Random isn't fair, random is random.

I don't know what is so hard to understand here.

Ok make it fair instead......... but the way it is now is unacceptable

9.090909091% does not even come close to reflecting any thing that resembles random or fair

random,  picture 3 cards in a hat, 1,2,and a 3. draw a card (random draw), put the card back in the hat, shake them around and draw another  card (random draw).

doing this ten times in a row it is very possible to pull the same card MOST OF THE TIME! That is what random is.

now FAIR would a rotation were team a get the north side, then team b gets it the next time it comes up in rotation and finally team c gets it in the next rotation.

we have random, not fair.

Random is just as ,or more, fair then any other selection method. Fair is pretty much defined by every has the same chance for an out come (I.E. the definition of random).
Or per dictionary.

in accordance with the rules or standards; legitimate.
"the group has achieved fair and equal representation for all its members"
synonyms:   just, equitable, honest, upright, honorable, trustworthy; impartial, unbiased, unprejudiced, nonpartisan, neutral, even-handed;
lawful, legal, legitimate;

The term your looking for is consistent.

Ok I get it now ......The Map selection is random.....The selection is set up so the Bishops are excluded from the selection. On the Montis map the knights and Rooks take turns being on the side with no spawn thus random. The Bishops always get the bottom right hand side of the map.....I get it now.........it's not fair but it's random......

The randomness of the random settings are now falling in line with what dundee wants. It is only random so it will get where he does not like it again and then randomly come back to where he is happy..... randomly.

Its laughable that you and the 49'rs are at the point that you are insinuating that the staff at HTC have rigged the game to just help one side.

Obviously you do not get it, because this statement has been proven false by you in this very thread.

LMAO!!! Are you still griping about this and the Bish? Do you honestly think that HiTech has programmed the system so that the Bish have the upper hand? You do realize what you are insinuating here...

Come on Dundee...we know you and the 49'ers hate the Bish and will find every excuse to hate us even more...but this is going just a little too far now.

Well you know, if the powers to be can't see a wrong, which a number of other people also see besides me, don't do a thing to fix it............it will fix it's self. I got stuff in the real world to attend to then to waste my time pointing something that is obviously wrong with the game, the numbers speak for themselves .09 % speaks louder than I can.

It's made for great entertainment though.  Need to look on the bright side of things.

Does the record of assignment prove randomness/fairness?   Has it tended to screw the Bish over?
