JP "bonanza" compared to the NA/EU

[Habu]

So is there any reason why the JP bonanza is rewarding the JP rank 1 WINNERS (that's right winners more than one it seems) 99 relic/empy/mythic WITH afterglow, while NA/EU get one winner with the level 90 version?

Sorry if this has been posted somewhere else.

cause SE favors their JP playerbase more than the do the rest of their customers, it's not just this, the evidence has be brought to light for years. there are several in game items that were acquired in japan only at conventions/contests and the like.

Way to go SE. Way to make your NA and EU community feel alienated and less valued than your JP player base.

Because they are NOT guaranteed to even get ONE winner. Whereas NA and EU are guaranteed at least ONE Winner of Rank 1 (more for NA).

Do you seriously believe they wont have at least one winner in the JP contest? Please~

Guess we didn't get claim on decent/fair treatment in this....

To Hatcher's point:
If the Mog Bonanza was that segment where Tanaka chose the Numbered Balls then gauging by the crowd reaction there was only a 2nd place winner. Unless I'm mistaken and the bonanza was instead that segment where they pulled those slips of paper towards the end of the 2nd day's live stream. In which case it could have possibly been a unknown number of winners. I'm more inclined to believe it was the numbered balls segment because it had 5th place showcasing 1 digit and 1st place showcasing 5 digits. The 1st digit for 1st place was a 0 so its possible no one won.

The above is of course assuming they even streamed the Bonanza segment, its possible they did it while the stream cut to those cool 8bit chiptune tracks

Yes, because it's a GAMBLE, it's not a guarantee as they pick numbers RANDOMLY.

Surely you know how random works?! They're not going to go "That's the six numbers, oh no prize 1 winners, lets pick again"

[Habu]

No please tell me how random works.

To participate in the Nomad Mog Bonanza, you pick 1 number from 00000 to 99999, which is a 1 in 100000 chance of winning. Unless everyone that attend Vanafest collude to pick a different number, to even have a 50% chance that anyone will win rank 1 at all require about 70000 people to have attended Vanafest (0.99999^70000 = 0.49 chance of no one winning).

Do you think 70000 people attended Vanafest? Even if they did, the chance there is of anyone winning at all is 50%.
