Crowd-sourcing Cantina Node Droprates

I am trying to put together a farming spreadsheet to share with the community. One question that I have yet to see good data on is the shard drop rate from cantina nodes. Everyone seems it agree that it is 33% across the board. I'd like to get some real data so that I can verify if this is true or not, especially after the new QoL update that is supposed to address drop rates. Please, when you do your cantina farming, just keep track of how many runs you did and how many shards dropped and then fill out this short google form and let me know what you got.

Thanks

The "this short google form" above is actually a link. Here is the URL:

As long as they report all their runs instead of selectively reporting the bad rng then it shouldn't skew the results. I'm just hoping I get enough true results over the next 4 or 5 days to get some significant data.

Someone did this earlier.. (I forget who) :/

Does anyone remember?.. he ran it for a month and maybe would be neat to at least compare the data if not aggregate it.

And here's one that the esteemed @cosmicturtle333 did almost a year ago - same drop rates:

Also, have fun coding the free response answer on how many people simmed at a time...

@sneeekypants did one recently, and I'd be surprised if @EventineElessedil doesn't have a ton of data on the subject.

Sorry I missed yours - excellent work as well. Amazingly (at least to those who insist drop rates have been nerfed, changed, manipulated, etc.) all 3 examples of data collection across almost an entire year show virtually the same drop rate (within an acceptable margin of error).

I share @JohnTS676 his concerns.
I do appreciate the effort though, so i'll log a couple runs in the upcomming days.

Reading the forums, I'd be concerned about the first sentence too. :|
