Hi,
This is what I have. Several folks (Ben being the
most persistent) have argued that the endpoints are
actually off by one (ie, 27-40%, not 39%).
I'd agree with Ben, and a check back at past PDF's confirms it. There is
no difference between 59% and 60% BUT 39% is better than 40%, putting
you into the 0 to +2 range.
Colin.
Just to clarify:
60% is the "top" of the "zero drift bracket."
40% is the "bottom" of the "zero drift bracket."
Hence, 39% is the "top" of the "+1 drift bracket."
I never disagreed w/ Joseph on 39% vs. 40% for the top of "+1 drift bracket"
(and, by inference, the bottom of the "zero drift bracket"). Our only point
of contention was the top of the "zero drift bracket."
Note to all: By "drift" I mean _average_ drift. With "zero drift," each
pc, individually (there may be some correlation, but let's not get into that
just now ... :), will see its loyalty move either +1, -1, or stay the same,
each turn. Thus, "on average" (or, "in the long term" if you prefer ...)
each pc will maintain its current loyalty. Similarly, "+1 drift" may see a
static loyalty, an increase of 1 point, or an increase of 2 points - 1 point
"on average."
Also, note that this is only _one_ factor that influences a given pcs loyalty
on a given turn.
Hope that clarifies for everyone (I know, most of you know this ... figured
it wouldn't hurt any newbies to have it spelled out).
