gollark: I think it would be betterer if you just had a function converting total XP to level instead of some amount being necessary for each level. It's easier to keep in sync.
gollark: Maybe just make the level the square root of the XP or something.
gollark: > l = 1/60 ((90 sqrt(5184 x^2 + 3400 x + 3125) + 6480 x + 2125)^(1/3) - (55 5^(2/3))/(18 sqrt(5184 x^2 + 3400 x + 3125) + 1296 x + 425)^(1/3) - 5)That is quite some formula.
gollark: Wait, so all bibliocraft-derived books error now?
gollark: If you persist with being triangular, I *may* have to deploy laser bees.
