Didn't know the best place to put information about farming for these, so I just went ahead and decided to use this page.

Here's all I have so far: Feel free to contribute if you have any yourself.

If you have information to contribute, just add your turns spent and tickets gained and recalculate. If you don't feel comfortable doing so, just add an new row onto the table. If you still don't feel comfortable doing that, just put your information on this page wherever. --jupider 17:57, 12 November 2008 (MST)

  • Additional Note: I did not put in data for ticketless turns, water balloons, or bags of farts for my first three spading sets. When I redo those areas while keeping track of that info, the original (first) spading data will be deleted so the resulting numbers are more accurate. --jupider 14:56, 13 November 2008 (MST)
  • Ok, redid the data for the Duck Pond from square 1. I don't know how much or any other information I can cram in there, so I guess that's good for now. --jupider 14:22, 14 November 2008 (MST)
  • Redid data for Skee-Ball and Whac-A-Bunny. Added color to best and worst values. Unpredictably, Skee-Ball seems more lucrative than Duck Pond, but that could change as more information is added and recalculated. Hopefully, by the time we have plenty of info, the percentages won't change too drastically. More to come. --jupider 20:00, 16 November 2008 (MST)
  • Alright, added some more data and, as I figured, the Duck Pond is the place to get the most tickets, but at the highest cost. I'm sure with more spading, the Strength Tester will mathematically work out to be the most cost-effective, but yields the least amount of tickets. --jupider 10:54, 23 November 2008 (MST)
  • More data, and additionally, on another note, other than the fact that I use too many commas, I've noticed that the Water Balloon and Fart in a Bag prizes should not be thought of as rewards on their own, but as a possible reward from not getting any tickets. So in the future, I think I'll need to break down the "0" column into three separate "no ticket", "balloon", and "bag" sub-columns, with the "no ticket" having a count and % of all turns not receiving a ticket (including the balloon and bag turns) and the "balloon" and "bag" columns giving a count and % of all "no ticket" turns that received the respective item. I know that sounds confusing, and I probably worded it wrong, but when I get the table reformatted it should hopefully all make sense. --jupider 12:47, 7 December 2008 (MST)
