The argument in officer chat was about context more than math.
Here is math though. :ugeek:
Set size is equal to a raid of twenty five players and the subset doesn't matter but I'll use 7 players being chased in an attempt.
For all integer n > 0, n! = n·(n-1)!
((nPr1:r7)^-1)*100
n = 25
r = 1 to 7
Being followed once = 4.00000000%
Being followed twice IN A ROW = 0.16000000%
Being followed three times IN A ROW = 0.00640000%
Being followed four times IN A ROW = 0.00025600%
Being followed five times IN A ROW = 0.00001024%
Being followed six times IN A ROW = 0.00000041%
Being followed seven times IN A ROW = 0.00000002%
Is the respective probability of being selected in a row in an attempt. Otherwise it is just 4%.
