Best MF % for PindleBot?

[Aris]

and just an FYI:

most ppl do a pindle run in about 1min. some closer to 40seconds. some longer. but i'll use the 1min mark cause its easy to calculate.

now this would mean that your computer never crashes, or needs restarted, and you never lose your connection, and bnet never bogs down, AND you have it running 24/7 (yeah right to all of them)

you would do about 43,000 runs in a month. so for ANY OF YOU to do an accurate measure of mf, based on a certain %. you would need to leave pindlebot running unstopped, 24/7 for about 70 months, or almost 6 YEARS!!!

NOW! untill any of you leave pindlebot running for over six years straight you CANNOT accuratly tell ANYONE that a certain % of mf is better than another certain %.

Aris thanks for typing that all out, but I really didn't literally mean how it works.

I was trying to imply that I don't agree with it. You've seen some people having it on 24/7 with 5 day streaks of getting nothing but crap using the script. Now say there was no script, do you think its fair that someone with 500% MF could do 1000 runs and get shit while someone that did 500 runs with 500% MF got 8 Godlys?

Seems like MF is in many senses useless.

These scripts are just good examples on how D2's MF system needs to be changed.

you are missing it COMPLETELY!

ITS PROBABILITY!!!!!!!!!!! god how many times do i have to say it.

the only thing that blizzard could do is make the chances more likely. and then you would have some guy get 16 godly's one week and you get nothing.

the PROBABILITY IS STILL THEIR!! it would just be a greater probability.

and if blizzard will do ANYTHING they will make the chances less. not more. they are supposed to be godly for a reason. if anyone/everyone could get one it wouldnt be godly anymore now would it?

 

[gormna]

so ya about those statistics..

 

[Aris]

thats just the way CHANCE works. it happens in games, in real life, EVERYWHERE.

most ppl go their whole life never getting hit by lightning.. but then theirs that one guy that gets hit like 5 times.

ITS PROBABILITY!! ITS CHANCE!! ITS LIFE!!! you cannot fix it. LIVE WITH IT!

I think you're getting alittle worked up over this. I said I disagree with it, not that I can't live with it.

And none of these required your response its was meerly my opinion.

 

[Krovvy]

JeD causeing problems it ppls lifes already =)

 

[Seks]

JED hasn't caused problems its basically made people aware of them.

your OPINION has no valid foundation. it is not an "opinion", its a public anouncment of your own stupidity.

probability/chance is a KNOWN scientific phenomenon. it can be tested over and over and over and always comes up the same.

your "opinion" on the other hand cannot. so dont spread rumors that you dont know anything about.

With a game where items shape every single character I think steps could be made to monitor drops and lower chances, simple.

Then after a period of time your MF Quality could be rejuvinated.

so you would lower ppl's chance to get somthing if they just got somthing?

that wouldnt change your chance to get anything. it would just mean their would be less TOTAL items in existence.

you would STILL have gotten 0. except instead of him getting 6-8 godly items he might have only gotten 3-4 godly items.

your still missing the entire concept of "probability/chance"

 

[Seks]

I totally understand it.

In DAoC, we randomed all good drops that we got from mobs that take 80+ people to kill. People sometimes would roll 100 2x in a row. Which would mean they SHOULD By probability get the two items that were randomed.

But due to a more spoken rule than written down, we never allowed that person to get both the items, and it was randomed again.


Edit: BTW= The random was a command the user could type /random 100, it would roll and whoever got the highest won. Randoms were seen in the command chat.

 

[Aris]

well thats fine and dandy when your working with a group of ppl that all agree to the rule and taht are all playing together.

unfortunatly you cannot have 30,000 ppl on bnet all play together, and also play fairly and not take every single drop.

you would have to change the fundamental game of D2 to have that work like that. which isnt going to happen. mabey for D3. but you cannot expect blizzard to rewrite the current game.

 

[Seks]

Again I never expected anything to change.

Nice forum debate.

 

[nagol]

Hrmm I have ran my computer for 3 weeks straight b4 Never went over 124 degrees F infact its been runing for some time now prolly over a week and a half and since the bot restarts diablo two it runs ALL the time

Oh yah im also getting another computer to start doing the runs although im gonna need another account.

 

[han_solo]

why does a phenomenon like probability/chance exist in real life?
years ago my math teacher at high school wasnt able to tell me

 

[nagol]

while your at it.... why not ask what created the universe and than what created the thing that created the universe and so on? LoL
