Help us fill out this option from the Bonfire: Grab whatever you can carry. It's probably an Oddities option, but I can't exactly help out...seeing as how all my time is spent trying to bury rats at the Hill or getting a kickass haircut at the Palace. :P

I'm astonished you were able to draw the Bonfire card so often in such short draws. It's not like I'm the only one; others have also tried and failed miserably. I truly believe you're an outlier example. I've drawn the other Wolfstack Docks-specific cards a handful of times while attempting to draw the Bonfire, and they also seem uncommon but not rare to me.

"We may be looking at a Z vs A scenario: Some cards are extremely rare for you but only uncommon for me, and some are the other way around. The two of us may not be statistically significant enough to determine if those cards are rare or not."

True. Between us, that's only 6 characters. Regardless, the frequency rates of rare cards are mechanically low. As a side note, I know you can trick some gaming RNG's (*thinks of "Golden Sun"*) to produce rare results by repeating certain actions under certain conditions, but I doubt this is the case for FL. I feel that there are too many variables to discern a pattern if there is one.

"But in the case of rare or presumably rare cards we may need to start asking more players to give their own rough statistic. We can do this on the spreadsheet and/or here."

...Okay, but some notes:
 * My numbers might be off more or less by 10%. That's before you even take into account the number of times I've casually drawn cards in certain areas. I only recall the #'s for my camping sessions; the total of casual draws in Veilgarden might be 600 for Zeedee but 80 for an alt.
 * When I camp, I normally keep my menaces low to keep their cards out of my deck.
 * Once you hit PoSI, you get all sorts of deck stuffers.
 * Z is at a distinct disadvantage from the others, too; he has Fate-locked, storyline and pet-related cards that the alts will never receive. My alts noticeably draw more uncommon and rare cards than him.
