Conspiracy theories...lol

It'll drop with the same rate as last year. So maybe another ~50 will enter the game.

I LOL hard when I see people spamming wtb MPB @ 300-500e. Silly dreamers.

Noooooo, I already passed 100 runs and no bear ;_;

Maybe we have to wait 25 mins before opening the chest (notice the 30 minute candy in the screenshot is close to running out)

Could someone give a link to GWx2 and tell me how to use it, please? Also, I would appreciate if someone could give me hints on how to run the quest properly while using the software. Thanks in adavance! And good luck for all those who are still fighting against the odds (like me).

So... flip a coin 8 times and it comes up heads 8 times.

Does that mean that the odds of getting tails the 9th time is any less then the previous 8? No.


Anyway, we all knew the odds were low. And they'd have to be. If the odds weren't low, these things wouldn't be valuable (and 99% of people complaining just want this thing so they can become instant millionares, the other 1% are the nutso hoarders and completionists who will actually pay 1000e for a mini).

I was just saying that because, if I remember correctly, all the mini polar bear drops I've heard of last year happened before the lucky person's 100-150th run.

The odds are ridiculously low.
I don't belong to either "group" you mentioned, like I said before, I want one of those bears because they are super cute, I would not sell them, but I also would never pay the amount of money they go for, even if I could.
I'd be just as happy a camper(if I got one) if they were white minis and a common drop.
Right now though, I am happy for all the CC shards I'm getting

I've been playing for over 4 years, and just bought my first FoW armor. I don't farm ecto. So I obviously don't have the money to pay 1000e for one, but if I did get one I wouldn't sell it either. I want one to have. Did over 500 runs last year, no bear, don't know how many this year, stopped counting. Still no bear and over 2 stacks of shards. And sorry if that person I took a screen shot of wasn't really selling for 550e. People said they hadn't seen it and thought I would do them a favor to show that it was in the party search window.

I don't know how I was able to farm this run 200+ times last year?
I can barely stay online for more than 15 minutes this year.

but id have to search old threads and cant be a$$ rightnow.
have made almost 150,000xp for my survivor and thats why i'm doing the runs

I did around 25-30 runs on the sunday (IIRC) and only around 5 yesterday (my guild keeps dragging me to the UW, lol). No bear.

I'll keep doing a few casual runs, I'm not on vacation so there isn't a lot of free time to run, but I shall try a few more.

PS: And happy b-day Kaori, best of luck with the bear.
