Talk:Tiny slimy cyst
I'm fairly certain that every type of marble can be obtained from this. Also, this may just be strange RNG, but I seem be be getting higher-class marbles when I multi-use these things. I've only ever gotten the brown marbles from single-use. --LegendaryBard 10:45, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
- It is probably strange RNG. My first marble was the beach ball marble, and that was gotten from single-use.
- Perhaps the marble frequencies are related to their stage in marble creation?

- I agree that this would make sense: 50% drop green peawees, 25% brown crocks, 12.5% red chinas, and so on. The spading numbers below are starting to look like that...--Parse 13:35, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
Shall we start collecting data? I'll assume for now that multi-use has no effect. --TheArchivist 18:35, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
Why is it that only the reds are multi-useable?--Crae Z 23:18, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
- They all are...--Yungera 23:29, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
I've received a Black Catseye from opening one, but have only received one so far. I haven't combined any of them. I think it's just very rare RNG. --JoseCuervo
I got a Big Bumboozer from a tiny cyst today. That was a nice surprise. So, it's possible.--Quine 00:05, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
I would venture a guess that the probability of receiving a certain marble is half as likely as the the previous lower quality with greens starting at little more then 50%. This keeps things even with the power of two theme.
