Dear Foggers,
You may have noticed i have not been posting on this forum recently, this is largly due to protest in the way people have been deliberatly nasty to each other just to win games, for example someone not to name any names has started to sell his services to those desperate enough to win a free game, this is not what fog used to be about, it used to be about the future of gaming, not the constant slagging off of forum users and deliberate scheming (sometimes not pleasant)in order to have a few moments of glory.

And how many games could you possibly want to win notables?
Perhaps uo could take a backseat and let others have a chance for a change!, and not charge for the pleasure of helpping someone write a good article,
I conclude this letter by saying this will be my last post if everyone in the forum are constant backstabbers, or i will return if someone can give me a glimmer of hope for sanity and fair play

Signed

Methinks we should do some math here.

Posts per day = 2090 (approx)

% Concentration level = ( 1 -(posts read/(coffee*30)) )*100

Therefore, assuming Ali's coffee intake to be = 70 cups a day (approx)

His concentration level will be (1 - 2090/2100)*100 = 0.5%

Now, assuming the chances of the best post winning are equal to

(Ali's conecentration level/100)*(1/number of good posts)

assuming there are about 20 good posts per day (Including reviews, perhaps.)

Therefore, your chance of winning = 0.5/100 * 1/20 = 0.0025

so you should win once every 4000 days.
