Ulmo is pleased with your victory and grants you a An Assassin's Crossbow [4x11] (+4). Use it well! ..Today

Ulmo is pleased with your victory and grants you a A Helm of Ecthelion [6]. Use it well! ... Yesterday

Still not got one.

*heart* RNG.

WTB MOAR RNG...

I was going to say that still had not received one, but I decided to check my chatlog. I actually got a Hal, a few days ago. That is my first in months.


Also nice, since I wanted a Hal so that I could experiment with different Tattoos.

Ulmo loves me.

Just got a Katana :)

Ulmo is pleased with your victory and grants you a An Executioner's Sword [82x2] (+4). Use it well!


PS. Everyone loves you Bast.

Just a moment ago I got a nice little ELB for my troubles.

SWEET...

<system

first drop in almost 3 months

Well I'll be....

Still to high.

Varda is pleased with your victory and grants you a An Executioner's Sword [82x3] (+4). Use it well!

In the same hour.

and yet we should get it more evenly divided? Think it's not working... no drops while still fighting a lot.

Would you like one of mine Shade? I got an exbow, a spare hal, a corn, a Combat Gi and an AoM since the change.

And I didn't get anything since the change while others got up to 5 (or more?). As I mentioned before: with the small population that CB is a RNG will lead to an unfair distribution. (And while I'm at it: There is no such thing as RNG in present computer hardware. Just algorithms that try to be clever and have properties comparable to randomness. With many samples the output can considered something like "random", but about 500 samples really isn't big enough.)

Everyone got -20% rewards, some get compensation, others none. Broken.

Still offering the above items to those significantly less gifted then myself.

Still nothing.

Been playing for about a month not a single thing. I dunno if your all buying mass loads of BA or what but I never get any drops :( *sigh* oh well....

only wins will trigger drops wickedly, you are only winning 59% of your battles for the last 24 hours. if that is pretty standard, then over 250 of your battles per day aren't even counting as far as the drop system is concerned.

Yea that is true.

Need to level up my ToA then I will be ok, haha :)

Also wicked, you get free BA, so you should use it as much as possible.

He's not getting free BA as his account is from 2005. ;)

Whoa whoops, well keep chugging then, you've got the tough road ;)

Yea pretty much, I think thats what everyone does just chuggin along. lol.

I just started playing again BTW I used to play way back in 05 and then stopped for a good couple years and then I remembered it again so here I am, haha :)

Well nice to have you back.

Very nice, got a pair of AG's :) Lucky!

Ulmo took away the shoulder he gave me because I made his tee shirt all wet from my tears.

Anyways...O-some.

Ulmo is disgusted in your attempts to battle -1 Morgul-Hammer 84x10+3

not for me then :(

Just got an ES...so far that makes 3 of them. 2 katanas and a ToE. woohoo..

I've had a _FLOOD_ of them the past week or so... beforehand, having had next to no drops worth mentioning ever since the drop system was introduced.

:)

not seen anything yet..sigh..ok..only 6k battles but you would figure somethning would pop..unless I have to get to 10k to have it pop.

^ I've pretty much been getting a drop every 10k fights, since the system was implemented. If the gods don't decide that you'll be super-unlucky, something should drop soon.

Anyways, you should be able to afford all you want with that tasty NuB ;)

15k on my ncb and not a single drop ...

It's lottery, so of course some people will never get anything, while others will get plenty.

Since the system was tweaked though, it's more likely that we'll all get drops at a rate that is common between us. Least that's what I understood was the goal with the changes lately...

Mandos is pleased with your victory and grants you a A Pair of Elven Boots [10] (+9). Use it well!

More likely it will end as a Poisson_distribution. Some getting none, others getting loads.

with things the way they are, you could get one at 10k battles, or your very first battle, or not until you've racked up 35k battles... randomness ftw :P

8000 battles later, still none.

Got a katana today.

i can hardly wait to tell all my friends.....

oops... clicked 'view all non-system' to get to my CM box... it seems they are stored, but don't count toward your message capacity, as i still have 41 non-system, 9 legitimate system messages, and a couple dozen goofdrop messages

There is not a limit on chatmails by volume, just by age (two weeks, IIRC).
