User blog:Toon Ganondorf/Series 9 Sweepstake with all robots allocated

This is not an official sweepstake.

This is to prove a point only.

If you win here but not in the actual crowd, you should blame the "but it worked fine last year" crowd who are likely still complaining about how the printed encyclopaedia is going out of fashion.

Model
27 Users signed up, meaning that all heats are allocated 5 users, with Heats 1 and 5 being allocated 6. This means that each heat has 2-3 robots selected at random and placed in the pool.

If a sweepstake robot is eliminated and a pool robot progresses, the users without sweepstake robots left go into a randomised pool to be allocated pool robots.

Draw
Unfortunately, because the Series 9 Sweepstake only three users into Heat A, I had to redo the draw.

Heat A
Randomly allocated users to Heat A
 * Combatwombat555:
 * CaliforniaKingsnake:
 * Rammingspeed:
 * OneTwoFour:
 * Jimlaad43:
 * Diotoir the son of nemesis:

DRAW
 * Combatwombat555: Sabretooth
 * CaliforniaKingsnake: Aftershock
 * Rammingspeed: Jellyfish
 * OneTwoFour: Crank-E
 * Jimlaad43: Nuts 2
 * Diotoir the son of nemesis: Terrorhurtz
 * POOL: Rapid, TMHWK

Round 1:
 * Jimlaad43 (Nuts 2), Rammingspeed (Jellyfish), OneTwoFour (Crank-E) are eliminated, along with TMHWK in the pool.
 * Jimlaad43 gets the randomised second choice, is now allocated Rapid. RS and OTF are now eliminated.

Round 2:
 * Rapid (Jimlaad) forfeits, reinstating Jellyfish (Rammingspeed).

End of episode:
 * CaliforniaKingsnake (Aftershock) wins the heat.

''Now before you ask, what if Rammingspeed had been allocated to Rapid instead, leaving Jellyfish unallocated? Well A) it doesn't matter because I knew Jellyfish was reinstated and could easily hit "re-randomise". And B) there was only a 33% chance of that happening.''

''Hmm. 33%. That number sounds familiar. Oh wait that's right, that's the same percentage that the current sweepstake model has of having no winner. Which is the larger evil?''
