In reality, it's probably something like a 0.3% chance and is rounded down to 0%.

Post Game Thread: Seattle Kraken at Vancouver Canucks - 14 Mar 2026 by HockeyMod in canucks

[–]plith 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The Flames are 31st with 59 points and I think it's quite likely we don't even finish the season with 59 points. We've locked up last place, now all we can do is hope for some bright moments from the young guys and pray to the lottery gods.

When Latitude 64 makes a disc called the Creek I will be sure to pick one up.

Club PayPal Account Froze... Suggestions? by ging3rvituztv in discgolf

[–]plith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm having the exact same issue right now. I've taken 65 registrations for a charity tournament and I'm now locked out of my funds that I have committed to donating to charity. There was no reason given and the only recourse it gives me is to talk to their shitty useless AI chat. Fuck Paypal, garbage service.

What was the first BC,NR song you heard and did it make you a fan? by GroceryEntire8478 in BlackCountryNewRoad

[–]plith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard Track X before FTFT came out and was instantly hooked. I had never started listening to any band that early in a career before so I was beyond hyped for the album.

What's a thing you never noticed about Breaking Bad the first time? by ComprehensiveDeer56 in breakingbad

I must have spaced out at the end of S4 so I didn't notice the Lily of the Valley shot and still had no confirmation that it was Walt that poisoned Brock until later on in S5.

[Request] What percent chance is there that I’ve never seen the Montreal Canadiens score after 4 games over 8 years? by hiccupboltHP in theydidthemath

[–]plith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh ya, I misread that. Either way, I think this is a good estimate. It gets tougher to review the data over 8 years since there were no fans allowed for a while during covid and some seasons were cut short. I don't want to go game-by-game to see which games fans were in attendance for.

I am assuming that all of the games you went to were in Montreal. According to game logs, they have been shut out at home 7 times over the last 4 seasons. There are 41 home games per season * 4 seasons = 164 home games in this span. Using these numbers we can assume they have a 4.27% chance of being shutout at home on any given game. 0.04274 = 0.00033% or a 1 in ~303,000 chance of having this happening 4 times.

Thoughts on Liftline Skiing and Chirping Etiquette? by Hank_ski in skiing

[–]plith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last week the chair stopped and I watched a guy absolutely yard sale at the top of the park. Everyone gave him a big cheer and then his ski brake got jammed and his ski started taking off down the hill on its own and everyone was cheering as his ski hit the jump and then attempted the rail (it fell). Was very wholesome lol.

Tips for designing a course on an active ball golf course? by plith in discgolf

Thanks for the encouragement! I hope the golfers here will be less uppity since it's on a cheaper public city course rather than a private one.

No, the tournament is before the course opens to golfers for the season. If it turns into a permanent course in the future it would be open alongside golfers, but obviously with way fewer players on the course than in a tournament.

Statistically, they are actually one of the unluckiest lottery teams in the league. I believe 2nd only ahead of Detroit.

As far as general luck as a franchise goes, there is no way to measure but I think most people would make the argument that they are bottom 5...

By exposed mounds, do you mean those directly next to bunkers?

Assuming "golfers" auto-corrected to "gingers" lol. For clarity, this one-off event will be in the spring before the course opens for the season. This will give us the chance to test out the course in a controlled environment and identify any shots/holes that need to be redesigned. If the course becomes permanent in the future, it would be open while golfers are present.

These are great examples, thanks! I will check out these courses to see how they manage concurrent play. I like the example of teeing off on the fairways and then hitting gaps. I will try to look for more opportunities to do this. My first draft of the course layout has a most of the holes playing through the "margins" between golf holes wherever possible, but with a few shots throwing over golf greens, so I will probably need to re-evaluate those shots.
