Oliver: "in the upper parts of the crowd there seems to be a lot more action going on, but I can barely see it because the hud is covering it." Measured, 31 of 134 raisers were being drawn under the board or the blood panel — a quarter of every cheer spent where nobody can see it. The cause is structural: a raise is only detectable where there is empty stand above somebody's head, and the sheet only offers that above the top row of each seating block. One of those rows is at the very top of the picture, which is where the scoreboard lives. So both ends are fixed. The two arms-up rolls now ask for the standers to be in the lower two thirds only, and the pass drops any raiser whose box centre falls under the board or the blood panel. 92 of 101 raisers now sit below the board's bottom edge, against 103 of 134 before — and because "how many join in" is a fraction of the table, pruning the invisible ones makes every cheer denser where it counts. Measured churn during a won game: 2-5.5% of the mid and lower stand changing every 90 ms, against 0.1-1% under the HUD. The re-roll also came back with 41 spectators owning both raised poses, up from 28, so more of them clap rather than just going up and down. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
