Like I say I've never really been into the math but Astuce makes a good post here and there's some further discussion in that thread on different ways bards on the server twist 4 songs.

I'm calling theorycrafting on this stuff. I don't see it in experience. It's telling there was no discussion about this on live back in the day - and those guys then were *serious* min/maxers. Bards were parsed to within an inch of existence.

That quote is taken out of context of that article to be fair. In it he's talking about the power of bards relative to increasing level was crap compared to other classes and complaining about it. He mentions the 3 song twist as being standard while giving an example relating to this, which is probably just arbitrary. I don't see any discussion about the relative benefits of twisting 3 songs vs 4 songs.

Haha I knew someone was going to say this. You miss the point - it's proof that 3 songs was understood as the minimum twist. The context is not relevant, only the thinking behind what is being said.
As I said though, I know you get it, and the choice to twist more than 3 is situational. The important point is that songs will drop, and that should be understood. The thing I'm trying to mitigate here is the silliness that goes on when people start expecting Bards to twist 4 songs, and "five if you're really good HYUK!"
