The experiments are still going, though I'm behind on doing the data analysis. I made a mistake in terminating the previous round of data collection (7 torches with the Ghazt breeding, and 4 with the Entbrat breeding) too early; the uncertainties are too large. The current round (10 torches for the Ghazts, and 7 for the Entbrats) is almost finished -- another month or so should be good enough.

After that, I think we'll go back to the previous set and get more data... kind of a waste of diamonds spent on torches, but when one collects the diamonds produced in the mines every day, as well as the daily login game, they add up in the long term. Several of the "minions" have won the "1000 diamonds" maximum prize by now: 0.0093% per try, and we've been at it just about 1000 days, gives them each about an 8.9% chance of getting it. Many have got the "100 diamonds" prize at least once; 0.11% per try gives a 67% chance for each of them to have at least one success.

As for voices... well, my real voice is close enough to BH's that I can do it pretty well, though I do a better Kermit.
