I got two yesterday just twitting about which is extraordinary.

 

Made me wonder if there's something different.

 

 

There's a fine line between a numerator and a denominator but only a fraction of people understand that.

RNG giveth and taketh.

 

How can it take?

 

Mostly I genuinely think RNG hates me... but it remembers me sometimes and pops it's pustule-infested, lice-ridden, wart-covered face into my game just to go "Ha! I still hate you!"

 

There used to a be a quiz game on British TV in the 70s and 80s where they'd take losing contestants and say "come and see what you could've won!" There'd be a speedboat, or a caravan (trailer) or a luxury car or some such... stuff people would have to either save or borrow to own in the real world. So not only did they lose the game, salt was rubbed in their wounded emotions on national TV too.

 

That's what RNG thinks of me.

They would probably have hated to have me on and lose; my reaction to something like this is "I lost. Okay, I could have won this... and been taxed for winning it. But how am I worse off than if I hadn't played?"

No tax

 

but sure, it's just the psychology of it that was sucky

 

That and winning a speedboat 70 miles from any place you could use it
