You cannot calculate it statistically but you can calculate it probabilitally, of course unless you have got the Patchou's statistics since the beginning of the contest.

RE: The Messenger Plus! 2009 Contest
hello. i have a question... yesterday, when the contest began, my friend and i clicked on each other's referral link. later i won something, and after i sent my details he won too, by referral. then he sent his details too for the prize, and continued playing, but i went to bed. this morning i woke up and that red star said i had one a prize too. so i sent my request again, but later found out that my friend hadn't won a prize again during the night, as i thought...
i'm pretty sure no one else clicked my referral link and started playing, so it must have been because of my firend's prize, already won by referral. does this mean our prizes could be annuled or something?
just asking because i am not interested in cheating here, just want to play the game and win something if possible.
someone please answer. thanks.

But my calculation doesn't reflect your results:

769x703/250x5/3600=3.003 hours :S

How is your calculation?

No, they wouldn't... The ref links were not valid and not recorded until the official start of the contest...

So, in fact, those testers who had a ref link somewhere actually have less chances now!!!!

Because if people clicked on it before the start of the contest, they would simply be redirected to the download page. This means that the tester would have lost a potential 'client' because those who clicked that link would already have Plus! downloaded and wouldn't download it again (during the contest)...

I remember clicking a few of these links, all of which never redirected (based on the url), but if you say they didn't count then okay i suppose, i still thinks its dodgy though.
...there used to be a signature here :)
