And what are the odds to that?

at 7:00 AM, Wednesday December 22, 2010 EST Anything is possible, but your probability varies by (1-0.47)^N, where N is the number of loses. Plug N in and you find the odds of losing N number of rules, assuming each roll is a distinct event. So as N goes to infinity, we clearly see that there is 0 probability of this happening, as one intuitively might think. Simple ain't it?
Now, if they are such things as curses, well then, you might have a infinite 8v8 losing streak :). |
