I received a morale recharge today, a useful gift. I would have preferred energy, but since they crapped on my myrmidons (detect bitterness), I may be needing morale. The old myrmidons rocked against the boss.
Thanks Gree for the morale refill. It is appreciated.
I received a UR Orontes I.
Just kidding.
LMAO I was cussin' your luck, until I saw the bottom. I do not believe I have faced an Orontes I yet.
Orontes I (Armenian: Երուանդ Ա, Yervand I) Armenian King of Orontid Dynasty reigning in the period between 401 BC – 344 BC. The Persian version of the name is Auruand which meant "Great Warrior" in the Avestan language.
Love some of these names...
Well guys don't just look here, what did you receive?
Everyone got the same thing
Well what fun is that? The ought to throw things out "random".Quote:

That is why I quoted "random". No computer can truly do random, but they do look at our cards in selecting what the keys will reveal, so in theory they could give "random" based on that.Quote:

And to make it easy, lets say there are 6 balls. Well, random would be 2/6 for red, orange, and yellow. Gree is more of a 5/6 for red, .99/6 orange and .01 for yellow. So Gree, figure out probability, if a 14 year old can do it, so can you. And when you come with a new REAL probability for chests, then please release the odds, otherwise we can see you are lying.Quote:

Remember I lead with my Myrmidons, and follow it up with low armor, but heavy hitters. I've no clue how the computer plays me, my Myr are basically a shield with less bite (Now much less). To take out both squads is at least 6 hits That's time I have to hit back hard.Quote:

I've used them to max a countermeasure UC unit, don't bother they are still useless. Why not just give a bonus based on how many empty slots we do battle with. IE; Instead of 6 in squad allow less, for bonus increase.Quote:

Can anyone give me a reasonable and justifiable explanation for that because it just doesn't make any sense to me. As far as I recall, the top 8-10 players of one alliance all own multiple epic units. It really upset me. Were they all that exceptionally lucky during that promotion week? No other alliances will stand a chance when encountering them in any future alliance wars because of that. Please tell me not one, not two but 10 players pulled out 3-10 epic units during that week is NORMAL. (We all know how slim the chance is to pull out an SR or UR unit from the gold chest, not to mention the EPIC unit. However, this next-to-zero chance obviously doesn't seem to apply to them. What made them so special?)Quote:

There are several Epics in our Alliance and our sister Alliance and I can say those guys were getting them legitimately. Watching for the patterns is key on when you should turn in keys and I missed the timing so I got no Epics. If you cash in at the right time you can literally get tons of epics like I was getting tons of Refusals. The patterns always change though and I don't know how they catch them but our two alliances collaborate a lot so that's like 140 people looking for them so that's how they catch them.
Thanks for the clarification, Striker. Wow, timing and pattern. Looks like these two alliances have studied and tested the algorithm repeatedly over time. I am very curious - when were these two alliances started? You guys seem to be around for a long while and are familiar with all the tricks. It was just eye-popping when I saw the demonstration of squads of your top 20 players. I have to say no other alliance will stand a chance unless they are also getting some epic units. But, how?Quote:

whether it is the patterns or myth....only your alliance know.
A lot of guys have been around since like the beginning of the game. Everyone is on Palringo sharing tips all the time and we help each other out which is what keeps us both near the top in the events. It isn't from my contributions that's for sure but I hope I can catch a lucky break and get an Epic. Nothing is a for sure thing though which is why everyone doesn't have an Epic and most people who have them still spend a lot of keys. I see a lot of those guys finishing in the top 20 in almost every event so you still need a lot of investment to get Epic units to get the keys to spend and many of them use real money too.
