143 points so far
1 * 9 hits + 1 * 1 critical + 5 for hitting more than 6 = 15
143 + 15 = 158 points total

(Oh my gosh hitting this many is almost embarrassing...these dice are making me look very suspicious lol. Don't bother sending me another prize! I've gotten enough cheater prizes sweatdrop )

1, 9, 6, 7, 6, 6, 3, 4, 4, 4

7 * 1 = 7
1 * 3 = 3
5 pts for hitting 6 or more times

7 + 3 + 5 = 15 pts.


It seems like my calculations don't add up to what my points say on the first page so I'll just leave it to you.

You hit on rolls of 4-10 and crit on a 9 or 10.
- Hits are worth 1 point, crits are worth 3 points.
- Hitting 6 or more carrots in one go gives a whooping 5 extra points!

6 pts (today) & 16 (before) = 22 points total

Heya, I noticed the score you are keep tracking differs a bit from the one I write down. I think it might be because you count the crits as "4 points" (1 for a hit and 3 for being a crit); I give you this heads up in advance so that there will be less/no confusion at the end with the final scores.
I am really glad you play and I want you to keep playing. biggrin

~~~~~~~~~~~
Furthermore: I check all dice results and re-do the math and scores with each and every post.



No, I'm aware that

Quote:
Hits are worth 1 point, crits are worth 3 points.


I showed my calculation working every time so it's easy to check if I'd made an error. I calculated the crits separate from the hits. I think the difference in our calculations might be due to this line here
Quote:
Hitting 6 or more carrots in one go gives a whooping 5 extra points!

where as a result of this line, I add 5 to my total score each time because so far I've always hit more than 6 carrots. You might have accidentally left those 5 extra points out of each of those calculations?

It says in the rules:

Quote:
You hit on rolls of 4-10 and crit on a 9 or 10.
- Hits are worth 1 point, crits are worth 3 points.
Hitting 6 or more carrots in one go gives a whooping 5 extra points!


All my rolls:

22 Mar 2018 (Page 3):

Result:
4, 8, 6, 9, 4, 8, 1, 1, 2, 2

Hits: 4-10 = 6, crits: 9-10: 1

6 x 1 + 5 + 3 = 14 points.

23 Mar 2018 (Page 3):

Result: 8, 8, 8, 8, 3, 3, 4, 10, 10, 7

Hits: 4-10: 8, Crits: 9-10: 2

8x1+5 + 2x3 = 19 + 14 points from previous carrot salad = 33 cumulative points.

24 Mar 2018(Page 4):

Result: 2, 8, 9, 4, 4, 3, 4, 5, 5, 10

Hits: 4-10: 8, crits: 9-10: 2

8x1+5 + 2x3 = 19 + 33 points from previous carrot salad = 52 cumulative points.

25 Mar 2018 (Page 5):

Result: 8, 10, 10, 3, 10, 10, 8, 3, 2, 3

Hits: 4-10: 6, crits: 9-10: 6

6x1+5+6x3=29+52 (previous)=81 cumulative points

26 Mar 2018 (Page 6):

Result: 10, 10, 4, 10, 1, 4, 7, 4, 10, 9

Hits: 4-10: 9, crits: 9-10: 5

9x1+5+5x3=29+81(previous)=110 cumulative points

27 Mar 2018 (Page 6):

Result: 8, 5, 7, 3, 7, 1, 3, 7, 10, 6

Hits: 4-10: 7, crits: 9-10: 1

7x1+5 + 1x3 = 15 + 110 (previous) = 125 cumulative points

Please recalculate and see if I'm correct. I'm also very confused by this (and still confused by this) too. If my calculations are wrong, please do a sample calculation for one of the rolls above so I can compare my calculation with yours and see and understand where I've gone wrong. sad

I totally get your way of thinking, cuz that's how I read the rules too. But I looked at the first page where AngelMuerto was told his calculations were correct .. and have been adding it up that way.

The rules say:
"You hit on rolls of 4-10 and crit on a 9 or 10."

But it's more like: "You hit on rolls of 4-8 and crit on a 9 or 10."

So, 4 - 8 each get you one point. And 9 and 10 are each worth 3 points.

67 pts so far

Rolled:
5, 2, 8, 2, 2, 1, 10, 3, 2, 3

2 * 1 = 2 hits
1 * 3 = 3 crits

67 + 5 = 72 pts total

Exactly. You generally hit on a 4-10, but crit on a 9 or 10. A crit overwrites a normal hit, thus you get 3 instead of 1 point.
I might have written the rules misleading; for that, I am sorry. sweatdrop

Emmett Khan


As provided by your own post, you do list all hits (4-10) and count them as 1 point. Then you list the crits (9-10) and count them as 3 points even though you already listed those in the normal hit sections.
As I said, the point difference does come from the fact you basically count crits as "4 points" (once in the "hit" list for 1 point and once in the "crit" list for 3 points) and not from not adding the 5 extra points for hitting 6+.

Also to you: the rules might have been written misleading and for that I am really sorry.
The meaning of
Quote:
You hit on rolls of 4-10 and crit on a 9 or 10.

was that you generally hit on a result of 4-10 BUT crit on a 9 or 10. So a crit would overwrite a normal hit.
Quote:
- Hits are worth 1 point, crits are worth 3 points

Was an absolute. You definitely get 1 point for a hit and you definitely get 3 points for a crit.

Alrighty, thank you Sdrawcab and Marc Gosgosh for explaining the problem with my point calculations.

Chef Emmett Khan creates a carrot salad!:

Revised points calculation for all my rolls:

22 Mar 2018 (Page 3):

Result:
4, 8, 6, 9, 4, 8, 1, 1, 2, 2

Hits: 4-8: 5, crits: 9-10: 1, Hits + crits >6 or more carrots? Yes: +5 points

Revised points calculation: 5x1+5 + 1x3 = 13 points

23 Mar 2018 (Page 3):

Result: 8, 8, 8, 8, 3, 3, 4, 10, 10, 7

Hits: 4-8: 6 , Crits: 9-10: 2, Hits + crits >6 or more carrots? Yes: +5 points

Revised points calculation: 6x1+5 + 2x3 = 17 +13 (previous) = 30 cumulative points

24 Mar 2018(Page 4):

Result: 2, 8, 9, 4, 4, 3, 4, 5, 5, 10

Hits: 4-8: 6 , crits: 9-10: 2, Hits + crits >6 or more carrots? Yes: +5 points

Revised points calculation: 6x1+5 + 2x3= 17 + 30(Previous) = 47 cumulative points

25 Mar 2018 (Page 5):

Result: 8, 10, 10, 3, 10, 10, 8, 3, 2, 3

Hits: 4-8: 2, crits: 9-10: 4, Hits + crits >6 or more carrots? Yes: +5 points

Revised points calculation: 2x1+5 + 4x3=19 + 47(previous)=66 cumulative points

26 Mar 2018 (Page 6):
(Special: I hit 9 carrots on this day. If there were any extra bonus points for hitting 9 carrots I have no idea and therefore not added to the calculation.)

Result: 10, 10, 4, 10, 1, 4, 7, 4, 10, 9

Hits: 4-8: 4, crits: 9-10: 5, Hits + crits >6 or more carrots? Yes: +5 points

Revised points calculation: 4x1+5 + 5x3=24 + 66(Previous) = 90 cumulative points

27 Mar 2018 (Page 6):

Result: 8, 5, 7, 3, 7, 1, 3, 7, 10, 6

Hits: 4-8: 6, crits: 9-10: 1, Hits + crits >6 or more carrots? Yes: +5 points

Revised points calculation: 6x1+5 + 1x3=14 + 90(previous)=104 cumulative points

28 Mar 2018 (Page 7)

Result: 4, 10, 8, 3, 6, 2, 8, 1, 3, 9

Hits: 4-8: 4 , crits: 9-10: 2, Hits + crits >6 or more carrots? Yes: +5 points

Revised points calculation: 4x1+5 +2x3=15 + 104(previous) = 119 cumulative points

Anyways, basicly if there were any extra bonus points for hitting 9 carrots on 26 March, I have no idea. But it looks like my points calculations results are different from Marc's again. sad
