Does anybody else think that the 'random event' generator that decides what to drop is not that random?
I have done over 60 flights to Dubai for items for my inflight catering buildings and have got 3 items. I have 3 Deltas only doing Nice (to get beacons for Dubai) and Dubai flights for these items
On the 'ready for the journey' collection I now have 56 'wheelie bags', but no 'old suitcases' or 'travelling bags'.

Yep had this discussion a while ago, and there were more discussions before I joined.
I believe there is a link between the date, especially month, and the users unique identifier.
This going from anectdotal evidence and observations.
IMO the radom generator code is a major weakness of this game.

Just out of curiosity - when was the last time anyone saw a Sports Bag for the Ready for the Journey collection? I was unsuccessful back in the day when they were supposed to from your own sports shop, and I tirelessly tap on neighbours' sport shops and tower blocks but have only ever had one bag drop in all these months of playing! :(

Way back in the day (before ability to visit neighbors) I built 6 sports shops for the coins. I ended up with a lot of sports bags :)

Currently I have 65 traveling bags, 36 old suitcases, 0 briefcases, 113 sports bag, and 205 rolling suitcase.

Of course I can't get a stupid briefcase to drop from any friends airports. :mad: and I'm too cheap to waste greenies on Villas.

That is a very long time ago... when sports shops used to drop the bag... now after the task of collecting it... it never drops... I did (after about 600+ visits) get one to drop from a neighbours multi-story building... but that might be because GIS have made a change to the drop rate with the current version...

I found briefcases drop from villas regularly.... I have 5 of them if you want to try?

It is my feeling, that GI is adjusting drop rate (the random factor) based on the completion of the mission.... In other words - They are cheating! :)

There is no 100% random rate in items to be dropped. I've multiple collections with proportions of for example 125 A 125 B 125 C 25 D or 100 A 100 B 100 C 0 D (more ore less). I would say: do the math.

In the latest mission I also noticed this fake 'random' rate. I still do not have feather decorat, but hey, there is still 10 days!
