Talk:Extract Jelly

Could we gather here info about drop rate of the jellies ? I saw in the forums that drops happened on casts:
1, 2, 4, 7, 19, 20, 36 and 41
1,3,4,6,11,15,29,48,75.
my own data

1, 3, 5, 7, 12, 17, 28, 45 (only hippies + 2 digitized scary pirates= 7 stench jellies+1 spooky jelly at 12)
1, 3, 7, 10, 13, 53 only hippies

Some suggested that extracting the same kind of jellies would lower the chance of drop faster than trying to extract different kinds. Any spading on this ?--Akahad (talk) 03:42, 8 March 2017 (UTC)

I was curious about this, so I tried extracting exclusively from one element until I got a jelly, then switched to a different element until I got the next jelly, and so on in a predetermined cycle (hot spooky stench sleaze cold). Here's the number of attempts (not cumulative) each jelly took:

	1st jelly	2nd	3rd	4th	5th	6th	7th
Day 1	1	3	3	19	12	4	16
Day 2	1	1	7	11	15	1	12
Day 3	1	1	2	2	13	65	-
Day 4	1	1	4	11	14	53	-
Day 5	1	1	2	3	1	48	-
Day 6	1	1	1	5	1	1	29
Day 7	1	1	1	2	11	31	-
Day 8	1	4	1	5	7	27	-
Day 9	1	3	5	9	9	82	-
Day10	1	1	2	1	4	14	-
Average	1	1.7	2.8	6.8	8.7	32.6

Compare this to days when I extracted only one element (stench):

	1st jelly	2nd	3rd	4th	5th	6th	7th
Day 11	1	3	9	1	1	4	2
Day 12	1	1	9	4	6	19	3
Day 13	1	6	9	1	6	9	9
Day 14	1	1	6	3	4	36	-
Day 15	1	4	1	3	9	3	17
Day 16	1	6	2	1	2	14	35
Day 17	1	1	2	5	8	6	22
Day 18	1	5	1	2	6	6	4
Day 19	1	2	1	2	1	1	11
Day 20	1	2	5	5	5	15	9
Average	1	3.1	4.5	2.7	4.8	11.3	~12.4

I'm seeing a lot of random variation and not a lot of evidence that extracting a single element is really slower. On multi-element days, the 2nd and 3rd extracts were faster, but the 4th through 6th jellies had a much higher average number of attempts. The 6th jelly ranged all the way from 1 to 82 attempts. So there's a lot of swinginess here. Maybe somebody who knows more math than I can draw more conclusions from these numbers. --Prestige (talk) 08:19, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
