You changed the outcome by observing it!

What if the dice was rolled inside a box, where no observer could see it's result?


But the paint of the dots would cause micro shifts in the gravitational field, thus causing everyone effected to because indirected observers, the same way a decomposing dead cat would cause micro shifts in the gravitational field.

The rolls are considered independent events. Each time you roll the dice, you have an equal probability of 1/6, that you will roll a 6 (or any other number).
The probability that the dice is a 6, when I'm looking at the dice and it says 6, mathematically speaking, is retarded. It's not really a probability anymore, in the sense that you are talking about, Cobra. It is the outcome of an experiment, and the only probability comes from the probability that your eye is seeing something wrong, or the probability that there is dust on the dice, etc. It is the realization of the earlier probability.

I can understand what you're saying.

Okay, getting away from all the evolution/god issues here, let me ask a simple math question - please answer it as only a math question, not as anything else:

If I roll a dice, mathematically speaking how often should I roll a 6?
About 1 in 6 times right? Around 16.67% of the time?

So if I get a 6 on the first roll, does that change the mathematical odds that rolling a 6 should occur?
