Drops as usual for everyone else? - Games

I haven't had a single drop since Fri, 09 Apr 2010 18:49:34 CDT. I've tried different servers and restarted Steam and still haven't received any drops. How are drops for other idlers?

I idled last night and while playing today I got a razorback. I didn't get any items from idling last night though.

random is random... and whatever. I had a lot of good drops all night up to 10am. Then it stopped until 5pm... which I was like WTF SHIT so I switched server, and received a drop 30 minutes later. Random is a bitch. Im glad I didnt marry her, no matter how randomly hot she is.

got one kritzkrieg last night

Got 7 items today since 10 AM, till about 5 PM. Random is Random.

Got hustlers hallmark and a few other things, though it's slowed down as I have 3 reclaimed metals or whatever, gotta be strong just twooo more refined or whatever the level 2's are

Reclaimed :eng101:

Got a hat last week, and another today. But i only got like 4 weapon drops last week...

[QUOTE=BeefMcGraw;21273227]random is random... and whatever.[/QUOTE] I get the whole random thing, but I still haven't received a single drop in almost 21 hours of idling. Edit: Just joined another server and got a drop. By far the longest I've gone without a single drop. /thread

[QUOTE=BeefMcGraw;21273382]Can you be this strong? [img]http://i40.tinypic.com/8xngig.png[/img][/QUOTE] How did you get that window open? What is it?

Someone can't read the title of the window, eh?

Its the 3rd party backpack manager. Its linked somewhere.

somewhere Very descriptive

I'm sick and tired of people going "random is random". How do you know the rates aren't changed huh? How would we notice that? I've used to get at least one item per a few days, now I'm lucky if I get 1 a week.

I didn't get drops for like 3 days, then I got the noble amassment of hats

Last night (4 AM-10 AM, Pacific time) I got 5 drops

Got 10 items last night (well, about 11 hours, so about half a day), one was a Hound Dog.

I too have notice scarce drops.

[QUOTE=BeefMcGraw;21273382]Can you be this strong? [sp][img]http://i40.tinypic.com/8xngig.png[/img][/QUOTE][/sp] My attempt at being strong. [IMG]http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f47/upthearse/TF2/drops.jpg[/IMG] I was going strong when my drop rate stalled at 48 drops. I waited for 2 days but it just wasn't happening for me. Got me to 5 refined though which I tried to keep for another 2 days but my drop rate was just not looking good so I raged and crafted a medic hat p.s. drop rate just hasn't been the same for a week or so now. 1-2 items a night on average.

Awaiting Sift's secret

[quote]For whole fucking week,I get 19 drops,if not less. Idled whole day and night,and started getting items at night: [quote]04/06/2010 19:09 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/06/2010 21:30 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/06/2010 21:45 - Axtinguisher 04/06/2010 22:52 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/07/2010 10:14 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/07/2010 12:39 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/07/2010 15:20 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/07/2010 16:51 - Ambassador 04/07/2010 20:55 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/07/2010 21:11 - Chargin' Targe 04/07/2010 22:53 - Force-A-Nature 04/08/2010 1:09 - Cloak and Dagger 04/08/2010 2:31 - Killing Gloves of Boxing 04/08/2010 3:53 - Backburner 04/08/2010 9:07 - Flare Gun 04/08/2010 10:51 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/08/2010 11:35 - Direct Hit 04/08/2010 12:29 - Blutsauger 04/08/2010 15:25 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/08/2010 15:29 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/08/2010 17:01 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/08/2010 19:29 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/08/2010 21:14 - Equalizer 04/08/2010 23:09 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/08/2010 23:47 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/08/2010 23:55 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/09/2010 1:15 - Gunboats 04/09/2010 9:07 - Ubersaw 04/09/2010 10:26 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/09/2010 12:19 - Ubersaw 04/09/2010 17:14 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/09/2010 18:47 - Ubersaw 04/09/2010 20:34 - Homewrecker 04/09/2010 22:53 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/10/2010 2:17 - Force-A-Nature 04/10/2010 12:36 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/10/2010 14:56 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/10/2010 23:02 --------------------- START --------------------- 04/11/2010 2:46 - Cloak and Dagger 04/11/2010 3:40 - Homewrecker [/quote]See how many times I got nothing? Yeah. Thanks for fucking up my drops again,Valve. That is day and night,24/7,170 hours. Fun fact: I had 408 dice rolls for item,I got 19 successful rolls. I had 39 dice rolls for hat,I didn't have successful rolls. [/quote] Copy pasta from hat thread. Does hat chance stack up? If it does,I've had 136.5% of new hat by now. Maybe it resets after you craft a hat? Got my Batter's Helmet on 8th April. that's 3 straight days,4320 minutes Out of 172 dice rolls for item,I had 17 successful rolls. Out of 17 dice rolls for hat,I didn't have any successful rolls. Which means,if chances stack up,I have around 60% chance for new hat.

Its random Though, It could be affected by some factors

It wasn't the server as I shortly returned there, but MAYBE it had to do with my connection to steam cloud. Hence why using the auto-retry is suggested [Im not using it for testing purposes]

When the drop system was released, I didn't get a single drop for 5 days. So yeah, random is random.
