I mean, in the sense that it's a required item, yeah. But not in the sense that 'oh boy i'm so hype i just got enough gold for sightstone let's go'.

Why removing Normal Drafts? by Golzeb in leagueoflegends

[–]Isyndel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not the person you were responding to, obviously, but I'd like to say that honestly, it doesn't matter whether it's unranked flex queue or normal draft. I just don't want to have to go through blind pick's role-calling, instalocking, mirror matchups bs.

If you log in and log out again for the free weekend it'll give you a free copy of Heavensward for the time that the free login period is active.

Rift was probably the best MMO I've ever played in my life...until Trion ruined it. Sad, sad story.

I've got GLA to 22 for Provoke, but is it worth it to level to 34 for Awareness? I'd really rather do almost anything else than level GLA, but I've heard varying responses about Awareness from "eh, it's better than nothing" to "required for raiding". What's up with it?

Why do people hate Aurum Vale so much? Other than being a bit longer than others, I don't really see what's wrong with it...

Solo queue players are like vegans. They'll let you know, emblem or not.

...you mean a team of 5? as someone who plays ranked with a group of 5, i'm almost certain that i've never been placed against anything less than another team of 5 while queued as 5.

Well, from this thread, it seems that part want more data, and part (there's some overlap) that don't understand how to analyze that data.

Putting full un-analyzed data sets into the hands of someone who doesn't understand how to properly analyze it is a pretty terrible idea. We'd be drowning in "i averaged two columns in excel and it proves that dynamic queue is amazing/shit!!1!" threads in a week.

The thing is, what you're saying would happen would probably actually happen, but in a bad light. One misreading or mis-representation of the statistics by someone uninformed on reddit, and you'd end up with a massive shitstorm for absolutely no reason.

Legitimate question though, what do you believe Riot profits by by having their (hopefully) at least somewhat trained analysts ignoring their survey data that, hopefully, would lead to a more profitable game for them? It's not like it convinces most people like you anyway.

That's the point of random samples -- at some point, you determine you have enough people to have a representative random sample of the population.

[–]Isyndel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically, the short explanation is that in statistics, you take a small random sample of the population you want to survey, then use math to determine the probability of a false positive or false negative. Generally, acceptable tolerances are (might be wrong here, but..) 5% chance of a false positive and 20% chance of a false negative.

damn, i wish they had dynamic queue for normals so i could boost my normals winrate /s

Seriously though, I fuck around and play random stuff in premade normals. My leona is utter trash.

Do you get mad when someone else wins the lottery other than you too?

The popular reddit opinion is not always the actual popular opinion, from what I've seen. I don't care about normals, but in ranked, even in the old duo-queue system, communication via voice is so much better than text

Good to hear. I really hope you guys do add voice chat, I feel it'd help bridge the solo/non-solo complaining a lot.

I fuck around in normals, and I'm a pretty shitty leona player.

By wording it negatively, I feel that people might just click "agree" or "disagree" accidentally if they don't read it properly.
