Colonialize Sucess = 60%

[Wizzington]

Computer random number generators are not actually random, and its pretty common to see clustered results.

If you were to do the 60% chance say ~200 times you'd end up with close to 60% successes, just that you'd had more strings of multiple fails / successes in a row than you would get on average if it was actually random.

Yes, it depends on the timeframe considered for those 200 tries...

Well, yes. I'm assuming at least a minute+ intervals between the tries. The point is just that computer randomizers cause clustered results but even out over time. If you were to say, do the 200 tries on the same computer cycle, then you'd get something altogether different.
