Do you like it when the Admins do a random restock?

I like it when it is random restocks than timed restocks like the mother's day flowers because it doesn't feel like their is that much lag.
 
I also prefer the random restocks, since you literally have to have 100/10 wi-fi and internet speed and have a perfectly cleared schedule in order to get anything, whereas when they're restocked in random blobs, there's a lesser chance of someone taking them all and gives me a chance to nab a few.
 
I don't like them, because I never know they're happening.....it's not like I hang around in the Shop all day
 
I think Justin was posting when the carnations were restocked though, there just wasn't a timer. I kinda like that method but overall I don't really mind either way.

Yeah, I prefer restocks like the Mother's Day Carnations to the ones that have a very specific time. it lags a lot less and is less about ping.
 
I love random restocks. They have been the ONLY way I have ever scored buying directly from the store. (Apart from the ones that are always available, of course.) It's just too hard to do the regular restocks when like 100 people are trying to get something.
 
Random restock was the only time I've gotten something from this bonanza so yes
 
Obviously the less scheduled ones are great if they happen to work out for you, but I'd argue they are by far less fair than the more official timed ones. Often the "random" ones end up allowing one or two users to grab the entire stock since they're far less publicized.
 
Even the restocks with 15 min or 2-3 hr notice beforehand are better than this for me, so yeah I prefer random.
 
i like both! i seem to have more luck with random ones because i can no life it and refresh the whole day but random ones tend to be for specific collectibles so it means i struggle to get the ones from the shop
 
honestly, the best luck I tend to have is with the direct restocks. which fall in line somewhere between random and scheduled I'd say

of course that still requires me to be online for the restock, but hey...
 
I think timed is better because they give a better chance for people to know about it.
 
I could go with either one, I'm just afraid that someone will be hogging all those collectibles </3. Also my wifi lags a whole lot, which sucKS
 
I admit I have a slight preference for random restocks because no lag + less competition. And I kinda prefer just missing a restock by chance instead of waiting for it, being there for it, and still getting nothing lol but thats jus me.
 
i think i like random restocks better. either way...it feels like the same people manage to rack up like 50% of the restocked amount every time so at least the random ones are less laggy?

You don't have to release a ton at a time. If there were something like a daily restock of one collectible at a random time each day, that would be a lot more interesting than having a rush of people fighting lag at one specific time. Plus, it would reward people for frequently visiting the site instead of just logging on at one time to grab collectibles and run.
 
Wow a lot of people like Random restocks I kinda agree because the lag isn't as bad. When I checked for any mothers day flowers I didn't really feel any lag.
 
the timed ones. sure of course this will cause lag and everyone will gonna know about it and you may not even have a chance to get even 1 sh1t but the random can be unfair sometimes like what justin said. tbh i think all restocks should be timed so we can all have a chance.
