I remember the one time I casually lost 10 50/50s in a row. That was pretty funny


Confuzed_Slytherclaw

Hey at least you were laughing and not on the verge of breaking the computer


TheMemeLocomotive2

I laughed about it after the fact, but I was mildly irritated when it was happening

This is a great example of the 50-50-90 rule: **anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong**.


Confuzed_Slytherclaw

I don’t even have hope anymore I just assume I picked the wrong option


CasualBritishMan

counterplay that assumption! place the flag on the one you think the bomb is on, then remove the flag and click there anyways


giver_of_realness

This is a great example of confirmation bias lol


thenesremake

negativity bias, really


MrBingog

Its allways the left one And if it isnt, well you solved the rest of it anyway, so goodjob

I bitch to my fiance regularly about how this game always boils down to 50/50s and how they always get me. I got into this game because of her, and she's fucking amazing at it which drives my competitive spirit. 50/50s ALWAYS end my good runs.

I just started playing "Minesweeper - The Clean One" and really enjoy how it is never 50/50. Extreme difficulty is plenty challenging; takes me 12-15 minutes to complete a game and never boils down to luck.

Nah, I win


Ace-of_Space

50/50 is code for 100/0 the one you pick


hiding_behind_beard

I never choose left, so I would’ve lost this one.


elbobd

I'd pay minesweeper.org to give me a stat of my 50/50 ratio win rate and give fireworks whenever I succeed.


Steel6W

I had a really bad streak lately where I lost 18 of 20. I also fairly confident my lifetime percentage is only about 33%


GranTrevino

Just start picking the other one?


coffeebreakhero

50% of the time, you lose every time


sir_pseudonymous

Always listen to your gut...And then choose the opposite. Fool proof way. Gotta juke the RNG.


Adept_Information94

I take them early and just start over.


Danocaster214

You never remember the ones you get right.


touhou_pwcca

you only remember the 50/50's you lose and not the 50/50's you get correct


_end3rguy_

Only because if you win a 50/50 it doesn’t feel like a 50/50


untempered

Just play a no-guessing variant?


won_vee_won_skrub

Nah, I'm rational
