Neither of your scenarios contradicted my above statement. I do not believe you understood my reasoning for why I stated what I did in terms of how random numbers are generated by programs. There's always a cycle, due to the very nature of the algorithm, thus it is almost impossible for the theoretical crit % to differ greatly from the actual crit % over a long boss fight.

Your reasoning is akin to saying that proof of micro-evolution is enough evidence to prove the existence of macro-evolution. (Not to say I don't believe in macro-evolution, but that is an entirely different topic.)
