Worst luck ever

Failed 5 50% scrolls in a row trying to finish off the last 3 slots of my katara.
Yet I can pass 3 20% clean slates in a row.
Now I'm out of the 25 slates I farmed from the anniversary......

Why am I cursed? -_-

[quote=Goatsauce]5 is still nothing... I started scrolling, and failed like everything, ever.
So I gave up. In the end, I decided to run a test. While it's very inaccurate or representing of every scroll in game, it still proves my point.
Every year since I start MS, like 6-7 years ago, I scrolled 200 times with 60%'s. In 6-7 years, I have passed 9 scrolls. 9, 60% scrolls...

Incase 11yrold with no math, its about 9/1,300[/quote]

5 = something

OT: I've failed a lot of scrolls too, if that makes you feel any better.

It's clear that you are one of the "11 year olds with no math".
The probability of passing 9 60% scrolls out of 200 is
(200 C 9)(0.6)^9(0.4)^191, which is approximately 1.167*10^(-63).
9/1,300 is approximately 6.923*10^(-3).
You're not even close, so I think you need to work on both your English [i]and[/i] your math.

I couldn't fail that many if I used 10%s ._.

@xkillo32: Yeah i'm farming 1 scroll right now I usually get 1-3 coins per char the day before so farming the scrolls is easier.

Funny before Unleashed, I used the 20% scrolls and passed 4 in a row with lvl 7 diligence.

I also had my last lucky day scroll on it. I used the scroll and DCed before the scroll went completely through.

Long story short, I lost my last slot and 10 clean slate scrolls. [/quote]

Fixed.

@ShiroMugetsu Well it's a waste maxing since I'm doing this on a bunch of characters.

@Goatsauce Well considering all the slates I have to get back, 5 is a lot to fail.
