Dice analyzer question.

I hope this hasn't already been answered.

If you have more than one account on your computer. (Because your wife plays, not multis. :wink:

) Does the dice analyzer compile statistics from both of your accounts, effectively treating them as one account? It seems to be doing that to me. I looked at her dice stats and they seem to be the exact same as mine.

Thanks for any info, help etc.

Since you're both using firefox, then it's most likely just using a cookie for the site, regardless of who visits.

The only way around this would be for each of you to have a separate user accounts with Firefox, so the cookies for each of you remain separate.

Ok that confirms what I suspected, thanks!

I love all the add-ons but lets face it that one wasn't really helpful to game strategy, more like a cool novelty. It doesn't really matter how my dice rolled over the last 100 rolls because it doesn't change the odds of my current dice rolls. Cool and interesting to look at but not crucial to game play. Not to slam the add-on I don't know how to make them.

you're right. The dice analyzer is useless. Looks the part though.

Dice Analyzer is very useful.

No, it cannot influence your game, but that's obviously not its purpose (unless you're just another conspiracy theorist).

The Analyzer can be used to pay attention to not only long term trends, but short term as well.

This has helped me make the conclusion that the dice are far too streaky, but that they also do normalize in the long run. Only to go streaky again.

No matter what you you rolled in the past, your odds on current rolls are still the same. You past rolls tell you nothing about your future rolls. (Right?) (But I still think it's cool.)
