*grumble* Orange spin 5+ times in a row?

[Andramal]

Sufficed to say I'm doing a lot of side fishing as I try to get a green again. Talk about luck. :P

Okay rant over, get back to your farms/islands.

[BLAME! 40K]

its a 75% chance for beeing orange.

That's for green, not orange, but it definitely felt like that. XD

so here is a tip that works for me, Spin once with low bet. See where arrow stops.
If it is on left side of green area, then next spin will be green as well.
If it is on far right side of green arrow, then next spin most likely to land on orange.
This strategy works for me 90% of the time, and I win, win, win.
I usually get 4-5 green spins , the 1-2 orange spins, then back to green.

I think my record is like, 4 orange in a row. But I am also using mods and not entirely sure if one of them changes the odds. Talk about bad luck though. I always bet on green myself :p But I usually make small bets, like 500 tokens. I really just want the stardrop and rarecrow :>

I don't use mods, I think ... the most Oranges I've seen in a row is ... 3 maybe? It's still an RNG thing, so ... yeah, 5 Oranges in a row sucks, but is entirely possible.

Generally, I balance how much I bet based on how much I've won. Am I below 1000? I'll only bet 100. Am I over 1000? Okay, try 200. Etc, etc.

[z3r0t3n™]

I usually just bet half of the current tokens on green.

[NBOX21]

Personally, I just play the slingshot game multiple times to get enough tokens to buy everything in the fair. With enough practice, it's so easy I feel like I don't have to try, to the point where I can usually get good enough to earn 500 tokens in one go which I believe is the maximum amount you can earn in a single run and is only about a minute long.
At most, I only end up spending a maximum of 500 gold to earn enough Star tokens for all the items in the prize exchange, even without playing the fishing minigame nor Wheel of Fortune to get them, and in some cases, without setting up a grange display.

Well, I like to spice things up and sometimes I bet all I have! :D It sucks if you lose though. But then I will simply reload... ;>

I've usually done some farming chores prior to going to the Fair, so ... it would be a bit tedious to reload, and I tend to be a bit on the conservative side when betting (as a result).

I tend to not do much chores on festival days :> I don't have the patience to be conservative when it comes to betting lol. Same when I play monopoly for example. Buy buy buy! $.$ And I swear I have won many times that way. But it has sucked really bad when I have lost

Buying a lot is supposed to be one of the good strategies. My mother played a lot of Monopoly when she was little (with two older sisters), and she always used to tell me to do just that when playing. Buy early, dominate as much of the board as you can.

Guess I have been lucky in that way cause almost everyone I have played against has been more on the conservative side :p But I am also generous, I usually leave the train stations and utilities alone :D
