Maybe a blessing in DE-SKYS since I didn't waste gold on opening boxes I guess....
Last 24 hr update:
0 - Warheads
13 - Sorries
5 - $$ (total 1.26M)
7 - Units
2 - Valor (total 200)
3 - Grunts
Total event: 9 warheads in 114 attempts.
Although I intended not to spend gold on these events again, after three days sitting at 9, I figured the odds of burning 390 gold was worth it. Without going on a complete rant about the "devious" nature of these promos, I just have one question for Funzio. Here it is:
"What analytics support your projections of maximizing profitability that offset disgruntled customers with such stingy drop rates on a fake jet?"
I guarantee I will not waste $$ on future promos.
Good night all...

You get what you put in and people get what they deserve.
Amen! But in my case... support has always been good from Funzio, where were they over the weekend? Tickets went unanswered x3.
also paid money to get the 1500 gold and only got 9 nukes. sorry but this is a joke and if they want customers that want to keep playing and paying for this game this needs to be fixed.
That's all for me folks, 9 nukes, total of 54 successfully opened boxes (32 since my 9th). My stats for all 4 events are:
1. 7 tits bar
2. 8 docs
3. 10 p parts
4. 9 warheads
Funny how I never end up with the same number of parts in the end haha
Hmmm...a similar pattern to me.
1. 7 Tit bars
2. 10 Docs...that's the 20% time reduction prize. YAY!
3. 9 Propellers
4. 8 WMD's
Tit bars! Woop Woop
Lol If I had a choice, I'd much rather get the grand prize on the second event, just like you. Well, not complaining. At least I get 4 indestructible units on this one.
Hope we dont end up with only 6 on the next event.

Final Reckoning:
9 X warheads
8 X 500 valor
6 X Armed Lookout (7/16)
2 X Riot Buster (10/18)
3 X Squadron Leader (12/22)
10 X Drone Tank (20/20)
6 X $1.25m
7 X $250K
Attempts to open: 114 (106 game cash; final 8 in gold @ 120)
Opens: 51
Sorry: 63
Analysis - can't complain! Seemed to come away with heaps of money, a good amount of valor, more than 20 units (which have never died on me) and 4 indestructible units.
Of course disappointed, but certainly not going to grumble. I wasn't attacked once after Day One and therefore didn't lose units, and due to that and the stack of cash I received, I built both space centers!
Have to say, though, next event I will go all out to the ninth item and then stop trying at that point; the tenth will always have to be an unexpected bonus.
You guys might not see me for a while - taking a well deserved break!

Hammer Slammer & Thunder Child
It was great to all way to the big price but to be honest I didn't expect I would get it. I carried on doing the same things I was doing before. I'm very close to get the amount I need for the second Nano. After that I can say I will slow down a bit. I hope you have a nice break.

Got 8 bars. Invested some gold bars(240) in the last 2 days to get at least on more nuke but nothing. Finished event with 194 crates unopened. Got screwed on some cash that Ive found in the crates but not received in my purse. Lesson learned: no more real cash invested, play free since there are less chances to become bitter and twisted.

I think the people who work at funzio are the ones who wrote the posts saying they found the 10th warhead. This was all a con so they could get a bunch of people to buy gold, they just put out a few good posts saying they struck it rich and everyone else gets excited and tries harder.
@major, participated in 4 events yet, 2 times at 9, one time at 8. entered with 9 to the last 15 minutes, bit the bullet, got 240 or so gold, used them to reset timer, and 6 minutes into the countdown, GOT IT
So, no, it IS possible to get the winner item, and it IS logical for only a few to get it, which makes it a prize
Yes, i am happy, but for previous 3 events, i didn't get the 10th bar to win the prize. thats the whole point of events, which actually hands out a 500+ gold unit for much much much cheaper, and at times for free
not to forget all those freebies on the way
Well my son woke me up screaming for a bottle at 2:57am, 3 minutes before the end of the event so I thought to myself this must be an omen. So I popped one of the 16 boxes I still had remaining and to my surprise, no warhead...another unit. Then another unit when I woke up and opened the one box they allow to open after the event ends.
I wont sit here and whine about conspiracies like so many others, Ill just be thankful for the prizes Ive gathered during the events spending exactly 0.00 dollars on gold.
As long as I can get boxes and they open with frequency, then Im willing to overlook the obvious way in which the events are insidiously programmed .
The universe is hostile, so impersonal....devour to survive,so it is, so its always been....
