Power spin Statistics

Day 4,971, 23:54 Published in India India by Visor Of Blades

As promised, here is my probability table from the Power Spin that Plato has been giving us. The total data is for 1084 spins, of which I got about 700 from various people from across the eWorld, I must duly thank them for it.

Most notable of them were:
Mann551
Fyreous
Akshit1998
among a long list of many others.

Without further ado, let me post the table and then explain it a bit, because some parts I expect to be not straightforward :



As the I should explain the second most noteworthy feature first: Where the heck is the info on free spins? I have decided to omit that entirely, and let me explain why.

Let's say, I want to spin until I make a spin that costs 1000 cc. Now, let's say that in my 1000 cc spin, I get a free spin. Do I stop at that? No, I'll obviously make that spin for free. Let's say I got a small bomb from it. Now, the question is - What did I get from the 1000 cc spin? Is it the free spin, or is it the small bomb? Considering that under no circumstances will I not ever do the free spin, it is safe to say that I got the small bomb from it.

Next up: Why does the table look so dirty? That's because I used a spreadsheet, which will calculate the value for (outcome/total) as accurately as it can. To make it readable, you can refer to the approximate probability tally in the 5th column. For example, 3x stingers were obtained on 216 out of the total 1084 attempts, giving it an absolute chance of 0.19926..., which corresponds to 19.926...%, which I have approximated to 20% in the final column.

As a note, the last column is an approximation, so the total will not be 100%.

Now, coming to the part that you would have looked for right off that bat: The chances of scoring a Jackpot and the PP boosters. The unsurprising part is that these are very unlikely, with you getting only one of each every roughly 30 attempts. What is perhaps more striking, is that the Jackpot is actually less likely. You may be thinking "well, it's only off by about 0.35%, is that really a lot? Well, look at it like this - there are 34 successful jackpot claims, and 30 pp booster claims. So sure, the difference overall is about one third of a percent, but you're really scoring jackpots at a 10% higher rate than a pp booster --> (34-30)/34 = 4/34 = 0.1176 = 11.76%. Now that surely is more striking as 'a lot'.


Well, that's it from me for now. I'll sign off here, hoping to be able to come out with better analysis of this that I plan to publish at around the start of the next spin, so that we can actually make use of that information.

Thanks for reading, and maybe you can subscribe to my newspaper so that you don't miss my next article (which is probably going to be the analysis).
