Logical Fallacies
Retired [X] Goblin

This team is a tribute to the various fallacies being commited on a daily basis by most people frequenting web-forums. Pick your favourite fallacy, kill it and a new and even more tempting fallacy will appear.

Fallacies most often appear when your opinion on a subject is prejudiced, not relying on anything solid. Then in an attempt to make everyone else see things your way, you rationalize your arguments into pseudo-logic, hence commiting a fallacy.

Example 1:

JackDaniels is in favor of the current CR-system. Fact in this example.

JackDaniels is in favor of the current CR-system because he has the highest CR. Fallacy : Circumstantial Ad Hominem. JD is only in favor of it because he benefits from it.

Example 2:

Mithrilpoint cherrypicks to get his CR to 170-ish. Fact in this example.

All coaches with a CR at 170-ish cherrypicks. Fallacy: Hasty Generalization. Because it works for MP and he does it, everyone does it.

And so on and so on and so on.

Fallacies - destroying communication since the beginning of time.
