How Many Donuts Did u get with golden Pickaxe?

I bought it and I actually got way less donuts. I realize it says “chance” but I was getting 5-12 per rock pile. Bought that and just got 2 on one and 4 on another.

Who's buying this? Please convince me it's worth it, if it is

I’ve hit the jackpot two or three times so far.

WHAT A CON.., unlocked a 2 map section & a 3 map section , got 4 donuts from 1 rock & 9 from the other.. no triples at all..BAH Humbug.. :s

Purchased this also. So far not seeing a big benefit, but do have a lot of land to open up. Hopefully will eventually be worth the 100;sprinkles cost.

I spent the 100 and so far have had LESS than average return on several new properties. However, that's only about 10 minutes of RTT work to make the 100, so I guess it's worth the expense just to enjoy that ten seconds of anxiety when you open a new mine. After all, that's what mining is all about - right?

The golden pickaxe only triples the chances of getting a 100 donut jackpot when you mine. It does not triple every donut vein.

I just ran thru several friend towns and picked up about 300 donuts from virgin mines. I did NOT hit any unusual amounts, however. Mostly the 3, 9, 19 etc. but hey, free donuts! And yes, apparently you need the golden axe to mine successfully. It's worth the 100 $d's though. Oh, and that 300 came from only 7 friends. Several had more than a dozen mines uncollected AND I found a few mines that would not pay off, no matter how many times I tapped on them. Glitchy, perhaps? Who knows......

Addendum: I made another pass thru those 7 friends. I hit TWO one hundred payoffs from one friend and collected a bunch more from the others. If this is a glitch, I hope they don't fix it anytime soon.

Update to the Addendum: WHOOOHOOOO.....I discovered by accident that you can REmine your friends' mines just by going to a dif friend and then returning (without waiting or leaving the friends area). So far, this glitch has netted me about 2000 donuts for very little effort. Also, when you're tapping on a friends mine, the 'bigger' mines are the ones that pay off, not the small ones. No clue why that is but saves a lot of tapping on mines that won't produce.

What is RTT?

Rat trap truck.

Incidentally, anyone w max game cash should forget RTTs and just flip the big zirconia. Seems much easier to me.
