I got mine on my third character, and was done after that. One's enough for me.

Got my rabbit at the 34th token. I have about 150 tokens left, but haven't opened them yet.
I missed CNY 2010

Done the quests on my Ritualist (was a storage char) which gained 4 or 5 levels.

i only have one canthan character that can do the easy quests, but I got the celestial rabbit with just those tokens/fortunes. Very lucky for me, I've never gotten any of them before because I haven't been active in a few years.

Trivia: I had a real rabbit once.

1 rabbit in under 90 on my account (think it was at 88 or 89) anyway i used 90 before i saw the rabbit mini (i was clicking like a crazy) (got it before last update)

1 rabbit in 314 tokens on my father account. Was kinda upset cause after first 293 tokens he didn't got one (those were opened at first try)... (all tries here after the last update, no idea if the last update affected the drop rate in any way, i program stuff from time to time and it happened in some ocasional situation to add some stuff to what i was programing and got some strange result, even after rereading the entire code I was not able to understand why some parts of the code started to be afected by what I added cause there was no single reason for this to happen, i actually suspect that the compiler did something wrong with my code (i actually tested once 2 compilers one of them was compiling the code in such a way that my heuristic from my antivirus was thinking it's a virus, while the other one had no problem like this with the same source) ).

are you refering to random generators? You would experience odd stuff using them as you cannot truley program random. Also if your setting stuff to random the seed goes so fast on your proccessor that you'd run into the same number twice. I have a strange feeling the drop rate though was slightly higher this year...though you can't help think everyones just being lucky as theoretically you could get 250 celestial bunnies in 250 seperate fortunes.

Same as me. In 5 years of playing, not got anything good, ever, from anything related to chance etc.

Just opened near 300 tokens and got no mini. I really give up with these chance games on GW1 now, it's clear the game is out to spite me. Roll on GW2, perhaps my luck will improve there.

wow.. I farm bunches of tokens on all my chars, and play the sht out of rock paper scissors and get just about 4 stacks of lunar fortunes, and dont get a single mini from those.

Then today someone is randomly selling 30 fortunes for cheap so i buy them and use and get 2 minis.

cant say im complaining

Decided to do a few of the longer quests on some of my characters (just my luck, and hopeless romantic). After getting another 101 fortunes I popped one more rabbit. that makes 5 out of ~400 fortunes.

Sold one, gave a guildie another, 2nd guildie dropped a rabbit after about 70 fortunes. This leaves me a rabbit to own and two to sell a few weeks or months from now for 50K each or so. As someone stated, it should be set up so that you can always get a rabbit from 250 fortunes. Maybe set up a trader that will take a stack of fortunes for a mini. You don't get all the other stuff from them that way but you can always get a mini for a stack. Just an idea.

I was only able to access the canthan new year quests on 2/10 of my characters (yes they're all level 20). How unfortunate.

How did that happen? I have 8 characters, most 20 but a few 15 or so, and I've been able to get most of them to Shing Jea monastery. A couple of them I've had to ship to Kaineng City, then walk to the docks near the market to catch the boat to Shing Jea Island.

I've gone through about 200 fortunes without a rabbit yet. Got a black dye in Cantha this week, only my second or third.

I have no idea, I've emailed support about it but I doubt I'll get a response in time. My 3 (just discovered my monk had access) oldest characters had access to the quests in Factions. But the other ones didn't, a glitch maybe? Or maybe an active quest conflict, no idea.

Edit: Also, a lot of these characters haven't been touched since last canthan new year lol... which might contribute to the problem. I really only go on GW for events these days.

I bought one in case something like this happened to me, which is probably likely given my (bad) luck and the fact I have nowhere near that many lunar fortunes :P

We've opened ~1200 fortunes and got 11 bunnies. I'm not sure if that's lucky or unlucky.

Edit: Opened 185 more fortunes and got 3 more bunnies - 14 total. Confirmed that we're lucky for a change - normally we don't get much of anything.

Edit #2: Opened another 82 fortunes and got 3 more bunnies - 17 total. That is just crazy.

Opened nearly 500 and not a single bunny... *grumbles*

I was hoping to get a bunny out of the first few and sell the rest for ticket money. Did NOT go the way I wanted!

10 characters' quests' worth of lunar tokens converted to lunar fortunes yielded me four minis. One for me, three for guildies.
