Surely someone else than me must've noticed that if one suspect easily clams they all do, and the townspeople don't and vice versa. And so on and so forth. I assume it's got something to do with the "same thing behind door 2" rule, no? It's useful to me in that I use my questions more economically when I notice what pattern the current case follows. Any thoughts on this?

I have a few Sleuth superstitions of my own. I'm sure they are just random chaos and just happen as often as I think they do simply because of the number of cases I have done. I'm not a statistics person. If you find a way to win on the ponies, let me know!

sorry run it by me why we can't burn people at the stake again...? :D

Hehe. Well, this I'm going after here ain't superstition, since I'm trying to verify it using statistics and maths. In this case it's called a "theory". ;P

Sure I'll let ya'll know when I've tried to figure out the ponies. :)

SS, because burning people at the stake is BAAAAD.

Besides, drawing and quartering them is MUCH more fun!

I don't think Tony Roma makes a steak sauce for that anyway. And who would you want to eat with a dry rub? (hope no one answers ;)

Can you check out the races first please?

Oh and by the way you don't have to be weak to be religious in fact to be a Christian you actually have to be quite strong - even in so-called Christian Countries!

I know you don't have to be weak. I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. That statement was supposed to be about acknowledging that you can't and will never comprehend everything around you. Even if you watch Discovery Channel.

Never mind. I can tell I'm still being hazy. I didn't mean any disrespect, flautim.

No Flautim and I realised that, don't worry. It's just what too many people think.

Come on - what how do the races work? How can we make our fortune before Ben realises what we're doing and changes the formula?

Perhaps we should give you a percentage of our winnings to figure it out for us!

Hehe. No don't. Please. o_O Then I would *have* to figure it out and that would spoil half the fun. -_-'
