Similar to when I take a gallentean fleet of 40 against 1-2 wartargets. You see my friend, the Caldari are a very formative enemy and I risk losing the entire fleet. As ECM is a similar chance based mechanic, there is always the chance of survival.
Awesome character, awesome name! Hairdo is pretty good too.
Wondering about the etymology of the name..
X Gallentius in the name and hair
Deen Wispa in the name (and possibly the sunnies? been a while since I saw the portrait)
Where does the 1-st and Bender come from? |

Basic stats - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_distribution
If you flip it around, try to find the probability of 0 successes, and subtract that from 1. |

Thing is, the Geometric Distribution is effectively a subset of Bernoulli's.
"The probability distribution of the number of X Bernoulli trials needed to get one success"
Pretty much the same thing, and for the given question the Geometric distribution is easier to calculate. However, I tend to use Bernoulli's because I can look at the distribution and see things like "20% of the time, I'll have 2 successes which means I'll be able to try and jam a different target with my free jammer". |

Be honest. You just wanted to throw in those words so you can sound smarter than the rest of us.
I thought I kept my language pretty plain and to the point... :(
I actually do this pretty much every time I am sizing up a target with ECM drones or a griffin. |

Also, I thought that a large percentage of eve players were Computer Science guys, and this is first year stats. |
