Randomness can not be forced, it must be felt. you much channel the ranfom with utmost care, much like arcane energies, the random fluctuates and like a tide ebbs and flows. Feel the random, be the random.
Mr. Random
To be random is not to be a constant non sequitur. To be random, one must follow every pattern, and none. True chaos is a picture of order as it’s pattern is the reverse of order. To be random, one must use every tangent as a pathway, every reference as an offshoot, every typo as a lead in to a second and fourth reference to a story that has no relevancy to the current plot of any conversation! To be random is to divert attention. To push it further away then before. If a definition can push a thread of a web into an abyss, then it shall be so.

even a random clock is right…uh…somewhere between 1 and 86,400 times a day. maybe.
Cattus
Nope – a random clock will likely be incorrect all the time. Assuming we are talking about the clock being totally random every second of the day – that’s 86,400 random times (or instances) per day. Therefore a clock that is random every second has a 1 in 86,400 chance of being correct any given second of the day, or a 1 in 237 chance of being correct once per year.
Mr. Random
Well, no. It has a greater chance than that. Specifically 1-((1/86400)^86400) each day. Which equals… Something that is very nearly equal to one. So, yes. A random clock is very likely to be right at least once a day.
Mr. Random
My input was wrong. 1-((86399/86400)^86400). It equals. 63.21235118% still pretty likely though.
Math was wrong there, that’s 1 in 7464960000 because the clock picks the random number at random times, so it has a 1/86400 chance of being right 1/86400 times. Two random odds multiply.
Mr. Random
Actually, my second attempt is correct, because we’re assuming it changes every second. If you assume it changes every random number of seconds, it actually makes more sense to use a second by second model, stating that the number was the exact same as the last one. Using a random interval model actually makes it harder to predict, as we’d need formula for exactly when it would randomly change. For instance, it would have a Uniform chance of changing for every second.
By this I mean there is an equal chance of the random clock staying on the same second for the entire day, as there is for it staying on the same second for exactly twenty three seconds.
The thing is, that when you collect all of these possibilities, you still have to account for what second the clock shows, and what second it actually is.
This means that no matter what happens, there are always 86399 seconds that do not match up with what the true time is. And the chance of it still not hitting that second is going to be repeated 86400. Once for every second of the day.
My point is, that it doesn’t matter if the clock changes at random intervals.
The chance of any one second getting hit twice in a row is 1 in 7464960000, but since the actual time changes, there’s still a 1/86400 chance that it is correct.
The probability it’s right AT LEAST once, is going to be 63.212%
Trust me on this.
I know math.

Actually, “you” is the result of some sadistic asshole who put THREE vowels next to each other. You’re looking for the people behind “each”, who are Germans.
Actually, pneumonia’s from a Greco-Roman root, IIRC, but it came to England from France. BLAME THE FRENCH!
