This would be the chance of winning 20 in a row if the chance of winning or losing was equal.
Probability of A occuring 20 time(s) = 0.50^20 = .00000095367431640625or about 1 in 1,000,000.out of it.

If you don't understand an argument please do what Remen does and stay out of it.

This is the dumbest statistical theory I've ever seen. Did you even go to college? Stats 101?

When outcome is only A or B, the chance of A occurring 20 times in a row = 0.50^20 --> This is applicable only if the chance of A or B occurring is EQUAL, such as flipping a coin. In EQ racing (with outcome = Guild A or Guild B getting FTE) , chance of A and chance of B getting FTE is not the same.

From what I wrote,"This would be the chance of winning 20 in a row if the chance of winning or losing was equal."

This is probability theory not statistics, you can't read but are calling me dumb LOL.
