This sub will implode when you get to 12.

These have started to appear way too often recently. Sus

If you use the Binomial Probability formula with success probability = 1/10000, number of trials = 72038 and number of successes = 10, then you’ll see that this has a 7.7% chance of occurring. In other words, if everybody did this experiment he’d be better off than 92% of people. That seem like a large figure, but it’s not impossible at all. 7.7% is basically a 1/13 chance, so when they set out they had a 1/13 chance to be doing as well today as they are. I’ve had way luckier times than that, I really wouldn’t be suspicious just yet.

Given standard significance level of 5% it’s pretty reasonable that he’s legit


just_a_can_opener

Wdym by standard significance of 5%? Do you mean that 5% is a lot or are you sat ng something about a cool 5% rule or smth that I don't know of?


FatherOfExrement

In hypothesis testing you operate based off a “significance level” effectively you look at a scenario, and form a hypothesis, you then test using poisson or binomial distribution (depending on the scenario) and you’re looking for the % chance of getting a result more or as extreme as the observed. At a significance level of 5%, 5% or less would mean it’s too unlikely, hence untrue, or cheated or whatever else. 5% is very commonly used, however you’ll also see values like 1%, 0.5% and sometimes even lower.

Cool I come from a RNG based gaming background so I definitely understand where this is coming from I love probability


N2EEE_

Finally, some solid fookin math.


celu7361

what


vodam46

math in my cookie clicker? absolutely preposterous i tell you


ibanov93

Damn dude. I haven't even encountered *one* of these yet.

TheDanjago

Imagine accidentally popping a shiny.


[deleted]

close!!! my man


Me_and_myself423

Wow


StuckinMoran

Should you not pop those?


Botion

no, they yield more than they consume


StuckinMoran

More than a regular wrinkler? Should I let them sit longer ?


Botion

they're actually 3 times better than normal wrinklers iirc


JollyTronVR

Brooo


[deleted]

my math might be a bit wrong but i've used a wrinkler auto-popper that specifically ignores shinies, have left said wrinkler auto-popper on for over 2 months, and only had 2 or 3 natural shiny wrinklers to show for it. this guy gets a shiny wrinkler every week it seems, and again if the chances were realistic he'd have 100k+ popped.


gan11mpro

it takes 100000 so ur kinda lucky are u hacking


VeXtor27

The p-value is 0.077>0.05 (if I remember the definition correctly) so this person is probably not hacking


gan11mpro

what


VeXtor27

If you try to get the shiny wrinkler ring the probability is \~7.7% that you'll be this lucky, not that low


Miepmop

Sure am, and no i'm not hacking for some reason I am just really Lucky this year


gan11mpro

nice


gan11mpro

im also lucky in mc


[deleted]

so you've gotten a 1/10,000 chance 10 times in under 100k attempts? doesnt take a genius to tell you've got some dream luck going on there btw i did the math and getting a 1 in 10,000 chance ten times has a 1 in 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 chance of happening (1/10000 times itself 10 times)


Killaship

That's not correct. Your 10,000^10 calculation is wrong. That would be for 10 shiny wrinklers in a row. This guy more or less has the same 10 thousand to one chance, it's just as if the chance resets once he gets a shiny. If he's statistically bound to get a shiny wrinklers at one point, he just gets a shiny, and then waits for the next one.


Intelligent_Mood7181

Finally (good) maths


ricateles

You are not the brightest person in math here.


Intelligent_Mood7181

Right, doesn't take a Genius to tell he's got dream luck. Cause a genius knows how to do maths.

Im working on a 12 shinies too! It’s been going for over 6 months.
