giroml · Aug 29, 2005, 11:48 PM // 23:48

Yes I have but I didn't want to say anything because I thought I was going crazy.

Shadowdaemon · Aug 31, 2005, 11:03 AM // 11:03

different areas drop different amounts, but i have noticed that in a certain area it is often the same number over and over.

medikamen · Aug 31, 2005, 11:50 AM // 11:50

It bothers you? Little tiny babies in Iraq are dying by the hour, and this bothers you :-)

I sense a political discussion arising

If it bothers him, so be it.

November Raine · Aug 31, 2005, 02:35 PM // 14:35

agreed..that should really be the end of this discussion

Kuku Monk · Aug 31, 2005, 03:24 PM // 15:24

Hmm interesting, I've never really paid (no pun intended

) much attention to that. I'll start watching it now.

There is remarkable consistency about the gold drops in certain areas. Perhaps it is a function of the level of the opponent? Rather than being bothered, you ought to try to work out the algorithm that Anet uses to calculate the drops. The consistency of odd numbers is a big clue . . .

This is relevant to the game how? Death happens, part of life, no biggy.

2^6 - 1 = 63

It's the whim of the math gods.
