Quote:Also I think a 25$ card should've had a slightly better chance than a 10$ card, now ill probably just by 2 10$ cards instead of the 25$ I was going to buy, sure im out 5$, but I can manage, and it increases my odds by 50%
Say you're deciding to spend $50 on NX this weekend. You'll be participating in this event, and you'll have to decide if it's to your advantage purchasing $10 game cards or the $25 ones....
Example:
(2) $25 game cards : 2 separate 1/100 chances to double 25k NX to 50k NX (1.99%)
(5) $10 game cards : 5 separate 1/100 chances to double 10k NX to 20k NX (4.90%)
Yes, your odds of winning are better with option 2, but you will earn less NX if your card does come out as a winner.
Regardless what choice you want to go with, you have better odds of hitting the 1 Million NX jackpot with option #2. ^_^
(BTW, the probability of doubling your mesos with 100 game cards is about 63.4%)
