Right but the way I took the meme was that you would roll until you get a 1, then deciding the next roll is the "real" one.
brian@lemmy.ca The die doesn't know it just rolled a 1. History doesn't matter to it.
That's what the meme says, but probability doesn't work that way. If you want the result from a roll, what you've roller before has no bearing on the result from this roll. Thus the chance for a single d20 roll is always 1/20, or 5%.
