RC5 odds?

[Shy]

Today I was checking my RC5 stats. They've been a little lower than usual lately since my 1ghz box was down for about a week. Imagine my surprise when I see:

The odds are 1 in a zillion-trillion that this participant will find the key before anyone else does.

A "zillion-trillion"!!! Amazing!! I didn't even know that was a real number! 😀

Anyone else have rediculous odds of winning?

P.S. This is my 200th post! Senior Member! Woohoo!

Actually, I guess this post makes me a Senior Member.

Still, I'm pleased =)

They only give those odds when stats are updating, I think (it's been awhile since i've looked)

They give those odds when updating and also on days when they didn't recieve any work units from you.

Oh, and congratulations on making Senior Member status 😀 By the way, are you on the AnandTech team? I don't remember seeing your name in here before (my apologies if I'm just being unobservant) but you're welcome to join if you want! 🙂

Hey, cool, a jhu guy 🙂 One o' my friends is going there.....you don't by chance know Sam Phillips, do you? (Probably not, he's somewhat eccentric at times😉 ).

I have no friends =)

On a more serious note, nope, I don't know him. There are 4,000 kids there! And I'm only a sophomore!

What year is he anyways? Maybe I'll hunt him down in the fall, leave threatening notes on his door like, &quot;I know what you did last summer&quot; or &quot;Your friend on AT gave me your social security number&quot;
