What? A casino is all about math. The casino did the math, it’s how they make money. Good players do the math too. ---

I re-run the test. This time I got 5 mining drones and a nice empty belt all for me… I’m happy to confirm the time of 20 mins from start to finish -20K full hold! So I lost more than 10 minutes in the Kernite and Omber site bc of jumping here and there and contested asteroids losses… and no drones… ---

@Gerard_Amatin I think CCP heard your calls: ![Screenshot 2025-12-10 at 01.05.31](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/2/f/e/2fe038848b7081445cd25da483fe5aec713c4fad.jpeg) ---

I just logged in after a holiday. Is CCP trying to sell loot boxes again? ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/d/d/9/dd9af32cdee4fc8ac91500e78d01708b7e835745.jpeg) ---

That’s not a loot box. That’s a skin box. ---

Have you never looted skins from a wreck in your high sec campaigns? Skins are loot. ---

> [@Geo\_Eclipse\_Oksaras](#): > > as long as its cleaned. Absolutely! * * * Gerard is gonna hate me for derailing his thread like this, so I’ll try to get it back on topic: ![lootbox](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/f/a/1/fa1be32248dc8e229fc637d89d8d2262dd5db20c.jpeg) ![Screenshot 2026-02-09 at 05.16.47](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/a/e/c/aecd2d0853146b55f159b68b28826648aac1efc2.jpeg) Yeah, it’s a loot box, but they’re being pretty sneaky about it. Obviously trying to entice players to buy larger packs of PLEX in hopes of getting something extra rare (Yoiul Festival SKINs) out of it. So, it’s an incentive of sorts. Probably not the main focus in that deal, because who would pay 520 eur for a gambling box? So, just a ploy to get you to spend on more expensive stuff. It’s a borderline thing, and they’re probably groping to see how much they can get away with before some EU country sues them. ---
