Hitting The Wheel Jackpot

Alienscar · September 2022

You're talking about frequency and stuff but I believe it has nothing to do with that. It's most probably just RNG.

I disagree @Doondie the reason I post my jackpot is mostly so I don't forget when I have received it.

This has shown that every three to four weeks I get a jackpot. This shows that a random number generator isn't involved as rng's shouldn't deliver something with a discernible pattern.

Just like you I have noticed that the lollipop is always the last reward to be received from the Sweet Cinema, so that can't be down to 'chance' as you put it or a rng.

Similarly just last month there were loads of posts from people (including me) that had just won the jackpot from the Daily Treat Machine. Definitely not the workings of a RNG.

OK, 3 weeks later, I got the Wheel jackpot this morning again. 🎉

I still don't believe there's a schedule for it though. 🤔

P.S. I'd appreciate a reply to my thread. ☺

So, @Doondie you received the Jackpot again three weeks after your last one and you still don't think there is a three/four week schedule!

I received a Jackpot two days ago as well, but I was too busy to post the screenshot.

At this point, it's still a coincidence to me. If I get it again in 3-4 weeks, I'll probably change my mind. 😁

It just doesn't make sense to be scripted. It should be down to chance. 😐

I haven't missed a day, btw.

Ah well @Doondie as I am sure you know there is no such thing as a coincidence.

I agree it should be down to chance, but if it were down to pure chance we should all be getting more jackpots. Imagining that the Wheel was an eight-sided dice we should be winning a jackpot once in every eight spins. The fact that we don't, coupled with the fact that we don't receive any of the boosters on a one in eight basis means that some 'weight' must have been added to the Wheel.

I believe you've got it wrong - you could throw the dice 100 times and still not get the number you desire.

This doesn't mean they don't increase the chance with every spin though, so eventually we get a jackpot. 🤔

Oh yeah@Doondie, choosing a number that you want to achieve from a dice roll would not be the same probability as just rolling and seeing which number appears. Nonetheless when you roll a single dice each number has an equal chance of being rolled.
