Don't help him fix his derpiest calculator. It's not like he's going to give credit to testers and contributors.
I feel bad for Samoht. He wakes up every day just to post the same negative comments that aren't true. They won't change the post history, change reality, or discredit me. It is just pointless.

My DPS calculator can generate very similar results to a parse from Sept 2000. Remember that this parse from Sept 2000 was used in an attempt to claim my DPS calculator cannot produce results showing the DPS of other weapons around the same time as Twig.

No it can't, you're trying to artificially attack a higher AC target when that's not how the parses were done, and even while trying to attack something with higher AC you're still getting more hits for '26' and '27' than people in classic hitting lower AC targets.

P99 has never used the exact same numbers as what existed during classic, what do you not understand about that?

You were not playing back then. Stop trying to tell people who were playing back then what was happening. There's been other testimony linked as well. Low delay weapons were busted and that's why they completely changed Twig/Whip, instead of just making them not drop anymore.

My evidence disproves your claim. You can keep denying all you want. People can see the truth.

This web archive post was your own evidence. Thanks for providing it!

I played from 1999-2005. It is weird you just asserted this randomly without knowing.

It only makes sense because you have no idea what's going on.

People can look at my evidence. People can look at your posts without evidence. They can decide who is more credible.
Remind me what this has to do with threat of twig? You're just spamming offtopic nonsense. Why are you still posting here?

You can stop posting off-topic nonsense about me and my calculator at any time. There is no reason for you to do it. For threat on twig, I made a post on page 1:

https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...75&postcount=7

Your first post in this thread had nothing to do with Twig:

https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...6&postcount=32
Okay, but you're still spamming the thread with nonsense, why? You're not proving anything that wasn't already proven 25 years ago. Your DPS calculator is the only thing worse than your contribution to this thread. They nerfed twig because it didn't work with 56k modems! Jesus christ, man, get a grip. Move on and stop posting this bullshit.

Your evidence proves you're wrong. You are getting more hits in the higher range and less min hits. You only had 5% min hits before switching to a higher AC parse, and still only 11% in that instance. In Kunark era over 80% of hits were falling in the lower range of the scale, on a normal low AC target, and 15+% were min hits.

You discredit yourself. What the post history shows is that you've managed to derail another thread with your offtopic nonsense and personal attacks. You were SO WRONG about the twig and yet you couldn't help yourself but keep posting more and more and more BULLSHIT trying to prove yourself right by inventing straw men and moving the goal posts. It's what you do in every thread.

But since you continue to insist, I need to point out that you already still call it "my DPS calculator" even though other people have had to fix major issues for you.

So thanks for proving me right.

Go post in that thread. Keep your bullshit contained to one spot instead of spreading it all over.

Your only evidence is your DPS calculator. One that time and time again has been proven to be just as wrong as you are. It is not a valid source.

It sounds like Samoht has given up on claiming my DPS calculator doesn't work. It sounds like he wants to be a part of it now and get credit. Progress!

Despite the norm, not every response to every thread has to be annoying.

Answer the question and move on. It’s becoming obvious few people are attempting to solve problems and prefer to posture with other blowhards.

Is the MCT a good aggro weapon in 2025? No
Is it a good Monk dps weapon in 2025? lol, no

See? Pretty easy and not nuanced at all. Legacy weapon sucks.
Unlike the BFG. Start a thread about that one.

In normal conversations, one person says something another disagrees with, and then they communicate until one changes their opinion, based on what they learned from the other ... or until they both agree to disagree.

But to DSM, both those outcomes are an anathema. Once he starts one of his many forum fights, he will do everything he can to "win that fight" in his mind, no matter how incorrect his position is (including quite literally spamming the thread so that he always has the last word).

That means he NEVER listens to others or changes his opinion based on new information, and it also means he'll never settle for "we both agree to disagree" (because that would mean he didn't "win"). As a result, every thread where people have reasonable disagreements with DSM will always end this same way: DSM is almost robotic in how predictably he behaves.

(And of course, many posters here have cherished positions that they argue over; the difference with DSM, and the reason he regularly creates 100+ page threads when no one else does, is that he is uniquely extreme in this regard, even for this forum.)

I have already rebutted all of Loramin's lies in this exact thread lol. I will simply repost the link:

https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...4&postcount=78

Loramin is just spamming random threads with the same nonsense, because he cannot win a debate with facts and logic. He is mad that he could not supply evidence to support one of his postions, and I called him out on it. He's been on a crusade ever since.

Just to be clear, Loramin is a wiki admin actively breaking the forum rules by posting this.

I was hoping he would calm down after he put me on ignore. But as you can see he still cannot let go. I guess we will get more of the same spam from Loramin in the future.
