Well... vandevere Send a noteboard - 15/11/2012 07:02:45 PM
I figured she was plenty deviant, but didn't realize you could use math to parse out just how deviant she was... :P
If the human brain were so simple we could understand it, we would be so simple we couldn't understand it.

How many standard deviations is Lanfear Lanfear - 15/11/2012 06:04:39 PM 2160 Views
Well... vandevere - 15/11/2012 07:02:45 PM 1189 Views
Hmm... Sidious - 15/11/2012 07:25:34 PM 1307 Views

Hmmm... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 02:08:40 AM 1095 Views
Perhaps, but Egwene is also being a bit dramatic in the scene as she managed darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:28:57 AM 1037 Views
Nope... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:13:13 PM 1103 Views
I believe she is being over dramatic darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 03:26:24 PM 990 Views
Keep believing that... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:30:14 PM 1127 Views
*shrugs* darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 03:49:10 PM 1079 Views
Tired and forkroot are the same now? fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:55:22 PM 979 Views
No it's the literary device darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:04:28 PM 1100 Views
This is getting ridiculous... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 04:43:13 PM 981 Views
You are missing my point completely darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:50:46 PM 949 Views
Impossible. Daigian is exactly 0.32SD below the mean Shannow - 19/11/2012 11:06:04 AM 1052 Views
You keep saying that, but it is either a linear or a non-linear distribution darius_sedai - 19/11/2012 09:09:32 PM 1096 Views
That's the whole point. Thanks for finally seeing it. Shannow - 19/11/2012 09:43:27 PM 1064 Views
keep believing that ... but you making up numbers isn't really relevant *NM* darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:29:44 AM 685 Views
Please show me a number that is made up. The 0.32SD for Daigian is a rule of statistics. Shannow - 20/11/2012 07:15:48 AM 1034 Views
Go read Fionwe's post about it *NM* darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 02:33:19 PM 687 Views
Is that before or after she started juicing? Praziquantel - 15/11/2012 11:04:14 PM 1052 Views
Wouldn't it be 1 in 105 million? Lanfear - 21/11/2012 04:56:19 PM 906 Views
Are you sure that it is a normal distribution? Dreadlord - 16/11/2012 04:21:02 PM 1116 Views
Ugh. I hate power level discussions. For real world applications, it should be kind of meaningless beetnemesis - 16/11/2012 10:28:49 PM 1009 Views
I don't really agree Sidious - 18/11/2012 08:40:53 PM 969 Views
Perhaps, but we've seen that a MUCH weaker Channeler can win in a duel darius_sedai - 19/11/2012 09:13:48 PM 1032 Views
Re: Perhaps, but we've seen that a MUCH weaker Channeler can win in a duel Sidious - 20/11/2012 08:10:01 AM 1001 Views
probably ... Lanfear/Cyndane is clearly remarkably skilled darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 02:35:09 PM 1046 Views
Since I've proven that it's not a normal distribution in units of absolute strength, SDs don't apply Shannow - 17/11/2012 07:48:21 PM 1053 Views
You have proven nothing, except that you have an opinion *NM* darius_sedai - 18/11/2012 02:21:35 AM 664 Views
You simply don't get it. It is mathematically a fact. There is no opinion involved. Shannow - 18/11/2012 02:19:40 PM 909 Views
Only because you've assigned numeric values. That you created. darius_sedai - 18/11/2012 02:40:51 PM 1027 Views
It doesn't matter what figure you use... Shannow - 18/11/2012 03:01:56 PM 904 Views
What if Daigian is one third Lanfear's strength? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2012 04:37:58 PM 1051 Views
We have a limit for Daigian's strength, as you well know. Shannow - 18/11/2012 05:41:49 PM 1017 Views
Are you kidding me? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2012 09:07:38 PM 1165 Views
Sure you can darius_sedai - 18/11/2012 10:09:31 PM 1059 Views
Re: Sure you can DomA - 18/11/2012 10:54:50 PM 1007 Views
You're right, though its 37.5% fionwe1987 - 19/11/2012 12:21:29 AM 975 Views
Oops, typo! darius_sedai - 19/11/2012 02:54:25 AM 1046 Views
Again, not possible, due to Daigian being just 0.3SD below the Mean Shannow - 19/11/2012 08:37:01 AM 1004 Views
Egwene is definitely not 2x Amys... fionwe1987 - 19/11/2012 04:05:12 PM 906 Views
Re: Egwene is definitely not 2x Amys... Sidious - 19/11/2012 05:55:02 PM 868 Views
Egwene is about as strong as Melaine and Amys combined darius_sedai - 19/11/2012 09:19:50 PM 986 Views

No! fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:15:16 PM 970 Views
I'm not going to go re-read the books to you on this darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 03:39:46 PM 997 Views
You need to read it for yourself, since you're completely confused. fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:54:26 PM 963 Views
Not going to argue this with you. darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:09:44 PM 909 Views
Your own example disproved your point... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 04:39:25 PM 1032 Views
let's see, she's both asleep and would need hours to regain her strength darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:43:17 PM 928 Views
Enough! fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 05:04:06 PM 1003 Views
LOL ... whatever. You go on believing that ... no one else sees it this way. *NM* darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 05:20:52 PM 649 Views
What a brilliant argument! fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 05:25:18 PM 1018 Views
this is why I refuse to continue this debate darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 05:31:11 PM 959 Views

Excuse me? fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 05:28:48 PM 1051 Views
see we can agree on the relative strength of Egwene v. Forsaken darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 05:35:07 PM 1002 Views

None of this is backed by any evidence... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:24:12 PM 936 Views
who said Cadsuane was 1.5x Moiraine or more? darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:03:13 PM 940 Views
Nope... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 04:41:35 PM 965 Views
wrong darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:48:50 PM 909 Views
My bad. Mized up 1/3 and 2/3. fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 05:05:05 PM 1006 Views
gotcha *NM* darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 05:46:21 PM 620 Views
Better evidence? LOL! fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:18:55 PM 989 Views
Huh? How did you come to that conclusion? darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:40:56 PM 968 Views
Exactly *NM* Sidious - 20/11/2012 04:55:28 PM 949 Views
BEcause Cadsuane is close on the heels of Egwene? fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 05:10:50 PM 885 Views
I'm not arguing that. I agree that Cadsuane is pretty close to Egwene darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 05:50:34 PM 988 Views
Re: Better evidence? LOL! Sidious - 20/11/2012 05:00:47 PM 902 Views
Interesting, but let's go with your figures... Shannow - 19/11/2012 06:54:54 AM 1035 Views
Indeed Sidious - 19/11/2012 08:16:44 AM 1093 Views
Rand is sort of a special case darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:25:02 AM 912 Views
Regarding Mesaana... Sidious - 20/11/2012 08:42:56 AM 985 Views
You continue to mix two things darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 03:24:44 PM 910 Views
No Sidious - 20/11/2012 04:54:19 PM 1137 Views

Yes she did Darius! Sidious - 20/11/2012 05:27:36 PM 928 Views
Yet there is no duel darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 06:01:17 PM 912 Views
Explain the .3xSD thing to me... fionwe1987 - 19/11/2012 04:58:57 PM 1147 Views
Probably, but the AS have no idea what 37.5% means darius_sedai - 19/11/2012 02:59:26 AM 926 Views
It's irrelevant DomA - 19/11/2012 03:46:42 AM 1007 Views
Agreed. Daigian is the marker of the absolute bottom of Aes Sedai strength. Shannow - 19/11/2012 06:55:41 AM 959 Views
Daigian Sidious - 19/11/2012 08:12:19 AM 993 Views
It is a direct marker due to RJ's quote Shannow - 19/11/2012 08:50:26 AM 1017 Views
