::edit:: Turbovolver has pointed out that Stoofer's 1st Law is actually something else, so I have renamed this law Stoofer's 2nd Law.
You'd have to have the mind of Hitler or something to think that kind of law up!Mr Stoofer wrote:Stoofer's Law states:

It is OK that I say this, right Mr. Stoofer? I mean it's already sort of public knowledge when you posted it up in our game. If not, sorry
As one can see in the finally concluded Mini 257, this is true even when Stoofer is scum.Turbovolver wrote:Oh, but there is. Let's bring up another of Stoofer's Laws, if I may:

Thanks - be sure to check out the even more awesome game starting soon.Turbovolver wrote:Jeff Probst wrote:If the game is still continuing, then I'd advise you leaving discussion at that post, and picking up conversation after the game has ended.
Your name is awesome.

Yea, sorry I didn't see that earlier, or I would have proved you wrong earlier.Stewie wrote:I guess the stoofer equation is:
P = 1 - 1/n
Where P is the probability of a vote, and n is number of posts.
(waits for someone to make a thread with a vote on the first post to screw me over)
