You're not unlucky per say, the odds are just slim.

I know this won't make it easier but I saw a player today around level 76, who told me he got it using all free options. Didn't look like a forum player either. :(. I'm stuck at 9 too.

I have the same fate as you when i reaching 7-8 CB. I have to open 25 bags to reach my 8th CB and miraclously the rest wnet back to average flow of 8-14 bags.
I got my 10th bag after 14 successful tries. I believe all players will have experience a "peak season" stuck at 30-40bags before the usual average kicks back again.
Your luck is coming soon dasmesh keep it coming u can get ur pathmaker.
I have opened an average of 72 bags still have 55 unopen bags. Got my 10th Contrabands.
Wow, you guys think you're unlucky because you only have 9?
I've opened 70 bags with money and I have 5 Contraband ಠ_ಠ

After each diamond, emerald, contraband it gets harder and harder to get the last one but you never have a zero chance (CC Mark post). If you use the in game cash option consider it a bonus when you get 3, 5 or 7 of anything. Those items are gold equivalent and still free if you want to remain a free player. Most of the loot this time was actually useful for most players (I would guess players greater than 150 + this might not be the case so it would be nice to eventually get a loot table geared for 150 + players as well). I have been stuck on 9 as well for the last few days but I have only used the in game cash option. After the emerald event, 3000 gold and finally (luckily) getting the burner, I can say that this event has been much more fun for me. The fact that I knew I would buy gold during the sales and only use it for crates and not to open / reset bags rinse repeat has been the difference. Good luck on the 10th but don't be upset when it doesn't show up. I think the events are great ideas and keep them coming.

I belive the algorithm for these bags = 1-5 super easy, 6-7 mildly more difficult, 7-9 noticably more difficult, and 10 is very difficult. Getting stuck at 9 isn't unlucky, it's normal. Getting people one bag short of the finish line is a great way to sell a lot of gold. Especially to people who haven't been down this road before.
Your right Max, regarding the difficultly. The 1st event was for me really easy, had my Sig with 2 days to go, the emerial I was a late starter and therefore never really had a chance, ended up with 8. This event I have been on it since day one using gold all the way. I'm into my 3rd day on nine bags fingers crossed
