Let me tell you the odds- FR3

...I got bored.

Destiny

LLLLLLx27 LLLLDDx27 LLDDDDx9 DDDDDDx1 =1/27

LLLLLx54 LLLLDx162 LLLDDx36 LLDDDx108 LDDDDx6 DDDDDx18 =6/27

LLLLx36 LLLDx216 LLDDx336 LDDDx72 DDDDx108 =12/27

LLLx8 LLDx72 LDDx216 DDDx216 =8/27

Light

0=1+18+108+216= 343/1728= Approx 1/5

L=216+72+6= 294/1728 = Approx 1/6

LL=72+336+108+9= 525/1728= Approx 3/10

LLL=8+216+36= 260/1728= Approx 3/20

LLLL=36+162+27= 225/1728= Approx 3/23

LLLLL=54 54/1728= 1/32

LLLLLL=27 27/1728= 1/64

Dark

0=8+36+54+27= 125/1728= Approx 1/14

D=72+216+162= 450/1728= 25/96

DD=216+336+36+27= 615/1728= Approx 5/14

DDD=216+72+108 396/1728= 11/48

DDDD=108+6+9= 123/1728= Approx 1/14

DDDDD=18 18/1728= 1/96

DDDDDD=1 1/1728 = 1/1728

I don't believe I've ever been this bored. :lol:

So four pips is the magic turning point, where you are more likely to get sufficient Light Side points than sufficient Dark Side points in a single 3 die roll. I suppose that makes sense - you'd need at least 1 of those 2 pip sides.

Someone's got to take the professor in back and plug him into the hyperdrive.

Its safe now, Homeworld Remastered is downloaded- I should be busy for awhile.

I don't understand.. can some one translate it to Bocce?

That's a raw datadump... to translate it, first you need to ask a question.

The question: what do the numbers mean?

The "destiny" section is ordered by how many total pips are rolled on the dice, and sorted by how likely each particular combination (L for light pips, D for Dark pips) is out of 1728. At the end of each row is the total odds of that many pips, if you're willing to burn any amount of destiny to pull it off. You almost never see this paticular sort of results, but I think it's worth paying atention to.

The "Light" and "Dark" are sorted assuming no destiny use- they are the more normal statistics you see.

0 is the odds of getting no pips of that color

L is the odds of rolling exactly 1 light side pip, without caring how many dark side pips were rolled

LL is the odds of rolling exactly 3 light pips, ect.

Same goes for DDD and Dark pips.

You were..."bored" and did this?

Hate to see what a rainy week does to you.
