If they do any more, flag or ping please

@Rubio Ok! I saw you reverting and thought 'oh, I can help out'.
Of course, I can't undelete, since I'm not a trusted user yet (only halfway and a bit)

@GarethMcCaughan I disagree with your results!
 
I could very well be wrong.
AFK for a while now, though, sorry.
 
I didn't even quite answer the question, but I think you can't be right

I agree that my result looks fishy -- if you call with probability about sqrt(n) then we expect about sqrt(n) callers on average and surely the std dev is only about sqrt(sqrt(n)) and almost always no one wins. So very likely I have an algebra error.
really AFK now, though.
