Rubix: you don't even need Bayes theory for the mental 5 probability question...

just realize that with the 1st one being black, you have .5 chance of it being a space. so you have 51 cards left to pick from, and 50% shot at 13 spades and 50% shot at 12 spades... aka, 12.5/51. simple as that. i guess it probably is Bayes theory, just done in my head, but it's fairly straightforward and intuitive.

I feel dumb, I was aonly able to get to one of the mental challenge, the number 2 and I didn't get to it the right way. Here's what I did:
I went to the furms search and then I secrhed for "omnipwn" in threads, it gave me a list, I clicked on "FFR Scores" thread. When I was there, I searched in the thread for "omnipwn" and it gave me the mental challenge's post lolol. Also, fort the Round 3, I don't even have WingDings 3 and I searched for it all over the web, does anyone know where to get it or in which program it should be in my computer (standard PC, no mac).

should be on MS Word. i use OpenOffice and didn't have it either... so i specifically told rubix "uh, dude... i don't have wingdings 3 on openoffice" so he was like, "oh? really? um... here. let me give you a SS of the characters that you'll need."

just have to be proactive and actually know what you need, even if you don't have it.

To tell the truth even with it, I would not have been able to do the mental challenge so... I'm just saying.

I understand that you can also use a symmetry argument -- I just like Bayes rule lol
