I said in THEORY, meaning that if there are 6 people playing the veto, and he has only a 1 of 6 shot to win it. If we are talking people who have a legit shot at it, it's probaly more of a 1/3 shot that he wins it. Well "In Theory" is a shitty way to talk about odds. In theory, Mt St Mary's had a 1 in 65 shot at winning the NCAA championship, and if you wanted to put a bet down on that, or anything "in theory" please feel free to PM me, I'm sure we can set something up.

If looking at the numbers (and numbers only, not going into abstracts and nonquantifiables), you are mathematically correct. Yep. It sort of plays into the whole "NCAA College Basketball brackets". In theory all #1 seeds should be the final 4 because they are playing against the lowest seeds. Also only 1-4 seeds should make the final 16, and that is never the case. We all know that it never happends (except for this year).

Not really, because you have everyone this week fighting hardcore because of what happened. In theory is also not a shitty way to talk. TC had more chances at winning HoH the last 3 weeks and therefore did.

POV's are usually more strategic, skill based, or endurance. Adam won the other 2 because he's smarter than he lets on. And the only reason that everyone is fighting hardcore today is because Adam did what he did. It's what James wanted too, people to actually have to compete, win, and earn something in this game.

But I do know that you can't say if 6 people playing in a competition that is skill based, strategic based, or endurance based its a 1/6 chance in winning. People have different skill levels, and that determines the odds. It's not just numbers.

OOOhhhhh don't tell MBP that there is some skill to picking odds.........he just see's the numbers as well--the dullard he is.

If looking at the numbers (and numbers only, not going into abstracts and nonquantifiables), you are mathematically correct. I have highlighted the relevant key words seeing as I was careful in saying NUMBERS ONLY. On a strictly numbers basis, swimfan is correct, but if you weigh in experience etc, the numbers would change. PD is freaking awesome. So is Game Theory. I love that kind of stuff and watching it being correctly applied to games like BB and Survivor (Yul was a genius at using PD in Cook Islands).
