Thiiis is MFO!! (signups and progress)

Twibz, I wonder what you mean by you 'have four qualifiers' Perhaps you mean four good qualifiers? Because I have 25 qualifiers and I didn't even run that much, and I didn't pick up stuff like IK maul or LoH. You are aware that stuff like IK maul or LoH are actually qualifiers?

I mean any item on the list is a qualifier, any elite set/unique is a qualifier, and i only have four, poor luck for me in my first ever MFO, I would be chuffed if i got a IK maul or a LoH to make up a top 5 for me lol, it doesnt help that i cant run half as much as I would want due to work and other RL stuff, but i digress...

2 of them are in the top half of the scoring table and one is in the top 20? maybe 15? so I'm pretty confident I'll be last, but the fun is just being part of this event I suppose, love seeing the updates, and I really need to send my status to zgpmf, I'm really lacking here and I apologise.

I'm almost finishing my RL work. Yesterday I managed to do only 200 runs... That means I'll have to make up for it.

@Twibz: Try to see things this way: you need 5 five qualifiers from the top XX of the table. You can get those in 1-5 runs (or 5 thousand). Personally, I think it's better to find one good qualifier per day or something instead of finding 5 decent items on a single day and nothing else... Iirc, I got two of my qualifires in 10 runs and nothing better on the past 8 hours of pindle... That kind of "ice age of drops" makes the next hour a little harder. Keep in mind that 5 items can put you on the top of the list or in a tie with 1st place. What the chance of that happen? Not zero. As in: what's the chance of finding 5 T-Mights on AT or 5 D-webs on pindle in 5 runs? Not zero. (But not that far from zero, but you got it...)

What?? I'm actually in the lead? That's..unexpected. Did expect to climb a bit, but not this much. Still no updates from 4 people it seems so maybe they got good scores. For now it's a matter of hoping i didn't get the lead to early in the game.

Oh no Kitteh! We may be in trouble if he drops out as he's our only Pindle runner.

well if the numbers in the Gomule dropcalc are somewhat reliable that than the possibility of finding 5 D-webs in five consecutive Pindle runs is 1 in 100.000.000.000.000.000.000 that 10^20 thats one hundred Quintillion (i had to google that)
so that a little improbable

go go pindle drop me 5 dwebs

[Kitteh]

I have to drop out mate, bit of a mishap with some old stashes. Or more accurately, a monumental **** up. Sorry!

Only a little improbable??

@Kitteh: Just finished reading up on the EMB talk so i'm now aware of what happened. It really is a shame, but you didn't seem to have done it on purpose so i won't hold it against you. Now i just got to push those other slackers in our team a bit harder to win their respective categories. If we win all but Pindle we still should have a good chance of a team victory.

[mr teach]

yes only a little - well you only need to do that many runs and you have it guaranteed do get at least one D-web drop - well not guaranteed but if you aint got one than Pinlde really hates you

[Cyrax]

Was actually referring to your calculation of 5 dwebs in 5 runs. I'd say chances of that are more then just a little improbable.

[Kitteh]

It is a shame, because I was really enjoying the MFO and I like helping people out with gear. End of the day though, (assuming I'm right on how it happened) it was purely down to my carelessness, thus it's my fault, so the consequences are fully deserved.
