I have a theory about the game...in order to receive you have to give. I give lots of these popular pieces away and my game gives them back to me. Not a one for one thing but it is enough that it cannot be coincidental. Two days ago I gifted among other things the green ball (billiard?), the club, and the sugar tongs. As I played the game yesterday for an hour or so and again today I have already received those exact items back from the respective rooms. Someone mentioned the golden armour set or possibly the map/pick axe set. I find they don't come out every day of the week so I wondered if perhaps there is an algorithm that gives them out on weekdays more than weekends. Also, I try to change the position of the scroll window if I receive the same pieces. By moving the scroll window to display one of the keys at the end or one of the CIs (not the one I want to win) I find I get far more variety of CIs dropping when I play. Leaving those basic fixers up front can sometimes result in win of a collection set in a series of plays (like the set with the greenery and bells) but it is not the set I want the pieces for. In order to not get too many cookies and madeleines, etc...I have to move what is showing in the window before I start the play. I do not put the pick axe in the window if I'm trying to win that piece but rather choose a different piece depending on the room mode. Sometimes an item from the cookie set in the window yields a piece from the mining set or whatever it is called. Just an idea and something else to try.
