Dice analyzer 1.5.1a, 1.5.1b and 1.5.1c

Individual game statistics have not worked for some time.

I know this is ah, rather late so to speak, but someone mentioned on page one that the CC dice are streaky.

That's because they are truly random. It's a common misconception that for something to be "random" it must be ABBBAABAABBBABABA or something like that. In a set of 10, with truly random dice, it's entirely possible to get straight B's or A's.

I just added this my user scripts. Wish I'd known about this yesterday. >.>;; Tossed a lot of dice between then and now.

Also, this is my very first post.

Aaaaand it looks like I necro'd it. D: Nooooo, I sowwie!

I've read a lot about the 'streakiness' and 'randomness' (or not!) of our CC dice. And although I am very new to CC, I am not surprised to read such a lot of discussion of this subject, since we all have no choice but to hope that we all treated equally and fairly.

However, it is the nature of random things to behave in apparently bizarre ways, especially if one looks at a relatively small distribution of the statistics. Let me give you an example...

Many years ago I was a fool: I used to gamble on Roulette. I had studied statistics and come up with a cunning staking system that would limit my losses. It involved playing on up to three of the six available 'evens' bets. [RED or BLACK, ODD or EVEN, 1-18(LOW) or 19-36(HIGH).

-Is it not reasonable to expect that over a given time, the number of RED numbers should be very close to equalling the number of BLACK numbers?

Statistically the answer is yes, it is entirely reasonable.

But over any relatively small sample - let's say just one evening visit from the 100 in the year - what can seem like bizarre behaviour can and DOES occur !

I doubt that anyone reading this will believe the following sentence unless they have studied statistics; and even then this may be hard to take.

I have witnessed 44 consequetive RED numbers. I have witnessed 27 consequetive ODD numbers TWICE and I have witnessed 34 consequetive HIGH numbers.

But you know what? -Since installing this lovely little gadget called 'Dice Analyzer' my dice have been far more friendly that the crazy crap I got before!

I take it all back! Haha... The randomness has bitten me again, and badly!

No doubt we all have similar stories but for those of you who think the dice are against you, beat this if you can:

33 attackers against 5 defenders. No contest I hear you say.
-Think again! The outcome has me left with 2 and he still has 3 defenders intact! I lost 31 armies and still didn't win the territory!!!

Aah well, back to the drawing board...

[sailorseal]

Well what about 102 attackers and 20 defenders?
I was left with 3 he was left with 15


or 10 against 1
I lost all the way to 1

Yes sailorseal, 'randomness' is a difficult thing to accept sometimes!

Good thing randomness only occurs randomly

Is it possible to analyze the dice rolls on defense as well?

[lancehoch]

Is it possible to analyze the dice rolls on defense as well?

For the people defending against you? This is done within this script.
For your territories when someone is attacking you? I am not sure that is possible. If you were on at the same time as someone who was taking their turn, you could see the wins and losses, however I am not sure that it is possible for you to see the numbers on the "intensity cubes" for the times when someone else attacks.

I think the question refers to whether defending dice can be analysed when it is the opponents turn?

That way, it is possible to evaluate overall luckiness or unluckiness.

It's no good being sllghtly lucky if your opponent is extremely lucky!

[DJ Teflon]

It would also be useful if the analyser could show what dice are like on the first (often most crucial) move?

Plus, if the analyser could be expanded to a general luck analyser that would be great, showing how often you get to go first and how often you can cash spoils with just 3 (or 4).

Again, as with the above post, it would be handy to analyse this along with the same for opponents.

As long as it is active, there should be an option on the Personal Menu, below Referral Program that says Dice Analyzer. Click it and you will see your dice stats.
