Is the game rigged? Cleared 2 games by myself on the 1st day of playing, switched over to the Auto Player, now I'm at like 120+ games without having cleared it once

[GreenScissors]

It's a game of chance so sometimes that'll happen

[pkdust]

I think i use this program daily, its decent money for a game... setting the speed at like .10 seconds. HAR HAR. i bet this looks legit

How long does it take to get a golden trophy?

Great program, but i realize that you can't check off "stop playing once you've reached 5000 nps" or anything else for that matter in the program settings.

i'm using a mac if that helps, OS X

I am on a mac as well and I'm having the same issue.

About a couple of weeks, with a bit of luck.

I think Pyramids limits you to winning 5,000 NP a day.

i love this program very much ,i truly appreciate and respect the effort input by programmer .

i am writing to report that i notice a bug(?) in the program . i spent about 10 hours to proof this bug exist .

after a few proof ,i mean i sit in front of the program hours and write down the result , i am kinda sure that the following situation happens .

whenever it wins a game ,i.e.current streak 1 , there is a unbelievably high probability that the program "misclick" one card .
for example , i have a 3 in the pyramid , and i draw a 4 , the program log show me"clicked on a 4" ,but actually it draw a new card for me .

This kind of "misclick" only exist when current streak is 1 (sry i cant proof will it appear when streak 2 or higher due to this bug) ,it seems everything going cool when streak is 0 .

The existence of this bug highly increase the time required for a gold trophy .

After i run the program for 5xx-6xx games ,i notice the winning probability is a bit higher than 2.5% ,it win once about every 35-38 games ,and this % seems legit ,when i played 700 ,800 ,900 ,1000 ,1100 games ,it's still 2.6% - 2.7% .
Thus ,i personally estimated that about 1500-1600 games ,i should get a 2-streak ,it may various but shouldn't be more than 2000 games ,i mean theoretically .

The fact is , now i played 2243 games ,and cleared it 63 times ,about 2.8% winning rate , equals to win once in every 35-36 games ,but i never get 2 streak or above .
Easy maths show us 36x36=1269 ,2243 is almost a double of 1269 . actually 48x48 will give us roughly 2300 or so .
What i mean is ,i studying statistic degree in college , and i firmly believe that the result i get is far away from natural random variation .That means something wrong .

So ,i sit in front of the program ,and i personally see more than 5 times this bug appear ,100% when current streak is 1 .



With theoretically and practically proof ,

I am sorry to report that the above bug exist .

And i refuse to believe that it is because i ain't an advanced member so some function of the program don't work probably .
I mean i don't mind to pay for advanced member , i truly hope my money support can help programmers modify better program for us .=]

Yours truly

I am on a mac as well and I'm having the same issue.

As am I, I can't check anything in the "settings" like "stop paying at.." The only time I'm able to click stuff like that is with the cellbock autoplayer. If there's anything that would solve the problem that be great! (I'm using an elite proxy if that does anything...)

Is the autoplayer already running? If it's already playing games, you can't change the settings. That's the only thing I know that might affect it.

I'm also using a mac and I got the same thing, even though the autoplayer is not running yet...

Besides that, great program! I'd never have the patience to win a trophy by myself lol

Can you play it with Habitarium open?

[KaibaSama]

Can you play it with Habitarium open?

No, you'd need to be logged in to your web browser and the program manager is treated as its own browser. You can not be logged in to neopets to two different browsers.

Yeah, even when it's not running, I still can't click anything.

[Helix]

Ah, I see. Thanks for the info.

[rowdierowd]

May have found a bug with the pyramid ap. It doesn't always make the right play. I had 8 and 10 on the board and drew a 9 and it just drew again without playing either.

[Legitboi]

i'm glad that pyramid AP is still working by now.

[Fikri]

got my gold trophy after my 100th game. thanks a lot!

I may be totally wrong on this because I don't understand these programs, but is it possible to get random events while this runs? I saw someone say it runs as its own browser, and I figured I'd ask.

[VaultBoy]

Just got my silver trophy

[Elva]

I keep getting "some weird error" when I try to run this. Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong? I've tried logging out and in, restarting the program etc. to no effect

What does it say specifically? Also, are you using a proxy?

[Elva]

No proxy. It literally says "some wierd error" (with that spelling) in the log, then stops the program when I try to run it.

It should be able to. I know I have let it run on other games and come back to items that I didn't have before(or come back to have lost my rainbow worm or something else). That seems to indicate to me that it is having random events occur, but they are not logged. For example, I found an Icy Negg in my inventory when I had let the Cliffhanger and Neggsweeper APs run. I had put everything in my SDB before they were run, and they were there the minute I logged back in.

And as for the speed of pyramids, you can run it pretty fast. I know that I can play games in well under 2 minutes, and sometimes less than a minute. I would guess my average time is maybe a minute and 15 seconds or a minute and a half. If you have a fast connection, you can run thru games FAST.

Yup, and although I don't recommend running it too fast (even if it is a safe program), I've gotten quite a few items while running this program. Definitely one of my favorites ^^

I can absolutely confirm this... I have obtained so many secret lab maps and other random items while running this AND other APs, like dice-a-roo, as well as fairy quests.

 

That is the main reason I even bother to run them! (The FQs mostly)

[infernox]

Is it normal to get 30+ games with no clearings?
