This is one of the more unethical things that Nexon does; promote these with the 'up to 750 million mesos' line when the usual payout is 1/100th of that.

How does it differ from the promotion of the Marvel Machine and whatnot? Advertise the best-case outcome at full blast, hype it up, say nothing on the probability of actually obtaining best outcome...

The difference is that the Marvel Machine actually does give out the best-case outcomes, sometimes.
Back when we first got these meso bags, someone calculated the chance of actually getting 750m from one (the mean and standard deviation were in the data, apparently), and it was so tiny that even if you opened bags in the number of atoms in the universe, odds are you wouldn't get that prize.

I don't think you realise how many STARS there are in the Universe, never mind atoms.
I've never bought one of these sacks before, what kind of amounts do people normally get?

My god Nexon, do you really need to use meso sacks to keep your profits high? would it even hurt your business to retrieve them from the game? When will you realize that you're only adding salt to the wound by injecting more mesos to an already scewed up economy?

The odds for getting 750m: less than 1 in 10^10,000

(You can read upthread for how she got that number)
The number of stars in the universe is estimated at 10^25, last I read.
The number of atoms in the universe is estimated at 10^80.
Do you understand the magnitude of the lie?

Mean is 7.5m. In today's prices, that's about 150NX.
