It makes sense if you don't really think about it.

Either switch or ask the goat.

I pick door 1.

I'm too busy discussing this BLUNDER

Just switch doors, mate.

Have sex with the goat.

I take the goat

is this that GOAT game I keep hearing about?

(you)

The three prisoners problem is the exact same thing but I think it's easier to understand.

When you wait for ghostbusters 3 and get a steaming goat turd instead.

That's gay

You people are so silly sometimes

Before you are one hundred thousand doors. Behind one of them is the prize you seek, video games.

You select one at random. Before revealing what's behind your door, the man in charge, knowing where the video games are, opens 99,998 of the other doors, leaving closed only your door and one other.

Do you switch, or do you stay with your initial selection?

Your gut reaction might be to switch, but in this case, that would be wrong, because there are actually no video games in this thread at all.

>pick from one of three
>after picking, one is eliminated
>the right door is never eliminated
>by choosing to switch doors, you're ALWAYS changing the outcome, if you were right the first time you're now wrong and vice versa
>therefore if you choose to switch, two doors initially lead to the prize and only one leads to a loss

TL:DR choosing to switch inverts the outcome of the first choice effectively making 2 of the 3 doors winning doors.

by switching you have 2/3rds of a chance to get the right door because at first you have 2/3rds of a chance of getting the wrong door. therefore, as the first wrong door is opened for you, by switching you essentially reverse the probability. choosing the wrong door first and then switching means that you will get the proper door, but getting the right door and switching will get you the wrong door. also not video games faggot.

Why have you not bought a lottery ticket user? You have a 50% chance of winning!

fuck off

How is that the same?
