Not necessarily griping about the result, was surprised at it though. In one 5 minute overtime, I outscored my sim opponent 21-12. I realize there was a lot of intentional fouling at the end and what have you, but its just wild that my team scored 21 points in 5 minutes, when they scored 22 in 20 minutes in the second half.

Again, not necessarily something to go ape about, just something that caught my eye.

i just came up with the greatest idea. WIS needs to come out with a new world. For retards.

It would have as little statistical variance as possible.

Here's what i mean. If two teams play and one of them should win 60% of the time. Then that team wins 6 out of 10 games. The game engine would essentially "picks" the winner.

Then the score is figured out. There will be zero games won by more than 10 points. So WIS would use a RNG to figure out margin of victory.

Here's how it plays out. Duke plays Illinois. Duke should win 68% of the time. The engine picks Duke to win this time. Then we go to the RNG for margin of victory. Parameters are 1-10. and a 4 comes up. We go back to the RNG to select score. Parameters are 40-80. 65 comes up....

and there you have it. Duke beats Illinois 65-61.

the rest of the stats are filled in by using a range. If Duke averages 17 fouls per game, then the most fouls they can commit are 21 and the fewest are 13. And continue from there.

The real genius here is you could make MORE money depending how you market it.. .. . .

WIS: "hey guys, we have a totally new engine version coming out, 9.0!!! its so high tech and advance that we will only use it in one super advanced world. Along with the new game engine, we have a completely revamped RNG developed by a former NASA mathematician. Its call RNG4000, and calculates to 10billion decimal places (because everyone knows how confusing it can get going from 7.0000000000000 to 6.0000000000000). Price of the world will be $29.95 per season, but it will be well worth it as all results will be 100% perfect!!"

FWIW, completely uncalled for.

i'm very sorry. you're right.

your post was merely pointing out an odd result. You never said it was outrageous or that it shouldn't happen...

i dont know where that came from or why i posted it. i guess i'm just a *****.

or maybe i'm just in a bad mood, as there's been someone with a very similar user ID to yours prancing about the forum the past few weeks irritating the sh*t out of everybody.

I'm only as irritating as you make me out to be. I really think that once people get to know me or get used to me, they realize that I'm not really such a bad guy at all. I do realize what I have dug for myself as well, however.

wow. it just kinda dawned on me. did you REALLY just say this? really? completely uncalled for?

I know, quite ironic huh? Maybe other such conversations could have gone this way if perhaps people simply said this to me.

Not really. You don't really listen.

shut up. Stop trying to joke about how annoying you are, it doesn't change the fact that you are annoying.

I can't believe you still are around here being like this..

Being like what?

If the whole board thinks you are annoying, can't you take a hint?

So, point?

So then why are you posting it? Are you going to post everything that slightly isn't normal?
