Effects on Lucky Unlucky Titles
|
|
If you are playing Nine Rings you are probably working on your Lucky and Unlucky tiles. Assuming you are playing with only 250 tickets, you will only be able to play 23 (250 tickets / 10.56 average number of tickets lost per cycle) cycles (437 games). The table below shows you how this will affect your titles. This data suggests that by using a corner ring position you can progress both your lucky and unlucky titles faster than any other ring position.

Sample Data
|
|
Here are 10 samples I choose at random to conduct some calculations on. Each of these samples came from the same corner ring opposite from the MC. In the below chart, the Red squares are areas where the empirical evidence had a higher value then what you would expect from the statistical information. Green squares are areas where the statistical value was higher than the empirical value. The total variation is less than 3% and it can be assumed that with a larger sample size the 3% error would dissipate. Also of interest is that you can see how in each additional round of Nine Rings the percent of Grand Prize, Runners-Up, and Losses decrease. If we knew the order in which the winnings were allocated it may be possible to determine if there is a “sweet spot” to enter the game and exit rather then stay in full cycle. Sort of playing the stock market.
