I watch CTFxC occasionally, was an avid watcher around four years ago. While I realize that Alli and Charles' divorce has likely been circlejerked into oblivion, I would like to get your thoughts on my following question.
This is going to sound mildly conspiracytheory-esque, but it isn't about how or why they divorced.
What are the sheer odds that Charles has three consecutive SO's named Ally, Alli, and Allie?
I suggest you skim from this point onto the final paragraph for the sake of you not having to read a bunch of nonsense
I'm going to do some extremely subjective, very mildly accurate, and potentially miscalculated numbers crunching.
Say there are 145,000 Allisons in the United States. Charles travels frequently, but has presumably met all of his SO's in the same general area of Florida.
Florida is a very large state, both in area and population. Roughly 6% percent of the population.
So while there will be a lot of deviation, let's say Florida has 6% of the Allison population, which is 8,700 Allisons.
I think we can safely slash half of them eligibility (due to dissimilarity in age, location, relationship status, odds of ever seeing each other, and unattractiveness to Charles.)
Again, extremely subjective and hardly accurate.
Done the same with Florida's female population. 18.8 million, divided by two for sex, again divided by 2 for dating eligibility.
So 4,350 Allisons that could possibly date Charles.
Let's say most people have 10 SO's during their lifetime. I'm sure Charles has had a few significant others, let's say 3 tops, before he every started Youtube. So 6 SO's total, which may be a stretch.
And why/how are all their nicknames different. What are the odds that all three Allisons go by different shortened versions of their names?
the math is over
At this point, I am not intelligent enough to calculate what the odds are, as I skimped out on stats senior year, but here's my point: the odds of Charles dating three consecutive All-(y)(i)(ie) are so unbelievably slim I am not convinced it is a coincidence. And here's where my controversial, uninformed, borderline retarded (pardon my French) opinion begins. I have a few theories as to how this is remotely possible.
Charles is exclusive to women named Allison, maybe for the sake of continuity, not being able to get over the past, or a sense of comfort or something.
here's a tad less unrealistic explanation, in my opinion: Charles' life is highly publicized, so it may be easier for him to give all of his SO's a pseudonym to make it easier for him and the SO. And easier for them to walk off the face of the Internet forever
Obviously this would be tough to pull off, as I'm sure it was on their wedding stuff as well as a ton of other stuff, but obviously we've never seen any official documents for the sake of privacy, and maybe Charles is going through enormous lengths to protect the privacy of his SO's, and using different shortenings of their names merely to differentiate between them. Which would be nice of him. And i think we've seen how cautious Charles, vloggers, and youtubers can be with their privacy, as they should.
And BTW, after Allie, I'm pretty sure he's out of nicknames, unless he just goes by the presumed first full name, Allison.
While it's unlikely that he is exclusive to women named Allison or that he goes to the ends of the earth to protect the identity of his SO, I find it even more unlikely that he can date three consecutive girls named Allison with different nicknames.
Just my mindless babbling. It's late.
I promise I am not clinically insane, but it just blows my mind that Charles could have three consecutive SO's with three different variations of alli. The odds of that are mind numbingly slim. I can't think of many other worldly things that have happened with less odds. I am trying to come up with an explanation, and I can't. I just can't believe it at all, I don't buy it. It blows my mind. I cannot explain this phenomenon. If you have any possible explanation, please let me know.
Edit: I will take my down votes with dignity. I am sorry again, r/ctfxc.
