3 glacier gardens from 42 large gift boxes opened?

[DeletedUser6007]

really devs? with 25% chance for garden for every gift opened? even with RNG god in bad mood this is near to impossible. but i have a strange feeling i will not be only one with this result, so screwed players fell free to fill this topic.

You are not alone ... look at the probability thread

Well, it's not nearly as egregious, but I got 8 large boxes and didn't get any glacier gardens.

EDIT: Finished quest #98 and got to try again, got one on try #9!

So, 11.1% chance with the large box?

I missed it on 4 tries with my elves, but with my humans , I misclicked on the 90 point box and got it on the first try. Randomness is random?

Randomness is random?

It is indeed
I worked in a casino for years, and while it does suck getting below expected results, it happens. A lot. Just about as much as getting Above average results...imagine that lol.
The first building I went for was the Snowy Charming Tree, and I wanted 4 of them. took me 6 boxes to get all 4-- I could have made a thread about that, but that's just mean.
The chances of me getting such a good result are
0.2197265625%

EDIT: In case you are wondering @Synaka, the chance of you doing that badly is 0.3% which is very low, but you can expect 3 out of every 1,000 players to do just as poorly.

I opened 4 large boxes and didn't get any Glacier Gardens. Then I opened 1 medium box and got a garden. A few hours later I thought I should try my luck again and I opened 1 small box and got my second garden!


This is all about luck

I opened 4 large boxes and got it twice! Actually was hoping more for KP but that is the way it goes sometimes.

This happened to me with the Frozen Father tree. I needed four and got four in something like six or seven boxes. Then some other day I had to use 10 boxes for just one of the items I wanted. The odds will definitely go in your favour sometimes and other times not at all.
