Shade's recently stated position is that math does not solve problems and only serves to further complicate them ... when the math contradicts his agenda.

"Shade's Material" is that he won't discuss numbers because they'll be used out of context to distort the issue. This Context of Distortion pre-exists the Doonesbury comic strip linked. At least that's what I got from it.� Trying to explain it has made it less amusing. The phrase "Shade Math" is quite old.� Here's an example from about two and a half years ago: http://www.ddovault.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1265927841/129

Sorry you are not happy. Skoodge wrote on Nov 27^th, 2014 at 6:54am: DDO is easy to summarize - the greatest game to suck the most ass. GooFY wrote on Mar 2^nd, 2015 at 5:36pm: Turbine - So incompetent that we are skeptical when they report their own incompetence. � Meursault wrote on May 11^th, 2015 at 8:10pm: Other companies will settle for shitting out garbage, Turdbin actually prefers to. Especially if they can get us to buy it, that just cracks them up. Meursault wrote on Nov 12^th, 2015 at 2:50pm: Breaking something and putting it back together isn't as good as not breaking it to begin with, it's not even close. palmer01 wrote on Nov 20^th, 2015 at 9:05am: Devs do not care what players want - they already have an agenda and give out token gestures so the paladins can feel worthy.
