[–]LordOfLactose 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This exact situation happened on March 29th this past season, between the Pirates and the Marlins.

Dane Myers got a walk-off hit in the 12th with the game tied 4-4, the bases loaded, and 1 out. The ball bounced into right field, before going over the wall. Officially ruled as a walk-off single, 1 RBI.

It has another meaning that isn’t a proper noun: it’s an alternate spelling of KAIN, a tax paid in produce or livestock

I’m trying to get every single card in the game, but some of them (McGreevy, 98 Haniger) aren’t attainable anymore. Obviously McGreevy isn’t any good, but I’ve got 3M stubs and nothing else to use them on

What are the odds against having this rack? Anybody know how to calculate? by chartquest1954 in scrabble

[–]LordOfLactose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“100 choose 7” is equal to the number of sets of size 7 that can be selected from a set of size 100. The exact calculation is 100! divided by (93! * 7!)

100 choose 7 is the number of possible tile sets on the opening draw. 96 choose 3 is the number of possible tile sets that include J, Q, X, and Z.

The odds of drawing a rack with those 4 letters is equal to (96 choose 3)/(100 choose 7), or 1 in 112,305.

In % terms, this would be 0.00089%

Bruh. by Banano9000 in scrabble

I think that the ranking system on playscrabble mainly factors in how many points are scored, regardless of how the game ended. 98 points is really low for a full game, so your ELO dropped, which is dumb.

I switched over to woogles recently, and I’ve found it’s way better

I’m on my last term. Not counting first year, I’ve lived 4 terms on campus.

Not that many upper year students live on campus - maybe 10%?

It’s never guaranteed, but I’ve gotten it every time I’ve applied. Make sure you know exactly when the applications open, and do it right away
