Stealth Update: The Festival Games have new titles!

Charmed: Win 50,000 tickets in games games of chance

Hapless: Lose 5,000 games games of chance

Not sure if they count for KoaBD, but they are account specific, not character specific, so you should go for both.

The easiest way to get it is to buy lots of tickets, then keep playing the 2 ticket game over and over (AFK is recommended).

I'm at 100 lost games in 1hour. I'll get there eventually.

Also, the best way to get the charmed title is to play the 10 ticket game and stand on the center (you have a 5/9 chance of winning). However, since you lose more, it'll be very costly.

make sure to bring some ale to pass the time if youre not afk

working three titles now while reading the forums

I've won two thousand tickets in the past hour. Fifty thousand sounds attainable.

I've been standing on one of the middle side rings on the Nine Rings game. It seems to be winning me the most when it hits me, and still losing a fair amount of time (151 games and counting).

The ale idea is a good one. Might hunt me down some Hunter's.

I must retract this statement, >.> go go gadget idiot.

The progression towards these new titles show up in the Titles tab of the Hero window, like any other title.

heres a frightening idea, there may be multiple tiers, like the drunkard.

Across The Battle · Jun 30, 2006, 04:49 AM // 04:49

That's possible. But still, the requirements for the first tier are quite high.

As I've said, it takes quite a lot of time for either title. It takes atleast 24 hours of straight gambling time to get either title. First tier of Drunkard is 16 hours.

Also, when would the next event be to obtain this title? It wouldn't be fair to end it without being able to get a rank 2...(then again, the Skill Hunter titles...)

Also, I've switched to the 10 ticket games. I notice I win more. 5/9 > 7/16.

LiQuId StEeL · Jun 30, 2006, 04:52 AM // 04:52

Started with 8 full stacks of tickets on the 10 ticket game, and now I'm sitting pretty at around 10 full stacks. Corners are a bigger gamble, but the payoff seems to be working for me.

I'll leave it going overnight, and see where I end up.

my god i think they are asking us to be afk...

Solar Light · Jun 30, 2006, 05:03 AM // 05:03

what makes this sad for me is that these will be the first titles i gain.

Kijik Oni Hanryuu · Jun 30, 2006, 05:04 AM // 05:04

hey ill go afk after I farm enough orbs's for my mask, but I'm not even gonna be able to be on during this event spare a couple hours over the course of like three days lol, I do have another way of doing this tho, can't say anything about it.

Solar light I loled on that, it would be the first for me too, lets start a club: the "First titles while gambling!" club lol.

snikerz · Jun 30, 2006, 05:13 AM // 05:13

spent 50k on tickets, i'm definenly going for it

jaibas17 · Jun 30, 2006, 05:16 AM // 05:16

Center

Center is 5/9 (56%) chance of winning. Mid-Corners is a 4/9 (44%) chance of winning. Corners is a 3/9 (33%) chance of winning.

Math is absolute.

center seems best for titles - you stay around a steady number of tickets, lose some, gain some.

tuna-fish_sushi · Jun 30, 2006, 05:25 AM // 05:25

center at 9 rings is best for lucky title where as anywhere on the 16 rings is good for unlucky

Solar Light · Jun 30, 2006, 05:26 AM // 05:26

my current win and loss ratio is rather close, been at it for 2.5 hours i think, got a tenth of the lucky and a 15th of the unlucky, the ratios prolly wiggle a bit for each person but they proboably stay near a same average gain.

BTW, im running a beting area for my allience, they bet on weather i get lucky or unlucky first =p
