Spare time fun...

What is the lowest possible low?

What is the highest possible high?

Lowest Low:

No matches for 21 days and 2 matches on days 5, 12 and 19, effectively negating the BLB bonus for the entire 25 day period. Day 25 does not matter: 446,875

Highest High:

Match 4 on 21 days days, except for days 8, 16 and 24 in which you match zero and get the BLB. Day 25 does not matter: 497,500

Please feel free to double check my work and assumptions

Blue, I know JN's guide says you can get a RLB once per week, but I've only ever gotten one per round, and you don't necessarily get it on the first day with no matches; it's random (I've gotten it on day 1 and as late as day 10 - maybe later - regardless of how many days with no matches I've had overall). Given my observations, what if you got no matches on days 1-23 and 2 matches on day 24 (so no RLB)? That would give you 445,875 as the lowest possible low. Likewise, 495,500 is the highest possible total if you can only get the RLB once (on day 8 ). Of course, the probability that you get either of these is approximately 1 in 300 trillion (give or take a factor for the probability of getting RLB vs. regular no matches).

I thought about that, Siniri. I may need to go back through this thread to see if any of us received a BLB more than once per round. I agree with your thought that one might never get a BLB at all, which would then lower my minimum estimate by 1,500, or 445,375 as the lowest possible low. I definitely agree that the odds of achieving either of these extreme scores is next to zero. The next question is... what is the average and standard deviation of the total payout? I imagine that it is skewed towards the low end.

I'd like to get off the no-matches broken record train now, please. Then again, I guess I'm testing JN's guide's supposition about how RLB's work...

Well, that's five days in a row now of 0 matches. Getting close to testing whether you can get two RLB's.
