Fayt Zelpher Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Is there an equation for how many post counts equal to a dot? 50-100-150-200-250-500-750-1000-1500-2000-2500, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstraLunaSol Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) Higher gaps than those for more dots. I think it was something like 50-150-300-500-750-1000 etc. The space gets higher every dot. Edited January 4, 2011 by Utatane Piko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fayt Zelpher Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Higher gaps than those. FFtF doesn't count toward that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narga_Rocks Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'm pretty sure the 11th dot is at 3000, which Fayt has as 2000 (since it's the 10th additional dot. I think you start at 1 dot). I think I was told that the 12th dot is 6000, though I might be wrong on both of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was something like 50-150-300-500-750-1000 etc. The space gets higher every dot. My dots are a contradiction to that pattern. someone told me recently that I had like, 315 posts, and I have 5 dots. I'm pretty sure the 11th dot is at 3000, which Fayt has as 2000 (since it's the 10th additional dot. I think you start at 1 dot). I think I was told that the 12th dot is 6000, though I might be wrong on both of those. I think Fayt is right... Astra has 1750ish posts, and he has 10 dots. Unless I'm understanding you wrong.

[/size][/color] I think Fayt is right... Astra has 1750ish posts, and he has 10 dots. Unless I'm understanding you wrong. I never said he was wrong for 10. I never made a statement about 10, though I'd guess you need 1500. I suggested (though I could be wrong) that you need 3000 to get 11 dots (10th additional dot at 3000, 1 + 10 = 11). And 6000 for 12. If Astra has 10 dots at 1750, that's not evidence against my idea (though it doesn't really help to prove mine either, so need more dots/post#s to look at if I cared enough to figure it out).

Like I said, it was possible I was understanding you wrong. why can't you just say 11 dots instead of the tenth additional. ;-; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnd Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 50-100-150-200-250-500-750-1000-1500-2000-2500, I think. In the screenshot I posted, Srs had 11 squares and 2.2k posts. Meanwhile, Royals had 12 squares and, iirc, 3.5k+ posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narga_Rocks Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Well, 2000 seems good enough for 11. 255 is good enough for 5. 378 is not good enough for 6. 1771 is good enough for 10. 3535 is good enough for 12. so probably 250 for 5 1500? for 10 2000 for 11 3500 for 12 (unless I can find someone with 3000 posts to see how many pips) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikethfc Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) Cos we all just want to have royal stars and live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars the girls come easy and the drugs come cheap and we'll stay skinny cos we just wont eat.

Aleph Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Hey hey, I wanna be a bad singer. This is how FEU does it Note the complete lack of a formula requirement - it is entirely discrete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 This reminds me, I changed the pip formula a few times over the years, mainly to account for the people with crazy amounts of postcount (3000+). So if you see any inconsistencies, don't be surprised... Also, and this doesn't really matter, but there was a mirror set of numbers for negative postcount as well. So +/- 2000 got you X pips.

riariadne Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 From what I remember, it was, at least for the first version we had: 1) 0 2) 25 3) 50 4) 100 5) 250 6) 500 7) 750 8) 1000 9) 1250 10) 1500 11) 2000 12) 3000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riariadne Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I think there were only those four. Well, Serene was one too before he got banned, and Hika may have been one? Besides them, don't think there were any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Red Fox and CGV were probably Royals too. I was just a Heron, and it took me quite some time to reach it, because I didn't spam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
