Re: What would be the best limit to start at?

Still too lazy to look up my formula, but one program tweak later and as far as I can see it, the 95% confident mark (95% of the time, it's within 1% of EV for N trials) happens for N=~8800

I think your random number generator must have some "issues" if that's true.
The actual probability that if you flip a coin 8800 times, that the number of heads will be 4400 +/ 1% is only 65.7%.
