Re: [FTC]:Finding weighted rings vs regular rings

Just to be clear. The probability of a weighted ring is 6/24 or .25. The probability of a weighted ring, given you have already found a weighted ring, is 5/23 or .2174. The probability of a pair of weighted rings is .25*.2174 or .0544.

That is, at the start of the game, there is a 5.44% chance that the first two rings are both weighted.
