Talk:Lucky Hochei

Why we should all love Rock, Paper, Scissors
Playing 25 times yielded the following results. For a grand total of 12 Fortunes (which would have cost 36 Tokens at the LFG) AND 8 free Sugary Blue Drinks        00:34, 17 February 2007 (CST)
 * 8 wins = 8 fortunes + 8 Sugary Blue Drinks
 * 4 ties = 4 fortunes
 * 13 loses = nothing
 * Problem is that in the time it took you to play 25 times, you could have easily gained more than 36 tokens by doing the quests on secondary characters, or playing beetle races. 83.159.9.78 06:20, 17 February 2007 (CST)
 * I was just thinking of maximizing the return on Tokens, for people who don't have many characters or who have done all the quests on their current characters and were unable/didn't want to make more.
 * If you suck at beetle races, you may not get many Tokens. The races to take time to Enter (sometimes not enough players) and time to finish.
 * Using the stats someone added to the article (Playing 99 consecutive rounds using /rock each round, yielded 33 Sugary Blue Drinks and 62 Lunar Fortunes.), it would have cost 62*3-99=87 MORE Tokens at the Lunar Fortune Giver
 * You would have received ZERO Sugary Blue Drinks (IDK their current value... but 100gp would seem like a reasonable minimum).
 * To get 87 Tokens Beetle Racing it would take 13 1st place wins OR 18 2nd place wins OR 29 3rd place wins OR some combination thereof...    [[Image:jkr.jpg]]    18:31, 17 February 2007 (CST)

Rock?
If you use the command /rock, you'll have the most chance to win/tie and get fortunes. Well, I noticed he uses alot of scissors/rock, so I used rock all the time and I got alot (soz, didn't count the total) of fortunes. anyone else noticed this? --Elder 04:12, 17 February 2007 (CST)


 * Not to be too much of a troll but you realize there's an equal chance to win with every option, right? --Pork soldier 07:08, 17 February 2007 (CST)


 * I hate to sound like one of those people who look for patterns in lottery numbers, but since computer-generated random numbers cannot be entirely guaranteed to be random in their distribution, I wanted to keep count of my RPS games. Below is his choices, FWIW, YMMV, ETC.--Ishmaeel 07:35, 17 February 2007 (CST)
 * Rock : 40 (27%)
 * Paper : 50 (35%)
 * Scissors : 55 (38%)


 * I didn't note it in my original post but I choose /rock each of the 25 times, so I wouldn't have to retype anything ;-) ...And as the saying goes, "There are lies, there are damn lies, and then there statistics"   [[Image:jkr.jpg]]     18:31, 17 February 2007 (CST)

I found that if I chose whatever option he chose last, I had about 4/5 chance of winning. I only started doing this after I had 20~30 tickets left so I didn't keep a fully accurate count, but I only lost about 4~6 times after doing this. After I get 99 tickets I'll try it again and keep track.
 * Out of 99 tokens, my results are: Rock = 32, Paper = 26, and Scissors = 41.
 * And as a side note, I ended up with 62 fortune tickets, and 23 bottles of sugary drinks.
