Just wondering if my luck is massively low past 2 days or if its being iffy. Yesterday took 20 hours to get 4 cards in one game, 3 days ago it was fine, got about 25 cards in 1 day and today, Its been idling for 8 hours and 0 cards. Like come on am I just super unlucky or it is being bad

I haven't experienced any issues with it this week. I know card drop intervals are different per game, but I've never encountered one that needed 8+ hours.. That's odd. Try reloading the program or playing around with the settings? D;

While it hasn't happened to me in months, I ran into issues a couple of times where it didn't close out a game properly so Steam thought two games were running & when that happens, it slows the card drops to a snail's pace... could have been what happened in your case

If it does it again, I'd suggest closing out steam entirely & just restarting it

Card drop timings are decided by the developer. (I remember there was this game that dropped 1 card every 2hrs), and people complained to the developer and he reduced it to 1 card per hour.
Also sometimes games don't close properly as mentioned above(happens to certain games only), so it causes card drops to slow down.

A 5 minutes game should drop its card every minute :)

Idle Master is not supported by its creator anymore
Switch to ASF, it can even farm multiple steam accounts simultaneously, and send a command for your other account(s) to send farmed card to your primary account.

Your best choice is to drop IdleMaster and move on to ASF. Did it a few months ago, would never ever go back to IM.

Don't worry, it just depends on the game. Some games take more time to drop cards compared to others. Thankfully, I have farmed all my games' cards. :D

I have more problem with IM itself than Steam's card drop rate.

...

Ditched it last week and using ASF exclusively now.

Be sure to see you're not running 2 games at the same time. Stick with IM unless you have multiple accounts then switch to ASF.

IM works fine for me (ASF didn't when I tested it while back, so not switching unless I have problem's with the other).
