I feel like I was too harsh on Bcbrown. I sincerely apologize for that.

I am wary of his behavior due to past interactions, but I will give him the benefit of the doubt. Everyone deserves second chances.

His advise on the scientific method is sound. I appreciate the suggestion.

I was just genuinely confused as to why he gave the advise.

I think I got hung up on the "urge you to start" part of his comment:
I appreciate and accept the sincere apology. If you were thrown off and confused by what I said, you could have pointed to those quotes and asked me for clarification. Hopefully my explanation helped. Here's a link with further (academic) discussion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preregistration_(science). Again, I'm not saying you should follow all those formalisms, just that spending a minute to articulate a precise prediction helps with experiment design and helps convince people like me if the experiment matches the prediction.

The next test I am going to do is the level 60 AC softcap for Shamans. This is to determine if any of the EQEMU numbers are accurate. If they are, there is a stronger chance the others may be correct too.
Excellent experiment design! I look forward to seeing the results.
