[s-b] [auto] Triller submits p332 |
Triller has submitted a new Motion, p332. --------------------------------- Motion 332/0: Shuffling Ordered List Defined A Proposal by Triller Last modified on nweek 103, nday 8 [[ SOLD ]] [[ I'm going to use this methodology for randomly ordering a list of items in a forthcoming Prop to mete ont Superpowers. It seems worthy of standing alone as a method. ]] Create a new Rule in Section 9 of the Ruleset: {{ == Shuffling == If an Effect of an Object calls for 'Shuffling' a List of Game Objects (such as Superpowers), then the following method shall be used to accomplish this. A Minister responsible for the Objects specified will perform the following: If not already numbered, the Specified List will be numbered sequentially from 1 to X, where X is the number of Objects in the List. X number of 1DX rolls are obtained from the approved SORC. The first Item in the list is swapped with the Mth item, where M is the first Die roll result. The second Item in the list is swapped with the Nth item, where N is the second Die roll result. Continue in this fashion until the Xth item in the list is swapped with the Pth item in the list, where P is the Xth Die roll result. [[ Note that it is quite possible that one or more items in list may not be reordered at all. ]] The list is then sorted numerically. If required by a rule, the resulting List will be posted to the appropriate Public Fora. [[ I've almost got a handy Excel spreadsheet completed with macros to accomplish the above. I will be happy to make it readily available to anyone that requests it, once it is tried and tests OK. ]] }} Triller --------------------------------- This Message was sent automatically by the Wiki.
