The Master of Disguise

I was 4/13 overall—which, especially considering the odds for each round were 1/5, I'm quite happy with! ^^ This was a lot of fun; thanks for hosting!
 
I got none of them right, and I just needed 1 gg to afford the spectral preserves... T_T
You really did fool me, Master of Disguise. Well played.
Here's to hoping for a community fave somewhere. 🙏
That was me before this round. I’d gotten none of them right and needed 1 gg to afford a ghastly egg.
 
I’m pretty happy with finishing at 3/13! I think it could have been much worse, and I ended up ahead! Thanks for hosting! 🎉✨

Also, here were my guesses!
Jesus Christ your rounds are ordered so well I just type the most random **** as the thread title and let Chris deal with it

I’m the same as S.J., these are my Witch’s Quest submissions from the Fair for context lmao

Glad I skipped this one. Would have gotten it wrong again 😂
 
Finally got another one correct and finish 2/13 (or 2/11 if I don't include the 2 rounds I forgot to enter). Nice to finish with a win.

Thank you, Nan and Vic.

anyone else not get a single one right? 🥲 (i missed a round because i forgot to enter but I still would have been wrong if i submitted my guess lol)
 
I got one right, with Goldie, who has been a villager of mine since I started playing new leaf when it first came out. If I could get any right I’m glad it was that one 😊
 
Ended on an 10 incorrect guesses streak. Went from 2/3 to 2/13 in a hurry. 😔

It is a shame, since my strategy for round 8 onward was to just pick the character in the 4 slot, since if things are equally random (20% chance of picking a card), the odds that 4 is not picked would get lower with each successive round. It's been a few years, but I'm pretty sure you're able to use a Bernoulli trial for this to calculate the odds (where the 4th card is a success, the rest are failures). So the odds of there being a character in the 4 slot chosen once in 6 tries (39.3%) is higher than a character in the 4 slot being chosen no times in 6 tries (26.2%). Unfortunately, I got owned since the cards hate probability and Lionel was the only 4 character who got picked.
 
I ended up with 3/13 which was actually better than my test run where I only got 1/13 (I used a rng and guessed numbers, I know it had no effect but it felt good to practice. )
 
I got 3 right, and missed the first round, so 3/12 is alright by me. I honestly expected more but now I know for the future, if I pick my favorite, it's probably going to lose lmao
 
This has been a very humbling experience. I now know that my gut feeling is absolute trash. Got 2/13 - I only played every other day though because I was sad 😂
