Its not even a dead horse any more, more like dried glue.
I have three questions for the original poster, two of which have nothing to do with slicing.
Do you think JFK was killed by just Lee Harvey Oswald, or a conspiracy in which he took part in/was the patsy/fallguy?
Which makes you feel safer at night, that it took a vast, potentially multi-governmental conspiracy to kill the leader of one of the nation's superpowers; or that a single man, acting alone was capable?
Now, after that, which makes you feel better? A slicing scheme that is as random as computers will allow, or that there's a complicated and intricate number generation system, which eventually repeats the same set of numbers, continuously?

>Remember these are the guys that swear up and down that tusken rifles were never at no time kinetic.
>Anyone saying there were is wrong. Yeah and I used tusken rifles to hunt klikniks in week two for no reason whatsoever.
Thank you, I knew I wasn't crazy.
They sure were kinetic.

levyn; "all things random or not have a grain of predictability."
What in the world does "a grain of predictability" mean pray tell? I have studied some probablility and statistics and quite a bit of physics and I've never heard that phrase before.
Anyway this whole argument could be done away with if SOE would just let us smuggle and get rid of the stupid filler skills they threw at us...like slicing.

Riddle me this naysayers. If the sliceing were a random number generator why are there some sliceing numbers more prevelant then others. In other words why are you ten times more likely to get a 23 then a 35. After all if the system were is a random number generator. Then shouldnt the coveted 35 happen more often then it does. Would like to point out that the pattern I have posted does completely explain this.
11 2 3 5 8 1 3 4 7 1 1
Notice how many times the formula alignes with 1 as compared to eight. Add in the final five point range and you see exactly why it is so hard to hit a 35.
I suppose I am going to have to detail all the numbers in a couple days. Maybe not slice a thousand but a hundred should do.

Obviously this is getting nowhere fast. I'm just going to take the easy way out.
GreenMarine told me it was random while I was talking to him in person and that the numbers were randomly generated. Apparently they didn't have the time to implement anything more complex.

Noooo! But I wanted to see the 1000 CDEF slices compared to the mystical gnostic sequence! We might be on to the answer to life, the universe, and everything!

What the heck is a fibro-hitachi or whatever that is?
Its human nature to find patterns..to find meaning in life. Sometimes though...a slice is just a slice.

I'm not sure exactly what fibnachi sequences are, but I remember in art school, this guy who claimed they could be applied to painting and made these really boring paintings that were alleged asthetically perfect (they sucked ass, BTW).

Dancing around burned meat while making 25 naked twileks women jump from theed's waterfall to a rancors mouth below results in 45% effectivness/damage slice
Works for one slice only
To be able to do it again : you have to free the twileks by taking them out the rancor's stomach using the meat your were dancing around
Use the meat as a weapon... Meat is certified as a weapon for master chefs.
Making 25 CH make nunas (5 each CH, so 125 nunas) run in coronet around the starport results in 45% encumbrance/speed slice
Works for one slice only
To be able to do it again : make all nunas that were running around the starport kill a nighsister elder
