I find that the compromise reached is a sensible one, and thank you for talking to Hapi007 about the matter. If you wish to talk at any point, I have been on RuneScape more recently, and keep my private chat open.
This feels kinda harsh, coming to a friend on one wiki for help on another one, but hey. RS-wiki's standard tables have a real nice format, I can't find a way of duplicating it on poker.wikia, is this an issue with the background settings or am I just looking in the wrong place? --Serenity1137 22:08, 25 July 2009 (UTC)

How allowed would it be to create a template that then uses an extremely large amount of calculations (possibly around 10^13)? Serenity1137 11:02, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
Poker statistics, the easiest way is to simply look at every possible outcome, and then analyze each of those. One could be clever and cut most out (lots will be irrelevant) but each cut on processing requires a lot of thought and time. --Serenity1137 08:47, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
P.S.
I'm liking those drop tables, I came to the conclusion that things like the average kill value settle down by the time you get to 100 kills, along with -to a lesser extent- the more common of drops (i.e. gold to 1 sig fig). It might be worth taking it back to YG, your one with 500 kills is a good show of what we can expect from these tables in early stages. I would personally suggest that we make a subpage on every NPC page with a drop log for F2P, P2P with no drop enhancement and so on. We could then link to them from the main NPC page once they have 500 kills or more. With a warning about inaccuracy which we could remove if the kill number gets massive (10,000 should be enough to cover all the drops of most F2P monsters).
...in the proposed media policy! I tried to start more discussion on the existing yew grove topic but that didn't go anywhere. What do you recommend I do to spark some more discussion/action in regards to this? Start a new yew grove topic? That's the only thing I can think of doing, but I don't know if that's the best idea since it would be a duplicate of an existing yew grove topic. Nothing has happened in quite a while and I don't want this to just die in the planning stages... Psycho Robottalk 12:05, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Do you know why it is that sometimes, when I upload an image, it takes hours or even days for the new version to actually be shown? Its so annoying and leads to a ton of confusion. Is it something on my system, or is it a global thing? Is there any way to fix it? Psycho Robottalk 01:03, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
Well, I minorly modified the current logo to produce this:. It is only a higher quality version of the current one, the runes used our CFLMs, so they are smoother and better.

Hi, I really do appreciate the work you managed to do on my signature, but I was wondering on a few things, First off, I was curious to whether you can add a talk icon to the signature. Also, If i was to upload a picture of a golden guthix symbol and a trimmed herblore cape, Could you possibly make the backgrounds transparent and add those instead?
Hi, ive had a little change of mind. On the herblore cape side of the picture, there is a picutre of a person mixing a potion and wearing a herblore cape with a view from behind that can be found on the Herblore cape page. Could you use that instead? Also I would like instead of the guthix icon, a super defence potion or any other golden potion picture.
code you gave me for adding my name in a large golden manner at the top of the page, however, the code doesnt seem to of done anything the the word written down in it. I want the words to appear in the top, central area of the displayed green area and it has not happened... Possibly an error with the coding?
Ive also thrown a support for you on the Member of the month, goodluck!

The short answer would be: Yes. In fact, I was planning to move some of our Exchange items so that the names matches their in-game names. Last time I checked there were over 160 items, but the number of items could have increased recently after the update you mentioned. Could you provide me with some details of the items that needs moving? I need the ID, the item name, and the new item name. If you want, you could update the Task #5 table in AzBot's page yourself.

Ohai I be reporting a vandal that has a bit of a back story, so its not suitable for the one-liner of the CVU. This vandal, User:Chiro9 keeps making the same edit, over and over, to the Plague quest series article and its template (here are the most recent examples: article, template). Each time the edit has been reverted, and he has received multiple requests to stop on his talk page, yet he continues to persist. I believe that this person is a user account created by an anonymous IP (84.236.6.160), which made the same edit as Chrio9 over and over and over. This IP had also received multiple requests to stop on their talk page. Any help you could give in this situation would be appreciated, be it protecting the pages or blocking the user involved.

Hi Gaz. Sorry for being so annoying but I need a coding advice. I'd like to ask how can I add up 2 numbers. For example {{GEPrice|Maple logs}} comes out as a number 45. If I wanted to add the price of Teak logs to Maple ones I'd just put a + between them like you did with minus in my experience table. So it would look like this: {{GEPrice|Maple logs}}+{{GEPrice|Teak logs}} but it doesn't work and only comes out as a text ( 45+115 ), not a value. Can you please help me again ?

Ooh,I like and . I was hoping someone would make those. --
Recently i managed to find myself using the rollback button due to a small successful application to one of the B'crats but im in major need of matinence on my... Mess of a user page.
How would I be able to add extra pages to my userpages for different subjects? Possibly one page for Me, One for the wiki, One for runescape, ect.
I did a drop log of 121 kills of Kalphite workers and updated the charm drop information using your spiffy new template. You will see on the discussion page for that monster that another player disagreed with the numbers I came up with, saying I had too small of a kill rate for my drop percentages to be accurate.
I've been doing some research, and found the formula that's used in this case so that when (for example) you measure 6 gold charms out of 121 kills (5.0%), you can say with 90% confidence that the actual drop rate is somewhere between 2.6% and 9.3%. That range obviously tightens up as you do more kills and get more data.
Do we want to somehow specify the charm drop rate as a range? Or does that just get really ugly really fast?
Charm drop percentages
No Charm
86 - 94%
3 - 9%
1 - 6%
0 - 4%
0 - 4%
Or maybe just some text under the table that says (if the total # of kills is < 250) that the data may be off due to a small sample size?
I really like the template you created, and I think it gives the data an indication that it really came from actual research, as opposed to most drop frequency indications which seem to be one player on one day got a couple of charms and so changed the text to "common".
OK, check out Template:Charm_table_stats and tell me what you think. In action in Kalphite_worker. Maybe we could add text under it encouraging users to help boost the accuracy by submitting drop logs (if the # of kills is small) .
And now check out Template:Charm_drop_start, it's some templates I was playing with that let different players record their charm drops, and then have the summary of their drops be all that appears in the monster page. I put a test on my page: User:Cscooper

I was wondering if you could help me out with some table formatting. I'm trying to add "View" and "Update" links to all the Best X Attack/Defence pages that I've been working on a lot over the past month, but I can't really think of where to put them. I've added some to Armour/Best Crush Attack, but I don't really like the placement, and I was wondering if you had any ideas of where else it could be. Psycho Robottalk 23:38, September 2, 2009 (UTC)
I think that looks great! I tried to put it there too, but the only way I knew how to do it was <div align="right"></div> which did not work! I'm gonna go ahead and put that in all the other tables, since I am forced to take a break from my previous project: updating a lot of the inventory images to remove shadows and replace .GIF images with .PNG images. Why must I take a break you ask? Take a look at the new inventory sprites for just about every item... it has to be a mistake... it just has to... but I don't know for sure, and I don't want to do a ton of work that I'd have to revert right away.

Sadly, I don't think my signature is working as it used to. For those who have CSS enabled, it should be colored white, with a randomly-colored glow around the edge. The reason I had had to use a table was because this CSS effect does not work with spans. Looking at my signature now, you will see this is not quite what is happening now. I will look into other ways of creating this effect. The main reason that I was using multiple pages was so that I could have all the parts of the signature the same color even when using the random color template. I will try to set this up with #vardefine instead.

Yea I'm bugging you again. I was just randomly reading through your user page, and I noticed that your favorite familiar is the Magpie, cuz you make money without doing a thing. BUT! Did you know that a Fruit bat is even better money? Even though the stuff is worth less than gems, it lasts a lot longer, so you typically wind up with 15k-20k per pouch. Try it out! Psycho Robottalk 01:56, September 29, 2009 (UTC)
I'll admit that I have not done any formal studies or anythingg. I just noticed that with a magpie I typically get around 7k per pouch, or since the timer is about half an hour, ~14k an hour. You could do 1 and a quarter fruit bats in that hour, which would net me around 20-25k. Its a pretty primitive study, and I'll be very interested in seeing what your more comprehensive study shows. The seeds are what really make the fruit bat profitable, just a few watermelon and strawberry seeds and you've got 20-30k there. Psycho Robottalk 18:03, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

I don't know if you play any other games except Runescape, but it is very common for game companies to keep things that didn't make the final cut or are still being worked on in data files being distributed to the client for one reason or another.
There is no way you can prove that the 'music skillcape' in the video is one of the cancelled things (or something that 100% will come out). The only way to confirm is that it does come out and proves that it is the 'music skillcape' or whatever. You could try asking a J-Mod, but I'd be very surprised if they don't deny everything.

Just kidding, no adulation for you! Instead, do you know of a way we could modify the {{Infotable Bonuses header}} template so it includes a picture without breaking all prior uses? Or would it just be easier to make a completely new template? Psycho Robottalk 00:00, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
Great, that'll be nice for full sets and whatnot. However immediately after I asked that question, I was struck with another thought: what if in addition to the image of the full set on the right, we had an inventory sprite for each row on the left? Would that be at all possible without messing everything up? I'm a perfectionist and I like having every bit of info <.< Psycho Robottalk 01:21, October 3, 2009 (UTC)

I tried it out on my page and it looks great! Thanks for all your help! There are only a couple things I see that could do with a bit of improving, first of which is, when specifying the number of rows, how about we specify the number of items instead, then add 4 rows to that input (2 for the header and 2 for the total at the bottom, although if we do this how would we handle multiple totals?). Also could the picture have a white background? Currently it has a light blue one (or is that just my eyes?) Once again thanks Psycho Robottalk 02:23, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
That is insanely awesome. I shall make it my personal goal to go through all the pages I can and changing the tables so they make full use of this new feature. One last request (until I come up with another) would it be possible to modify the code to include a second image? For example, one with a plateskirt and one with platelegs, or one with each of the two weapons in Morrigan's Equipment? Psycho Robottalk 19:36, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
