I have gained mega spam skillz

control insert is a mass way to press paste! -Author Unknown-Author Unknown-Author Unknown-Author Unknown-Author Unknown-Author Unknown-Author Unknown-Author Unknown-Author Unknown-Author Unknown-Author Unknown

Math Time!

In this game I was playing today (mario party 1 :P)you have a choice to get 10% on the money you earn or double it 50% of the time and half it the otheor half (casino). From a first look, you would think it would be smarter to get the 10% right? Wrong, in actuallity the casino option is better

if you get 10 coins with the 10% option for 2 games you end up with 22coins

with the casino option if you win 10 coins (ouble it the first time, half it the second) youend up with 25 coins

how clever of the developers! Make you think the best option is one of the worst
