"Random Draw?" - Reality TV World Message Board Forums

Reality TV World Message Board Forums PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

4. "I don't think so:"
It's all because they are independant draws: There is only 1 arrangement to get the 5 women on one tribe but there are many ways to get a 4-1 split: Brenda+Kelly+Holly+Jane w/ Nay on the other side Brenda+Kelly+Holly+Nay w/ Jane on the other side Brenda+Kelly+Jane+Nay w/ Holly on the other side Brenda+Holly+Jane+Nay w/ Kelly on the other sde Holly+Jane+Nay+Kelly w/ Brenda on the other side All those have to count in your 4w splits. The numbers increase when you add the men because B/K/H/J could have either Chase or Benry or Marty or etc... Now with the 3/2 splits, we easily get to the 252 arrangements. Forgetting the sit-out, I think what you are doing is like throwing 10 Pennies in the air 100 times and seeing how many times you would get 5 heads and 5 tails but that is not what we have here: We have 5 Nickels and 5 Pennies. When the first Nickel lands on Head then all the other Nickels have to turn out Head while all the Pennies have to turn out tails. That's not the same. But I am not a statistician. Maybe Cahaya could help!
