I don't even have a clever joke.
We have too many fucking mechs in the machine. Like, I think the number is at twelve or so. It's stupid pants, and ruins the fun of spending ten minutes trying to win a toy sword.
Can we just delete them from the win list and be done with them? Keep one, and then we can actually get access to all the fun shit.

Except... There are 12 mechs, and 18 other toys... Further more, note that all other toys are in, twice. Where as there's only one mech toy of each type per machine. It's slightly over 50% that you'll win something non-mech (don't make me run calculations for the actual percentiles).
Further more, you fail to understand one thing... A naturally random chance produce more visible patterns than one would expect. So you getting mech after mech after mech... Is... Completely normal, and proves that the game is functioning on random chance.
I am not seeing a problem here?

Completely normal, and proves that the game is functioning on random chance. I am not seeing a problem here? I think you missed the point, skully. It's not that it isn't balanced correctly, it's that a single item resprited twelve times makes up the majority of wins, and that single item isn't even that interesting. Looking at the bar, and seeing like fifteen mechs piled onto tables, you see nobody LIKES them. Hell, I'd rather the machine shock me for some burn damage over a mech toy. I always get paranoid that I'll win so many mechs I'll start lagging the server out (obviously not true, but eh) The issue isn't that it's balanced such, it's the issue that you don't need 12 mechs that all are exactly the same item but a different sprite, which makes them the equivalent of spam mail, and no one gives a flying squirrel about winning another honk toy when they just want a singularity to stick in a window or something. I just want to win something besides mech after mech, if I decide to spend half an hour grinding the machine for a Toy sword. |

If I recall, putting all the toymechs in a crate and sending it via cargo nets you a full mech.

Am I the only person who has actually tried to collect ALL of these things? Like... If the round gave me time... Jerry would end up having another whole satchel filled with mech toys. I even used them for RP sometimes.
Plus I really want to be able to organise my whole collection one day and show it off.
