If the revealed number is a low one, I use my three scratches to try and reveal any possible adjacent numbers that'll get me the best reward using it. If it's a high number (like my last one), I start checking the lines that DON'T have it to try to find a low number. I got a 9 as my revealed number yesterday, hunted around until I found a 2. My other reveals made all options but one seem like bad ideas. Took the chance on the mystery last line... 1-3-2. Got 10k. Immediately spent it all on Gold Card boosters and got a Warrior of Light card. Chachanji Gegenji | Gogonji Gegenji | Judge Jredthys ~~ Balmung Directory

Then Sei came in for the first time and hit 10k on her card. And Mai did, too. Wiki | The Grindstone 2018 17 | 16 | 15

The version I looked at this morning is perfectly safe. As usual, use your own judgment regarding anything off-site, and don't take this as an endorsement of any site by the RPC. I'm sure there's quite a few of these running around on various web sites. It'd be interesting to see if they come to the same results. EDIT: Oh, if anyone wants to throw one of these together and have it hosted on the RPC, feel free to drop me a PM and we can talk about it. I'd prefer client-side JS, but I could live with it being PHP. #magicAdminHat The Freelance Wizard Quality RP at low, low prices!
