Why are they so random?

They don't really benefit from the non randomness of the quakerinos :( Not sure what the motivation is to make the last one always so late in the month.

No 2nd earthquake this month, was on p99 stream here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

I heard that on that stream too Draco. They changed it to make them have a chance to skip so people can’t anticipate when they will be.

How does one tell their family they can't spend time with them because they're waiting for pixel monsters to appear on a 1999 online video game?

Why not just randomly generate two #s 1-31(or how lever many days for that month) and just set them off accordingly could even do the same with the time once day decided.... would be really easy, if even volunteer to do the rolls :)

That's totally how it was said its going to be done. You don't believe that's the case?

If one of those numbers is 31, though, then on Day 30, everyone knows there will be an earthquake the next day. Then I guess it would be a cluster***?

Hopefully the guys n' gals families understand. They were ignored over a simple date mistake. And they get to be put on ignore tomorrow too. Perhaps call in sick to work.
:rolleyes:

[Doil_Boil]

I would prefer random 1-30 on a daily basis, with 29 and 30 being quake - everything else no quake. Could really make things feel random.

[Baler]

Does anyone have everyday/time of every past quake?
Can we make a chart. see if there is a pattern or some insight..

Baler, I hardly knew 'er.

I'll get my lawyer Jackie Chiles on the phone. You have nothing to worry about. :)

All you need to know is 80% + of earthquakes on p1999 have landed within 1 workweek from the end of the month and or last day of month

This is as many as we've kept track of.

The same way you tell them you can't spend time with them because you are talking shit on a forum dedicated to a 1999 online video game.

I had to ask because I ain't got no family. they disowned me back in 2014.

update for non RNF readers -

oic, sorry about that.

I've been in North Carolina this week helping with issues related to Hurricane Florence. Soo, I was not at home to notice the simulated respawn alert.

This system is supposed to be automated, but we haven't had a patch since last year. So to date, I've just rolled 2 datetimes in a local alert system.

Should be back within a couple weeks.

There will be no quake

There is definitely a pattern there that almost infers that its not random. The 2nd earthquakes only appear in the last few days of the month. Im relatively new to p99, is this how its supposed to be?

[Ketu Garyx]

"Random" is a bit of a running joke really for the last year.

[Nathaniel]

Maybe that's exactly how they do it and one of those numbers actually were 31. In September. :)

[Swish2]

If someone can decipher the quake pattern, I'd like you to have a go at the powerball numbers for the next draw on the basis of the last 100 draws (and share them).

The pattern is random from the day nilbog remebers to do the roll which is usually not the first of the month. I don’t think you should buy lotto tickets

[trite]

Yeah, it was very obvious to everyone raiding this last year that they were not random and were manually kicked off. Otherwise that would have been some crazy variance, the way they skewed toward the end of the month. (Not a single quake in the first 10 days of any month)

[ScaringChildren]

GMs DID NOTHING WRONG

[Erati]

I blame <Core> for this non-repop, it probably has something to do with their inability to raid.

I heard sympathy for <Core> kept nilbog from pressing the earthquake button. If they can’t raid no one can!

[Nexii]

Earthquakes take place in the Earth's <Core>
This earthquake was prevented because of a <Tempest> in the Carolinas
Coincidence? I think not
