Clickfest and /random are both random rolls: the only difference is one is fair to everyone, and one allows cheaters to potentially use banned (but hard to detect) programs.
A clickfest isn't chance based. Specifically, it overwhelmingly goes to low ping player(s).

That's why back in clickwar days, the "FTE" would invariably be won by a few players like Taborlin, who used a combination of low pings and prepositioned trade windows to consistently win the turnin, then either sell the MQ or let the mobs depop if they couldn't. That's before you even get into autofire or client alteration speculation; this was all potentially legitimate under clickwar rules.

Gatmanno only got his Talisman because Taborlin took pity on me one day and let me bring an Awakened force for a turnin he couldn't kill anyway. My odds of winning were extremely low, simply because of my ping being >100ms. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
