Mixed, controll, and pure.

Put into environments that are either static, or dynamic

@LEER can we get back that latter.

Put into different starting points.

Sure I will bring it up when there is silence

Grouped by terrain type?

Ok sounds good @LEER.

So you said earlier @GingaBomber that you wanted to put them nearer to the colder parts.

Uh not really

ok so were do we want them?

More put each group in different areas

Ok that makes more sense.

I mean in different tests, all test groups are seperate from one another

So say we have a world that is a constant line

Hotter on one end colder on the other

Infinite.

And have groups start in constant points along that line

Starting from the coldest suvivable and warmest survivable

Or make them start in the middle and have their ability to travel into either end as part of the scoring

Ok I like the sound of that.

Also dont forget there is the dynamic one as well

One where seasons are a factor

Of course.

But that I dont know enough to comment.

We already know how seasons contributed to societal structure

Lastly, I was thinking of a goal.

Like when they start, they are only aware of two things

A goal, and a common language

ANd some will have no goal

And others no language

I'm just a layman race realist not Philippe Rushton.

Ah damn,

And Im just a scifi fan

But is a goal and language is important?

Culture is something that should happen as the experiment progresses

Ture cultures would occur.

Goals would also be, resource accumulation, pop growth or even migration distance.

Well they would devolp into something.

So heres the thing, from there people can prove is genetics plays a factor beyond a few things we already know.

So whats already proven or commonly understood as of now?

We have intelligence which is split into ability to grasp new ideas, ability to develop new ideas, and ability to process ideas.
