I did get 127 monster bits so our group did better than average there... and we also pulled out about 4k in gold (no reserve bars).

I did about 350-400 pulls this year, 0 special as well. I do have 25 sets of Monsterbits plus about 3 extra (103 monster bits) and about 3k in loose gold some of which came from our 10packs.

If I include the 10 packs we ended up with 9k gold all loose, 96-98 Monster trophies and 1 special in somewhere around 400 pulls. I was keeping track but the data from the third run ~100 pull was lost.

This reminds me. Am I the only one that makes my pulls and takes the away to look at them elsewhere so the next guy can pull? I saw people pulling 10 tokens 1 at a time and looking at each of them. Sorry pet peeve of mine.

I dunno about all them young wippersnappers but I can't see SHIT in the dungeon when I pull. I have to go outside to a table to really look at anything

Yup. I make my pulls, double check with the volunteer that I have the correct # & then dump 'em in my bag to sort later.

Nobody likes being behind "that guy"... lol

No I don't. (And I am saying this in a non-sarcastic, non-confrontational, non-emotional way).

People think and interpret things different, so one shouldn't assume that others know what you mean. Furthermore, the internet is an imperfect means of communication since you lose many cues that you would pick up in a face-to-face conversation.

While inefficient, one possible reason is so that the volunteer manning the treasure can carefully verify that the right number of pulls were taken and that no "funny business" is going on.

The token mix that TD puts into treasure generators does not contain Commons. If you find a Common in one of your pulls, it's because some jackass decided to superstitiously dump some in there.

Well, in that case, I'm glad I could clean 'em out for y'all...

@ least the majority I pulled were Gp. *sigh*

Pull mine 5 at a time and quickly check to ensure no commons. I did encounter a common as did one in my group. We explained that there were supposed to be no commons and we were allowed to re-draw.

Sorry you drew so many commons that REALLY should not have been the case.

4 5x treasure chips platinum backed
4 5x treasure chips common backed
8 treasure chips...

I think someone dumped their treasure chips in a treasure pull...

Oh yeah 25K GP

Ohhh I let them count them out. I just leave them in stacks as I pull them out. And if you just needed to verify the count you would not need to flip them over and look at the front (if you pulled it out upside down). This year though I didn't run into any lines for treasure except on Sunday. Like I said it was 4 dungeons emptying into 1 treasure pull so it was bound to do that. I had 40 pulls on Sunday (me, 2 ghosts and a couple x5 that I haven't turned in yet). I was still faster than the guys looking at each token as they pulled them out. Again just a pet peeve.
