What are the chances for getting weird things from Peach's turnips?

[Proverbs]

What are the odds? I think I'm getting them more than I should be. The other night within like three hours I got like four bombs, at least two beam swords, at least two Mr. Saturns, and around four death turnips. I wasn't fishing for them but just got those whenever I used Peach (which wasn't in all of the battles during that time, probably less than half, if not one fourth). In the same match I got two bombs in a row and in one match I got a beam sword, the match ended, and at the beginning of the next match I got a beam sword as well. Another match I got a death turnip, missed with it, and immediately got another one (hit with that one XD).

The same trend seems to continue with me. Am I just really good at getting strange things from Peach or is this normal?

I think each non-turnip item and stitchfaces have a 1/600 chance of being pulled.

not 100% on tht tho.

 

[Proverbs]

Then I'm definitely getting things WAYYYY too often and that happens regularly to me. This isn't just one night, this just happens to me whenever I play Peach.

If that's the case then I would have to have pulled 7200 turnips (1/600 for each non turnip item and stitch face and there were 12 total if you look at my previous post, so 600 * 12) in 45 minutes (because I played her about 1/4 of the matches in three hours, and 3/4 hours is 45 minutes). Let's say it takes about one full second to pick up and discard a turnip. That means 7200 seconds would need to be the same amount of seconds in 45 minutes. As it is, 7200 seconds is really 120 minutes or 2 whole hours. Clearly that doesn't work out.

And that would be based off the assumption that I literally sat there and just picked up and threw turnips for two hours straight, disregarding the time it took to end matches and the fact that I wasn't just spamming turnips the whole time. That means I probably pulled one fourth of the amount of turnips possible in 45 minutes, which would be 675 turnips when I would have needed to pull 7200 turnips, so I pulled 3 turnips for every 32 that I should have pulled to keep the probability rate listed above accurate (45 minutes x 60 seconds/minute=2700 seconds X 1 turnip/second = 2700 turnips. I drew 1 fourth of those so 2700 turnips/4 is 675 turnips that I would have drawn).

Even then, I don't think I sat and picked turnips up for a fourth of each match, but I'm just trying to show you the probablity of it if I were. So chances are, I picked up even less than 675.

Wow, either that probablity rate is off, or my Peach is amazing.

Btw I was assuming you were referring to Melee's Peach. Brawl Peach, idk.

 

[Proverbs]

Well...this is the Melee board for Peach. Who plays Brawl anyway? z_z;;

It depends on if you're gay or not.

Seriously, look at me and Xelic.

 

[Proverbs]

...yeah I'm not even going to touch that one.

 

[Queen]

Why not? We're fun.

 

[Proverbs]

Why not what? <.<;;

 

[Morrigan]

Why not what what Proverbs gay what?

 

[Proverbs]

--; Yeah, converting people to sexual orientations doesn't quite work. Not only that but I disagree with the very nature of homosexuality in that it violates it--nature, that is.

Basically, I believe homosexuality is wrong. That, and I'm a Christian. That and I like girls.

 

[Morrigan]

Lol, this went TOTALLY offtopic.

From Peach's turnips to homosexuality.

 

[Proverbs]

^Yeah, so does anyone have a definite answer? Or is the probability unknown? And from just personal experience do you think I'm getting more nonturnip items/stitchface turnips than I should?

 

[Morrigan]

It's just a matter of luck actually. So you had been luckier.

The stitchface has a 1/58 chance of getting out, dunno about the other items.

 

[Proverbs]

Thanks.
