Wouldn’t that be something for SV to deal with, removing it from wagering ability ? Every day or so they have offers that are limited to certain games etc, on skycasino they had a promo last week that allowed every game from a section, except for one. I’m not sure that’s the issue.

Ok, the answer. Paradox (loop) destroyed on the second guess.

Firstly, the question has no room for negotiation therefore can only be interpreted one way. Sure, mistaken readers exist but that doesn’t change the grounds of the question. You must choose at random and you must suppose the answer.

Here’s a tip. To make it truly random, even though you know what answers are there, you can hypothetically cover the numbers up as if you don’t know what answers are there. Once you have then chosen an answer, now is a simple time to realise what the answer also should be.

4 answers, all unknown, 25% chance of being correct. Well, not quite. Of course, it depends what answers are given. using common denominators we can see there is only 3 possible answers. This “3” is where the 33.3% mistake comes from, for some people but if so, is actually both wrong and irrelevant. Look :

4 answers all showing 100%
2 answers showing 50% and 2 answers showing anything else
1 answer showing 25% and 3 answers showing anything else

Now uncover the answers. This removes any (some have referred to referential loop or schroedingers cat) paradox, before a second loop simply by working out exactly what the answers could be after guaranteeing a total random state. It’s not negotiable.

it is in fact simply a trick question obviously designed to get people thinking.

Rest assured, there is no paradox.

If there are four possible answers and one of them is fixed as the correct answer, it’s as straightforward as picking one of the four answers at random carries a 25% chance that you picked the right one. However I suspect you’re trying to make some point we’ve covered to death already regarding random and RTP and will therefore misinterpret probability theory in some way which relies on the correct answer itself being random, with an uneven probability distribution.

Happy to explain the mathematics of probability in relation to slots for you for the 32nd time if you like, Mr B ? not sure what the chances are you’d get it this time though!

Interesting response Argyl, however, the question and answer posed is the only thing on my mind in this thread. I have no interest in discussing slots on this thread however I did make a remark on the apology to bio thread.

I do however see a correct answer on here so far.
