    Woohoo looks like every four months is the new cycle of receiving a jackpot.

    Well that is a nice surprise, Hopefully my average is back to once a month now instead of once every four months.

    Yep, got another one of those the other day.

    Landed on that one ~17 or 18 times (something like that) in nearly 3½ years.

    *yawn*

    It's no big deal, keep playing (or maybe not)...

    Well that is a pretty good average which is the point I am trying to make. The wheel seems less about chance and more about a programmed result.

    Yay three weeks after my last jackpot I have got another one. It is noticeable though how many people have posted to say they have received the Treat Machine and Booster Wheel jackpots.

    Treat machine jackpot was "given" recently to most of the players (if not all) last week. It was not by chance. May be some promotional scheme. One of my friend received it on at least three of his accounts and he has 4 or 5 accounts.

    Agreed @Rox7383 the 'chance' of winning a jackpot seems to be not a chance at all but a pre-programmed release schedule.

    Yes! Just shy of four weeks later hit the jackpot again. Better than nothing I suppose, but I wish the win rate was a bit higher.

    Hi! @Alienscar 😊 I won the wheel jackpot twice. I started to play this game at 17 July 2022. But have never won the treat machine jackpot yet.

    Hey dude,

    You seem very enthusiastic about the Booster Wheel jackpot. I also got it a week ago. That's not why I'm writing though. ☺

    You're talking about frequency and stuff but I believe it has nothing to do with that. It's most probably just RNG. Coming from an MMO computer game - TERA - that, very sadly, got shut down on its 10th anniversary (may Candy Crush be around for another 10 years! 😇), I've learned a thing or two about "chance".

    This said, there's no frequency on a personal level. It's like percentage chance to get the jackpot. Say, 5% chance for it would mean guessing one out of 5 numbers among 100 numbers overall. It's like rolling a dice. The catch is if you get the jackpot today, that means, say, 100 other people won't get it, so things remain balanced as a whole, i.e. they aren't interested in giving the jackpot to too many people at once.

    As for the wheel itself - it's just an animation to illustrate the result of what the server told your game. When you tap "Stop", your game sends a reward request (a packet) to the server. The algorithm almost instantly decides what reward you'll get and sends a reply to your game (another packet) which then makes the wheel stop at the pre-determined spot. At least that's how it worked with the computer game.

    Of course, "chance" in CC could work differently. For instance, I've noticed that the final Sweet Cinema reward is almost always a lollipop hammer which is way, way too much of a coincidence.

    Hope this helps. ☺
