If one SD is 83, as you indicate, that would mean that all channelers fall well within 1 SD of the Mean.

That is not possible in a Normal Distribution.

It is very much possible with a normal distribution. I explained this in a previous response to you, which you ignored, as is typical.

Hmmm... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 02:08:40 AM 1016 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 974 Views
Nope... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:13:13 PM 1025 Views
I believe she is being over dramatic darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 03:26:24 PM 922 Views
Keep believing that... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:30:14 PM 1050 Views
*shrugs* darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 03:49:10 PM 1001 Views
Tired and forkroot are the same now? fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 03:55:22 PM 908 Views
No it's the literary device darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:04:28 PM 1029 Views
This is getting ridiculous... fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 04:43:13 PM 907 Views
You are missing my point completely darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:50:46 PM 870 Views
Impossible. Daigian is exactly 0.32SD below the mean Shannow - 19/11/2012 11:06:04 AM 973 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 1029 Views
That's the whole point. Thanks for finally seeing it. Shannow - 19/11/2012 09:43:27 PM 991 Views
keep believing that ... but you making up numbers isn't really relevant *NM* darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 04:29:44 AM 653 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 954 Views
Go read Fionwe's post about it *NM* darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 02:33:19 PM 668 Views
Is that before or after she started juicing? Praziquantel - 15/11/2012 11:04:14 PM 967 Views
Wouldn't it be 1 in 105 million? Lanfear - 21/11/2012 04:56:19 PM 819 Views
Are you sure that it is a normal distribution? Dreadlord - 16/11/2012 04:21:02 PM 1043 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 943 Views
I don't really agree Sidious - 18/11/2012 08:40:53 PM 885 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 959 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 930 Views
probably ... Lanfear/Cyndane is clearly remarkably skilled darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 02:35:09 PM 970 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 988 Views
You have proven nothing, except that you have an opinion *NM* darius_sedai - 18/11/2012 02:21:35 AM 636 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 833 Views
Only because you've assigned numeric values. That you created. darius_sedai - 18/11/2012 02:40:51 PM 957 Views
It doesn't matter what figure you use... Shannow - 18/11/2012 03:01:56 PM 835 Views
What if Daigian is one third Lanfear's strength? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2012 04:37:58 PM 978 Views
We have a limit for Daigian's strength, as you well know. Shannow - 18/11/2012 05:41:49 PM 931 Views
Are you kidding me? fionwe1987 - 18/11/2012 09:07:38 PM 1090 Views
Sure you can darius_sedai - 18/11/2012 10:09:31 PM 990 Views
Re: Sure you can DomA - 18/11/2012 10:54:50 PM 939 Views
You're right, though its 37.5% fionwe1987 - 19/11/2012 12:21:29 AM 905 Views
Oops, typo! darius_sedai - 19/11/2012 02:54:25 AM 975 Views
Again, not possible, due to Daigian being just 0.3SD below the Mean Shannow - 19/11/2012 08:37:01 AM 926 Views

Exactly *NM* Sidious - 20/11/2012 04:55:28 PM 869 Views
BEcause Cadsuane is close on the heels of Egwene? fionwe1987 - 20/11/2012 05:10:50 PM 815 Views
I'm not arguing that. I agree that Cadsuane is pretty close to Egwene darius_sedai - 20/11/2012 05:50:34 PM 920 Views
