Xu Tong was sowhat surprised, "A God’s Imitator’s imitator?"
Obviously, most people hadn’t thought that such a concept could exist before.
Cao Haichuan paused slightly, then explained:
"I believe we cannot simply assu two gas are the work of the sa God’s Imitator just because they’re similar.
"In fact, quite the opposite. I’m inclined to think that the more similar the gas are, the less likely they’re by the sa God’s Imitator.
"Why would there be ’God’s Imitators’ imitators’?
"Because the rules of all gas so far have been public. Since all players can see them, then God’s Imitators hidden among the players can naturally see them too.
"’King’s Judgnt’ received an S-level rating, so it will not only beco an object of study for players, but will inevitably also beco a key learning point for God’s Imitators.
"If a God’s Imitator is relatively clever, they can transform and apply the core concept, achieving a state of spiritual similarity without physical similarity. But if a God’s Imitator isn’t that clever, then the traces of imitation will be heavier, and there may be a lot of déjà vu.
"So we cannot assert that two works are by the sa God’s Imitator simply because they’re ’similar’.
"Just like many serial murder cases in reality, there are many cases of copycat cris. If we determine they’re by the sa criminal just because they’re ’similar’, we’ll often fall into serious misunderstandings."
Everyone had different expressions. So nodded, so remained silent.
But regardless, coming from Cao Haichuan, these words were quite convincing.
Wang Yongxin frowned slightly, "Here’s the problem. If there are ’God’s Imitators’ imitators’, which now seems like a high-probability event, doesn’t this also an we can almost never distinguish which two gas are specifically the work of the sa God’s Imitator?"
Li Renshu also asked, "Then Officer Cao, based on what considerations do you believe ’Childbirth Judgnt’ is the work of a ’God’s Imitator’s imitator’?"
Cao Haichuan explained, "Motive. Ultimately, we still have to fall back on the God’s Imitator’s motive. That’s the most reliable thod.
"If two gas are only similar in rules, then there are simply two possibilities:
"The first possibility is that this is the work of the original God’s Imitator, who was just lazy, borrowed the original design thinking, changed so details, and created a new ga.
"This possibility does exist, but we must consider that a God’s Imitator capable of creating an S-level ga must be very clever and very good at hiding themselves.
"What great benefit would they get from making another similar ga? The disadvantages are quite obvious: an overly distinctive design style would very likely make them easier to expose and be targeted by players.
"For a God’s Imitator, this is unsafe. Designing gas with completely different styles each ti would be better camouflage.
"The second possibility is that other God’s Imitators imitated their style and made similar designs. And the original God’s Imitator is powerless to stop this.
"For the later imitator, this behavior has all benefits and no harm: it can mislead players, pushing the hatred onto the first God’s Imitator, while also improving the competitiveness of their own ga.
"So from a motive standpoint, does the God’s Imitator who designed ’King’s Judgnt’ have more motive to create such a similar ga? Or do other God’s Imitators have more motive?"
Everyone nodded in sudden understanding.
This was indeed a point they hadn’t thought of before.
Cao Haichuan’s deduction contained an important preset premise: God’s Imitators all try their best to hide themselves.
From what they could see so far, this preset premise held true in most cases.
So those relatively excellent God’s Imitators, whether designing A-level or S-level gas, were definitely clever people who would carefully hide themselves.
When not urgently short on visa ti, rashly using previous ga fraworks to design would increase the risk of exposure. This wouldn’t be wise behavior.
Even if they wanted to make new gas to achieve certain specific purposes, they would definitely try to distance themselves from previous gas as much as possible.
They might even deliberately design so low-rated gas as decoys.
Although from what they could see now, it was difficult for players to trace who specifically was a God’s Imitator based solely on ga rules, or even guess which gas were made by the sa God’s Imitator.
But who could say for sure about the future?
There were many players like Cao Haichuan who were good at finding clues from subtle traces. Minute habits inadvertently revealed by God’s Imitators could all potentially beco fatal flaws that expose their identity soday.
The cleverer the God’s Imitator, the less likely they would be to consecutively design similar gas.
Although it couldn’t be proven at all, because it was built on so relatively solid reasoning, it could still convince many people.
Wang Yongxin thought for a mont, "We ntioned before that when God’s Imitators design gas, they’re very likely to tend to utilize their existing knowledge systems.
"Just like ’Blind Date Ga’.
"So could the God’s Imitator of ’Childbirth Judgnt’ also be relatively experienced in this area?
"Maybe a more traditional, older male or female image? Otherwise it would be hard to co up with those three questions that hit young people’s knowledge blind spots, right?"
Cao Haichuan shook his head, "Hard to say. These three questions in Childbirth Judgnt are indeed very difficult for players who haven’t learned the corresponding knowledge.
"But they’re not difficult for God’s Imitators, since they’re the ones asking the questions.
"Don’t forget, there’s a library area in the community with all kinds of books covering everything.
"As the answering party, of course there’s no way to find the corresponding answers from the vast sea of books. But it’s different if you’re the questioning party.
"A God’s Imitator just needs to find a ti when no one’s around, go to the library area and casually flip through so reproduction-related books, and randomly pick a few questions.
"They don’t necessarily need to draw from their existing knowledge system.
"Of course, from the ga content, this God’s Imitator should be relatively sensitive to gender issues and reproduction issues, but we didn’t see any particularly obvious tendencies. And even if there were, such tendencies would be relatively easy to hide."
Yang Yuting said, "Jiang He previously thought Li Jiang was the God’s Imitator for this ga. What do you all think?"
Lin Sizhi shook his head, "Doesn’t seem like it.
"Zhong Yuanyuan participated in ’Blind Date Ga’ because she confird she was absolutely safe in the ga, and needed to work with others from Community 1 to stir up hatred and kill more players to earn visa ti.
"That is, simultaneously satisfying both ’safety’ and ’profitable’ conditions.
"But Li Jiang in ’Childbirth Judgnt’ didn’t et either condition.
"He was neither absolutely safe nor able to gain much benefit from it.
"If Li Jiang were the God’s Imitator, the only explanation would be finding so excitent for himself.
"Jiang He felt Li Jiang’s words were confrontational and misled her into making so wrong decisions, but that was actually a bit of a misunderstanding."
Yang Yuting asked again, "What about Chen Yui?"
Lin Sizhi still shook his head, "I don’t think that’s very likely either."
Fu Chen nodded in agreent, "Right, how could a God’s Imitator judge themselves? That would be too absurd."
Cao Haichuan provided a tily reminder, "The Gallery never said God’s Imitators can’t judge themselves. Although I also think this possibility is small, we can’t simply and crudely rule it out."
Lin Sizhi explained, "Although Chen Yui seems to have escaped judgnt, I don’t think this is quite like ’the God’s Imitator’s way’."
