Thanksgiving?

Featured Replies

There's a chance, but, there are 365 days in a year. 366 in this year to compensate for the fact that mother nature can be a troll at times.

Today, November the 21st is the 326th day in the year, which means that there are 365-326 = 39 Days Remaining in the year. Now, why is this important, well.

We are sort of speculating a borderline Release by the end of the year. That most likely won't happen however, and we must all truly leave some space for disappointment. So, to compensate for our sadden state of mind, we will now add the rest 365 days of next year, while you simultaneously cringe at the fact that the chance threshold is widened.

So. 39 + 365, is equivalent to 404 days. So, we essentially have 404 days worth of waiting until the end of next year which actually, seems like a more plausible release date, when compared to the end of this year.

Now, unfortunately you have placed yourself in a grave, seeing that Thanksgiving Day is only, well, one day. And like all days it is 24 hours, roughly, but that's not important.

So, although I cannot recall doing Chance, ever, in mathematics, but let's get the brain to work here.

There is a 1 in 404 day chance, that the Triple 7 will be released on thanksgiving.

(1/404)*100/1 = 0.25%, or 2.5 ×10-1 chance of being released on Thanksgiving day.

 

However, there is also a 403/404 or a 99.75% chance that it will be released on any other day besides thanksgiving, so, you can look out for that day, like the rest of us and stop refreshing the page.

 

 

So, basically, to answer your question.

Maybe.

Thanks,

 

After reading that response, I can only imagine what your fuel calculations must look like.
