Does it really matter which Sideshow You balloons I pop?

Pretty sure the outcome is pre-determined. (Not that there's any way of testing whether that's true or not.)

My guess is that you're correct and the balloon popping just gives the illusion of 'choice' when in fact the random result has already been determined no matter what you do. So I pop green because I like green.

I like it when there are three balloons of the same color and always click them. A few months back I managed to get 150 tickets from three same-color balloons. The next best thing to those 5 donuts...

How do you know this?

I've popped those balloons everyday but never received any donuts, and I've been playing for over a year. *shakes my fist* :(

I think it resets the balloon popping number if you log out of your device and change to another.

Pop the colours you like best!

I got 5 donuts this morning. I haven't played the SY game 300 times yet. Probably about 60 or 70 times.

My recollection is that it should happen every 150 times, not 300, though that is still a lot more times than your experience. Lucky you!

It seems totally random but I feel better tapping the 3 same balloons every time. This way if by chance there is a balloon with donuts behind it and it moves around the board randomly I feel like I have a better chance of hitting it if I stick with the same balloons each time.

I've won the donuts a handful of times now. Not recently since the game has come back online though.
