• Inventory Split Incoming

    MassiveCraft will be implementing an inventory split across game modes to improve fairness, balance, and player experience. Each game mode (Roleplay and Survival) will have its own dedicated inventory going forward. To help players prepare, we’ve opened a special storage system to safeguard important items during the transition. For full details, read the announcement here: Game Mode Inventory Split blog post.

    Your current inventories, backpacks, and ender chest are in the shared Medieval inventory. When the new Roleplay inventory is created and assigned to the roleplay world(s) you will lose access to your currently stored items.

    Important Dates

    • April 1: Trunk storage opens.
    • May 25: Final day to submit items for storage.
    • June 1: Inventories are officially split.

    Please make sure to submit any items you wish to preserve in the trunk storage or one of the roleplay worlds before the deadline. After the split, inventories will no longer carry over between game modes.

Ill be using easy numbers to work with as to make the working out easier. I do not know the answer if you do please share it with me.

You and two friends go out for a drink, the bill comes to $30. The waiter then checks the bill again and realizes that it actually only comes to $25. Realizing this the waiter decides to take $5 from the original $30 and he gives you and your friends each $1 keeping $2 for himself.

So this means that you and your friends only paid $9 each because the waiter each gave you $1 dollar back , don't forget the waiter still kept $2 for himself. So $9+$9+$9+$2=$29 not $30 which is the total you are meant to come to. Does anybody here know where the $1 dollar went as it is driving me crazy.
 
Isn't it $8 + $8 + $9 = $25 (Which they paid) He then gives them each a dollar so $9 + $9 + $10 = $28 (so that's their money)
Then the $2 dollars she kept. $30 dollars, simple. (I think it's confusing because one of the one dollars splits into 0.3333333 so that they each get the same amount.)
 
No it wouldn't be $8+$8+$9 because the waiter gives them each one $1 back from the $10 , $10-$1=$9.
So back to square one ?
 
They each payed 10
10+10+10=30
Then the waiter took 5 off
30-5=25
He gave 3 dollars back to you and your friends and kept 2 for himself
3+2=5
There for the 30 dollars is made up of the 25 you should have paid, the 3 the waiter gave back and the 2 he kept
25+3+2=30
Or if you want to work out how much each paid then
8.33+8.33+8.34+3+2=30
Or
8.33+8.33+8.34=30-3-2=25
So the dollar didn't go anywhere
 
That is essentially what I said but I gave one person an extra dollar because I didn't want recurring money :P
 
He gives them each back a full dollar though.[DOUBLEPOST=1364763103,1364763059][/DOUBLEPOST]or am i not understanding correctly ?
 
The $5 dollars at the start cannot equally divide by the 3 people, hence the missing dollar is hidden in 3, 0.33333333's in what each person paid.
 
Thank you , would've helped my self esteem if you had taken longer to figure it out xD but thanks you two.

Yes he gave them back a full dollar each (total of 3) but he should have given them back and total of 5
This means you need to add to dollars to the amount paid and 2 dollars to the correct price
8.33+8.33+8.34=25
8.33+8.33+8.34+2=25+2=27
9+9+9=27
This means the amount that was paid was 9 dollars each but It should have been 8.33 each (with one paying an extra cent)[DOUBLEPOST=1364763527][/DOUBLEPOST]Its so annoying when you post something that makes no sense because someone posted before right before you.
