Races issue in random tasks

Issue with random tasks in Races - this is very important issue.

For example, previous races showed:
We got mostly (in 95% of cases) 320 reward ship tasks only!!! Of course, it took about 1,5 days to complete this one. Meanwhile by the end of the current first races day some teams did 1920-2560 rewards!!! How it possible??? Random? Ok, but... we got only ship tasks each time we refresh task board during the race! Only several tasks we got instead of ship tasks.

We don't take tasks less than 320 reward.

So my question is - how it possible when some teams get really various 320 reward tasks while the other teams have to do tasks with 320 reward ship only!!!? I do not believe in random in this case - I have to think that there some logic thatpunishes some and encourages others.

Dear developers please provide me some logical explanation.

Very sad - we had no chance to win this race!!!
Ship task takes lot of time however we hadn't any alternatives.
How do you imagine the competition in this case ???
Of course, we could do all tasks by the 11:00 of Monday but you know that speed makes sense too!
And it senselessly to do all tasks plus tasks for diamonds if we already have a winner....

Very sad...

The tasks are all random, so the chances are same for all NH's. Keep in mind that some NH's either speed up a lot of things near the end of the Derby to win, and some just save up a lot of items for the boats and then offload them quickly.

Sure, but I mean that tasks that appeared on the desk during the race practically all were SHIP in 95%. Do you mean that 95% is RANDOM? Sure? I don't think so. We had not chance to choose another task since we had only BOATs. We had to refresh tasks many times a day and ONLY task for 320 was BOAT. Of course, there were lots of different tasks less than 320... Of course, we always get ready in advance how ever we just look how the other teams made lots of 320 tasks ... Do not think that it was ONE DAY... not... it happened during the whole race.
This was first race when we had only ONE 320 FISHING, ONE TASK 320 HELP and TWO TASKS 320 TOWN. Pay attention that these tasks appeared at the end of the race when there already were WINNERS.

Please, review your algorithm - 95% BOATS\SHIPS (i don't know how to name it) is NOT RANDOM despite the fact that you're talking about.

Hmm, seems odd since I haven't heard about this before. One thing to note is that we added more variety to the high point tasks in the previous update, so the chances for 320 tasks is lower than before. You can now also get 316 point tasks and such.

But you should understand that if you choose 316 - you a loser afterwords.
Only 320 tasks will make you a winner.
And in case when you have only 320 BOATS tasks... it practically impossible to win since it takes a lot of time to cover all 6 BOATS meanwhile you have not any alternative.

Obviously if you do all tasks + the extra one, all 320 tasks you will have a better chance to win. :) I will monitor the situation and see if I get more similar reports from other NH's.

Thank you.
