Calculator ban is being revoked. F3+C is still allowed. Any program or macro which screen reads is not allowed, and any attempt to get around this rule will not be tolerated (i.e. taking a screenshot and a program reading from that, etc. would not be allowed). Other tools which utilise mathematical functions or macros to utilise a calculator or spreadsheet which do not interact with the game is allowed.
Based on the following factors; history in other games, community debates and arguments, consistency in a ruleset, and specifically the Calculator Poll results, calculators will be unbanned. The results of the community poll can be found below.
