@Damo: What is the probability that four people whose names all begin with the letter "B" would sign up, consecutively?

Just for fun to put a number on it let's assume there are a pool of 25 players of which 4 begin with B.

The number of possible ordered groups of 15 = 15!*25C15 = 15!*25C10

The number with all 4 Bs is 15!21C11 = 15!21C10 but to have 4 consecutive Bs this reduces to 12*4!*11!21C10.

So, our probability is 12*4!*11!*21C10/15!25C10 =

12*24*12*13*12*11/15*14*13*12*25*24*23*22 =

12*12*11 / 15*14*25*23*22 = or about 0.06% or about 1676 to 1

However I think there are more B's in the pool than you account for.

As well as the four who signed up:

Bonatogether
BesharamSabi
Beancomb

Etc
