I can organise the info and help with it using Minitab 15.

Rank Points: 1:16
Galaxy Points: <1:500


That can't possibly be right, unless you are missing a reward. Converting them to % it doesn't even add to 80%.

The figures look to be rounded, and they came out as 95% for me, which isn't completely unreasonable considering.

Mind giving us the dataset?

I see what I did wrong in relaying this, it was late, but they should have been fractions not ratios, so:

    Mineral Units: 1/2 = 1:1 = 50%
    Tri-Matrix Emblems: 1/5 = 1:4 = 20%
    Research Points: 1/6 = 1:5 = 16.7%
    Energy Cubes: 1/12 = 1:11 = 8.3%
    Rank Points: 1/16 = 1:15 = 6.25%
    Galaxy Points: <1:500 = <0.2%

The data will never come out to exactly 100%, because on certain days you don't get any of these six rewards.

    (Note: I received Galaxy Points twice in my first six weeks playing, before I began recording data, but with poor luck did not yet receive it even once over this twenty-one month sample. I'll give y'all two years of full data on June 16th if you'd like.)

Don't even go there. It's random. Period.

Not really interested in anecdotal guesses, as I have my own, but anecdote's not worth much. Also not interested in theories of how the RNG hates you (I know it hates me too, but hey, there you go).

I don't think you'll find more accurate data than 737 consecutive days: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc ... zQ2c#gid=5

I plan to continue to keep track, as I find the trends interesting. (For those who are wondering, I was Rank 300ish at the end of 2011, Rank 650ish at the end of 2012.)



Many thanks to Respy and XxDarthDexterxX for helping me put this data into a spreadsheet.

i got just over 100% so they're pretty close, when i treated them as fractions.

late to the party lol, the posts finished at Hawkblade's page, must not have loaded properly

First, is it any surprise you see the most common reward multiple days in a row sometimes? Second, you're wildly off topic anyhow,

I was not looking for intermittent reports of the days you get minerals. Even more so I got the information I wanted at the time (thanks Dixie!). Let the thread die. If someone came with a new set of percentages based on a robust dataset, then a necro might be in order, but this is nonsensical.
