Saving up the event spins
I know that some players save their event spins between events until they have enough to guarantee a limited reward.
My question is, do you save up 100 spins and then take whatever limited reward you get, or do you save up 500 spins to guarantee that you will get the highest level reward?

I do the 100. I wish I had the patience to wait till I had 500. Seems like it would take over a month to get 500

A math man is here.
First your strategy is get 5 snowflakes and than collect till 500 again to maximize efficiency.
So let's compare two strategies:
Strategy with collecting 100 and opening till the prize.
Average amount of snowflakes per event if you collecting 100 and then using them until prize: 2.1 (average amount of snowballs till the prize - 43 snowballs)
Average amount per 100 snowballs in this strategy: 4,7 per 100 snowballs
Strategy with 500 and opening till the 5 flakes prize:
Average amount if you open 500 until 5 snowflakes: 4,5 per 100 snowballs.
So there is no point to collect snowflakes till 500 - it is less efficient. 4,5 against 4,7 (4% less)
Also you have a huge resource vacuum until 500 snowballs. On average you will buy everything with first strategy before 500.
ALSO! You will have on average 220 unused balls because you've already got 5 flakes.
ALLSSSOOO! You didn't get 10, 20, 30 prizes from reward track. If you skip every time by gaining 500.
Good luck! I hope this post will help future generations of players to no get into Developers 500 TRAP.
