Hence, moving this out of bug reports.
"I flipped this coin 9 times and all came up heads, so the next one MUST be tails" is gambler's fallacy.
"I flipped this coin 10 times and all came up heads, so I suspect the coin is weighted" is a logical deduction.
Gambler's Fallacy is trying to predict the next event, based on previous (independent) ones.
It is fallacious because of conditional probability. GIVEN that we have already seen the sequence HHHHHHHHH (9 heads),
the sequence HHHHHHHHHH (10 heads) is just as likely as the sequence HHHHHHHHHT (9 heads and a tail).
However, looking at the entire picture, it is possible to say whether a large sample of events is behaving in a way that matches the stated probability, or not. 10 heads has a low probability, and while it can happen naturally, suspicion is merited and should be checked out. Otherwise, what is even the meaning of probability?
The problem with the opening post is that we don't know the "stated probability" of Red Cubes to rank up. So we can't tell whether 55 cubes not ranking up is supposed to be a rare event or not.
According to http://www.math.toronto.edu/~jim/MS/Cubing.html , a project on cubing statistics based on analyzing youtube videos of people cubing, it takes on average 16 reds to rank up from Epic to Unique, and 38 from Unique to Legendary. So 33 Reds failing to go E->U is not, unfortunately, particularly rare. And 22 failing to go U->L is to be expected.
That would be 60k nx down the drain.
2. Don't use red cubes to tier up unless during DMT
3. Using red cubes on epic and unique equips when you can buy MCC service for like 20mil each
Nice 50k NX
