This egg is an informational guide to help middle-level members use their egg point interest as well as they can. This is very in-depth so don’t rate down because you don’t like math, i’ve provided easy, non-math summaries in blue.. once again this egg can help you out a lot so i suggest you read through it. But, if you don’t feel like reading through the explanations, I created a formula list for this egg at the bottom, which will show you how to do this egg in short steps.
Math will be in RED, while summaries of the math will be in BLUE.
First off.. you need to know the following:
1)EPI=Egg Point Interest
2)Your EPI isnt affected by your daily point limit
3)Your EPI is added to your eggpoints at the end of the RE day
4)Go here for more information on EPI:
http://rotteneggs.com/r3/show/se/700-forum-display_topic-0-1000-14439.html
5)EPI always rounds up.. so as soon as you have 12.01 eggpoints of interests, you recieve 13.
List of abbreviations:
-EPI=Egg Point Interest
-EP=Spendable Egg Points
-IR=Interest Rate
-IIR=Interest Increase Rate
-EPL=Daily Eggpoint Limit
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, find your interest rate: (see pic 1)
my interest rate is 0.49376%, but since it is in %, you must divide that by 100 to get your real interest rate, so my real interest rate is .0049376. So to find your EPI, you do this:
EP x IR = EPI
So for me, it would be:
4836 x 0.0049376 = 23.878
23.878 rounds up to 24,
so my EPI is 24 (you can just find your EPI on your egg point summary page, but i just wanted to show you how to find it yourself and this will come in and be more important later on)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Knowing this, you can use this to your advantage. So now onto the real egg.
First, find your IIR (interest increase rate), or the number of eggpoints you need to make your interest rate go up by one.
The formula for your IIR is:
1 / IR = IIR
So for me it would be:
1 / 0.0049376 = 202.5
This means that every 203 egg points i make, my eggpoint interest goes up by 1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since, at member level 7, i can get a maximum of 416 eggpoints per day (not including my EPI), i can increase my EPI by 2 for every day i max out.
heres the math:
EPL > IIR x 2
416 > 203 x 2 (203 x 2 = 406)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, now that i know it takes me one day of maxing out egg points to raise my eggpoint interest by 2, i want to know how long it will be until i can get 100 (lets just say that for now) eggpoints of interest per day i visit.
you would use the same formula to find your EPI (the one from above), except this time you would enter the EPI to begin with and find the number of eggpoints you would need to recieve the given number of interest.
EP x IR = EPI
Except for this time when i fill this out for my status, i will enter the EPI as 100, and my IR as it currently is (0.0049376), and use them to find my EP.
EP x 0.0049376 = 100
Now take a trip back to highschool math, to balancing equations. I’m sure none of you want to go back there so i’ll make it easy for you. divide your EPI (100) by your IR (0.0049376). This will give you your EP
EP = EPI (100) / IR (0.0049376)
This give you:
20253 = 100 / 0.0049376
So, as soon as i have 20,253 eggpoints, at my current interest rate, i will get 100 eggpoints per day of interest.
This formula can be done with your egg points easily.. just look at my formula list down at the bottom in red.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That’s all i feel like writing for now, but i’ll probably make a Part II to this if this is successful. Tell me what you guys think about it and any suggestions. Here’s the Formula List:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Formula List:
All the formulas from this egg, so you can use them for your own needs
To find your EPI (Egg Point Interest):
EP (Your Spendable Egg Points) x IR (Your Interest Rate) = EPI (Your Egg Point Interest)
To find your IIR (Interest Increase Rate- the number of eggpoints you need to make your interest rate go up by one):
1 / IR (Interest Rate) = IIR (Interest Increase Rate)
To find the number of eggpoints you need to get a certain amount of eggpoints per day of interest:
EP (Your Spendable Egg Points) x IR (Your Interest Rate) = EPI (Your Egg Point Interest)
Steps:
1) Fill in the IR with your interest rate
2) Fill in the EPI with the number of eggpoints of interest you want
3) Divide your EPI by IR (EPI / IR)
4) This will give you the number of eggpoints you need to recieve the number of eggpoints of interest you put in at your current interest rate.

Please give me feedback on this egg.. i want to know whether it was worth the time i put in, and whether i should make any more. Thanks. |

 | Jun 08, 2006 7:08 am - sorry.. i didn’t see this til now, the last formula should be:
EP (Your Spendable Egg Points) = EPI (Your Egg Point Interest) / IR (Your Interest Rate) |

 | Jun 08, 2006 7:11 am - i dont get it... |

 | Jun 08, 2006 7:11 am - 5*****’s + Favs |

 | Jun 08, 2006 7:14 am - I’m sure this is brilliant, but my brain has quit for the summer. 5*s |

 | Jun 08, 2006 7:49 am - good info but how does it help? |

 | Jun 08, 2006 7:56 am - how this helps:
basically all low-middle level members on RE can get twice as much interest points than they are now in less than a week.. since rating eggs has a small but noticable affect on your interest rate, rate a lot of eggs, and find your interest increase rate. use the interest increase rate to raise your interest points.. it worked for me, my interest rate is significantly higher than it was when i took the screenshot last night. i’ll say more in part 2 of the egg |

 | Jun 08, 2006 8:29 am - Nicely done, 5 stars, and favs. Great egg. |

haha:d you fuckin rule |
| Jun 08, 2006 9:18 am - If there wasn’t a limit, my interest would be over 9,000,000 points |

 | Jun 08, 2006 9:44 am - Sweet Jesus Infectious, now THAT is an egg. *100 |

 | Jun 08, 2006 9:49 am - 5*s |

Quote: So, as soon as i have 20,253 eggpoints, at my current interest rate, i will get 100 eggpoints per day of interest. right but by the time youd done that your IR would have gone up,
4stars btw |

 | Jun 08, 2006 10:44 am - Neato... |

 | Jun 08, 2006 11:25 am - 5* and favs |

 | Jun 08, 2006 12:33 pm - 5 |

 | Jun 08, 2006 1:20 pm - nice...4 |
| Jun 08, 2006 1:42 pm - Just because something is long and someone spent an hour typing it doesn’t mean it makes sense or is useful.
ANYONE THAT RATED THIS GREATer than 0 is an idiot. |

 | Jun 08, 2006 2:56 pm - ^but it does make sense and is useful.
5***** |

 | Jun 08, 2006 3:17 pm - Great Egg.
5***** and Favs |

 | Jun 08, 2006 4:26 pm - WOW! Lots of information and useful to everyone who would care. (includes me) 5* my friend and favorites |

 | Jun 08, 2006 4:53 pm - how isnt this useful??? this actually helps people 5* |

 | Jun 08, 2006 5:40 pm - Ill fav it and rate it a 5, but the intrest does not directly correlate with your amount of egg points. It is also affected by other factors, such as refferals and fourm posts. |

 | Jun 08, 2006 8:25 pm - 5*** i dont know what the hell you sead but GOOD JOB |

 | Jun 10, 2006 7:36 pm - thats too much for me.. i just make good eggs and dont pay atention to the sorta stuff... i think im like a ten or something |

Now take a trip back to highschool math, to balancing equations. I’m sure none of you want to go back there so i’ll make it easy for you. divide your EPI (100) by your IR (0.0049376). This will give you your EP
EP = EPI (100) / IR (0.0049376)
WHY THE FUCK dont you just divide 100 by 0.0049376 instead of turning something simple into rocket science?!?! |

 | Jun 13, 2006 4:20 am - Sweet |

 | Jun 29, 2006 12:14 pm - I love math eggs! 5*’s |

 | Jun 30, 2006 1:53 am - I stopped reading after the word maths was mentioned. 4* for the effort |

 | Jul 31, 2006 10:54 pm - I’m with boomstick. Theres nothing going on in my head in the summer. I’ll gve it a 5* from what evryone else is saying. |

Quote: I stopped reading after the word maths was mentioned. 4* for the effort lol...id rate but i have no idea what good IR is...what does it do? IM me please. |

 | Oct 27, 2006 8:08 pm - I don’t understand, but 5* anyways |

 | Nov 17, 2006 10:13 am - I failed grade 9 math.
But *5* because it is pretty freakin’ obvious that you put a shitload of effort into this! |

 | Jun 15, 2007 10:11 am - well organized and, i like math 5** |

 | Dec 15, 2007 8:25 am - nice. i like the effort, 5*s |

 | Jul 20, 2008 6:33 pm - Pretty much simple mathemetics |

 | Jul 20, 2008 7:35 pm - This was my favorite egg until the "filthy’s method" egg came out. | |
