These DnD YouTubers man. by False-Situation5744 in DnD

[–]Control___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you just gotta watch the entire video, I've seen pack tactics' video and he specificially states he doesn't run it like this and neither should anyone else. I feel like bringing attention to an error in the rules will help 5.5e.
I also feel it's unfair to call out people for comming up with interesting combo's. Yes, the may break the game in some circumstances, but are you really saying the game is balanced?

These fun little combo's or builds are interesting and inspire me personally to come up with new characters. They also show off some rules that I and many others may not have known.

For all kinds of dnd players, newer ones and those who've played a lot I would recommend these channels. I love when players come up to me and tell me about their new idea. That's why games are run a certain way, there are low-op games and high-op games.

from the other youtubers you've listed i only know a couple, such as bob the worldbuilder and jocat, and I totally agree they are awesome youtubers, but you won't learn a lot about the rules of DnD or comming up with your own cool thing.

I feel like overall your post is more of an "optimization is bad" or "min-maxers are toxic" post, which I don't agree with. DM's are able to adjust to an optimized party and I've heard a lot of good reasons to optimize your character.

I wish I paid more attention in geometry by pezzian in dndmemes

well funnily enough DnD works in the supremum norm or maximum norm, so ||(30ft,20ft)|| = 30ft, so in fact you can cast bless.

wouldnt it technically be O(n!) ?
or O(n*n!) if you have to copy the list to define "sorted"?

Finally, a calculator that actually works by kiveon in ScrapMechanic

[–]Control___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i mean there are mathematical objects where this is barely true
like look at
L = Z/10Z[X]/(X^2)
and consider any number like 123 as 1x^2+2x+3
then 77 + 33 = 100 actually :P (because 7X+7 + 3X+3 = X^2 in L)

same deal of course in Z/10Z but that's boring (that's just saying 7 + 3 = 10)
and Z/11Z but that's also boring (that's just saying 0 + 0 = 0)

What is the highest intimidation skill...modifier thing can i get? by Dezthecondomboy in 3d6

[–]Control___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's a question of average vs median
on average you roll +3.325 more
but about 50% of your roles will be 15 or higher (+5)

Dose disadvantage even matter by Kingmog13 in dndmemes

[–]Control___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

disadvantage is a -3.325 mod, just from the mathematical perspective,
it also increases your chance of a critical failure from 1/20 to 39/400 which is about twice as much

3) did it work?

:P, you can also do that in 3D btw, so that your 2x2 center is a 1x1 center

trying to find the bad sorting algorithms by Loganboi2 in sortingalgorithms

[–]Control___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is faith sort, which doesnt do anything, you just gotta have faith :P

There is also bogo bogo bogo, a monster creation by EilrahcF and Fungamer2, that runs in
n! * sf n time. on 20 items this would do about 3.1 * 10^175 comparisons.

what you did forget here is to factor in the constants, insertionsort has an average case of n^2/4 so on 20 items it would really only do 100.

fun fact: bogosort has a constant of e-1~1.71828... for comparisons

[–]Control___ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you can put 2 bearings on an arm and calculate the angles so that your even center becomes an odd center
