Also, for what its worth, Pittsburghs police Chief came out publicly and stated that any officer who cant see what Chauvin did is wrong needs to turn in their badge.

And that sums up how I and most officers I know feel perfectly.
Lip service. Until real fucking justice is consistently delivered, I'll never believe y'all's words.

Then don't think of it as the doors being eliminated, think of it as the host picking all those doors as a single group, and the host wins if the prize is in any of those doors. You get 1 door, the host gets 999 doors. The host then offers to trade his 999 doors for your single door. Obviously his group has a better chance of winning, so you switch.

Same with 3 doors. You get 1 door, the host gets 2. He offers to trade your single door for his 2 doors, and if either of those two doors have the prize, you win.
But it's not a group once they've been eliminated! The choice at that point is 50/50. Maybe when all the doors were in play it was whatever the odds were originally but it's now 50/50 since only two choices are left.

Using your "right or wrong" logic, my chances of winning the lottery are 50/50, either I do or I don't.
I'm not. What I am doing is seeing that it ultimately comes to two choices at the end. That is not the case with the lottery.

Sad_Face posted...
That's the thing, it's not an even decision. You have a 1/1000 chance of picking. The host, knowing where all the goats are, consequently knows where the keys to the dream _____ is. So he is in control of the 999/1000 doors. When he opens the doors to the goats, the percentage chance of your door being right doesn't change. It's still 1/1000. His door, because it's lumped with the eliminated goat doors, is a 999/1000 chance of being right.
How is it not a decision? You switch or you don't. That is a decision. All others have been eliminated. Then you have to make a decision and since it comes down to only two at the end, I'm either right or wrong. Now, if it wasn't only two doors at the end I might see it but as it is I don't.

When I taught math for non-majors, this usually got the same thing across without running into some of the hang ups people have with Monty Hall for whatever reason:

Suppose you are on vacation and you travel to a city with three hotels. You go to the first hotel but it seems kind of junky, so you drive to the second hotel. This one is somehow worse than the first!

It's too late to go back to the first hotel (someone behind you was going to take the last room), so you have two choices: stay at the second hotel or try your luck with the third one.

Which option leads to a better hotel stay (on average)?

(Note: for the purpose of this puzzle we're assuming that there is a strict ordering of the quality of the hotels without ties)
Sticking with the second one. The third one could either be better or worse but you don't know. The first has been eliminated. I'm sticking with the junky one I know instead of risking it for something worse.

Here's the thing, you have a 1/1000 chance of picking it the first time around. When the host comes in, he kills 998 doors, all of them incorrect with a 100% guarantee. And he leaves one door alone. Remember, you had a 1/1000 chance of picking the right one, what would the percentage chance of that other door be? Remember, the total probability of all choices has to add up to unity; 100% or 1000/1000 if you will.
Maybe it's because percentages were never my strong suit, but I still fail to see why I should switch when it eventually comes down to one or the other. Honestly, if it was more than one door left alone I could see it but I just don't see why when the final choice is ultimately 50/50. I don't get why it matters what the probability was before, it is no longer that once all others have been eliminated.

The host knows where car is, @dave_is_slick.

Let's put it this way. There are a THOUSAND (1000) doors you can choose from. You open one, and then the host opens NINE HUNDRED NINETY EIGHT (998) doors, all revealing goats, leaving a single door closed.

Are you still gonna stick with your initial pick?
Yeah. All the other wrong choices have been eliminated. I am either wrong or right at this point.

At this point, your odds are going to be 50/50, whether you switch or not. But if the host picked a door because he knew it was a goat, then it makes sense to switch, because he's actually eliminate a bad choice instead of making a random pick.
And this is what I'm stuck on. Everybody who ever explains this just simply says it's better to switch because a wrong choice was eliminated. WHY? Expand on that part in simple terms.

One way of understanding it is, imagine if there were one million boxes and you pick one. Then 999,998 are removed and the only ones left are the one you selected and another one.

Which one is more likely to be the winning box?
I guess this is just a problem I'll never truly get because I still don't see, even after all these explanations, why holding onto your pick when it's only two options left, is the "wrong" thing to do.

What I meant was in a narrative driven game, the gameplay should add to the experience, not just be something to do in between story segments. Im saying the story and gameplay should better integrate together to form a cohesive experience. Not just have shallow gameplay to fill spaces between story.
But why? The only game I've played where the gameplay became a part of the story was Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons. And I'd wager the reason why that one sticks out so much is exactly because games don't need to do that.
