The probability of getting all 13 spades is exactly the same, as the probability of getting any other hand. However the first hand is more usefull than most, and more likely to make peoble accuse the dealer of not dealing random cards. |

Its like if you roll an 11 sided die, the chance of rolling 11 two times in a row is (1/11)*(1/11) |
However, in your second game, the chance of that player getting the MVP is 1/11
Just like every other player on your roster. |

Lookie here. IT. DOES. NOT. MATTER.
This orc got 6 vps. Whoop de doo. On my TT DE team, I had one blitzer pick up the first 5 vps. With the League Manager watching everytime. He became target #1 for everyone, since he had 50% of my skill points. Which worked for me, since the rest of the blitzers and Witches quickly caught up.
So, were my dice random? Yes. Were the odds slim? Yes. Does it happen? No... err... Yes.

No it's just a myth. I once had a player that got his second MVP before all other had one each but that was just once and I'm not sure I remember it correctly either. When I roll by myself I get actual random results (every player gets one MVP each). I mean, a player getting two MVP:s, that's like 1/121! |

Or my undead team, where 6/7 bh have regen'd, 6/7 SI have regen'd, but only 1/4 RIP came back. Conveniently, it was the 30k zombie who came back, not the 90k wight or the two 110k mummies. Not a good career choice to be a mummy on my undead squad! |

Well... do you dodge away into two enemy tackle zones with your BCs? Do your BCs always go for it thrice? Do your BCs block mummies with no assists?
If the answer is yes, you better create an all hobgob team! |

I don't think this random thing can be random at all. Last game a player of mine was ripped, apo failed AND HE GOT THE MVP! The client's fixed I tell you. |

I mean, if the dice rolls are random EVERY time, how random is that!? I thought JavaBowl had random randomness, not deterministic randomness. That client has been tampered with for sure. |
