so I entered the ban lottery
    #112513 - 08/21/08 07:09 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

It says Tangerines, Phriend, b0b gnarley, MFDoom666, and 0xYg3n have already entered, and that my chances of being banned are 1:5 (20%)

This is clearly incorrect

Yep, I just tried it too, looks like it tells you the odds prior to your entry when you enter.

Quote:

Current ban odds are 1:7 (14.3%)
These people have entered the ban lottery this week:
Tangerines, Phriend, b0b gnarley, MFDoom666, 0xYg3n, Harry_Ba11sach, Sativus



That looks OK to me, except that Coaster isn't listed.

Yes, it's correct before you join.  But after you join, the odds aren't updated to include your presence. (I don't think this is worth bothering Ythan with, it's pretty trivial)

yeah, that's why I posted here instead of in WA&F, it's pretty easy to figure out your actual odds if you want to

I hope you know that when you consume alcohol you are consuming empty calories. Think about that next time you hit the bottle.
