Ok, that's leading me to think it's a random crapshoot as to whether your answer will be correct or not. Bugger! It's a total crapshoot, yes. How it works: A random number is generated between 0 and 99. Option A is correct if this number is 50 or less. Otherwise B. Always, therefore, choose A, favored 51% to 49%, for your 2% edge. :P And remember, DEATH TO ALL NESSES.<Moar Soon> Title: Re: Fun BV Statistics Post by: Aggie on 2007 September 09, 11:22:11 Well, you know what they say: when you're right 51% of the time, that means you're also wrong 49% of the time. >:(
Title: Re: Fun BV Statistics Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2007 September 09, 11:41:49 Actually, how it works is that if you have a 50/50 chance of being right, you will be wrong 90% of the time.
Title: Re: Fun BV Statistics Post by: Ness on 2007 September 09, 11:47:46 Yep, probability sucks. Just because you have a 2% greater chance of being right with option A, doesn't mean it's not impossible to have option B the correct answer 50 consecutive times. :-\
