Not coming at you, bro. Just having fun. However, you're still not copping under retail. If you do, I will be the first one to congratulate you.

I know but the the type of questions you'll get when you post a pic like that. There are still 20% if you about that life though

off the wtl talk broke these out the other day!!
questions you guys having issues side plate putting pressure on your foot? Not sure if breaking them in would help. But after an hour I wanted to burn the right shoe.

Oh lawd. The reason I sold all my elites. Went half size up AND a full size. Still had the right plate pressure and it only got worse over time it felt like. Tried changing the insoles too and still had the problem. Good luck! #teamwidefoot

You'll go through a period where you think the shoe is breaking in, but it's actually your foot breaking into the shoe. Then it only gets worse from there...
Edit: just like jhwang37, I sold one of my pair's of hero's because the pain was too much.

hey at the end of the day some people have more money in what they want to put it toward i mean some folk drive lux cars knowing it would be smarter to drive a Camry so i can care less.
yea i paid for 400 for mine but i moved a pair of kicks for over what i paid cause i knew i wasn't going to wear them since they been in my closet over a year.
personally i will pay a resell if its something i want, i can care less if i was luke warm on a shoe like a sport blue, or many other Jordan brand things. i mean if your savy with your shoes that bron up front money is really nothing son
Also, some people have more disposable income like no kids, a career, paid off car, and no kids, honestly i told my self i stop buy kicks if i had kids cause all that money could go to them. but that's me
To the dude getting into it with a know megatron user i will be saying congrats come sat bruh...... why pay or worry a about resell when you know you have your own advantage. then again i can care less about what he does his life.

The right shoe is flawless 10 for 10. Left shoe is a good 7.8 in my opinion.

@jayli it's early but think your nerd bubble is gonna burst. The "principle" of your math is flawed. Use your coin toss for the example. Just cuz you say 25% to lose doesn't automatically mean 75% to win. Can't just put addition/subtraction in AFTER running percentages. 2 coin tosses...4 possible outcomes. A win/lose for each flip. You're looking for 1 outcome? That's a 1/4 chance, so 25% period. No 100-25 ish. Since there is a finite number of possibilities (2-w or L) you stand a 1/4 chance to win or a 1/4 chance to lose 1 out of 4 flips.
As for the raffles...the only way you could approximate your % is if you knew the number of entries at each location. You can't apply blanket math to uneven scenarios. FTL has 237 entries, Champs 184, etc...you're % changes at each based on entries and you're 1/whatever # said store has. I see where're you're going and all but it just doesn't work. 80/20 win lose?? If a store has 100 entires means you have 20 tickets... Um... That's just straight percentages. Not to mention that I'm just talking chances of a one time selection...but what throws this whole thing off figuring probability is this...say you have 300 entries...but only 97 pairs. Well now you have a finite number of outcomes based total pair so that just complicates everything further. Basic math doesn't work...it's not linear like that.

SM knows whatsgood
make it an east coast west coast thing so you have to put in the work to find someone or find them at a sneaker show, just would make the release better, (ofc not cost effective in nike's eyes but for $250 we deserve it, & diff boxing like the GKs & 2 sets of laces imo)

You're right, 4 possible outcomes:
WW
WL
LW
LL
I'm not looking for 1 outcome, it's 1 outcome I'm looking to avoid, meaning 3 outcomes I'm looking for, or 75%. Same principle applies to my scenario. I mentioned 80/20 lose/win, not the other way around as obviously the odds are stacked against me for any one drawing. My assumptions could be wildly off, it's a guess. But even a 10% chance applied over 4 drawings means a 34% chance of winning at least 1. 5% chance over 4 = 18.5% chance of winning at least 1.

Agree! Was merely pointing out that dude is wrong. He also proved it with his posting of Wiki. And the random card sampling 1/2,538,769....those are more his chances at these raffles.
