    The only thing I can say is this.

    When it says you have a 90% chance of success that means for that attempt only. SO the computer randomly picks a number between 1 and 100 and if its 90 or less you succeed.

    If you fail and try again
    The exact same process happens.
    There is no adjustment to it for previous successes of failures.

    SO this does give the appearance that the success rates are over stated even though they are not.

    However I hate that it is done this way.

    People get upset because they fail something at 90%, so a logical expectation is the next time it will succeed. But that is not the case because the success/failure of the next time does not take into account any previous attempts. SO it does not seem like the percentages are correct. It was the same way on evony.
    Do not expect them to change it.

    Yes I understand what you are saying ,but this has been an on going thing
    If you are lucky and get the star upgrade , and 1 to 3 days later you try another star upgrade with a 88% chance of success ,the stars you already had together with the new stars will be gone ,spend gems to buy more stars to try again another day and your stars will also be gone together with what you already had
    Spend you money to buy gems ,which you use to buy stars and those stars will also be gone together with what you already had.
    The game is just about taking your money ,then taking away what you paid for,and that's a 90% chance sure thing

    It's actually completely illogical to expect a 90% chance to succeed on the second try. Yes, you have 9/10 chances to succeed, but you can easily fail 10 times in a row with a 90% chance of success. The odds of that happening are of course slim, but it's certainly possible. The only logical way to think about it is that it will only get harder the more stars you have as the percentage chance to succeed declines.

    I agree the system sucks

    Its pretty much the same system we had on evony, yet plenty of us got 15 star sets eventually. Granted we could get the gems needed to do that for free, and you pay for the medals here. But it can be done
