But events that have been set up in the past, such as not storing necessary data files on random pages. Chaos would have to be an omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent entity. Besides, wouldn't increasing chances contradict the definition of chaos? Chaos is the Second Law of Thermodynamics, disorder, and breaking down. Increasing odds of something unlikely to occur would appear to be more of an orderly ability.
And here lies the influence of
harmonic (EDIT: That moment when harmoinc) chaos. All my Lords of Chaos, despite being unable to use harmonic chaos (other than Soren and Svár) have ambient harmonic chaos about them. Harmonic chaos is all about chaos in a bit more logical manner--for example, flipping the likeliness of events. And something like what you mentioned may not be affected by the ambient magic, but other things could still be--like happening to meet someone who knows something you need, or certain random events changing in such a way that they coincide with each other.
Like, for example, you may be playing a dance game, and a misthrown ball may fly towards you, causing you to dodge in such a way that you hit the right buttons where you may have not hit them before. Several factors could have been influenced here, like the misthrowing of the ball or your dodging reflexes.
