→In Search of the Truth: Who's Better?
Of the 508 games of cribbage played between Fall 2001 and [[Commencement]] 2005, Zach was victorious in 264 games, Jonathan in 244. However, only 31 of Zach's victories were skunks, to Jonathan's 36. This accounts for the smaller margin of difference in the final score: Zach 295, Jonathan 280.
After much deliberation, post-commencement online games have been decided to not be a valid marker of any sort of truth to "Who's Better?" and will not be statistically included in this analysis. Since commencementgraduation, Jonathan has used the biased Yahoo! Games forum to begin at least 65% of the games with the advantage of the opening crib. He To his credit, he has put this unfair edge to decent use in building a 1213-game post-graduation lead over Zach by the summer July of 2006. Additionally, an integral part of cribbage - trash-talking during play - is a much muted factor over online instant messager than it is during face-to-face matchups. Scholars agree that Zach's written barbs online appear to be worth at least 5 points per game less than they have proven to be in personal encounters.
