    That's a nice looking Mini Cactpot

    So I get a card with the 7 already showing, I scratch off the 8 and the 9, and think 'Wow, I know which row I'm going after'. Oh RNG, you clever girl ^^

    That, I believe, was the OP's point. And if I had an MGP for every time something along these lines has happened to me, I could probably buy my Fenrir mount twice over by now...

    Were we born to fight and die? Sacrificed for one huge lie?
    Are we heroes keeping peace?
    Or are we weapons?
    Pointed at the enemy so someone else can claim a victory?

    I considered this, but then when I saw how odd-looking fenrir is on someone else riding around on it and I decided to save my MGP for the new mounts/rewards coming in 3.1. The tortoise doesn't look too bad though, I may splurge for that while waiting.

    Same, I'm hoarding all my MGP for whatever we have coming up in 3.1. If it's nothing good, I'll buy a tortoise. :3

    The one time I didn't take a row with a 1 showing, had 9 and 8 went for that one of course the 1 was 10k and the 9 and 8 was not a 7. Ever since I always go for a diagonal scratch just to see what each row has.

    Obviously everyone should play however they want, but I think statistically you're better off going for a 1-2-3 whenever it is possible. You can always reveal the spaces such that, if a 1-2-3 exists, you'll know exactly which row it has to be. As long as you play that way, I'm pretty sure you'll get more MGP over time by always going for the 10k.

    I agree. This is the way I play. In one week last month I had two separate days where two tickets had 10k on the board and a third day when all three of my tickets had 10k rewards. I'd regret it if I played the cactpot any other way. Now if only I could figure out the Jumbo version
