Sorry, deleted the previous post, no idea what happened with the formatting, but only adds to my concerns the game has it in for me :P
My point was that I had a significant string of more failures than successes on >60% chances which led to acquiring quite a bit of scandal. This makes me a bit reluctant to trust the game any more...

Oh, I'm sure the percentages are accurate for any one player. I just mean that there's no issue with the RNG as a whole, so strings of bad luck are just that and not any inherent problem with the game.
Of course. The game hates us. We know that
I am going for an Impossible Theorem at the moment. That requires blowing 312 echoes worth of incunabulae(?) for a possible 1-6 searing enigmas.
My results so far:
1,1,1,1,3,5,5
Make of that what you will, but if that 3 was another 1...I might well have given up!

There are 11 in the group. Beyond that there's absolutely no reason to go through all that trouble. I'm just doing it for fun.

Yeah, I'm only at 10 right now. I'll get up to 15 (that is indeed the cap) eventually. Bit lazy at the moment. Probably doesn't help that I plan to get 11 vials of M_____'s B____, so I don't have much incentive to max it out anytime soon.
