Once upon a time, maybe in thread https://seekers-notes.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:117459, I said that the CI drop rate while visiting was possibly the only random return that we could verify and prove changes. I suggested 20 days of observations (1000 observations each) could show the normal curve and then additional 5 days of observations each would allow us to test for changes. Well i have finally done the initial 20 days.

My method of data collection was: without a talisman running do a maximum gift (100 free gifts plus 10 CIs), play 2 locations (to allow MT to update the gift status) and then visit 100 friends charging 5, semi-random locations/crafters/games and 5 trophies each. Note the number of CIs dropped.

Results per day; 53,68,43,58,49,53,44,46,50,44,47,49,54,50,49,58,52,51,36,48 CIs from the 1000 charges. Then i got lazy and used the hackmath statistics calculator to determine the (mean) average is 50.1, standard dev. is 6.48 and the normal curve looks like the attached graphic.
