  1. You might have noticed my member name is The Spanish Inquisition. Because I'm not sure if I actually want to keep this name, and it is a little long to type out, TSI is an appropriate substitute. EDIT: As for the tree-spamming, I was trying to go for the ruins in the middle of a vast forest/jungle look, e.g. Mayan temples in central america, a few castles in eastern europe, etc.
  2. This isn't THAT much of an error, but on the FE6-8 Pages (all of them), the order of con and mov for base stats, enemy stats, and promotional gains are mixed up very inconsistently. I know that if someone's just looking for the data, it isn't a problem, but if you happen to be copy/pasting into excel like I was... (basically trying to add base stats with promotional gains in excel made knight!recruits really fast and really weak ) EDIT: Just remembered: Average Stats sections for FE7 don't account for different base stats for HM
  3. First, I know it's big, but AFIK, FE8 doesn't have a map size limit. This is my first attempt at mapping, but I think it turned out pretty well. Also, if you want to use it in a hack, be my guest, just make sure to credit me as TSI. Let me know what you think!
  4. Congratulations. You have successfully kicked a person in the balls, then beat them to death before they were able to raise an arm in defense. Happy? Moving on, let's assume we have two skilled players of equal level, but one can rng abuse. Who wins? I think you know the answer here. And Horace did say (first page of this thread) he rigged crits, which is RNG abuse. We all know he's a very skilled drafter that probably doesn't need to rng. Except he said that he did. I'm not in anyway saying OMG YOU NEED TO RNG TO DO WELL IN DRAFTS. I'm just interested in how well a person does in drafts with or without rnging. And no, remember your words might sound very clear to yourself in your head, but this does not mean they will translate well over the internet. Also I just checked through all the posts, and I see no proof shown that said event happened in your lifetime (aside from the hack you admitted to performing) First, I assume you don't mean the Hall of Fame, since as you implied, a skilled drafter doesn't need a favorable RNG to do well. Next, we are penalizing people for getting insanely lucky because there is a much higher chance of a person RNG abusing (since it is much faster, so burns through the probability events faster) over a given period of time. Why am I even bothering to answer this, obviously my idea is worthless.
  5. you are quite right until Uh, you just contradicted yourself. My statement is bullshit because it is true?
  6. To all: who immediately assume I'm stupid. I'm not. Just saying. I never said a 1% will never happen. Hell, any idiot knows on average 1% will happen every 100 times. By the same idea, a draft is bound to have one good chapter in it somewhere. I'm going to assume you missed the above post, or trolling me hard. Where did I say that occasional 5%s aren't plausible? I said 20 5%s in a row was unplausible.
  7. I've bled through multiple classes of calculus, diff eqs, linear algebra, number theory, abstract algebra, prob/stat, and analysis, so, Lumi and anyone else, NEVER say I don't know enough math to talk on a fucking web forum. Check my math yourself. You'll see it's right. If it's wrong, point it out to me, don't tell me fuck off.
  8. Stop here. I didn't say each number burned, I said each number that is actually used. Except for the fact that the person in question has incentive only to manipulate in their favor. PKL, I am making no claims on what happened in past drafts, just for potential future drafts that would be taking this rule into account. And good god, is there no person who is willing to maybe admit that I might have a good idea? No, obviously TSI's just a retarded fuckface with no life outside of a stupid internet forum. Lastly, suppose each run of fire emblem took one hour (a very conservatively small estimate of time needed). Then multiply that by 1/(9.23x10^23). Then we have a run that could happen maybe once every 12*10^21 years (yes, you can check my math). Surely you understand that it won't happen (where, to be perfectly honest, won't happen means it is less likely to happen than, say, the universe imploding in the next second).
  9. Think about it this way. If the player did re-do the game, how likely are they going to be that bullshit lucky again? (It's the same probability squared) If the player's unwilling to do it, then let them know, "Hey, if you're unwilling to re-do it, we'll assume you lied to us. If you are willing to re-do it, or let someone else re-do it, we'll trust you." Surely that's not so ridiculous as you claim it is.
  10. @ all that say "I have to reset because I was randomly blessed?" Look at the odds. Are they reasonable? Jihyun, you yourself said your Rath was slightly Str-screwed. You failed to mention any of your other units, let alone the possible usage of Afa's Drops. PKL, are you getting awesome levels every single chapter in the same draft? If not, you shouldn't be worried. Darros, let's make the reasonable assumption that a very good chapter occurs maybe 5% of the time (By my experience it happens far less than this, but I'll run with it for now). Then getting a very good chapter 20 times in a row has a likelihood of 9.23x10^23. Really? No the odds are not impossible, but it is so implausible that any engineer can tell you it will never happen in your life time.
