Why don't we use the following equations: Min days in bed = INT(Health Lost/2), and Max days in bed = INT(Health Lost*3/2)? I think it is a good idea to maintain a uniform equation type throughout the wiki to keep things simple. --Zombie 00:11, 22 Nov 2005 (PST)

Well, I suppose it could also be illustrated as:

Min = H × 0.5
Max = H × 1.5

This would look even simpler than having lots of divides and multiplications. Still, they all mean the same thing.

Unfortunately, the non-math-savvy cannot understand complicated algorithms, while the hardcore mathematician cannot grasp the concept of simple maths. Well known fact. The same can probably be said for linguists. ;)
