Good luck with that. And good luck to anyone else who tries to use one as well.

Funny. But you won't get 48 members. ;)

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

did devlin cheat to get his 1380 wins?

My guess is you'll get 360 back without the transfer fee included resulting in a net loss of around 700.

I will send 21, and you'll receive 20.
If you get 40, send me 21.
If you get 100, send me 53.
I want to get a net 50% profit from your box. :)
You couldn't have made that sound more confusing.

Mineral tax is automatically added to what you send. You send 20 us minerals, but the tax also takes 1 mineral away.

If we get a 40 box, we send 20 back, which will charge us a 5% fee (1 mineral) while doing so.
If we get 100, we send 50, which will charge us a 5% fee (3 minerals, rounded) while doing so.

We don't actually say "Send 53 minerals" when filling out the form.

Did you know that even "skilled" stock brokers or programs can still only predict correctly 57% or less of the time? They run simulations to see what is most like to preform. So in closing, since Payne isn't doing *any* research you're better luck guessing.

Yes, but I have no minerals to invest :)



None.

I'm in. ~700.



None.

Jan 28 2011, 11:47 pm Raitaki Post #37



I sign up :kame:
Also, when you say "guesstimate of the minerals I'd get back", do you mean only the minerals that we send back to you, or the total?
Minerals payne gets back: ~180 (life.)
Total minerals from boxes: ~350?



None.

Once upon a time, the magic boxes were set up to create MASSIVE mineral inflation, that is, the amount of minerals that came out of the boxes were far greater than the ones that went into it. Moose didn't like this and I'm pretty sure the current setup will always result in a net loss. So you're really wasting your time.

He means the total he is supposed to get back in regards to the rules posted in the topic. So your first guess.

[09:57 pm] payne -- I already know. Have you read the introduction? I want to waste my minerals. >_>
[09:56 pm] Roy -- I'm willing to bet that the Magic Boxes has a lower-than 50% payout rate, payne. You're gonna lose a ton of minerals.

Oh, use of the word 'profit' was misleading. Carry on.
