Dark Lord Day (2020)

For all the questions about "randomness," it's important to remember that people use that word to mean different things. It doesn't necessarily mean without existence pattern or reason. Randomization helps to reduce bias, but it does not eliminate it. It sounds like FFF introduced some amount of randomization, but it wasn't completely randomized. If we take "random" to mean that indiviudal bags were unpredictable, but in the long run we have an expected distribution of bags, then I think this is pretty close to what happened

I think we can see from bags being similar to those around them, there was some amount of convenience used in packaging bags and bringing them outside for pickup. That introduced bias and I can see why, especially when people got repeat bags, people didn't like that. They did say the bags were "packaged at random," not that they were given out at random. I think we can all agree, it is both difficult to truly randomize on this scale and that it seems as though they could have done more to mix things up a little more when packing bags.

 

This all makes me wonder how many people who lose money bitch about casinos on the flight home from Vegas.

 

Its never our fault when we lose.

"made, done, happening, or chosen without method or conscious decision."
Sounds exactly how they packaged the totes and about how they gave them out.

 

At least until the first person with 3 allocations gets TurtleDoggyStyled.

 

So your saying though DLD has changed, the thread hasn't?

 

I'm assuming the answer is no, but did anyone move their pickup date? I have zero chance of making it tomorrow on my date, so my only hope would be to change it to Sunday.

 

This is why I gave up playing the lottery. I mean sometimes it seriously feels like they WANT me to lose on my scratchoffs!

 

I heard that's the GTM/Turtledogg day.

 

I moved my mine, immediately after purchasing I realized I had the wrong date. They were very accomodating.

 

So I live maybe 10 minutes from Floyds. Is it worth stalking their social media to try and get in on another round?

 

3 pages of people arguing over the definition of random. This is why I come to BA.

 

Thanks, that helps!

 

My brother was able to move his pickup after he couldn’t make it on his scheduled date. Good luck!

 

ISO: Turttledog

For science!

 

I'm fairly certain I know exactly who you are talking about. Guy that is always trying to flip BCBS for ridiculous prices?

 

Well are you gonna throw your hat into the ring or just sit there like some dumb guy who doesn't have an opinion on the word random?!

 

PM'd . I have a FT: Turtledogg (pre) ISO:shipping label.

 

Hoping for you that you don't have a Turttledog (pre), hoping for me that you do have a turttledog (pre) haha

 

The only way I can feel better about myself is if I see someone get only Turtledoggs.

Also for anyone that does get multiples of a shit beer, circle back around and kindly ask if you can get a swap because a few people here managed to do so. Nothing to lose honestly.
