I just discovered this now independently while watching it and took some screen grabs myself and came here to post them.... lol

I'm thrilled that these are out now, way earlier than Blu-ray.

I'll go through and check to see how close I am. I don't see any glaring discrepancies.

Look like you got them bang on to me
 
Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi - cast metal Dice - spoilers I guess? not really

Ok so I've gone through all these new screencaps, and am proud to say my sleuthing skills were superb and everything is perfect... almost. I was 100% sure on what 5/6 symbols were and made a strong educated guess on the 6th which turned out to be correct. Looking at only the blurry pics I had before, it'd be hard to 100% confirm the 6th symbol, the hexagonal one, was correct, but it turns out it was the right symbol. That one is shown in the VD on the canto bight dice, and looked similar to the blur, so I used it and it was right. So that's 6/6 on symbols.

Also, I was pretty sure on the relative positions of each symbol. That turned out to be 100% correct too. 6/6 looking at it simply, but of course there's 24 different ways the 6 symbols could have been arranged, not counting rotations discussed below. so I'll say that's 24/24 correct here

Also, each symbol could be rotated any of 4 directions on their face... and I got all of those right too... except for one. For that last hexagonal one. I'm off by 30º on one side. Not bad for as early as I'm getting these out. The symbol could also probably stand to be a smidge larger too. Everything else seems perfect. but with that one mistake, that's 5/6, looking at it simply, or if each symbol could be in any of four positions, and there's 6 symbols, that's 4^6 just for rotation, so 4095/4096.

So by straight analysis, 17/18 gives me 94.4% accuracy, or technically ((6*24*4096)-1)/(6*24*4096) or 99.9998% accurate. Not what you want to hear, I'm sure, but really not so bad. Certainly excellent based on what I had to go on, with some slight room for improvement.



This math is wrong. It's 6*4^4*5!/2 if anyone cares.

Ugh this has ruined the whole project, Im out........ :D
Honestly, couldn't have asked for better, especially with what you had to work with, might as well be 100% in my book, and an extra congratulations on the accuracy you were able to achieve :thumbsup
 
Re: Star Wars: The Last Jedi - cast metal Dice - spoilers I guess? not really

What do you think your accuracy rate is on this project? Meaning... Do you have enough information on the symbols, which sides those symbols belong, and the direct the symbols go?

I think I'm 96%.

I don't think the film shows enough detail to be 100% sure of the rotations if all the items. It shows enough for the placement, and enough for most of the relative orientations. Like I know the one that has a triangle and an arrow points the same way as the stretched diamond one ad at the small side of the line through the circle one. Things like that. So it's very close. I think if we get behind the scenes footage we might know a tad more about rotation of others but I can't say for sure.

Not a bad guess.

So, depending on how this run goes, how they come out, how orders shape up, inventory, etc., I'll likely do another run for RPF members and others who are keen on having that last ~1% based on the new detail, and offer them up to you all at a considerable discount for backing this first batch. Considering how early we started on this, I'm really pleased with the way the research shaped up for the run and am excited to get these into your hands.

blarghhh... I just found an old referencephoto that I should have thought about more and clearly and I would've been able to discern that hex's rotation.

I'm perfectly happy with the accuracy we'll get with the first set. Theses will be hanging from car mirror, so it's all good.
