So are you saying that the odds of the dice here have been programmed and are not random?rabbiton wrote:through the magic of...gStrong wrote:Isn't the odds determined by the odds of the dice. How would one be able to ajdust the odds by a specific percentage?
DICE MANIPULATION
sure, it's way harder than just going with simple random, and sure it runs counter to any plausible business rationale, but the payoff is UNMITIGATED GLEE.
it's true that the odds of the dice are determined by the dice, just like years of intense study have concluded that the odds of the weather are determined by the weather, and the odds the stupid are determined by the stupid, but with
DICE MANIPULATION
we can control the very dice themselves, and hence their odds.
another name for it is "computer programming".

Where can I see the program?

This thread is not a suggestion, do not take me wrong. I just want to hear some opinions on the subject.owenshooter wrote:this is just stupid. i have a better suggestion. how about, if when you attack, as long as your number is greater, you always win... just a stupid suggestion... sorry, no offense, i just don't think it is all that wise...-the black nostrodamus


I think people would complain even more when they don't start the game, as the odds of the game being "over" before they get to play round 1 would increase (especially on 1v1s).Dako wrote:How would you feel if CC were to increase % of the winning outcome for the attacker by ... 5% or 10%? For both you and your opponents?
Just thinking out loud. I, myself, would prefer to win more rolls when I see them rather than rely on my opponents rolls.
