- Here is blcd/Blade/Will's spreadsheet that show the new The Chest strategy for mapping:

- this confirms adam's propaganda as true (which was to always go left and right instead of down on the chest).
- here's my post-hoc rationalization of why it is true:
- - we know that each floor is a grid of 13x13
- - we know that on the grid, the starting room is always on point (7, 7)
- - thus, from the starting room, the boss must be:
- 1) above
- 2) above-right
- 3) right
- 4) below-right
- 5) below
- 6) below-left
- 7) left
- 8) above-left
- - the boss being exactly in the 4 cardinal directions is extremely unlikely, so lets remove them for simplicity. so now remaining directions are:
- 1) above-right
- 2) below-right
- 3) below-left
- 4) above-left
- - blcd/blade/will confirms that from his testing, the boss is equally likely to be in any of these 4 directions.
- - now, we can calculate door percentages for each of these possibilities (assuming the starting room has 3 doors):
- 1) above-right - the exit door is probably right (since top is impossible)
- 2) below-right - the exit door is 50/50 right or down
- 6) below-left - the exit door is 50/50 left or down
- 8) above-left - the exit door is probably left (since top is impossible)
- - we can add up the probabilities:
- 1) left: 0.5 + 1 = 1.5
- 2) right: 1 + 0.5 = 1.5
- 3) down: 0.5 + 0.5 = 1
- - so this is a hypothesis of why down is less likely. these proportions don't exactly match what is being generated experimentally, but they could explain the discrepancy.
