Thread: call me a conspiracy theory kook if you must, but the token drop rate in Laby is down

    call me a conspiracy theory kook if you must, but the token drop rate in Laby is down

    I know this has been discredited as a possibility and out right denied by the moderators. But it is clear to me that the drop rate for tokens in Laby has been lowered. I can score 700 about 3 out of 5 times and have been doing so for quite a while. I used to often get 3 extra tokens from the shuffle with a 700 score and only rarely would I get a chip. And all chip shuffles were very, very rare. They are almost the norm now.

    whatever, it is what is. But it would me nice to hear that in fact a change has been made.

    other than that, it's just depressing as hell.

    at least stars are more or less fun to do now. That's good.

    thanks for letting me vent.

    All I seem to get at the moment is tokens.
    Everything is this game has cycles.
    Due to the nature of it and the use of an RNG. Drop rates are in cycles and will remain that way.
    Worst part about an RNG is once the system is worked out, it would be like counting cards in blackjack you will be able to almost tell what's coming next.

    oh man i am so glad you explained it this way *sarcastic* and i thought i was being targeted since i am doing 3 lab runs a day and really noticed a difference as well over the past month or so. i used to get at least 1-2 tokens and a plan once in a while when over 700. i actually thought i get a plan everytime i get over 800... but 'not'. fooled me good. yesterday i went 3x over 700 and got 3 chips each on first and second run and 3 chips 1 token on the 800+ run. lets hope i get more "lucky" today lol


    ps: think about this: even in RNG is parameters you can set for rewards.

    That is pretty much what is happening.

    Well why don't u man up n step into level 3 hard. Since chips there are level 4,5,6 they tend to drop quite a few tokens.
    Maybe I get more tokens as I have 650 in my bank and have all Sirius plans ready. I dunno. But when someone is explaining something they found take it on board instead of being a tool.

    You are a conspiracy theory kook

    There since noone else bothered to tell you I did

    roflmao

    Boo is absolutely right
    I have gone 50 runs in lab and get more chips then tokens, then 50 where i get mainly tokens, then 50 where is a mix, then 50 with 10 plan drops. Nothing has really changed its just seems that way with the limited number of results one person gets. If you could see what everyone across multiple servers has gotten and gets then maybe you can start saying things have changed. But I would complain to boo that for 2 weeks Ive gotten chips 80% of the time and he would tell me he got 5 plans and mostly tokens over the same period. Its all just the RNG and nothing has changed

    Previously I always used to get the chips in the shuffles after laby, but in the last 2 months all I have ever gotten is either tokens OR gems, NOTHING ELSE .. I must say that I'm quite satisfied with this and hope it remains this way forever xD

    Im not much of a conspiracy theorist, but I did get 4 chips on a 800+ hard 1 two times in a row...which has never happened before. Ive also since then gotten 6 tokens off of an 800.....so not saying its changed but I have noticed more chips recently than before.
