Kentngo's Experiment

Perhaps I'm a bit OCD for music, but I'll be performing a test later. The test will be about Instruments and their Balance. The control for this experiment will be me equipping a basic, honest to Lymilark, 50% Balance Lute. Then I'll waste 1 score scroll worth of rank 6 CaramellDansen (kill me) with rank 3 Instrument Playing and record how many times it sounds good, or not.

Next, I'll use the 100 plays worth of CaramellDansen with a 60% Balance Mandolin. Again, rank 6 scroll, rank 3 playing, the desire to kill myself by the end of it.

Afterwards, to make sure it's not just the instrument, I'll waste the durability of my own +7% Balance Mandolin to find out whether or not the Balance matters, or just the Instrument, or whether neither matter at all.

Since there will be a chance that the results are split, I'll be using a confidence level of 90% between the Lute and Mandolin, 93% between the Mandolin and upgraded Mandolin. Of 100 tries, if the Lute, Mandolin are 3-4 successes off, I'll know they're about the same. The Mandolin and Epic Mandolin, with a higher confidence level, is given a 2-3 success difference.

Talk about no life, huh? --Kentngo 20:41, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Lute: 28 Successes, 72 failures Epic Mandolin: 33 Successes, 67 failures

There's only a 5 success difference between the two. If there is a difference between them, it's probably not a lot at all. I'll try the normal Mandolin next. --Kentngo 15:24, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

ever since the Starlet update, the wind instruments stray from their "wood colors," which is usually some sort of brown or gray. Now it's everywhere in the spectrum. Was this intended?

Probably.
