"two rewards for approximately 1/2 of his tokens"[edit]
I'm not sure about the phrase "a player will gain two rewards for approximately 1/2 of his tokens". I work out that for every Lunar Token you spend you are likely to receive 1/2 a Lunar Fortune and 1/2 a Sugary Blue Drink....
Cost: 1 Lunar Token
1/3 Win - 1 Lunar Fortune, 1 Sugary Blue Drink
1/3 Draw - 1 Lunar Token
1/3 Lose - Nothing
Average Net Cost = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 Lunar Token
Average winnings = 1/3 Lunar Fortune, 1/3 Sugary Blue Drink
2/3 Lunar Tokens - 1/3 Lunar Fortune, 1/3 Sugary Blue Drink
x 3/2 =
1 Lunar Token - 1/2 Lunar Fortune, 1/2 Sugary Blue Drink
So surely it should say "a player will gain 2 rewards (i.e. 1 Lunar Fortune and 1 Sugary Blue Drink) for approximately 2 of his tokens"? --Combatter 09:31, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
- But as 1 Fortune = 3 Tokens, the main article is correct. Your math is somehow stating that 1 apple = 1 banana. 87.66.35.72 23:38, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
- Eh? --Combatter 00:50, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
- Math was fine. Conclusion was also fine, but who cares about the sugary blue drinks ^^
Game Lunar token spent Outcome Lunar token rewarded Lunar fortune rewarded (also number of drinks) 1 1 Win (33% chance) 0 1 2 1 Lose (33% chance) 0 0 3 1 Draw (33% chance) 1 0 ...
- Tokens spent over 3 games: 3
- Tokens given back over 3 games: 1
- Ultimate tokens spent over 3 games: (3-1) = 2
- Lunar fortunes won over 3 games: 1
- Cost in lunar tokens of 1 lunar fortune: 2/1 = 2
