A week ago I woke up early for work so I could play a little modern war and scratched the grand money prize of $1 Billion. I could not believe it! I have been playing this game for almost 2 years and this really made my day. I bought two villas and a **** ton of troops along with a $100million donation to my faction.

Whats the biggest thing you have won???

You lucky bugger, I want $1,000,000,000. My biggest thing was I think $10,000,000 which I donated to my faction.

Heh, so around what time did you wake up?

I mostly win crappy units that do me no benefit, because I have found if you do the scratch around midnight to a few hours after, you win crap. And I stay up late. The better things I've won, like a whopping ten million, those came from trying 12 hours, at least, after the daily scratch-off commences.

People carry the tendency to exaggerate, especially when they're telling about a memory near and dear. I'm sure he won the billion.

But I'm interested about correlation between time scratched and prize received. If there's one. It's a mighty coincidence, otherwise, that I get utter junk the same time every night.

Nah, I think that time makes prizes, I live in Russia-(+11 GMT) and when there was 3 hours of night, I won my first 100kk, I want to try secondly scratching at this time.

I won a siege carrier about 2 weeks ago. I almost fell of my chair when I saw 6 shields.

I have one of the 4x airunit and three of the 4x sea unit on my HLP, I have the 5x sea unit on my LLP and I had that after not logging in to the game for around 3 days so was a nice surprise when I opened that game.

So every time I get a scratcher, usually I get crapy units. Can anyone explain how they work? I see in the rewards how some items say x3.

Chilli!
03-15-2013, 02:32 AM
1 million cash :(

Everything other time is a rubbish unit or 250 valor..

Does anyone know if you have increased luck by buying a scratcher? or is it stil crappy? If you dont have increased luck i cant see the point in spending 30 gold on it?

Why don't you buy a large enough sample size worth of scratchers and tell us the results. That way we can determine if scratchers bought with gold have improved odds of winning better prizes.

I have bought 4 in row and all were crapy units.

That sounds like an excellent idea.... if i had lots of money, but i dont..

Maybe one of the rich forum members can test it for the good of mankind..

Weeks and weeks ago I thought...wow what a good thing! Got a 2 or 3 really nice units and 10mil.

minime is ~1 month old and won 3 or 4 times 1 million. I myself had only once luck and got 4 money = 10 million. Too bad I was already building that time something so I wasted it for units in 30 seconds :D

but congräts on getting villas :D

Match 5 valor is my highest, 25k I think. That was a great stats boost, it all went to stealth frigates before they were removed.

I matched 5 and got the Spider Tank only recently, I have also gotten 10 mil a couple of times, and a lot of 1 mils, still wish I could get a match 6 thought.

1x? Hard to believe! I only got that once. Usually it's 2x and 3x.

03-15-2013, 09:29 AM
$100m 2 times; First time I bought a bunch of units. Second time I gave it to the faction.
100k valor once
1 awesome unit (don't recall what it was)
Everything else was a basic prize.

I got the little brother, 5 shields, Drone Carrier 197A/283D. It was pretty nice a while back, but now we can get better units with leader board events LOL.
Also Blackjack and few $10mil.

I won a drone carrier about a month ago. Matched 5 shields. But like whenever I win something decent on a scratcher, the game crashed, so it killed my immediate excitement.

2 robot walkers and 100 million. I'd like to get a match 6 once

I've never gotten better than a blackjack or 10mil on any mw account, but on KA I got match six honor, 3 days in a row. Talk about the worst prize ever.

Just do a little math. You have a 1/6 chance of getting a particular icon, 1/36 of getting two, 1/216 of getting three, and so on... That means you have a 1/46656 chance of getting six of a kind of a particular icon. However, there are 6 different prizes that you can get, so you have a 1/7776 chance of getting six of any kind.

It's right if you are saying something like "What are the odds of getting two shields", but not matching two of anything. I don't feel like working it all out, too lazy right now. :)
But, odds of getting all 6 of anything are 1:7776 I believe.

I've gotten a lot of match fives across MW and KA. My only one for MW is the Drone Carrier. It was the first scratcher I got after the update.

Congrats on your money! I personally believe that the money one is the best one, especially if you have the defense to hold onto it for a while (aka getting all the LE buildings with ease) When I was first starting out, I think it was around level 10 or something I won the massacre gunner (6 solders i think). huge boost at being a level 10, but now that I've played a bit, yes its my best unit, but with all the other units you're getting from WD events, the stats on it arn't jaw dropping anymore. I'd have prefered the money so I can get an extremely high IPH and then use it to buy the best units

I've gotten once a 5k valor, Drone Carrier, Blackjack, Savage Cruiser, Elite Force.

I seem to get a a lot of Naval Cutters, Transport IFVs, and Desert Elites more than any other unit.

Other than that I get $100k or 250 valor. I've not tried opening later in the day to see if it makes a difference.

ImperialTheme
03-15-2013, 09:35 PM
I've gotten 25k valor, that's about the best I've found

Jd-fors
03-15-2013, 11:40 PM
Wow!i seriously haven't scratched anything close to what I am reading here.250 valor and some obscure unit that gives 10 attack.thought the whole thing was a joke like the crates.

Soot
03-16-2013, 12:27 AM
I've been playing this game for about 3 weeks. all free scratchers (I would never purchase them. 30 gold is a ripoff!)

Top stuff: 10mil, Blackjack.

I've yet to receive any valor.

Just scratched another one 20 minutes ago, got a Recon Infantry.

If i get 4 of $$$ then I will be happy because then I can get 2 of the limited time building without being ****d and it would save me time too! cos i got 8mill stored up and am waiting for the top grossing buildings to pay up then I can buy my bloody building

A guy in our faction won $1 billion once and donated ALL to the faction. We could not believe it and upgraded the building output twice plus a bunch load of forts and other stuff. That guy is untouchable in our faction now - he will never be kicked.
best i won is 10mil. Otherwise pretty crappy inventory.

2-3 days before Egypt I also got $1Billion . I was attending a lecture that time and spent the whole lecture spending that money buying units lol. I got 2 AV..... even upgraded one of them before the war.

I won $100,000,000 on a scratcher a few weeks ago. I immediately started expanding and upgrading my deposit limit and a few other things. Then i realized I should be buying the anniversary center for my base. Well that was a dumb idea because I was getting attacked and ripped off faster than I could save it. I ended up saying screw it and i wasted it all. So for me, winning that much was almost more of a hassle. But what i learned is that you should upgrade your protected balance in your vault as much as you can even if you can't fill it, because you never know when you'll hit big.

Through both my accounts, I've won 5 blackjacks (4 stamina I think), a couple 10,000,000, and a couple other 4x stuff. No 5x or 6x stuff, yet...

I am a cow
03-18-2013, 01:24 AM
I want 5x I always get 2x or 3x haven't had 4x since 3 weeks ago but then I had 4x 3x in a row

KidWiz
03-18-2013, 04:21 AM
I had luck for 5x twice.

One was 100 Million for my LLP camper account and 25.000 valor for one of my main account.

The camper now has 2 of the new event buildings from china event and for the other I was lucky to buy around 70 stealth frigates and other valor units.

well this is awkward....saturday morning woke up, scratched with minime....1 million again (it was a months old minimes 4th or 5th time already)...then on main account scratching and.....100 million. Too bad it didnt come earlier so I could get the limited villa. Well wasted most money on destroyers (just got dock to lvl8), then build my first nano (its still building actually) and upgraded my jinai to level 2 and no money left :(

I've only ever had 4xShield which yielded a ~50 Att/Def unit.

I've been scratching since the start so my big win can't be far off!

Alo
03-20-2013, 07:24 AM
well...minime scratched again 1 million today morning. Hope it will get 10 million soon too, so I could build jinay for minime :D
