Random drops are indeed very strange things! </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/mr-pinchy-is-the-devil#post-21 Sat, 26 Jan 2008 12:13:52 +0000 el 21@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Indeed; you are simply unlucky. WoW is rather unforgiving about very rare drops/catches. I've gone for over 1000 catches, only to get two <a href="/fish/?s=Mr. Pinchy" title="Fish Finder - Mr. Pinchy.">Mr. Pinchy</a> from the same pool. I guess the process is random, when it perhaps shouldn't be so random: Ideally the chance of catching it should increase the more you try, then there would be a better correlation between effort and result. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/mr-pinchy-is-the-devil#post-19 Sat, 26 Jan 2008 07:23:11 +0000 Balazar 19@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Just keep on fishing. You may have run into a bad luck streak - such things happen. </p> <p>I've caught 943 Crawdads, and 2 Mr. Pinchy's, which seems to be about average. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/mr-pinchy-is-the-devil#post-18 Sat, 26 Jan 2008 05:59:42 +0000 Hy 18@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>You have to really like fishing. Or you can try to be zen about it. But working numbers will only give you statistical probabilities. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/mr-pinchy-is-the-devil#post-15 Fri, 25 Jan 2008 22:36:57 +0000 Regirumm 15@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Every weekend I go out to Sketis and the other two lakes and mass produce over 300 Crawdads . I've been doing this for over two months. My total is getting near 2000 crawdads, and still no Mr. Pinchy. My fishing is 505, so he isn't getting away. Anyone who has caught him please add input. </p>
