The Awakened won. I heard that the big group joined Sway, same as us, so I guess one of the spoiler groups joined Awakened. Oh, well. I didn't personally battle much, so I definitely didn't pull my weight.

Actually, it turns out the big group joined Awakened, not Sway, and they've teamed up with another big group. Maybe we should try to figure out who they're joining next time?

Sway, Seekers, Order.

I was too tired when I got home last night, so I didn't manage to get any battles in and have no idea who won. Oh, well.

Sorry you did not battle, Siniri. Seekers won.

I actually did more than usual battling this time because I was home sick on Thursday last week.

I went with the bank boon... before collecting interest! :)

Brutes, Thieves, Sway. It's been a while since the last Brutes upset, so I feel like we're due, but they have such terrible boons (I've been swamped, and Wheel boon is only good if you can spin a few times a day - I've barely been logging in once a day, definitely not long enough to spin WoMon even once...).

I'm probably going to join sway, just because they have decent boons. If the bandwagon goes otherwise, so be it. :) Maybe I'll even remember to battle this weekend...

I went with Brutes. I have a few friends that still need that avi, and I want to even out my battle stats on Sway since I usually always pick them. :)

I missed the sign-up by about 45 minutes. Good luck to all!

I also ended up going with Brutes. I couldn't check in here to see what you guys did (I signed up on my phone, and barely was able to get the site to load because of lag...).

Brutes win! Went with wheel boon.

# Spins, Gross Winnings, (Net Ave. Winnings)
WoMed: 33x, 32,000 (870)
WoEx: 16x, 10,055 (128)
WoK: 4x, 4200 (650)
WoMon: 2x, 200 (-50)
Gross Total: 46,455
Cost of Spins: 13,200
Net Total: 33,255 NP (605/spin)

In one set of spins, I won as much as I sometimes do in a week's worth of Cartographication (sorry, I'm going to continue to "misspell" that one because "graph" is a common word segment; "griph" is not).

I also decided to experiment with WoExtra this week. I have no stats on whether it's a net positive or negative, so I'll keep this data separate, since it would skew the results from the other wheels:

Spins: 4 (400,000 NP)
Winnings: 200,002 NP
Net Total: -199,998 NP
Net Average: -49,999.5 NP/spin

As of right now, my net for WoMed is about 2x my long-term average. WoE is about half my average, WoK is much better than average (long-term is slightly negative), and WoMon is about 500 NP less than my long-term average.

Edit: End of the week final report!

Wheel # Spins Gross Wins Cost of Spins Net Wins Net Ave
Med 113 84,030 11,300 72730 644
Excite 56 50,291 28,000 22,291 398
Know 14 7,140 5,600 1,540 110
Mon 11 5,900 1,650 4,250 386
Total 194 147,361 46,550 100,811 520

Extra 14 767,671 1,400,000 -632,329 -45,166 + avatar

Mediocrity finished substantially higher than my long-term average. Next were Excitement (a little high) and Mon (a little low), with Know coming out positive, which was a nice surprise.

Extra eclipsed the results of all the other wheels. I want to keep spinning to collect more data on it, but I can't really afford to do it for too long - unless I win a "big" prize (the biggest here was +5 strength, worth about 250k at my current training level).

Great effort Siniri. Congrats on your avatar. *clap* (We reallly need a clap emoji).

I also went with the wheel boon, just trying for the WoEx and WoK avatars. No luck this time.

New round:
Order
Seekers
Awakened

Really like the Order here, as I still have cookies.
