Re: Random Magic Paths - is it truly random?
All right, I just went back in this thread and added up the four cases where people posted details with a decently high total to give us some meaningful statistics. On the conjecture of a bias of elemental over sorcery, here are the totals of elemental vs. sorcery picks.
Yvelina Game 1 : 31-17
Yvelina Game 2 : 30-28
Alexti Trial 1 : 51-45
Alexti Trial 2 : 48-48
Elemental seems favored in this to the first level.
This matches many of my own earlier trials on this subject. In fact, I can't seem to rcall of a decent-sized trial where the total sorcery randoms exceeded the total elemental randoms. The Alexti Trial 2 above is the first one I have seen where they were even equal.
Random or bias? I have no idea at this point, for one can argue either way based on the sparse data.
Later today, I will add up my Atlantis King totals and post that. I know I have not lost one as yet, so it will be a fair total. However, the game is early enough that I do not have as many Kings as any of the above four cases.
