However, I would have no hesitation >about using a formula exactly like the table. I voted concise, but really, I should imagine it wouldn't be too difficult to create a concise formula that is very close to the tables. They are based on the AD&D tables, but instead of being d20, they are d100. The AD&D tables had very definite formula, though they varied for each class. Personally, I changed the saving throw tables from d100 to d30 (just added 10 to the AD&D L1 saving throws and followed the formula through to level 30). And then added a 'saving throw modifier' argument to the mag_savingthrow() function :) Just out of curiosity (another poll item, George? :) how many people out there actually stay with the default of 30 levels?
