Morse Runner is a Windows-based contest simulator developed by Alex Shovkoplyas, VE3NEA. Using Wineskin, it has been successfully and seamlessly run under OSX, and made available here for download. Sure, you could use Wineskin to do this yourself (and save me some bandwidth), or you can pull the ready-made dmg from here.

As Vikram rises to stardom, he becomes increasingly self-centered, neglecting Sona and eventually cheating on her with his co-star
We have all heard the phrase, "It was just dumb luck." But what if we could quantify that statement? What if, instead of shrugging our shoulders at a random win or an unexpected loss, we could assign it a precise mathematical value? index of luck by chance
Recognizing the type of luck helps you respond: protect, amplify, or replicate it where possible. As Vikram rises to stardom, he becomes increasingly
If a coin is fair (p=0.5), the Index of Luck for "5 heads in a row" looks high, but it is perfectly normal over a long sequence. The index resets with every independent trial. The probability of the 6th flip being heads is still 50%, regardless of an index of 5. If a coin is fair (p=0
| Field | Luck index high (e.g., 0.8) means | Luck index low (e.g., 0.2) means | |--------|--------------------------------|--------------------------------| | Investing | Returns mostly random; indexing beats stock picking | Skill matters; active management may work | | Medicine | Most positive trial results false positives | Real treatment effects dominate | | Hiring | Who gets promoted is nearly random | Performance reviews reflect ability |
The Index of Luck by Chance (ILC) represents a conceptual framework in probability theory and behavioral economics. It quantifies the degree to which an outcome is influenced by random variance versus skill or systemic factors.
Confirmed working on: El Capitan, Mavericks, Sierra, High Sierra, & Mojave
MANY reports that it DOES NOT work on Catalina. It is very unlikely that it will work under Catalina in the near future, as it would require some pretty hefty development on Wine (they're working on it). The only other option I see is for some nice macOS developer to take the original code (it's open source!) and re-write it to run natively on 64bit macOS (go ask any developer, this is a lot of work). Since Xcode is now free if you're running Catalina, I'm happy to give it a try... when I can afford to buy a system that can run Catalina :)
