You just quoted my response. It's those lines underneath where I quoted you detailing how and why you are wrong. I'll be eagerly awaiting your rebuttal.

Nice to know you laughed, but the (apparently) trolling certainly didn't work - I enjoy proving people wrong, and I conclusively did so to you 8-) Not at all, he's self contradicting. First he says he disagrees with me, then he makes an analogy saying that slayer is better.

I haven't changed my mind yet in this argument, all that's happened is that you've completely misunderstood my posts. Now you've resorted to falsifying information. WIkipedia SPECIFICALLY said age was a factor, and it obviously is. How can your mind be mature when your brain isn't fully grown? Psychological maturity, meaning "Maturity of the mind". Not only has wikipedia and the 3 other sources I quoted proven you wrong, even your own argument is. How is your mind (psychological) supposed to be mature when your brain isn't? Hello, you mind IS your brain.

I hate to break it to you, but both of us are playing the same game and as such, using the same hit calculator. You never reposted. Since you seem to have finished that, then let's see your hit log. I'll post mine and we can compare results to see just where your source of error is.

My mind is quite made up, feel free to show where I've changed. Not really, especially when it's true Did I ever say I had an idea that was better? I don't recall doing so, perhaps you could point out the post :roll: Ever heard of "Constructive Criticism"? It might be a shock to knock you out of your fairy world, but unfortunately the idea you proposed would be unworkable and severely detrimental to gameplay as a whole for the above reasons. There's a reason Jagex doesn't listen to these suggestions - think an idea through fully, or don't post it at all.

You said you haden't even collected 100 hits yet, when at least 1,000 would be required for any sort of results. Oh, and I have given a fact, and a relevant one too. News flash: Testing has conclusively proven dark bow more accurate then magic short bow, and your limited results (as well as your rant) are wrong.

Woot, someone undersands \ Please do me a favor and explain it to Qel, he's going to come back soon and I don't want to go through it again :pray:

No, I'm 'flaming' you because your wrong. As said before, you have far too small of a sample range; I've run tests with a much larger range and numbers don't lie. Your trying to argue against facts, and it really doesn't go that well.

Not sure who or what your referring to, but without complete frontal lobe functioning, planning, non task-based long term memory, and possibly basic motor functions would be adversely affected.

143, or so mensa says ;) What do you mean, though? Your arguing, not trolling. I was just happy there was a debate, but it seems to have ended :|

That's my point. If it hits, but the number is only .1-.5, you'll hit a zero but heal. If it doesn't hit, it'll hit a zero and you won't heal. It's the best way to tell if your healing or not. Another way is when you heal a zero with guthans, but the special is randomly activated so it's a pain.

There are two arguments here: #1, XP\Profit (Numbers) #2, Fun (Opinion) Now, on the numbers side of it, slayer is obviously inferior to zombies. But on the opinion side of it, I believe slayer is superior to zombies. He was talking about the opinion side, so I'm not sure what he believes - he said he thinks differently then me, so he must hate slayer and like zombies, but I didn't get the food analogy.

I know, that's what I meant too - I was just backing you up, as he doesn't seem to be aware of this simple combat fact, again bringing his experience (at least for me) into question. It's not as accurate. SGS is simple - if you heal, you hit, if you don't, you haven't. Easy way to verify that my calculations for 0s and missing are indeed correct.

[hide=][/hide] I am leet. Also got half a dozen other PKs, one pair of FM brawlers, nothing great.

Splashing is the same as missing in melee. If you miss in melee, you hit a 0. Apparently he doesn't realize that, just as with mage, you can 'hit' with melee\range and still hit a 0; anything under .5 is rounded down. I take it all into account when calculating numbers, though, and SGS spec is an accurate way to see if the hit actually went through.

3rd demon head at 84 slayer. Also got another whip earlier, but I got a random event as I clicked to pick it up and it was gone by the time I got back :(

Who cares about your price checker? Item prices change. That dark bow might have been 2.7m when you did the task, but that doesn't mean your going to make 4m an hour. Randoms are quite common when banking and getting tasks, I missed out on a wihp earlier today from it. Banking times MUST be separated for accurate data, as the variability is too high; they are calculated secondly. How do ypu plan on recording them without 'dumping' into excel, and how can you do ANY calculations on it? It's almost impossible to average out rates based on frequency and probability of drops using a simple calculator and notepad; the possibility of an error is almost certain. Not that it matters, you don't even have a speck of data to back up your arguments. What? Are you trying to say Armored Zombies is the best way to train? I love training slayer, and I don't get what training it has to do with eating the heaviest calorie food. :roll:

But they don't give timings for kills along with banking times and drop logs. Plus it's harder to dump them into Excel where they can be graphed and charted, or allow for random events.

Dead pixels wouldn't influence your slayer numbers, so no worries there. That being said, it's generally a good idea to log XP rates when your, you know, debating about XP rates. Otherwise you just end up making up numbers and then look stuipd when your proven wrong by actual testing.

All drops accounted for, details on numbers available on pages 10 to 20. Take a look there and argue with individual numbers if you want to make this into a debate. Yeah, it must suck to be called out on not having any numbers to back your argument up in only the 2nd post Sorry, but dragon boots are only 476k per hour (page 23), and there are many other ways of earning money faster like DKS (0 slayer) GWD (0 slayer) Avansies (0 slayer) and Green Dragons (0 slayer).

Guess what? So does melee. You can hit and still hit a zero; if the hit is less then .5 it'll round down. Same ways as mage. What's your point?

Check out this thread: http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=783809 "Your rants also need to be worthy of discussion. Rather than saying, "I don't like this, it sucks," you need to present a valid argument for your rant and back it up." Does he have a valid argument for his rant? Nope, it's quite the opposite - he's ranting about something that has already been proven dead wrong. Not only is it spam, it's incorrect.

I would assume so. Anything else to add, or should I just consider your made up numbers trumped by a few thousand hours of tests?

Or you could repartition it through the setup program, install on the other partition, and recover files from the first. Or put it in an enclosure. Or put it in a friends computer. Very simple. Then you shouldn't have any problem updating the drivers from the setup program, if authentication wasn't causing it. Updating the bios isn't going to do jack squat to the OS. Actually, not only am I right, your dead wrong. Feel free to read the last 2,000 pages of replies that conclusively prove it, unlike your mythical 'slayer numbers' :roll: Why do I care what your bank looks like? I'm interested in XP rates, not how much money you made on 99 slayer :roll:

Well I never said I thought it sucked, so I guess you should re read the replies. As I said before, I love the skill.
