Ethical question It links directly to the "win" page of their wheel-of-fire game. So, here are three questions: Is this cheating? Oh--the game is rigged (see below). So, if you decide this is cheating, then you may ask yourself whether it is ethical to cheat a rigged game?
And, when you're done with that, you will realize the purpose of the game is to collect email addresses and they will never send you any candy! Hope you gave a fake address!
The game is presented as a roulette-style wheel, with 1/3 of the circumference of the wheel marked "winner".
After 70 attempts, no winning result appears. The probability of 70 consecutive losses of a bet with 1-in-3 odds of winning is 4.7E-13. That is to say... There is around a 5-in-ten-trillion chance the game is not rigged. It's rigged.
Actually, this happened some years ago, where people went directly to the winners page and the company refused to honor all requests that came from it.
