Batten down the hatches, powder monkeys! We got a coin shop starboard!
+1 Me too. They restocked Strikers Edge so here's hoping. :)

As long as SteamGifts relies on a system that lends itself to farming, there will always be people who will exploit it for fun or profit - the burden of minimizing that falls entirely on SteamGifts.
Of course, Cgg not getting their stuff together is disappointing, too.
The logical conclusion is that both SteamGifts and Cgg are ok with business as it is, and the benefits for any improvements are not deemed worth the corresponding effort.

Yes, sadly that's how it goes, I still wish they made all Chronogg games as no CV so that nobody can CV farm off of it, never understood why it does CV because you get it for free, but oh well, as long as websites don't stop multi accounts and websites like Steamgifts allow people to get some benefit off of it, people will keep doing it.

I'm sure it would still happen regardless. I don't know if fewer would show up here, instead of trading sites, if the CV rules were changed, but I don't think it would stop the coin farming. Just one of the more disappointing sides of human nature. More stock on Chrono would be nice, though.

Beholder (7,500C) and Distrust: Polar Survival (9,000C) just added.
Got them both already. Two more weeks of coin hoarding! 😁
EDIT: Damn! I was ninja'd by 10 seconds!

Do games that apeared in coin shop become "no value" here?
Comment has been collapsed.
After someone else here pointed out that in 2018 its coin shop cost was merely 3500, I believe the meme market value of Garfield has more than tripled since the November release of Garfield Kart - Furious Racing from the same devs who resurrected the original game 3 years after release with a Beta multiplayer update. These devs know what they're doing, even if it is putting lipstick on a pig...i mean cat ;)

I know 5 cycles aren't "statistically significant", but I've compiled 150 days of Chrono.gg coin drops, and I can put this table.
drop | avg | min | max |
---|---|---|---|
Daily Reward | 24,61 | 20 | 29 |
3-Day Bonus Chest | 147,17 | 138 | 166 |
7-Day Bonus Chest | 344,50 | 305 | 396 |
14-Day Bonus Chest | 911,40 | 848 | 963 |
30-Day Bonus Chest | 2225,00 | 2068 | 2396 |
30-Day cycle | 4373,60 | 4201 | 4650 |
Maybe adding a note about "you can expect around 4300-4400 coins as average every 30 days" to the original post as point 4 would be useful.
(I also think point 2 should change the word "often" to "once daily", and also note that they don't need to be consecutive days either.)

It's not always daily, though, as it's matched to the front page promotion's duration.
Those are usually one day in length, but sometimes they can last multiple days.
So "Free coins can be collected once per day in most instances" or the like might work, but "once daily" on its own wouldn't be accurate (unless they changed that framework at some point and I didn't notice).

When promos are multi-day, you can still spin the coin and get CCs every 24h. Or am I understanding you wrong?
Comment has been collapsed.
I know it was always locked off on the multi-day deals I tried, but Chrono has also had occasional glitches in the past with the coin claim, so I can't say for sure it wasn't just that (though I'm uncertain as to why I'd have encountered it multiple times).
Well, there've also been multi-day promotions that did allow me to collect the daily coins, but those also changed structure somewhat each day of the promotion period. Meanwhile, the official FAQ simply states "The daily reward resets with the daily deal at 9 AM Pactific", so that's a bit ambigious in its phrasing. :P
I've also not used Chrono except to check in during new shop cycles for a year or more now, so it's also possible something changed along the way. That said, I'm feeling it's more likely to be a bug, and perhaps also a misrecollection of how many times I encountered it. I can at least say I for sure encountered it the one time.
But sure, if that's not accurate, then the "daily" phrasing would work. Though carlica's version is definitely best for precision. ^.^

I daresay it must've been a bug on your end, then. I've been collecting Chronocoins since almost the beginning, in that time I must have missed to spin the coin like 3 or 4 times max, and I defnitely don't remember having any issue like the one you describe.
Comment has been collapsed.
I haven't really used Chrono reliably since.. heck, let me check the log.. Mid-2018, apparently. I've had a month here and there with a decent login count, but otherwise I've mostly been out-of-touch with the site since that 2018 range. So if my recollection is accurate, it may be related to an outdated framework, or to a specific period of site glitches, rather than to anything relevant to the present site arrangement.

This is data from 14 cycles and half (plus a few incomplete streaks back when it was a thing), it's pretty similar to yours:
The daily reward is usually between 20 and 29 coins, just like in your table.
However, there have been a few notable exceptions:
From a regular streak, you can expect: min 3825, avg 4433, max 4941.
Comment has been collapsed.
25 cycles just completed, min/max I got:
Exceptions:
Got in total 110.567 pts. in (25*30) 750 days... so 4422,68 pts./cycle
But if I remove the Starter Chest and "normalize" the exceptions, i get 4390 pts./cycle

Thank you and everyone else for the detailed analysis of the drops!
