fuck you muthafucka
ok but really, after 10 games and 355 rolls, my average dice roll that was calculated was 3.0124. now a question for you statistics people: is this so far off from the statistical norm that tampering could be involved in some way shape or form? and for you people with similarly unlucky accounts, did you get similar results? |

at 7:28 AM, Tuesday March 1, 2011 EST I don't understand how chloe or anyone else can 3.0 for average rolling is statistically significant enough to deem curse worthy. Don't you need like a standard deviation or something?
Anyway, I'm game if anyone else wants to try and compile some samples of average dice roll over like 1000 rolls or something. Then derive the variation and the standard deviation of the samples. From there we can figure out the p-values and all that. Chloe you up for that later, I want to put this curse thing to a rest. |

at 8:27 AM, Tuesday March 1, 2011 EST karsten is right, here's the proof http://www.futureaccountant.com/theory-of-expectation-random-variable/problems-solutions/throwing-rolling-dice-01.php
Anyway, what this means is basically that an average roll of 3.0 over 300 isn't that unordinary. Since the standard deviation is about 1.7 this means that 68.2% of the means of the average dice rolls are going to be within the range 1.8 and 5.2. So if you want to prove you have extremely shitty luck you need to be outside of this range at least. That being said Chloe or someone could figure out the p-values for rolling and average of 2 over a certain amount of rolls and deduce what the odds of this are. |
