Ok, so i bought a pickle, but i havent gotten a GNG after like 50 times. i bought it from someone else. Does every pickle only ever give out a GNG, or does it give one out per person it is given to?
When my friend lended me her pickle just before she lended me when we were playing together she just radomly got her GNG, and then she lended me for one entire day and I tried and tried for several hours, till the on next day almost already time to give the item back finally I got the GNG from her pickle!
But now... Another friend of mine lended me her pickle and I've been playing for several and several days (like 4 days or more) and nothing, nothing untill now...
I guess this time I didn't experienced yet all the pranks of the pickle, so maybe I should just be more patient, but I don't know...
I guess after days I just want to give up and give it back to her, that was so kind enough to lend me her adorable señor funpickle. In any case I hope you can eventually get your GNG. Just keep playing with it and don't loose hope. It will definitely happen some of those days!
In other hand I wonder though if is just one GNG per person. So if you received one GNG from the funpickle maybe you can't receive another one. Maybe that's it.
I've only owned 1 senor magic pickle dude thing. I have played with it about 300 times since beta, and have won 2 GNG music blocks. I won the second one after giving away my first one, so I think maybe it's either really rare to get, and I just got lucky, or you only get one if you don't have one in your immediate inventory for that moment.
I once asked a staffy this and she said that once you trade away the pickle the sort of counter inside it resets so you would be able to get another gng well someone else and then if you went and out of sheer bad luck got the same pickle again the you could get another gng
I must have played with my pickle 100 times or more before I got my GNG (I was the original owner). I had pretty much given up and only played once in a great while on the hope it would give me one - finally it did. In November if I remember correctly.
The key to the fun pickle isn't the number of times you play with it as much as it is if you have received all the various 'fun' things it will do to you...so for some, they might get a GNG after playing with it a minimal number of times, if they are lucky enough to get a different set of tricks each time (screaming, sending you to another location, throwing your inventory on the ground, making you appear to be funny, moonwalking, etc.). However, for some of us, it might take lots of times (up to 100's of times) playing with the pickle to acquire them all. Don't know about if you can get more than one GNG after getting the first, but it sounds like some have broken the code on that with the trading of the pickle.
This brings up an interesting possibility of making some sort of trading group so that those of us who missed beta get a chance to at least temporarily play with Señor Funpickle and get a GNG block.
Has anyone created a Funpickle trading group? I imagine that there would need to be some sort of deposit, but I'm curious if this has been tried already. (In homage to punk rock, "The Circle Jerks" anyone?)
I loaned my pickle to a friend about a month ago and they haven't gotten a GNG from it either. Is it possible that GNGs have stopped dropping since they disabled the spam feature? Any recent GNG drops?
