[@TatsugiriTheFeesh]

WE MUST GO TO THE MALL

[@OctozenX]

To get the same map 15 times in a row would originally be 1/32,768. But given you went cross rotation you have to consider the probability of it appearing 2 rotations in a row (the exact same map and mode on any anarchy/X rotation)… this brings the total chances to 1 in 1,310,720 or 0.00008%. Given the proper maths, I do believe this is probably a world record

[@thequagiestsire]

We *NEED* to boost this comment to the top, Chara must absolutely know how absurd his new record is

[@galacticp1]

This is a true record

[@mynameisntactually]

if im not wrong isnt it usually the same map many times in a row? i feel like i have the same map lots of times in a row, and then the next lots of tomes in a row randomly

[trauma intensifies] In splatoon 1 (y'know, the days of 4 hour rotations), I once had Moray Towers Splat Zones something ridiculous like 23 times in a row followed by the other map (think it was Hammerhead) once followed by another 6 or so Moray Towers The tears I cried when I finally got to play something that wasn't Moray

[@Dav-star-SS]

this is why we need 3 maps in a rotation

[@madribi4246]

think about it if when 3 map in rotation in this situation again you play in only one map. btw in splatoon 2 while splatfest going rotation always has marina's map besie other 2. think about if you got only marina's map :\

[@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868]

@@Bowser6495 I mean just objectively it means you'd have a 1/3 chance instead of a 1/2 chance for each map, meaning the odds of getting the same map x times in a row goes from scaling as 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32 to 1/3, 1/9, 1/27, 1/81, etc so it scales much quicker and you have a much lower chance of getting a map an insane amount of times in a row. 1/3 compared to 1/2 might not sound like a big difference but it changes it a lot

[@t.h.g3298]

Getting Barnacle and Dime 15 times in a row is amazing tbh

[@ray_zn_]

i wonder if someone calculated the odds of this + barnacle clams being in rotation twice in a row because i know its gonna be SO much rarer than just 1/32,000

[@a_shrxydud]

i tried to calculate the odds of barnacle being in rotation again, and using that the estimated probability of getting barnacle 15 times when the rotation changes midway through and still has barnacle somewhere is 0.000171%

[@SomeGalNamedEve]

Let's see... Without the mode change, it's 1 in 32,768. Now you divide that by 2/3 for the 2/3 chance that Clams would still be in rotation (not 1/4 because X battle was guaranteed to be something else) to get 49152. Then you divide it by 1/10 chance that one of the maps would be Barnacle and Dime, which comes out to 491520. So there was (roughly) a *_1 in half a million_* chance for this scenario to happen.

[@macaroni8]

Rip better thumbnail@@SomeGalNamedEve

[@Gamebrojeremy1]

If I had a dime for everytime Chara got Barnacle & Dime, I’d have 15 dimes, which is definitely a lot and it’s wild that it happened 15 times…

[@HoverMelon2000]

This is amazing. Also the editing was spot on, especially with the Barnacle copium and the sad Spongebobs with the weapons Chara splatted.

[@Fridgemasters]

i remember when flounder came out me and my friends wanted to play it but we got like 20 straight games in a row of pre patch mahi and it was miserable

[@joejones6353]

It always seems like there's a dominant map in every rotation. It genuinely never feels like 50:50.

[@whiteninji352]

Be thankful that the other map was Brinewater, so the game was being merciful with the giving you the same map repeatedly

[@MxTheLight]

I have a feeling Chara will convince his teammates to counterpick to Clams on Barnacle and Dime

[@SomeGalNamedEve]

This is legitimately one of the greatest Splatoon videos I've ever watched, holy shit Getting the same map mode 12 times in a row, then somehow being lucky enough to have the exact same one available in Series, and _then_ pushing it to 15 times in a row with 1 in *_32,768_* odds is genuinely insane

[@SomeGalNamedEve]

So I calculated what the chances of this are when to factor in the chance of Barnacle Clams still being in rotation, and it came out to 491520. So this scenario had a (roughly) _1 in _*_half a million_* chance to happen. This is genuinely some of the best luck I've ever seen

[@macaroni8]

Well, no matter what sequence of maps you get, it is technically always a 1 in 32000 chance of that specific sequence to happen. So hey, your special! :D lol sorry that was uncalled for

[@roomismoor]

@@macaroni8 i mean technically you are right! i always like to think, “oh, whatever i get in maps, (or whatever i am doing at the moment) even if i don’t get the same one in a row, the combinations i do get are still very rare!)

When you have that one obnoxious friend who will always, without fail, ask to have the next group hangout be at the mall.

(No this has not happened to me, but it's the story my brain came up with on the fly. Idk man.)

[@adorabunny2538]

Isn't there like a "Gambler's Fallacy" thing where just because the chance that 5 games of Barnacle in a row being 1.65% possible doesn't change the fact that getting Barnacle and Dime is like 50% chance still?

[@OafishSunn]

Actually it's a 50/50, either you get Barnacle 15 times in a row or you don't

[@StarKnight54]

Noticing that Chara always says "Go" in 5s is funny

[@isturma]

Technically it's 50:50 every time, but yeah this is crazy. Normally matchmaking will only do this to me if i want to play a specific map, and then it'll proceed to only give me the other one.

[@SirDeppadVI]

If you don’t know: when calculating the chances of something happening in a row the odds (from 0-1) are multiplied. So the first game it’s 0,5:0,5, then 0,75:0,25, then 0,875:0,125 and so on

[@The21stGamer]

@@SirDeppadVI It's worth mentioning that this can also be illustrated visually through a probability tree. In particular for 15 games each with 2 outcomes and a 1/2 chance of each outcome, when B represents Barnacle and N represents everything that isn't Barnacle, the final outcome that Chara got can be represented by the arm defined as: BBBBBBBBBBBBBBB Which is only one outcome out of the thousands of other potential outcomes, therefore a ridiculously low chance of occurring.

[@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868]

I mean yeah that's how statistics works. The 1/4096 or whatever it was isn't the odds of it happening any given time, it's the odds of it happening over and over and over again
