Thanks, I'll check it out!

Thanks. BTW, doesn't the amount of entries affect the odds? There were 700 entries.

This question is killing me because I'm terrible in math. It has to do with my question before... Nine categories 5 possible winners for each category How many possible combinations are there?

I wasn't asking who the winners were...I know the results. I watched the show. What I am asking is, since I got 8/9 correct-what were the odds of predicting that many correct? -And- How many possible combinations could there have been?

I entered a local newspaper contest where you have to predict the Oscar winners and whoever gets the most correct answers wins. So, my question is this: The categories were: Best Actor Best Actress Supporting Actor Supporting Actress Animated Film Director Best Picture Best Adapted Screenplay Best Original Screenplay so theres 9 categories with 5 nominees in each category. What are the chances of someone getting all 9 correct, stastistically speaking? I got 8/9 correct. There were 700 people who entered the contest. What are the odds that I would get this many right? The winner gets free movie tix for a year!

Okay guys, I have a question regarding posting here and (please don't thrash me if I should have posed this question somewhere else!) So here goes....this is my 3rd or 4th post and it says I have 0 posts. I'm just curious what the deal is with that? Do i not exist here? Or do i exist here, but only in my imagination?
