Re: Formulae of Victory
I can't believe nobody mentioned luck, yet. (Well, in the formula at least).

Re: Formulae of Victory
Hey, I never made a formula! Had I done so, luck would have been an exponential factor or something.

Luck has nothing to do with my success. Luck is only a factor when the other guys beat me.

Re: Formulae of Victory
Luck doesn't go exponential; only bad luck...

Re: Formulae of Victory
