So glad they stooped taking gold for fails...

Sounds like you probably hit a chain fail. This is kind of the equivalent of Gaia saying 'you're posting too fast!'. Do you remember by any chance if they charged you for your fails?

Cheers! In other news, I think I'm going to learn how to spell your username from memory really soon biggrin

Accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative...

No, they didn't, which i found particularly nifty.

Yeah, if the "You Failed" screen loads instantly and gold isn't deducted, it means the Alchemy page is stuck in an auto-fail loop. You should refresh the page, maybe even wait a few minutes, to try again or you'll never succeed.

Hey, I did fail a Very High!

Formula Level: 2
Formula Odds: Very High
Alchemist Level: 3
Attempts Required: 2

It took gold from me and took a moment to load the fail page, so that was a real fail. And that was the first thing I crafted today. At least it was only 3500 gold.

[Yum Moon]

Formula Level:3
Formula Odds:Very low
Alchemist Level: Level 3 on this account.
Attempts Required: 32

Formula Level:3
Formula Odds:Very low
Alchemist Level: 3
Attempts Required: 29

Formula Level:3
Formula Odds:Very low
Alchemist Level: 3
Attempts Required: 56

Formula Level:3
Formula Odds: Very Low
Alchemist Level: 3
Attempts Required:42

That's all I saved, but the 9th one is up to 27 attempt's, will update on the result....
Oh and these are true fails since I wait 7-10minutes per 5-10 crafts (depends on how fast I want it crafted or until the chain fails fade away).
Edit:
Formula Level:3
Formula Odds:Very low
Alchemist Level: 3
Attempts Required: 44

Formula Level:3
Formula Odds:Very Low
Alchemist Level:3
Attempts Required:18
I find it funny how I get a really low try and the last one lol
