Money or prizes
No deposits, purchases, withdrawals, rewards, credits, tokens, or redeemable value exist.
Safety and interpretation
A target hit is not gambling advice.
The study describes controlled probability laws using fictional money and synthetic entrants. It does not identify a game to play or a strategy to follow.
Playable interface
Visitors cannot place wagers, choose stakes, influence outcomes, or create gambling accounts.
Commercial claims
The four Class C games are transparent models, not estimates or endorsements of named products.
Required reading
Gross payout ≠ net wealth.
- Every target hit is paired with spending before the hit.
- Unsuccessful entrants remain in all population denominators.
- More attempts can raise, lower, or barely change incidence depending on the tail.
- Higher RTP does not necessarily mean higher target-hit probability.
- Synthetic outcomes do not establish how real people behave.
