feels highly technical. there doesn’t feel like there’s room for “leadership”. it’s just speed and power grinding in a china style ping pong farm
