    How many Mog Bonanza marbles have you purchased!?

    Same as the title topic, as I personally have 80 marbles collected across many mules & accounts using "www.random.org" for the numbering method.

    How many do you have ready for June 15th?

    30 did random for two mules and main 0~9 /random 0~9 for numbers, since wanted statue for my mog and was too lazy to come up with different method at time.

    Last year, I did exactly 100 to guarantee a rank 4 prize, choosing the first 3 numbers the same on every marble and every combination of the last 2. This year, I decided I really didn't want to reactivate the extra mules or spend hours running around on mules to pick up marbles... So I ended up doing 10. lol

    70 marbles.

    Every character has the last digits 0-9 all used. Each character then has a varying second digit 1-7 were used. Should give me really good odds of getting Rank 4 or better.

    I did 50 marbles and covered a 100 number stretch by skipping semi-randomly. Made sure that my main will get a rank 5 though.

    I just did ten each on my main + 2 mules, total of 30.

    I made sure to guarantee a rank 5 prize on each one.

    Since they changed the price/rewards and this year's bonanza wasn't aimed at bringing a lot of gil into the economy, it's hard to justify paying even a $3 pittance per mule for an extra 10 marbles. The only way the bonanza becomes a fantastic deal is if you can cash in for one of the great rare/ex prizes in rank 2/3.

    110. Was planning to purchase 30 more on my ex-husband's characters, but he got that pesky "Oh you had a chargeback so we're LM-17ing you" shit so I couldn't get on there to do it.

    Guaranteed Rank 4 prize (again) for the win.

    ~112, guarenteed Tier 4 at least.

    2 on my Unicorn mule cause it was a pain in the ass just to get the 4k buying 2 marbles considering stacks of crystals sold for like 300-500g (I'm used to ~1k each)

    I bought 30.

    Even though the chance of getting rank 1 goes down crazily after the first marble you buy, it's not real money I'm playing with anyway. So I bought as many as I could. For the record I really don't care whats in my mog house so rank 5 is kinda pointless to me. SE making storage like it is screams out "don't care about how your mog house looks, storage is the only thing that matters!"

    In the real lottery I just buy one ticket for the classic lotto per week. Buying more increases your chances by about nothing so I don't bother.

    170 marbles (+10 marbles on Ragnarok server, lolz, watch me win there). I didn't bother with a guaranteed rank4. I just used one of those randomizer sites that gave me the option of generating a 5 digit, non unique, random number.

    On a couple of my non-mule characters I did go for a guaranteed rank5 though. Maybe I'll get a statue or one of those fun fights.
