    Scammer's profile link: BAS Pahy @BAS Pahy
    Explanation of the trade: https://www.sythe.org/threads/55-and-under-your-win-pahys-dicing-thread/
    How they scammed: Trying to make people think their odds are 55/100, infact they are 35/80

    I can't believe @Otter fell for this, doesnt this guy stake?

    Pretty carnival-ish logic, props to him for posting it - but I do believe its an attempt to trick / scam.

    In his title he says 55 and under your win -- making you think that you actually have 55% odds.

    His rules state

    -Roll 20 dice of 5

    Now the lowest you can get on one roll out of 5 is a 1, not a 0

    Therefore the range of numbers you can get is 20 at the lowest and 100 at the highest (hence your odds being 35 / 80). Most people don't understand that.... thats why I think this thread should be closed. As it is put next to other threads in which the range is actually 1-100 (hence him trying to trick people - specially with his thread title)

    Not saying you are scamming per se, just saying I don't think your thread should be allowed and want to leave it open to a scam attempt. You are intentionally trying to mislead people by using largely unknown feature the dice rolls that you cant roll a 0

    Just to preface this. There are instances where intentionally misleading people is against the rules, sometimes it isn't.

    If this is a case where it isn't, I concur with your statement

    After looking into this, it's not a scam. He's offering a donator game that just happens to have horrible odds. It is up to the bettor to decide if he wants to play or not.

    He states 1-55, which does not say 55x2. Therefore, this is fine.

    If you have any questions, contact me on Discord.
