    If you got a ship every 10, there wouldn't be much incentive to get more Tickets.
    It took me about 30 Tickets to get even a single ship.

    Did I say 10?
  • WesDoobnerWesDoobner Posts: 761Member Intermediate
    You didn't say 10, nor did Jazzmin say you said 10. He just said you don't get a ship once every ten tickets and that it took him about 30 before he got a ship, which seems to address your issue if you read that far.
    May the winds blow you well

    40 for me last time.  But this time, my luck changed.

    A question, if you go to Vegas, and pull ten times on the slots and never won anything, would your feeling be the same?

    Tickets = lottery = small prize unless you get lucky = you're not lucky all the time.

    It is like in GAMA with Sailor Bottle, luck-based where you get items randomly.
    You choose to gamble this and ofcourse you can't expect always to be lucky...

    I had once more than 50 tries in GAMA to get a ship when I played a lottery :/
    If we would get a ship that often, then most players wouldn't bother then to buy other things in UWC shop.

    Either spend safe or spend risk x]

    I spent over a grand with NM, and didn't get a single ship. I spent around $500 with OGP, without a ship. 

    I then spent my first $20 here for  and got two ships. Yay! Awesome. 30 more tickets later, nothing. Then, 44 more tickets, and only got 1. 

    So, 3 ships in 84 total tickets, for me, that's a 1 in 28 average. So yeah, cry more.

    Ask a psychologist and she'll tell you that it's losing which reinforces the gambling habit - not winning a prize. Opposite to what you'd expect.

    I just can't gamble. I don't have that gene. I'll spend money to buy what I want. But event tickets and sailor's bottles are mini games which don't interest me.

    Lottery ... is illegal for under 18s.

    Anyway, you guys should stop buying into this scam. Even you win a ship, it will disappear soon after the next server reset.

    I got a modified square sail Xebec from my second ever ticket. :3

    I guess I am the luckiest player in the server - 20 Tickets = 10 ships so far
  • KatanauwoKatanauwo Posts: 309Member Intermediate
    And none of ships would matter once the server resets in the next year.

    You know Katana why not give your breath a break. We get tired of hearing you say the same things over and over. You say this BS on every forum. It gets old

    I would spend money on the game even if they told me there would be a reset in a year.
    I consider the amount I spend as expendable entertainment money.
    Katanauwo, do you spend money on food knowing that your hunger will just reset in a few hours! You should stop wasting your money and time on food.
    The game costs me very little in comparison to most entertainment per hour. So even another reset in the future would be fine. I don't look at the time, effort, and money invested as permanent. But instead as temporary entertainment.

    @Culvern,

    It is good that you spend regularly on this game. Maybe you persuade everyone to do the same, afterall it is not expensive at all.

    Then we can have sub without those evil lotto style micro transactions.

    is there  a free ship every PREMIUM TICKET bought ?
  • CulvernCulvern Posts: 646Member Intermediate
    I must say that I am a creature of habit. Once I have a decent ship I stick with it for a lloooonnggg time.
    So my spending ends up being mostly on shared storage and speed boosts. Which I can get for less the $20 a month.
    I have spent more since the reboot to get the damn tickets in a crazed frenzy, but have since calmed down and settled on the mediocre ships I have for now.
