I would very much like to dig again tonight.

Okay I'll try this again. Let's dig once more, then I'll cut and run. (Day 11- Dig) (Day 12- Run!)

I guess I'll dig again, but I'm beginning to think I'm a jinx

If you're going to be around on day 12, I'd prefer you keep your action secret until then. I've said that I don't mind people queueing up actions but that's for the times when they know they won't be on TLS in advance.

The RNG really doesn't like miners. The game's reached an interesting point, though: of the two active parties, I'm not sure which I'd rather be in. Additionally, there are now enough players outside the mines to start a third party.

 

[Roger]

I'm bugging out, guys.

 

[Octo]

Dig again.....I guess?

 

[Keveh Kins]

I'm gonna dig again against my better judgement.

I've got the same sinking feeling in my belly that I get when I play poker and go blindly all in on a terrible hand...=/

 

[Clement Rage]

Sorry folks, busy day, and when my internet connection is moody it sometimes requires a significant input of time to do anything. If I'm allowed dig again today, I will.

Ooh, I like ark dragons, shame to miss the last monster. Now all we're missing is the Turks.

 

[Flintlock]

Yes, you can dig again, providing you can get enough players together to form a new party.

More maths: In 13 digs (excluding the first day of each expedition), there have been 10 failures. The chance of getting at least 10 failures was just 4.6%.

Another way of looking at it: in 13 digs, there have been 10 monster appearances (we're still waiting for the Turks to show up). The chance of getting at least 10 monsters was a miniscule 0.78%.

In other words, you've all been very, very unlucky so far!

 

[Starling]

May I suggest a party called the Gullwings? I've been having technical difficulties as well.

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

I'll go digging with the Gullwings if they're setting out today.

No technical difficulties for me -- just an extremely demanding new job.

 

[Claymore]

Wow, what rotten luck. Dig please!
