Are you sure about that? TheCrownless Send a noteboard - 30/10/2012 12:03:43 PM
We don't have any information on how many wilders there are or their relative strength. It would explain why we've seen virtually no channelers in the very high power levels for a while until recently. Given the lack of education about channelling in Randland and the towers complete lack f recruitment it might just be that virtually all the wilders (and therefore the strongest channelers) aren't going to the tower.

That the 1000 Novices aren't a random sample of the population? - 29/10/2012 08:23:47 PM 609 Views
And why would it be biased towards those with lower strength? - 29/10/2012 09:11:25 PM 603 Views

Only if it was a random sampling. Which this is not. - 30/10/2012 01:58:34 PM 689 Views
That's exactly the point. I want you to explain why it wasn't random. - 30/10/2012 02:14:59 PM 617 Views
It wasn't random because it was a self-selected sample! - 30/10/2012 02:43:03 PM 635 Views
