Mog Bonanza Number

Decided against the /random thing for my numbers this year, opting for higher odds of winning (also last year it was kinda rigged against PS2 users who chose random numbers - lolps2. I'm not a PS2 user of course, but picking your own numbers lowers the chance of it being rigged against you, unless SE just doesn't like you personally ). So here's my approach this year:

Strategy:
I have 4 characters to buy marbles with - Daleven, Elvani, Talira, Alamiz
Fifth digits on each character: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0
Fourth digits: Daleven all 4's, Elvani 1's, Talira: 3's, Alamiz: 5's (Used DALE - D is 4th letter in alphabet, A 1st, L 12th, 1+2=3, E is 5th)
Digits 1-3 on each character: 472 (chosen by in-game /random)

Results:

Daleven 47241 47242 47243 47244 47245 47246 47247 47248 47249 47240

Elvani 47211 47212 47213 47214 47215 47216 47217 47218 47219 47210

Talira 47231 47232 47233 47234 47235 47236 47237 47238 47239 47230

Alamiz 47251 47252 47253 47254 47255 47256 47257 47258 47259 47250

Resulting odds:
Rank 5: 100% of 1 win on each character
Rank 4: 40%
Rank 3: 10% chance *if* 4th digit matched, so 0.4*0.1=4% chance
Rank 2: 10% chance *if* 3rd digit matched, so 0.04*0.1=0.4% chance
Rank 1: 10% chance *if* 2nd digit matched, so 0.004*0.1=0.04% chance

Obviously no way to get great odds of rank 1 with 40 marbles, but it's better than randoms, which would give you a 40/99999 chance, which is ~0.004%

Yeah, I'm bored at work

Needs more mules.

Diverting thread: What prizes for each rank would you pick?

Mine

1. Gil
2. Herald's gaiters, or maybe D.chapeau if main wins
3. Toss up... RDM body, Hauteclaire, or Seveneyes if main wins. Gil/sapphire otherwise
4. Empress hairpin on main lol. Otherwise most expensive
5. Fafnir

1. Gil
2. Gil
3. Gil
4. Gil
5. Gil

1 Main / 16 Mules (going to start gardening once i get the hang of it) (silvermist 2nd (jp) account)

Rank 1 Gil (Gungir)
Rank 2 Gil (Ares)/BB
Rank 3 Hauteclaire (I do not have pld lvld, but this seems the best out of the rest and would be an incentive to lvl pld)
Rank 4 Which ever item sells for the most gil (ill wait 3-4 months for price to bounce back in AH) either b-hides or kroma ore
Rank 5 Fafnir Statue/Merc camp entry ticket (havent made up my mind)

That's a lot of numbers

Now that's how it's done.

Wow nice lol. I have to wait til I get home to see what I won cause I don't have access to my spreadsheet from work

and grats Dale on your statues!

I won:

...

1x Rank 4! on a mule, no hairpin for me
and a lot of rank 5s. yay.

The higher tier winning numbers had too many zeros in them! Oh well, at least I made back the cost of buying marbles plus a little more.

3 rank 5



and 1 fucking number loff rank 1.................... 19367 mine = 19567

damn lol

i hate this fuckin game

58846
1164
733
96
8


I won 2 rank4 prizes. 340k for 2 khroma ores, not as great as last time but better then nothing.

Hmm.. Behemoth or Turtle?

also incase people don't realize, Nan necrobumped last year's thread

I think I may have won a rank 1...

If not, like 1 digit off. o.o My parents said I could activate my account and RMT the gil if I won anything, which I won't do. But basically convinced them to let me have my account for a month nonetheless.

Maybe. o.o

When you leave again next month, can I have your stuff?

all he has that is not ra/ex is a blau. 2mil to relic maul gogo

lolz

And Blau, about a mil worth of thf gear that's not r/e, prolly get about a mil from my sam and rdm gear too. Plus the 3 ingots I have, and 1mil on my character.

So... that's about 8mil there buddy.

Well congrats on 8 mil Dale.

Like I'd give anything to him.

Here are my results:
I lost 80k gil and got -10 inventory space for about a month. Thanks SE.

10 inventory times 2k per marble = 80k?
