Something I've wondered about for a long time. Why are the training costs to LEARN a skill so ... unusual?
91? Why not 90, or 100? 4826? 567? 849?
Was there some algorithm that went into determining these? The math geek in me wonders why these #'s are not all powers of 10 (or 2), multiples of 5 or 10, prime, fibonacci values, or something else. Or do I just not recognize something subtle (or obvious)?
Not a big deal either way, but was curious from a "cb historical" context.

8 exp gives a total level of 25
91 exp gives a total level of 50
And so on, for all other spells. The numbers are very rounded, you are just looking at the wrong numbers ;)
