I haven’t finished my analysis yet, let alone decided a strategy based on it, but I have made some progress.
Findings thus far:
Girls with a Blum-Blooper make 6 Noise.
Girls with a Who-Whonker make 5 or 10 Noise.
Girls with a Fum-Foozler make 8 or 16 Noise.
Boys with a Blum-Blooper make 6 or 12 Noise.
Boys with a Who-Whonker make 9 or 18 Noise.
Boys with a Fum-Foozler make 4 or 8 Noise.
Sloo-Sloonkers make 4+ceiling((1+Age)/2) Noise, except sometimes you give them to boys and they make more.
Gah-Ginkas make 4+ceiling((14-Age)/2) Noise, except sometimes you give them to girls and they make more.
Trum-Troopas are hard to predict but there are a lot of 5s and 10s in that distribution and the average is pretty high.
And most importantly:
Though I haven’t quite confirmed this yet, it looks like children who react unusually to a given present one Christmas (doubled Who-Whonker Noise, bonus Sloo-Slonker Noise, etc) tend to react the same way on subsequent Christmases. If that’s true, it means my next step should be researching the noise history of the individual Whos I’m targeting.
