    So uh. That means 10 marbles on your main all ended in '44'.
    All 10 of your marbles on a mule ended in '1071'
    All 10 of your marbles on another mule matched the exact winning number.
    Rank 0 does not actually exist.

    This is both BS and someone that has no idea how the game actually works.

    Let's pretend you actually did get 10x rank4 on your main. What are the odds of that?
    10 randoms all ending in '44': 100^10 = 1/(10^11) = like, uh... 1 in 100 billion. 10^11
    Great job trying to show off!

    Let's do more odds!
    Odds of 10 randoms all ending in '1071' like your one mule: 10000^10 = 1/(10^13) = 1 in 10000 billion = 1 in 10 trillion.
    Odds of drawing 5 matching winning numbers on the same player like your 'other mule': 100000^10 = 1/(10^14) = 1 in 100 trillion.

    Odds of all 3 of these happening for the same person:
    (10^11)*(10^13)*(10^14) = 10^38... so that's 1 in 100 trillion trillion trillion.

    *thwap*
    Don't even really need the math to prove that this didn't happen.

    In hindsight, should add:
    '...on a mule.'
    On the back of the shirt.

    Well obviously, but it's far more amusing for me to look at it that way. Rawr. Let's try to make it fun! Anyone know offhand the odds of 2 people sharing the same DNA pattern out of random testing? We could put OJ's old idea of a defense based on there being others with the same DNA with 'reasonable doubt' by demonstrating that it would be more likely for there to have been 100 (or many more) other people that could have been the real killers that he's searching for tirelessly... than there would have been for this to have actually happened.

    Wouldn't correct way to apply numbers go like this?

    47396 - Rank 1
    07396 - Rank 2
    00396 - Rank 3
    00096 - Rank 4
    00006 - Rank 5

    SE always did things abnormally idiotic.

    This would've gotten me a Velocious Belt, but unfortunately this isn't how it works.

    Man, if I was one of the uber winners, I'd be freakishly paranoid about admitting it.

    Well, since its not 07396 rather ?7396, The rank 1 guy would win rank 2, rank 3, rank 4 and rank 5 as well (or could claim to have at any rate. I'm sure it was done to avoid that.

    Rank 5 on my main and rank 3 on a mule. I knew I'd win a hauteclaire on a character that's not 75 PLD. Oh well.
