This is a fact. I have done so many i dont even want to say and no rat. Would have been money ahead just sell and buy the rat outright. Now i have neither.

3 toons went through all quests, then I got ~250 tokens through rollerbeetle (thank god I don't suck too much at those) which gives what? 450 + 250 = 700 tokens (I got some fortunes using paper scissors game ) so I assume I opened about 240 fortunes.
No rat. fantastic.
No more ways to get tokens either, since I can't be asked to do anymore racing, not mentioning making a new char and leveling it up to level 10!
And I really hoped for a rat this year, since I opened 300 odd last year and finished with no pigs. ~~
I also gave away all but one pig during christmas. Grrr. I hope that we will get a rat for completing a course or something like that, otherwise I will have to buy it. /sights

Weird. I only did 4 quests, got 100 tokens, exchanged them for fortunes (by that time I had no idea about the odds of getting one), opened my 33 fortunes and got the rat on one of them.
So i guess I should consider myself lucky.

:O I have a pet snake too!
Shame you can't get THIS rat as quick as a walk to the pet shop, though...
Judging from posts in here of bad luck, I'm not going to TRY.

Thanks :-) Me too. I get bored of doing repetitive things quite quickly. Rats for everyone!

opened about 40, got one in my first ten tries. All my fortunes are now going to those red bag thingies.
Sounds like, generally, most people are getting theirs in their first 40-50, but if not, it's a pretty long haul

I'm going to give up and waste no more of my time on this stupid thing. I thought this year getting the mini would be better than last year.
Lunar fortune tokens give me only rubbish, I have had enough.
It was said that we have 0,33% chances to get the celestial rat .... my foot!
I have used 8 of my characters and got zilck, zero, nada.
Good luck to you all and gratz to everyone who got it.

250+ fortunes... no rat. Now I'm out of characters and I think my wife wants me to rejoin the real world so I gave up and bought one for 20k. Looks like all that incidental cash from my farming the Lightbringer/Sunspear titles came in handy.
