Gratitude for all the turkeys that sacrifice all their lives each Thanksgiving.
Afk events more. Probably won't be resolved for a while, knowing Nexon's capabilities during major issues.

It's not really a TRUE afk event, since you can't just leave your computer for the day and come back to tickets. Dunno why anyone could complain. The percentages are
extremely low, and if you don't get the item, you only have a chance at these items:
Bandage x10
HP 50 Potion x10
HP 100 Potion x5
HP 300 Potion x3
HP & MP 50 Potion x5
HP & Stamina 50 Potion x5
MP 50 Potion x10
Stamina 50 Potion x10
Stamina 100 Potion x5
Stamina 300 Potion x2

I'll do some math:
[SPOILER="Spoiler"]
Let's say for 1 whole day of 24 hours you didn't miss a single chance of getting a coupon.
1 Coupon every 18 minutes.
1440/18 = 80 Coupons per 24 hours spent
Now being more realistic, I'll make that 16 hours if you have time to stay home/at work with computer on all day.
960/18 = 53 Coupons (rounded down) per day.
Now that the event has begun, I'll say 4 days instead of 5, excluding the hours left of the first day of event.
24 hours: 80 x 4 = 320 Coupons
18 hours: 60 x 4 = 240 Coupons
16 hours: 53 x 4 = 212 Coupons
8 hours: ~26 x 4 = 104 Coupons[/SPOILER]
If you want those rarer items, you won't have too many tries to do so; unless you have someone/more than 1 computer/multi-client in order to get more Coupons.
So if you're aiming for the lower-costing items, remember to be absolutely positive before spending your tickets on the higher-tier items for a much lower percent.

I don't really use demigod skills.
If anything, its just a way to be invincible with mana shield for me.
+25% is huge.
+1 more minute of being invincible then - good for me because now I can spam it to my Heart's content :skip:

Words cannot express my rage at this event. After all that they're gonna throw nuadhas and nao coins into a common event. Going to see them everywhere by the end of it, I should've kept my hebona at least their value might last a month longer
0.2% every 6 hours is common?
I don't see them being any better in a Gachapon than in a free event, and you can't get the full set from this anyways except for 1 Nao Coin to get closer (if they plan on obtaining the rest of the coins).

Thank you for clarifying :kiss:
I was wondering what would happen if it succeeded in getting the Smiley-face but not the intended item :what:

It's not common for any one person but when there are hundreds per server... and abusers/multiclienters/etc I wouldn't be surprised to see them more common. Just because you play fairly doesn't mean the other folks will
(As sad as it is, I already did the math while I was on lunch at work reading the initial post of this thread)

Abusers/hackers will never be part of the 'average' when it comes to such statistics.
There were already hundreds of Nuadha Robes because of them, and they will always have an unfair advantage over any other player - so it's not the event to blame for them.
Those ticket numbers give players chances, but only if they can also get past that huge failure rate :stress:
It's not that .2% of the population who participates will get it, but a .2% chance for each person individually.
Unless you have a lucky star over your head, I think it would be better if you they tried to get the Dye Ampoule or other items above 1%.

I seriously laughed when I saw the title.
I'd be thankful if I could play, actually.

Unless you actually got yours from Falias, which you didn't, I see no reason to complain.
Hundreds per server, including multi-client, is still like trying to roll Raccoon Cub in one shot without Enchant Protection. In one week, I'd be surprised if even 5 new robes/coins are produced.

Unless you purposely want to pick a fight with me, which I don't want to, I see no reason [for you] to complain.
I was just sharing/venting my thoughts on the matter. I know there are people who don't care or want to hear it, that's fine, they(you) don't have to read/respond to it.

Ah well, I might as well shoot for the robe, since the only other things on that list I'm interested in also have a very low percent.
I doubt I'll get it, but I know I'll get some 300's Potions :awesome:
Kind-of long:
