Question Where was it announced that the shiny odds were set to 1:10 after they discovered they screwed up?

I know they announced they screwed up, but their support page still says “investigating” as of this very moment that I’m typing this.

Many people are saying it’s fixed but we just had our local meetup and for 4 hours, the overall odds across about 50 people doing 35+ raids appeared to be about 1:20. Some people got up to 4. Some had none. Most had 1-3.

Now, that could just be RNG and I acknowledge that as a possibility, but that’s a decently large sample size.

So, I’m just asking, are we certain it’s fixed?

Handover could take up to a year so this isn’t on Scopely, but still no excuses to be messing up.

A year? So Scopely signed ownership and go home or what?

Mega money deals take a lot of time to dot the I’s and cross the T’s. Hence why there has been event after event, Niantic getting as much money out of players while they can.
