Okay, it seems that my thread at http://www.math.miami.edu/~jam/azure/forum/tuff/Forum1/HTML/000236.html has gone ignored for too long, I have made several attempts to get my ideas iplemented, but my suggestions have fallen on deaf ears. Excuse me if I'm wrong, but it seems that you tend to give more attention to threads posted by more respected members, and less to those who are new. All that I want is for you to take notice, because I know it's important.

That's true.
If the info comes from a respected source, then it is looked at more closely, because it will require less work to get it ready for the site. If it comes from someone with an unreasonably long sig whose research habits we are not familiar with, it is put on the back burner when there's a lot of work to be done.
We don't put up anything that isn't tested by a trusted member of the team, and everything cannot be done at once.
If we put up everything that people posted without testing it, we'd have bad data for critical hit rates, freeze rates, and a number of other things.

Well, I looked at that post when it first was posted. It looked complete, so the only the only thing I responded to was Porcupine's confusion about sleep duration. I didn't do any further testing or anything, but it rang true with what I was pretty sure of: the distribution on those moves stinx.
But there is a lot of crap for Mr. K to do on the site, and I can see how he wouldn't have gotten around to it.
We aren't being elitist, we're just plain lazy
