turbine random generator is very good in the millions of random values, but horrible in the hundreds

who hasn't had lightning II weapons do 4-5 lightning attacks in 3 seconds and then none in 30 mins?

You know I've never liked the cut of your jib, nor the fact that you dated Ms. Mia Wallace.

Especially the d%. Everyone with UMD knows that 80% is more like 50%.

WTF Turbine.

Maybe, but maybe not. I really have no fucking idea how pseudo random generators works, but they have a seed, and I guess the seed used by turbine is rather small and it seems to work weird (yes, I know the gambler fallacy, but it really works weird). Meaning, if you run X quest you may have bunches of very good luck, and then suddenly very bad luck. And don´t tell me about the coin flipping 7 times head. UMD is reaaly fucked up.

Seriously UMD is ridiculous. 130% chance? Fail. Fail. Fail. Success.

WUT?

Supposedly you fail on a 1 no matter what. But, it's got to be more than that.
  

A half-dozen boss Vaulties donated generously with real money to my classroom during a fundraiser in May 2015 to get poor kids books to read. I won't forget that. They know who they are, and they freaking rule.

Once you meat your personal goal you might want to give that some consideration.

Good grief Meat, you're hopeless. You would label the simple act of taking a shit as someone obeying the divine law of nature to leave a proof of existence.

then my favorite part is having to run around and jump in zig zags so the 36 archers in every wheloon or storm horns quest wont ruin your concentration roll when ress scrolling. Just so i can fail on a 1.  Grin

I don't think naming names would be a good thing for me to do, but I'd pretty much add anyone who's a know-it-all dick on the list.� Even if they are sometimes intelligent with their opinions, the way they state them in long, "i'm a lawyer at trial"-type posts makes me want to punch them in the face.� They act like whiney babies with god complexes and then freak out if someone so much as breathes criticism in their direction.
