Faile/FairQ Update, by Sacked... on Jul 12, 2008 19:15:43 GMT 1, just won a challenger! I already paid for a bad seed. Hhhhmn what to choose? 
If you've already payed for a bad seed surely they wont let you buy another as you can only win and pay for one print,anyway you got the better print !

Indeed... seems less than random... people winning 2 or 3 from the original Q then more from the others

You are good with odds Mike. What do you think the random chances are of people winning 3 or 4 queues?

Difficult to say without knowing a few stats...
But say, for example 500 people enter each queue
The probability of entering and winning one queue is 1/500 so 0.002%
The probability of entering and winning 2 queues is 0.002 x 0.002 which is 0.000004% which is 1/250000
HOWEVER this only works if there is one winner in the queue
There were 52 queues and you wanted to know the chances of someone winning 3 of them (based on 500 entering each queue so a probability of 0.002% i.e. only 1 winner in each, and also the person entering EVERY queue) is 0.0001602797970171479
Call it 0.00016 so 1/6250 chance to win 3 of 52 queues, this chance is of course increased as there were more than one winner for some queues. It also increases/decreases depending on how many people enter each queue

I'd guess that certain Qs had far less entrants, which combined with some of the higher print runs would make the odds not that outlandish. I think Melmoth had the most incredible of the results that I've seen, winning the popular Bret OG as well as one of the stencils (I think?).
It actually SEEMS like more people than not actually won something from what I've seen, and I'm guessing most of the ones that didn't might have only entered for only the more limited/popular images. Did anyone enter every Q and come away completely empty handed?

I didn't enter every q but did enter about 25 and have come away empty handed.

Your not the only one, I managed to get a response once by email, and requested another invoice, but that has been two days and no new invoice.
This is turning into a nightmare, and i just can be bothered with it anymore, so another one back in the pot.

I know two people who entered 31 fair-qs and did not win anything. I entered 30 fair-qs and only won one lottery.

faile.net/store/item.php?id=911621992 Boxer Mpls Archive Blue/Grey-$SOLD
faile.net/store/item.php?id=476485834
faile.net/store/item.php?id=421039430 Fashion Chimp Mpls Archive Blue-$SOLD
And who the hell paid 4 grand for a hits and crashes? Or 8 grand for a sexy ad that's practically identical to the regular edition that sells for about 2 grand.
Those Faile crests are extremely expensive too for something that's not very iconic...

So, I guess the game is now up - if you have one, enjoy - if you don't, it looks like you won't.
Bring on the Laz show!
