It’s nothing compared to his Dethiness in other threads, but since the thread is active I may as well point out some recent flabbergasting stupidity. I set up a hypothetical in the polls thread. Pretty simple, have $1 million, and you can choose to take it or roll a die labelled 0-9, multiply it by $1 million and take it. i.e a 10% chance of losing it all for a good chance of making bank. Simple, right? Not for Deth
