How many contests has Saerino entered vs MV? It looks like MV entered two full festival cycles, or 22 contests. I don't remember Saerino being a regular contestant, but the fact they're a 2015 players makes sense why they have so many wins.
We should probably be calculating this based on (number of wins)/(number of contests entered). I'm actually pretty interested to see what that looks like
MV: 14 wins in 22 submissions (64% win rate) across 22 festivals
Saerino: 30 wins in 39 submissions (78% winrate) across 79 festivals (started October the first year they started entering)
MV is more consistently entering and winning in a shorter period of time than Saerino, Saerino has won 14% more of the time than MV but entered FAR, FAR less in a longer period of time.
(I'm mildly impressed though, bc percentages are an evil I can't process. Also amused that an anon comm is doing math about pixel dragons and pixel dragon accessories.)
thanks to FR I learned so much about spreadsheets that I carried the knowledge into my job and streamlined so many projects because of it. Got promoted because of it too!

(Anonymous) 2023-06-28 04:40 am (UTC)(link)in all honesty, I like math, and I kinda have to for the skills I utilize, BUT percentages aren't too hard!
when I was younger, I learned to put it into the context of "x times out of y", then divide x by y.
so for example, "9 times out of 10" becomes 9 รท 10 which is .90 or 90% of the time.
