I am beyond ecstatic y'all!!!!!
I can't wait for November 4th!
Oh my, that signature haha - if it isn't the truth though.
I was non-stop fishing for months continuously for the Work Boot around COVID time, and I've gotten through so much stages:
1. Went into this thinking what else can be worse than the Living Hat (... soon to realize, this)
2. A bit concerned but hopeful, resolute because low probability means there will always be a chance
3. Desperately digging through the source code to make sure the wiki number is correct (It is, I miscalculated initially which caused even more skepticism, but I corrected myself later)
3.5 Desperately checking if there's any bugs in the RNG (I couldn't figure it out if there were any)
4. Creating an Excel sheet detailing which items I fished up and see if the empirical probability matched with the theoretical probability (it did close enough unfortunately... so have a reasonable belief that there shouldn't be any bugs)
5. Give up on all reasons and methodologies and just keep fishing, because any time wasted NOT fishing, is any time away from Work Boots
5.5 Getting triggered everytime I fished up a Boot, but it's
never the Work Boot (This was all the boots I fished up before I called quits)

6. Have to finally admit defeat and just have to move on to better things - to this day I cannot confirm if it is actually possible, I know it theoretically is...
I think even if one realizes how low the 0.008% probability is, it is
still being underestimated because we are not factoring how much time it takes to get one try at that probability. I'm sooooo glad those days are over lol.
