50% chance of something happening doesn't mean that if you do that something 80 times, it will happen 40 of them. 80 is a very small number Blaise.
I am generally the loudest beater of the "it's just random variance" drum. In this case, the sandals are one of 7 colors, and each of me, Pirul, and koncept have each rolled this d7 between 14 and 40 times, and have not rolled this particular number even once. Additionally, as Blaise mentions, the odds of rolling a fair d7 more than 600 times, and getting a "1" just 25 are about the same as me becoming president. Of Mars.
I have only turned in 4 polar bear BODs and got the whole set. It was right around when you first posted on the trade forum wanting to swap, and I thought 'well that wasn't so tough". Now the tapestries, those were a pain! It took me forever to get a south facing one. I had easts in abundance in both light and dark. I don't think I will ever turn in another tapestry BOD. :lol:
I have complete tons of sandal rewards.. I haven't gotten any either. I mostly get Shadow or Bridal. My results mirror what has been stated here.
After doing some research on the issue and with help from Ezekiel and Snapdragon we were able to isolate that a large part of the BOD system is using randomizer calls incorrectly. This was resulting in the first entry in the array being returned an extra 12.5% of the time, while the last item in the array was never being returned. (In the case of the 8 bod sandals) I am testing a fix to have the issue resolved in patch 46.
