You pulled numbers out of your ass. Your odds have no basis in reality.

The new reality that Trainquish cheats by running an optimized script means they would win every race. That is not based in reality.

My estimate of 4 out 5 for non scripted races is much closer to reality and probably over compensates Trainquish.

This is gibberish.

4 out of 5 racers recommend Nutsax in your mouth!

See, I can make shit up, too.

So you think 1 out of 20 is a better estimate, when Trainquish is observed not trying to win?

Recent history would confirm this to be accurate, yes. You have to consider that most established Riot racers are in Vanquish now leaving very few viable runners.

I mean if you’re going to dig up ancient history…

TMO gave up some garbage, BDA led open raids.

Yep, the TMO links weren't meant to be a how-to in terms of diplomacy, only to highlight that they at least made an attempt to repair their faction with the rest of the server. That effort did seem to be more about damage control than appreciation for the larger community. Bread crumbs and circuses...which missed the point because players weren't 100% after the loot, but a chance to take a stab at that tier of gameplay together, either for the first time or once again after a decade's absence.

I likely benefited from some of those open BDA raids actually, but only really remember the TMO garbagenaire that wiped guilds again and again outside of KC, finally being slain after the fourth, fifth attempt that day? Thereabouts. Ruffel/AG regularly left targets up for other guilds with the idea being that doing so was better for the community and those targets weren't much of a challenge anymore so only smaller, less experienced guilds would be able to min/max the fun of the encounter, loot included. But even for players/guilds where that idea is barely an afterthought, it's still in their best interest to not con threateningly to the other guilds and unguildeds.

Ignoring all other BiS and just going by the number of players I've known who went months, years without koi/dagarn pants or aow leggings, I feel like Norrath should have seen the formation of its own <Sans Culottes> by now.

I know of one that flipped, Riot has dozens of exceptionally skilled players, unfortunately none are good enough to beat a script. Many don't want to race in vain.

What happened on the 21st race, did Trainquish loose thier skill or just give up?

Many know they don't stand a chance against racers like Furoar or Laughingor.

It can't rain all the time.

This thread has taken a turn. There's a couple of you who seem like you would not be very fun guys to be guilded with.
