Returns from gold mining

[Keanoo16]

Hi, anyone experiencing poor returns from the gold mining process?
On lucky days I would get 2 portions of metals out of 3 mines.
On other days, the returns were only 1 out of 3 mines or even 0 return from the 3 mines...ie. maybe 4 metals from the 3 gold mines that I had harvested.
My chance of returns were supposedly 60% for every mine.
From the above returns, this statistic is hardly accurate.
From the reply to the feedback that I gave nexon, they said the returns were not 100%...if that's the case, the chance of returns should not be reflected as 60% at all... maybe 20%... Then what's the use of doing all the research at the library?

I get 5-6 metal from each mine about 75% of the time

For me each mine yields 4-6 metal(if it gives any metal)

for last days days since i have elephant stable active, I am noticing most of times only 1 mine yields 4-6 metal, rarely 2 mines give metals. Have not seen a single instance of all 3 mines giving metals. Had 1 instance when none of mines gave any metals. I know this, because I am actively farming mines for 49 metals a day. I can barely make it from mines.

Also, I know this is how probabilities work, its never accurate. But I feel its not as expected.

My mines also gave very little metal when l had the stable active. Many times l had no metal for days. I doubt this is a coincidence.
Now that my stable is gone my storehouse is constantly full of metal.
Draw your own conclusions.

It's like you get a bear pop up as you use up your 6 free workers!

I've found that if 0/3 of my mines yield metal, then it's very likely that next time all three will. I assume that the percentage apply to each mine separately

I very rarely get metal from all three mines. Generally get metal from two of the three, but recently have had several occasions when none of the mines have given metal. There definitely seems to be a drop off recently. Perhaps Nexon pushing for crown sales.

This is why i think it would be beneficial if you could do more things with alliance members such as trading or gifting NTG's or trade goods. Im sitting on a lot of medal and would happily gift it to someone in need because im simply not using it.

Getting back to topic though, i think the games knows what you want/looking for and purposely makes that thing harder to get. maybe not but it certainly feels that way..

It would be nice to be able to gift more to alliance members. Trouble is that there’s no benifit to Nexon in allowing it. I agree to about them knowing what you need and making it harder to get. Bears only appear when you have 5 citizens or less. Hunt 12 rabbits and all you get is foxes and deer spawning. No gold or food from expeditions whilst the current saloon mission was running. That said, given the apparent lack of ability of Nexons programmers to resolve fundamental game issues, it’s probably giving them too much credit to think they could manage such manipulations.

Zero metal from three mines this morning
