For ordinary smohs like me what % does swim mechanics make up in my performance?

So majority of you assumed that the % would drop BUT if you think about it.

You go swimming and theres some huge lad swimming beside you and hes gliding through the water. He's not fit, hes using all his technique to propel him. You can be as fit as you like but if you don't have the technique you're f**ked.

What made you decide to learn how to swim?

The actual answer to this is that I wanted to do a triathlon

I thought it might go up but really didn't know so tried the tactic of staying still, assuming people would move both ways and leave me safe...

I might be out here

I was thinking you needed the mechanics to be elite. You needed the correct technique and regular smohs wouldn't have that so they'd be relying on whatever fitness they had to propel them.

I've now officially given up trying to understand how this game works

Oh phew!

So are there 2 people going out tomorrow?


Day 14 and I still don't know the rules

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Boot them both! Boot them both! Boot them both!

I like the two of them, but draws are boring... :pac:

osh

I went lazy and just flipped the percentages. Mental note not to do that again 😅

osh

I’d also agree with boot us both. But your rules

Yeah, osh and cee_jay have a little playoff first. Worst gets kicked out, best goes into the main pot for the proper elimination

Draws are exciting because we get a mini-playoff tomorrow

It can happen at any time tomorrow, whenever they both get their answer in

That doesn't make sense

But what about the lad that is fit, just shite at swimming? Surely it's their fitness that's getting them through it?

osh

Oh right so whichever of us finishes worst next round is out? Fair enough so

I can't swim, so I had bugger all to go on and no frame of reference to even attempt a thought process. This was essentially another dairy farming question for me.

But the basic point of swimming is not to drown. You can be as fit as you like but if you don’t have some sort of technique you’re in trouble. Now if you want to start racing you get fitter.

I can swim... pretty well... but I learned as a child before I understood the meaning of the word technique... and I hadn't the foggiest...

Think its one of those cases of once you know how to do something you think there's f*ck all to it. Me earlier today: Technique? What technique? Kick your legs and swoop your arms...
