    The chance to get a token in 11 days is around 20% (assuming the chance at a token is 1/50).

            Are you sure? How I calculated the probability:
            P(no token and max. 7500 credits in 11 days)=
            P(no token in 11 days)P(max. 7500 credits in 11 days)=
            P(no token in 11 days)(P(11x 500 credits)+P(10x 500 credits and 1x 1000 credits)+P(9x 500 credits and 2x 1000 credits)+
            P(8x 500 credits and 3x 1000 credits)+P(7x 500 credits and 4x 1000 credits))=

            I could have made a mistake, let me know if you find one.
            Approximated chances were used so the result isn't 100% correct.
            I tested the formula on different chances for 500 and 1000 credits, and found this: to get a 8% chance, the probability to get (500 or 1000) credits on a day needs to be more than 85% OR the probability to get 500 credits on a day needs to be higher than 50%. Both options seem unlikely (but possible).

            If you say 8% because for example 7 out of the 87 players didn't get more than 7500 credits and no token: this doesn't give the real probability, but just an approximate chance out a sample.

                        I literally put my hands together in hope before looking at the credit result... and then said "It's 500, isn't it?"

                        It was.

                        Still, I guess 16.5k credits seems decent enough.

                            MEH. 12k overall is always nice, but still. People earned more than that in one day. I really really hope I get that prize for participating in all 12 days.

                              10000 + 500 + 500 + 1000 + 1000 + 500 + 500 + 500 + 500 + 25000 + 500 + 5000
                              = 45500

                              Not bad, I really enjoyed it.
                              Curious to see what the big mega-prize is!
