Bimmer745i Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I went on World 1 the other day and took down the combat levels of a rather large number of players at four different free-to-play locations. This is what I found: Varrock median level: 45 Lumbridge median level: 27 Falador median level: 50 Karamja median level: 58 Locations where I took these statistics Varrock: near the general store, on the path leading to Lumbridge Lumbridge: On the path by the combat tutors Falador: On the path next to the east bank Karamja- Lobster fishing point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rareghoul1 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 uhhh, ok. there was a thread discussing random rs facts, if someone could post it for him that would be good. i don't have the patience to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewagold2 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 It's cause the lower levels stay closer to home, until they grow up and explore. lol ^Clicky for Q Cape Blog^MY SIGGIE AND BANNER SHOP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firsttsurugi Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 i hope this isn't spam, but what exactly is the point of these statistics. these medians could change within a minute, especially in suck a full place. Currently will be using my Oni Tsurugi account to attempt to get 99 on all free skills without spending any gp, just for the sake of doing so.

Dork Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 This thread doesn't generate any important discussion... And your post shows that people still don't seem to realise they should report a post they think should be locked, instead of posting on it. Curious, how many people did you count in each area to get these figures, obviously the more you get the more accurately it will show the levels of players in certain areas.

rareghoul1 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 i'm surprised at how high the lumbridge average was. how many people did you count in? unless it was a low number and you got one high level, that's pretty surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firsttsurugi Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Why median and not average? There the same thing. Wow I'm the first person to report this.. :-s umm, i don't know where you go to school, but whoever told you that was lying. a median is the number in the middle of the numbers given. the average is all the numbers added up, then divided by the amount of numbers there are (also called the mean) Currently will be using my Oni Tsurugi account to attempt to get 99 on all free skills without spending any gp, just for the sake of doing so.

rareghoul1 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Whats the point of them staying in Lumberidge? nothing to do there :-s killing goblins, cutting trees, killing cows, doing those extremely idiotic quests that take 2 minutes.... listening to tutors.... plenty of things to do. i made a new f2p account the other day and it still hasn't left lumbridge, there's plenty to do.

Lime_Mercury Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I did another little count like that right after the poll where members voted on their age/gender. Went to ardougne, counted the number of male and female characters I saw and came to the conclusion that 3 of every 4 female characters you see is indeed a female. Wish I still had those numbers. so there's this thread in p2p general called "the most annoying things ppl do on runescape" i am tempted to post "ya wen im cybering with a girl and they log off for no reason" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smapla Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I hope you realize that median does not mean average. median means the middle result of a set of data. take for example this set: 1,1,1,3,4,9,9 the median is three. the mean is four. the mode (most occuring) is one.

skeroh Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 But why did you pick the median? wouldn't the mode matter more? because if you have two or three lvl 126 and the rest of the people mostly lvl 60, the 126's would greatly distrupt the data...

Freesia Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Why the median? you basically have to compile a table of frequency against lvls and doing some calculations. Finding the mean would be much more accurate. Mode is useless. :notalk: Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

That's why the raw data should be posted. If you go by standard deviation, the 126's may be outside the norm, and considered outliers, and not computed into an average. Can you post the raw data?

Hooya2 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 interesting median and average are the same thing technically, or rather median is one kind of average. average is a category that includes mean, median, and mode. generally average is used to mean "mean", which is all statistics added up and divided by the number of statistics lol and who the hell knows how to get standard deviation?
