Such as flipping a coin, just because you get 10 tails in a row doesn’t mean you’re anymore likely to get a heads on that 11th flip, it’s still 50/50.

I said STATISTICALLY.

I also don't understand your math. Depending on the actual day/night hours on this server, which is stated to be 9am to 7pm at least in Kithikor(stated by a dev), you would have 1 10% chance every hour at the AC. How should he spawn at least every 5 hours?
Roughly 1 hour to each game day with ~10 cycles within those 5 hours (ignore the excess minutes). 10% chance yadda yadda you get the point.

You need to start over IMO. Let everything respawn, all 3 mobs. Then kill them all relatively back to back if possible. The last one to spawn, which will take 30-31 minutes, is the correct PH. I have seen multiple ACs on here, have you?
Starting over won't really accomplish anything when ALL of the mobs that spawn on the hill are getting killed at a time when they will respawn at night.

It's not been messed with, your luck matches your attitude. =)
Well something is wrong with something, and it isn't on my end. Smartass comment not needed, I OBVIOUSLY haven't slept in quite some time and am pretty frustrated with this thing, if you people can't realize that then just shut up.
