Do you agree it's rigged?

Lmao. I pay a deck where you can pull from your graveyard to summon stronger creatures. Well one day I was playing and against the npc no less my cars started to disappear from the graveyard. What poised me out even more was it was I the log but not in the Damn graveyard, rigged I would say so.

There is definitely some sort of "weighting" system as you describe. Drawing all Spell/Trap or all Monster when my deck is evenly balanced, FIVE TIMES IN A ROW pretty much proved that to me. Plus, this many people complaining just adds to the credibility of this theory.

And yeah, it's a way for them to make money by making you think if you buy more cards you'll be able to overcome this system. I'd love for some skilled hackers to extract the source code, then we'd have a way of actually proving it.

Want proof it's rigged? Go use Magical Mallet for a little bit. More often than not (at least in my experience) you will draw one of the cards you put back into the deck, regardless of how thick your deck is when you use it.

It's cents, not sense.

WELL I PLAY DUEL LINKS ALL THE TIME AND I FEEL AS IF SUPER JOEY EVENT IS RIGGED SOMEHOW IT KNOWS WHAT CARDS I CAN USE AGAINST IT AND THEN USES THE SPELL DESTRUCTION CARD TO DESTROY IT OR IF I ATTACK KUNAI WITH CHAIN TO STOP ME FROM BEING IN CONTROL OF THE GAME THEN SOME HOW RED EYES SPIRIT CARD GETS PLAYED AND SUMMONS HIM THEN WILL SUMMON ONE AGAIN IF YOU TRY TO GAIN CONTROL WTF !!!!! AND I KEEP GETTING DELTA KNIGHT FUSION CARD EVERYTIME I WIN !!!!! BULLSHIT !

The game is rigged. Any game like this is rigged. They make their money from people buying gems and packs, they get you by making you feel you need newer better cards . To do that? Rig the game . Oh, it's in the coding to , how they rig it

“So how to beat the odds? Create a deck that puts you in control.”

It's almost as if the problem was deck balance during its creation! [/sarcasm]

it's not rigged but something is going on the other nite i lost 12 duels in a row, to what seems to be the same person with the same infinite trap cards they use to summon high level cards in the first hand. This is konomi's fault for releasing cards that dont have any penalties to a bunch of noobs.

its not random, but there isn't a specific pattern it's meant to follow either.

There is no such thing as a true random number coming from a computer. The best it can do is work from a set of existing numbers and run them through some complex algorithms to give you a pseudo random number. usually they will sample something like the time and the values you get will be based on the output from running that number through an algorithm. you can try to sample from a chaotic random existing in the real world (like measuring radiation and shit), but no one really does that because it's impractical.

however, a good pseudo random number generator shouldn't be so blatantly obvious about how poor it is. it should at least seem random. so i'd say it's probably just a crappy algorithm.
