Talk:Doppelshifter

My reference edit isn't showing up on the page...What's up with that?--Teenr0cker 03:21, 1 Oct 2005 (MDT)

• I've been having similar problems too with new pages today, you can force a refresh of the cached page using http://thekolwiki.net/w/index.php?title=Doppelshifter&action=purge . The changes are saving, the cached page just isn't being updated for some odd reason. I wonder if any wiki setting were changed todday? --JRSiebz 03:49, 1 Oct 2005 (MDT)

• Hmm it's really odd, even after I purge the old cached page and it takes me to the correct updated page, if I go somewhere else and come back, It'll show the outdated version again. That's not supposed to happen, purge should force the wiki to recreate a new cahed page. --JRSiebz 03:51, 1 Oct 2005 (MDT)

From the 2005-10-03 Jick & Skully Show:

Jick: How does the Doppleshifter work in the Cake Shaped Arena, the doppleshift is just good at everything. Which makes it a little harder to use, but he's good at everything.

...

Jick: Is the doppleshifter named after the Pokemon ditto? No, I know nothing about ditto. I actually bought one for GBA, to learn about it and not emulate it, but it's the most boring game.

• Since the pokemon reference was proven to be incorrect, why is it still on the main page? Shouldn't it be gone by now? --J12601 13:47, 20 October 2006 (CDT)

Similarity to forum image

Technically, the similarity to the KoL forum sticky image has absolutely nothing to do with KoL, since said image comes directly from the SubSilver theme included with all phpBB 2.x installations. --Quietust 13:58, 1 August 2006 (CDT)

• I agree, it is a weak reference. I say one more vote before removal of reference and deletion of image.--Dehstil (t|c) 20:33, 1 August 2006 (CDT)
• Seconded. Nothing uniquely KoL-ish about it. Same way the meat blob in the Haunted Pantry could be called a reference to a sticky. --Alpaca (^T/_C) 21:14, 1 August 2006 (CDT)

Extra Adventures

also noted while i am messing around with my shifter he will not change into these familars

54.  Comma Chameleon
40.  Doppelshifter
37.  Spooky Gravy Fairy
61.  Ninja Snowflake 

(new familars appear to be appearing now, but the above are still missing/no comferm.)

I have sent in feed back. and i will edit the artical soon to reflect that info. i am up to 24 times for the rabbit and no damned extra advs --LoA 00:56, 20 December 2006 (CST)

i think i willl wait until this whole run is over its only one more level. (new familars being added so i will do an other complete run of data collecting before i switch.)

here is a data set off of what i am seeing from my familar. the way i have familars divided is just for statistical fun later. This data is far more complete then what i was recording earlier, being as i was only watching the wild hare closely before now. it will be updated daily for a run.

I was just testing some stuff with my Wild Hare and Doppelshifter. I did 14 adventures with the Hare and then some with the Doppelshifter, and the next time the Doppelshifter turned into the Wild Hare I got this here. I'm going to edit the page saying that the Doppelshifter can give extra adventures as the Wild Hare. --Tcjellis 06:00, 8 January 2007 (CST)

crazy lucky so and so, well if thats the case then it appears to do all actions of all familars. should we change the page to it says "fully functions as all familars" or should we leave it as is, ideas? --LoA 13:36, 10 January 2007 (CST)

Histogram

histogram each familiar with the corresponding number of appearances gets plotted as a xx in that column. (example the scary death orb has appeared twice so far, there for its the xx in the 02 column)

                        xx

# of times a familar has appeared so far  (1/7/7) 

Mean = 6.31 Median = 6 Mode = 6

The histogram appears a little top heavy. that may have more to do with the familiars getting added on Jan 3rd. as my data set keeps growing it should balance out the differences in start date. I might do this agian in a few days just to see if it balances out any.

# of times a familar has appeared so far  (1/10/7)

Mean = 9.72 Median = 9 Mode = 9

it looks a little less pretty then last time but it appears to be close to a mean distribution of familar selection. --LoA 23:06, 10 January 2007 (CST)
