WTF is this piece of poo?

[k0de]

Just got my daily scratcher. Quickly brushed off the panel while barely paying attention- just enough to realise that I wasn't getting anything good today and assuming that I'd be throwing a Siege Rocket Launcher or $10k in the pile with the rest of my useless junk. And useless junk it was indeed- though this time, the prize had reached a new level of crap-tastic. So much so that when I saw it, I exclaimed aloud "WTF?!?" with genuine shock and disgust.
I now have my first Lowrider.

At first I thought it must be some sort of glitch- that I'd erroneously received a prize meant for Levels 1-50 or something (I'm at 180). But then I remembered that Scratcher prizes aren't bracketed. Given that it's by far the worst Scratcher item I've received, this must be the first time ever I've failed to match at least two symbols. If I'm not mistaken, it's 46655 to 1 against not matching any symbols, or the same as that of winning the top prize (however maths isn't one of my strong points so maybe I'm wrong).

Whatever the case, 6/6 is an epic failure after beating such overwhelming odds.

To conclude, let me say that this is worse than being the fourth man in at a Lemon party. Probably.

Haha sucker. You win some, you lose some.

[Ramshutu]

If it makes you feel any better, I just won my second dragon star today, and won 10m on Friday.

[Luke 3457]

My least favorite's 250 respect and 10k. Respect is useless even if it was 1mil respect. And I have over 3 mil an income so 10k can suck my nuts

[k0de]

Haha sucker. You win some, you lose some.
Wait... you win some?

[kitzune]

consider the one token prizes as the goat behind the door prize when you try for the great 5 or 6 token prizes.....

[PawnXIIX]

I just won the same thing the other day. It gave me $1,000 though, I had all 6 symbols different :p

I was like ._.'


Today made up for it, matched 4 symbols so I got myself a 4th set of Tiger Blades

I think I'd rather have the goat.

[kitzune]

heh it's the same that drops sometimes in PVP. but then again for mozst people over level 100 I imagine the PVP drops are meh....

I don't really mind an M72 here or there, and skull shotguns aren't the worst either :p

[kitzune]

Are there better PVP vehicle drops then the Armored truck and lowrider later in the game?

[Luciferianism]

On the plus side, you could pick up the hunnies in it?

[iteachem]

The APT is 4/19 and a PVP drop
The Pimp's lowrider drops in PVP less frequently and is 16/9

As far as loot..

The Empire Central Bus is 15/17 and drop rate is pretty good.
Wicked Wheels is 18/18 and drop is not bad either...

There are rarer PVP drops than those, In order I believe they are the Bloody AK47 (15/11), the Skull Shotgun (18/7), and the rarest would be the M72 Rocket Launcher (19/14). I've gotten about 2 M72s in just over 6,000 fights total :p They drop at a rate of about every 2,000 fights I think most people would agree.

I believe these are all level 51 - 200 drops. They only become available to be dropped at that point.

Have 9 of the M72s and 26 Skulls, 21 Bloody AK in 29800 PVP.. Don't know how many fights I had before level 50 but about every 3000 for the M72 given total number fights

Lol Awesome

My wife has win some cool stuff...

I hate scratcher threads. It's always me and a few others talking about how crap scratchers are, and then others going on about 2 dragon stars, and multiple other 4x+ items.

I'm leaving. Jumping in my Lowrider, grabbing my Irish courage and my Irish shooter and not coming back to this thread.

Yeah, that's right. I have THREE 1x scratcher prizes, and nothing better than a 4x.

[Ghost818]

Just got a million, matched 4 cash and used it to upgrade my nightclub to level 5 for only 50 hours? If I remember correctly I had to wait 100+ hours for level 4.

[TonySpaghetti]

Consider yourself lucky. There are children in Africa who will never have a low rider.

Dudeman: it might just be a coincidence, but I have found that using the "Scratch All" button yields better results than rubbing the scratch area.

[dudeman]

Ok, I lied... I'm back in the thread, for one more post anyways. :cool:

@Ghost, do you have the Loaded Dice? They are working twice as hard as normal. Our upgrade crews have never had a better foreman, but I think the regular foreman took an unscheduled vacation and his super is filling in. My last 3 upgrades, including the one in progress, are all regular ~84 hour upgrades. They all took ~42 hours. I have two "10% faster" items, but one still doesn't work yet.

@Spaghetti, I use both scratch methods. I don't keep track of which was used when or what the prize was though. I just randomly pick a method every day. They're about the same in my experience.

[Ghost818]

@dudie, yeh bro I do they are working twice as hard, however I wish it was the striker working twice as hard, finally leveled and unlocked casinos and input in 230M in my level 5NC upgrade. Also just in time to try level 22 boss. I think I'll do it with 10-20 gold spent my first 5 and my level up 5 took him to half way.

Edit: with an hour and 6 mins left I think I can actually do level 22 without gold my attack did increase since trying level 21 :)

Care to tell us what you'd do with it? :p

[Ramshutu]

It's like that famous advert:

Goat milk?

[Kissnight]

basically the chance to hit the same 6 is 6/(6*6*6*6*6*6)=1/7776=0.0001286008
while the chance u got all different 6 is (6*5*4*3*2*1)/(6*6*6*6*6*6)=0.0154321

If the math makes u feel better

[Stock Slayer]

Just for kicks I bought three scratchers in a row and got all three as 10k. I told myself that was impossible so I bought a fourth and guess what? 10k again. This morning, 10k. One word: rigged.

[Jtstar7439]

I've gotten some awful scratchers since they have come out. The best I ever got was 4 cars and got the fluid transfer. Think it was like 110/90. The majority of the time it's 10k or a 250rp. I have also gotten no matches 3 times as well.

[Feng1234]

Wait... you win some?

Yeah. See link below.
