Noooo, stop it! It should show 50/50 results if there was absolutely nothing in it, or a variance of say, 10-15% would be acceptable but this is very odd.

Kathyis6incheshigh · 08/05/2009 17:22

There could be selection bias - people being more likely to post if it gets it right.

imaginewittynamehere · 08/05/2009 17:24

wrong dd1
right dd2

Kathyis6incheshigh · 08/05/2009 17:24

you could eliminate that by getting people to sign in before trying it out and then promise to post their results no matter if it came out right or wrong.

LadyPinkofPinkerton · 08/05/2009 17:24

Its true that there could be a selection bias; however, statistically, for as many people who would post to prove the chart correct there are as many who would want to prove it incorrect. MN is nothing if not diverse!

Also, there are several different charts of this nature floating around which give very different results but it was this one in particular that I was curious about as it was right for all my friends and the few celebs I tried it on.
