Maybe there's a good reason	daurwyn(VIP)	February 22, 2015 04:41AM
Honestly the passion and emotion you're putting into this is comically absurd	Elystan	February 20, 2015 12:11PM
Hell yeah, screw passion and emotion, that never got humanity anywhere. (n/t)	NbM(VIP)	February 20, 2015 12:15PM
If you're having trouble with humanity just farm baby skeletons (n/t)	demos	February 21, 2015 03:15AM
Well, when its horrendously misguided and flying in the face of reason... (n/t)	wrathpuppet	February 20, 2015 12:19PM
Nice assumption that the path of reason is the "correct" one. Grow up Mahatma. (n/t)	Matrik	February 20, 2015 12:23PM

Do you have logs to grep? I'm in the mood for numbers	Elystan	February 20, 2015 12:59PM
I suppose I should give a simple example then	starbright	February 20, 2015 11:45AM
Some numbers relevant to this topic	Elystan	February 20, 2015 12:03PM
Since you did math	starbright	February 20, 2015 12:13PM
Like I say I think it would involve combinatorics	Elystan	February 20, 2015 12:22PM
I thought about it	Elystan	February 20, 2015 12:50PM
Is this right?	PaulO	February 21, 2015 08:05PM
I fail to see the point of applying combinatorics here	Drokk	February 23, 2015 04:43AM
I didn't use combinatorics because I have absolutely know no clue wtf combinatorics is (n/t)	PaulO	February 23, 2015 05:59AM
Lemme candy coat it then.	physics	February 20, 2015 11:53AM
OK. But you have to admit it's not a 1/10^7 chance of witnessing 7 consecutive 10% probability events over thousands of attempts (n/t)	starbright	February 20, 2015 11:55AM
Addendum - Bayes' Theorem	starbright	February 20, 2015 12:11PM

No one cares that you're attempting to be an asshole, they only pointed out that you're an idiot. (n/t)	Matrik	February 20, 2015 11:59AM
Ah, the good ole in-game-reward circlejerk.	physics	February 20, 2015 12:01PM
I'm not defending any math. I'm trying to cure your social ignorance regarding the community's efforts to cure your mathematical ignorance. (n/t)	Matrik	February 20, 2015 12:10PM
Loving your comic relief in this thread - the mix of mockery, troll, and insult is golden. (n/t)	Unnamed_	February 20, 2015 12:13PM

Search your logs for how many times you said Shite (n/t)	Demtok	February 20, 2015 10:41AM
I could - but the result would be 0. In other news, if anyone wants to see any of the PK's in that list - ask for log and I shall post. (n/t)	Nurok	February 20, 2015 10:46AM
Arratok, Erighan, Craaya, please. (n/t)	wrathpuppet	February 20, 2015 11:03AM

Tough one - Berry pies from galadon, or the meat ones from the other vendor? ;) (n/t)	Nurok	February 20, 2015 10:55AM

No, his numbers don't work.	physics	February 20, 2015 10:43AM
actually because each event is a discrete probability	Quas	February 20, 2015 11:50AM
You suck at math	Artificial	February 20, 2015 11:04AM
Why does this log invalidate his claim?	Quas	February 20, 2015 10:18AM
1 in ten fucking million. -nt-	physics	February 20, 2015 10:22AM
and all I am seeing is one log at that level	Quas	February 20, 2015 10:29AM
The odds of winning the lottery is WAY worse than 1 in 10 million.	Matrik	February 20, 2015 11:38AM
Re: and all I am seeing is one log at that level	PaulO	February 20, 2015 10:36AM
Even 20% is too much for an edge. NT	Sam	February 20, 2015 10:32AM
A single counter example is proof in this case.	physics	February 20, 2015 10:31AM

You don't understand probability	Elystan	February 20, 2015 10:37AM
No. It's still 1:10M, you're just more likely to see it.	wrathpuppet	February 20, 2015 10:47AM
Let me try again	Elystan	February 20, 2015 11:09AM
The odds are always the same.	wrathpuppet	February 20, 2015 11:18AM
They're different events	Elystan	February 20, 2015 11:26AM
The intelligent question to ask	physics	February 20, 2015 11:28AM
That certainly isn't an intelligent question. (n/t)	Elystan	February 20, 2015 11:29AM
And why not?	physics	February 20, 2015 11:35AM
No I'm honestly motivated by explaining your flawed understanding of probability because I think it's enlightening to realise the mistake you're making here and a lot of people make it (n/t)	Elystan	February 20, 2015 11:37AM
You're just avoiding the argument	physics	February 20, 2015 11:41AM
No I'm just having a different argument. Again, I don't care about Daevryn. (n/t)	Elystan	February 20, 2015 11:43AM
Doesn't sound like he cares whether or not Daevryn is wrong.	Matrik	February 20, 2015 11:43AM
Lemme candy coat it.	physics	February 20, 2015 11:55AM
Candy coat what? Your ignorance of math or your hatred of CF staff? (n/t)	Matrik	February 20, 2015 11:56AM
SHEEP!	physics	February 20, 2015 12:02PM
just trolling now? nt	The Forsaken	February 20, 2015 12:36PM
Your hyper focus on whether or not people "like" Daevryn is quite disturbing. I'm starting to think you might be a stalker. (n/t)	Matrik	February 20, 2015 12:12PM
If 100 players worked at replicating this 10 hours a day...	physics	February 20, 2015 10:51AM
You're arguing that winning the lottery is impossible.	wrathpuppet	February 20, 2015 11:00AM
I am arguing that the most likely outcome is usually true, especially when the other outcome is 1 in 10 million.	physics	February 20, 2015 11:31AM
Do you at least understand that it's not unlikely that a one in ten million event has happened in the course of CF? (n/t)	Elystan	February 20, 2015 11:32AM
Of course I acknowledge it has happened. Do you acknowledge that Daevryn has lied about mechanics before? nt	physics	February 20, 2015 11:38AM
I wouldn't know and I don't care. But you missed the point again	Elystan	February 20, 2015 11:40AM
He's a guy, not a god. You can appreciate/like him and still doubt him -nt-	physics	February 20, 2015 11:43AM
Someone can disagree with you without loving the people that you hate. (n/t)	Matrik	February 20, 2015 11:46AM
I don't hate Daevryn. I appreciate him. I just don't believe him about this edge. CIRCLEJERK! -nt-	physics	February 20, 2015 11:48AM
Sounds like you have an unreasonable grudge. Like the type of person that would try to get someone fired over a video game. (n/t)	Matrik	February 20, 2015 11:49AM

I understand probability	Elystan	February 20, 2015 11:11AM
Okay captain mathematics - simple question	physics	February 20, 2015 11:27AM
that is easy, it is less likely daevryn is wrong than you are	Quas	February 20, 2015 11:59AM
I don't care whether daevryn was wrong, I'm just offended by your abuse of mathematics	Elystan	February 20, 2015 11:28AM
ANSWER THE FUCKING QUESTION	physics	February 20, 2015 11:29AM
YEAH ELYSTAN	MiyagiYojimbo	February 20, 2015 12:07PM
Actually don't answer.	physics	February 20, 2015 11:56AM
This actually seems pathological.	wrathpuppet	February 20, 2015 12:08PM
I think the only thing lost in this thread is your credibility regarding math, and therefore physics, and therefore yourself. (n/t)	Matrik	February 20, 2015 11:58AM
