Excavation Site Gems
After spending some donuts on shovels, I've noticed that the gem always seems to be next to the rocks. Example: - - - - Rock Rock Gem Rock - - - - Rock Anyone seen it ...

I just attempted these so called methods on mine. None of them worked. I'm now out of shovels because of it. My theory of it being completely random is still sound.
You went through ten shovels following this exact pattern and didn't uncover any stones? If you uncover the grey stones then you stop the pattern and click around the stones to find the gems.
I've done this four times now - it's worked every time - and my average is five shovels to gem.
My guess is he/she isn't aware that a rock indicates that the gem is in an adjacent square. If you don't realize that, then any order of selection won't help at all!
I think that @1pillform is aware of this (see the post from the second page below):

Pretty sure its random. You can discuss spaces or pretend to know when the next one will appear all you want but each one is random. I'm 99% sure of that. But yes its guaranteed to show up next to the "rock" you find. That I know for a fact. Making graphs is a waste of time lol
I think that maybe pillform is expecting to follow the pattern and find the gem exactly on one of the numbered squares, maybe in 3-4 tries as though it is a predictive series. Again, this is just a method of covering the area efficiently, there is no representation that there is a pattern to where the gem actually lies.
