A Question of True Randomness
I know this subject has been beaten to death, revived, and then beaten to death again, but I was idly watching the messages for what players had been getting from the wheel today and I noticed something.
Some days, there are a greater number of certain things being received and they seem to get won in droves.
For example, either yesterday or the day before, it was Advanced Tax Policies and Speech Texts. Today, most of the wheel rewards have been Michelangelo's Scripts and resource speed-up items (Blast Furnace and Double Saw, for example). When I expand the chat box to its maximum height, there are TEN recipients of Scripts alone. To be honest, I can't really recall the last time I even saw anyone win one of those from the wheel at all, much less ten people in a span of about 60 seconds.
There seems to be a pattern to what is getting rewarded from the wheel, and it doesn't seem to be truly random at all (as if anyone really thinks it's totally random in the first place).
