5 or 6 from cleaning. 15 from sideshow you. I hit on the 21st and had been expecting them around that date based on my number of balloons popped per day. I have now started logging my balloon pops to verify whether it pays out every 300th balloon. I feel pretty confident that it is.
I am very confident that it is not.
Last time I won before today was around thanksgiving. Call it 120 days ago, for simplicity's sake. I play it two or three times a day.
So, if I averaged 2.5 games per day for 120 days, that's 300 games, and 900 balloons. I did not win donuts twice between then and now, so it cannot be every 300 balloons, but I would totally believe it's every 300 games (or so.)
Of course, this can't take into account the tiny percent that you'll just get donuts by chance. I think I must have had one of those, because it didn't take four months between my first and second wins.
Anyway, visiting my neighbors every day is much more profitable, at the moment. I'm averaging two donuts per day, rather than five donuts per 120 days.
Necro-posting because its relevant to this thread.
Here are the results of my balloon pop count. It has taken me 43 days and aprox. 293 balloon pops but I finally hit again.
It is very likely that I miscounted balloons because I didn't remember to log them every day. I assumed 6 balloons on the days that I forgot because I probably would have remembered if I had popped 9.
While not proof that Sideshow You pays off every 300 balloons it is indicative of a winning trend for my game on my tablet. On my previous 2 wins I was able anticipate winning donuts just by keeping a sloppy running total in my head.
I have started a new count towards the next donut win.
Sorry about the blurry photo. My tablet won't let me use the screen capture button while the menu is popped up (to show the date) so I had to use my phone to take a picture of my tablet.
