In one scenario you have a 6/30 chance of hitting Rare 1, a 6/30 chance of hitting Rare 2, and a 18/30 chance of hitting a pillar.

failed/incorrect scenario
every time the spinner picks up pillar/tower it will repick (up to 10 times?)
chriskang put it at 1.6% chance to win a pillar from spin consisting of 6/6/18 distro
but the math (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,590.msg5760#msg5760) used confuses the hell out of me

what i DO know based on my own experience grinding is that i am more likely to get fail spin from rare farm with 18 of 1 pillar type than those with 18 of different types
take it as you will

1) Time differences.
Even though it wouldn't stop people from having their farms longer, but having a larger amount of farms for a set amount of time will most likely only benefit some more than most.

those who put up farm will still put up farm and those who dont, well, dont
this idea or campaign if you will, does not change how farm is set up other than WHAT will be up for grabs
thats it

2) People will get used to this
To the best of my knowledge, T500 will be coming soon.

exactly why this is suggested, to give more people chance to get rares before t500 is in efffect

3)And every list looks better with more than two things

so i guess 6% chance* of getting a discord or sog or miracle or pharaoh or (12 other rares) is better than 50% chance of getting one of two rares for that period huh?
* - and that is if everyone has different set of rares for farm with a normalized distribution which is hardly the case

only thing I can think of is that you win less pillars/pendulums

it just decreases the chance of winning a pillar.

i'm sorry, i dont know anyone would want to farm pillars
my bad

"it just decreases the chance of winning a pillar"
^not a good thing apparently

yep, my bad
honestly i have never done this myself and thus i got it wrong
basically what this accomplish is that you can put up a farm deck for others indefinitely* while you grind (any other AI except T50) and only reconnect again to save the current state mostly not to hinder your own grinding while serving up farm for others

~FARM DECK~
Dates	Rares
10/02/2011~12/02/2011	TITAN / PULVERISER
14/02/2011~16/02/2011	STAFF / FAHRENHEIT
17/02/2011~19/02/2011	TRIDENT / SQUID
21/02/2011~23/02/2011	MORNING STAR / MIRACLE

03/03/2011~05/03/2011	LOBOTOMIZER / SoG
07/03/2011~09/03/2011	SoD / SoR
10/03/2011~12/03/2011	DISCORD / ARSENIC

there have been talks about making a concerted effort to make farm a bit better for everyone. there is an idea about reserving 1-2 hours on a certain day and time where everyone on T50 put up farm of some kind but there was nothing like what i had in mind
basically my idea is this; if you like to put up farm deck, it doesnt matter what type of farm decks you put up but what exact cards (2 types according to this here sticky (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,1091.0.html)) you could put up on a weekly* rotation
for example, starting from next week, everyone who likes to put up farm deck could do a DISCORD/ARSENIC farm

it can be a farm (non-biting) :-

Code: [Select]

4vl 4vl 4vl 4vl 4vl 4vl 52q 52q 52q 52q 52q 52q 744 744 744 778 778 778 7ac 7ac 7ac 7dg 7dg 7dg 7gk 7gk 7gk 7jo 7jo 7jo
or harm (biting) :-

Code: [Select]

6ts 6ts 6ts 6ts 6ts 6ts 6u5 6u5 6u5 6u5 6u5 6u5 710 710 710 710 710 710 71a 71a 71a 71a 71a 71a 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2
but if you put up farm, stay away from this kind of farm :-

Code: [Select]

4vl 4vl 4vl 4vl 4vl 4vl 52q 52q 52q 52q 52q 52q 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778 778why? because not speading the pillar/tower type will result in bad spins (you should know this by now if you are trully a T50er)

and the week after next, TITAN/PULVERIZER farm
the week after the week after next, STAFF/FAHRENHEIT farm
...you get the idea

i would like to know if anyone (and by anyone i mean those who are t50 materials i.e. constantly in t50, score of 200k++ etc) are interested in making synchronized farm deck as suggested
please vote and give your thoughts/comments on the matter
and for the haters, kindly bug off

* if a weekly rotation is too long (as it takes about 8 weeks to put up all rares on the rotation)
we can maybe do 3 days rotation i.e. monday-wednesday, thursday-saturday and only needing a month to do a full rotation of rares

there is a way to bypass this whole saving thing so that you can farm yourself and as i recall, it was not considered cheating :-

1) submit highscore with a farm deck
2) close internet connection
3) grind T50 offline with your grinder deck
4) ??
5) PROFIT*

* you'll need to connect and save your game state after all said and done though

After looking through this part of the forum, I noticed that most threads about strange mutations players had gotten were either dead or nonexistent. So, here we are.

you might want to get your eyes check because you missed this one thread here :-
Whats the weirdest thing YOUR creature has mutated into? (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,9766.0.html)
its on the first page even
there is really no need to start another thread

you mess with the wrong Jr. Member buddy, deep is anything but fake

As far as I know, a burrowed mutant Graboid with 'Hatch' will produce a burrowed unupgraded creature with original ability
proofs can be found in various posts in this here thread if you bother to look first
