Quote: Edited by: IZON on 16/03/2004 08:08:37 Isn't that the whole point of lotteries? You have a 'statistical' chance of winning, not a 'guranteed' chance.
Generally I aggree, it's odd that low RP's seem to be winning the lion share of BP's
Has anyone with very high RP's actually tried 'restarting' their R&D research with the same agent (or even moving to a new agent)? - You might be pleasantly surprised.
The whole point is there should be no reason to have to 'restart' their R&D research because from what I thought doing long term research should give me a higher chance of getting a bp.
If I knew that restarting my research would give me a higher chance to get a bp dont you think most ppl would do it? We are just curious how random the bp system is after all I know it can happen but most likely lightning shouldn't strike twice and that sounds like what it has been doing more often then not. 
I personally dont have a prob not getting a bp yet cause I knew when I started this my chances of getting one were small, but 2 bpos for 1 person... and from the same agent.... its stories like this that make ppl question the system.
:edit: removed the word 'broken' since this post started before papa smurf posted ....

Actually hearing about stories from 8-10 ppl isnt that bad on a server of thousands.... it just for every story you hear from 1 person on the forum there probably another 100 or more ppl that dont post their same story on forum cause either they dont use the forums or just dont want to post it .... or maybe not.
The Devs just have to be going nuts from us on the forums questioning everything they come up with.

Quote: Toss in the consperacy theorists
Oh I hear someone talking about me.... if you dont believe in consperacy theories then you are not looking hard enough. hehehe 
This was thread just wondering if there was any errors in the distrubtion of t2 bpos... I guess I remember the devs saying once they wanted to make it so the winners of t2 bpos will have a chance of monopolies on them and by giving ppl multiple bpos this will happen. j/k
I mean after all we were just questioning the system trying to make sure it was working correctly.... for all the hard work CCP puts in they have been known to make mistakes. Some never get caught until players speak up and question the system.

Quote: Maybe it is some bug... The same kind responsible for some people being unable to recieve implants.I have been playing 10 months (about) and mainly running agents - never seen an implant
Do missions for me and I can say for sure you will recieve an implant, once you get a t2 frigate bp for me I can give you an implant or 2.
