Well one has better odds of a one day hunt than being struck by lightning then... Or maybe not, depending on variable #3.

Did you know there is a 1/12,000 chance of finding a pearl in an oyster you are eating?

Well in that perspective I guess we still have a chance to do VH within a day....

I see that you can usually get 4 hints for those townies solvable within two clues. So the probability should be 2/4 or 1/2 if they do not repeat themselves, but then, they do. Let's say there's a 50% chance that they do repeat, that gives you 1/4 chance of finding the townie within 2 clues. Multiple that number with 1/3750 = 1/15,000.

1/15,000. I think that's a fair estimation. In that case, I should start looking for that pearl in the oysters I eat :-)
