Its random... higher quality have a chance of tuning better... but its random..

I understand thinking it's random. But random is the wrong word to use.
You say that the higher the crystal is the higher the chances that it will tune perfect. That means that there are numbers taken into factor when tuning, which means that it is not random.
My question was have these numbers ever been stated anywhere?

Its completely random =( i tuned a crystal before the server crashed once. It tuned to a -8 24/24. WHen the server came back up it was untuned. I had to retune it and it was a -7 45/45.

I heard FS Luck has an effect on tuning. Anyone that has luck...do your tunes turn out well?

Just because it hasn't been stated anywhere doesn't mean it is random.
The definition of random states...
being or relating to a set or to an element of a set each of whose elements has equal probability of occurrence
Do you understand your mistake now? Sorry to argue semantics but it really isn't random.

Its not random because the outcome hasa range. I think that it is not random even within that range. There is a low chance of the tune turning out poor and a low chance of the tune turning out good. Mostly it will be average but the average is moved up and down dependingon how good the crystal is.
Luck,skill and qulaity of kits should play their part but alas it seems this is not the case at this time.

I don't think it's correct to say there is a "range", but rather the quality of the crystal effects the "weighted randomness"of the tune. Quite frankly if you scan enough of the horror stories and even my own tunes I have hit pretty damn low with premiums. More often than not they tune decent, where as a quality more often that not does not tune decent, but as far as hard numbers on tunes go they seem to all occupy the same range, just a matter of which side of that range they fall on more likely is what quality seems to determine.
I too have the luck line, and it doesn't seem to do me any good.
