Quote:180 attempts, 30 success. whats going on here. what has changed?
I did 180, too, and 150 were successful.
Guess it balances out. |

My base invention chance is 50.4%, which makes my base failure rate 49.6%. This makes it marginally more likely for me to see 150 successes out of 180 attempts than 150 failures out of 180 attempts.
You had 150 failures out of 180 attempts.
I'm not sure what is so unbelievable about this. |

My base invention chance is higher then yours, and as always, if you flip a coin, there will be stretches of one side or the other, but not on 180 runs. There should be balance by then.
your quote of 150/180 success is moronic, please go troll someplace else you clown
Er... lie about my success chances?
If you have all 5s, the base chance for module invention is 50.4%. Yours is not higher than this. Nobody's is. Without using decryptors or metaitems, that is literally as high as it can possibly be.
Since there's a 50.4% chance of success per job, the odds of seeing 150 out of 180 jobs succeed is slightly better than seeing 150 out of 180 jobs fail (only a 49.6% chance per job).
This, my quoted 150/180 successes is, in fact, more likely than your quoted 150/180 failures. So, however moronic my claim of 150/180 successes may be, your claim of 150/180 failures is slightly more moronic.
180, btw, is not even remotely near being a statistically significant number.
Maybe the RNG just likes me better? |

You're confusing your success rate with your success chance. Your success chance, absent meta-level items or decryptors, is no higher than 50.4%. The invention success chance formula is a known value that is trivially easy to calculate.
Quote:180 invention runs is significant. trust me kid,
Okay. I'll trust the quasi-literate forum poster in dire need of a remedial statistics course over the rest of the world's knowledge of probability and quantitative methods.
Seems like a prudent course of action.
Quote:the fact that I gave real numbers, and you just barfed up the exact opposite of the numbers I gave reduces the credibility of your post to zero. So why are you continuing to troll? Please stop being such a mongrol and go find something better to do with your time.
Because people who are bad at math tickle my funnybone. |

Question: If there had been an actual massive nerf to invention chances that started two weeks ago, don't you think there would have been a hell of a lot more forum posts than yours asking about this over the last two weeks? Neut the bastards |

Indeed! That is why I have not arrested my invention runs. Also that is why I put "secret" in the title of this thread. It is as if something has changed but was not mentioned. I was hoping a few other people who manufacture could weigh in, but I keep getting some mongrol beta mutt posting every 15 minutes. |

It is slightly odd that I ran 180 runs, and so did you!!! wow what are the odds, it is almost like you just came to troll. Pathetic. So you are posting lies, why wont you stop?
I'm not sure which part it is that you think is a lie. Do you not agree that the base success chance with all 5s for module invention is 50.4%?
Your sample size of 180 runs is ludicrously small compared to the number of invention jobs being run in the aggregate. Do you have any idea how many invention jobs are run every day?
To reach the long term expected value of 50.4% success would only require (roughly) 7 players in addition to yourself enjoying a 55% success rate across 180 runs each.
Hell, at 30/180 you're really only about one standard deviation out. You're at the far end of it, to be sure, but it's really not that radical an occurrence. |

You need more than 180 runs to be statistically significant. That is stats 101.

Im not really sure what you think you are going to gain from all of this.
Well, hopefully what I (and the rest of S&I) will gain is one fewer poster rushing to the forums to post about phantom nerfs every time he hits a cold streak. |

Yeah, they picked one random guy in the game to nerf his invention success rate, and didn't post about it in the notes. Now we know who it was though.

"Inconceivable!"
Low probability doesn't mean it is impossible, only less likely. The probability of being struck by lightning is also pretty low, but people still are struck.
The probability of r successes out of n attempts with probability p of success = n! / (r! * (n - r)!) * p^r * (1 - p)^(n - r)
The probability of 30 successes out of 180 attempts with level 4 skills on modules (0.4826) = 0.000000000000000000505825970205
The probability of 86 successes out of 180 attempts with level 4 skills on modules (0.4826) = 0.058950496448170902623234019397
The probability of 70 to 100 successes: 0.974379162184268745425061706752
You were unlucky to fall outside the 70 to 100 range into the less than 2.6% territory. Stuff happens. |

I run 9 toons - 10 slots minmum on each - and put 270 slots in inventing every day -> nothing has changed!
I sometimes pull 70/90 other times only 30 and once 13/90 ( no lies) however i do pull more 45-70 up invention succes then lowballers- but overal it evens out well over 50% succes rate every week
You got unlucky - i think you missed that little word 'CHANCE' Inferno do stuff with stuff to imitate the stuff you could do faster with the old stuff
