Started to play Level 9 on 9/27/15 with the goal of getting all birds into the Diamond League. Achieved this goal on 10/19/15. Used Level 9 to farm feathers on both screens. Started this with 2 Birds in the Gold League and 5 Birds in the Azure League. To provide perspective and “beat” the boredom recorded the results of the two screens while playing each game to its natural ending. Did not reset any game, only started each one as a new game.
Starts = 3,674
Any Box = 5.06 starts
Blue Box = 9.77 starts
Red Box = 10.52 starts
Feather = 14.87 starts
Spell = 36.01 starts
Total Boxes = 725
-Blue Boxes = 376
-Red Boxes = 349
–Feather Boxes = 247
—Yellow=44, Red Big Brother=43, White=34, Black=32, Grey=32, Red Bird=31, Blue=26, —Missed Boxes=5 (assumed Feathers only for consistency)
–Spell Boxes = 102
—Golden Duck=40, Blizzard=24, Pig Inflator=20, Mighty Eagle=10, Hot chili=8
Missed getting 5 Red Boxes out of 725 boxes/349 Red Boxes. They were all on the 2nd screen; lower left of structure-2, above left of structure-1 and right of structure above grass-2. Needed to waste some birds to get the right one to destroy these. Learned that lesson a bit to late.
“Droughts” above 10 game starts between Red and/or Blue boxes being issued. Playing both screens reduces the amount of “droughts” when compared to just playing the first screen and quitting/reseting the game.
11 starts = 16 times
12 starts = 7 times
13 starts = 9 times
14 starts = 7 times
15 starts = 3 times
16 starts = 4 times
17 starts = 6 times
18 starts = 1 time
19 starts = 1 time
20 starts = 2 times
22 starts = 1 time
23 starts = 1 time
24 starts = 1 time
28 starts = 1 time
33 starts = 2 times
Playing both screens also produced the following boxes being issued consecutively, back to back (no Droughts between each box):
2 Blue and/or Red boxes issued = 88 sets
3 Blue and/or Red boxes issued = 23 sets
4 Blue and/or Red boxes issued = 3 sets
There were also numerous occasions where the boxes only had 1 to 4 Level 9 starts between the Red and/or Blue boxes being presented.
Summed the screen number, 1st or 2nd screen, with the box color to see if there was a difference between them or a pattern:
1st screen = Red boxes = 210 + 2nd screen = Red boxes = 139 = 349
1st screen = Blue boxes = 208 + 2nd screen = Blue boxes = 168 = 376
+ 418 + 307
Tried to find any pattern/order pertaining to feather box color being presented in the game. About the only conclusion that I can make is that “like colors” are awarded in groups. The groups are usually two of the same color awarded with and without “droughts” between the two like colors. Grey, Red Bird and Big Brother had the most pairs. Yellow had 4 and 3 yellow feather groups. White had 3 white feather groups.
The last bird needed to get into the Amethyst and Diamond Leagues was the Blue Bird. These feathers were very hard to obtain through the Red Boxes (least presented) and also in the Daily Tournaments. If anyone has the same experience with the Blues, be prepared to play a good number of game starts to get another Red Box with Blue Feathers. The other feathers issued between the Blue Feathers ranged from 0 (once) with the highest of 34 colors (once). The range of 1 through 14 where other feathers were issued in-between were the most common. Blue Feathers were the least presented with 26 when compared to all the other feathers, see above.
I have not encountered a Red and/or Blue box on both screens in the same game. After 3674 starts I will assume this situation does not occur.
There was a game version update just about in the middle of collecting data and trying to obtain the Diamond League.
Pre Update = 1849 game starts
Post Update = 1825 game starts
Pre Update = 657 lines of data
Post Update = 659 lines of data
Pre Update = Total Boxes = 362, Blue Boxes = 177, Spells = 50, Feathers = 135
Post Update = Total Boxes = 363, Blue Boxes = 199, Spells = 52, Feathers = 112
What I noticed, post update, was that level 9 had less destruction which resulted in less points. First screen could have 3 tnt boxes and obtain scores over 100k with the Red Bird and Bomb when “strike” both screens, pre update version. Obtain over 200k very often in the pre update version. After the update 2 tnt boxes mostly appear in the first screen and getting over 100k is very hard with the same bird combination. Was able to obtain over 200k after “striking” both screens probably 5 times with any combination of birds. Have a score of 217,450 that was obtained pre update. Post update could only score 210k+ with any combination that was tried.
Enough stats, I guess. Was going to do post Location of Boxes vs Screen Number vs Box Color & Type but what advantage would that provide to future players?
Best advice it to keep flinging to obtain your goal what ever that will be.
