Genshin (gacha game) had a contest where 10% of the partecipants would win a 5$ worth prize (a sort of monthly subscription called "Welkin"), 90% would just get a consolation prize.
Comment on reddit from salty user that did not win:

"I am so angry with you that I will pay you to buy the prize I didn't win"
 
Must be poking fun at grumpiness.
 
I'm not that sure....
 
'[Creature or other entity] is so [state] that [action that is doing something vaguely opposite to the expected range of reactions]' seems to be an occasionally-encountered pattern of a joke.
 
Yes, I know. But some players managed to be so angry that "Kokomi is underpowered for a 5*" that they maxed her constellation (== getting dupes from lootboxes gacha mechanic) and her weapon (same way, dupes).
Total expense in the 1.5k range
For a character they DIDN'T like.
So, I'm always wondering if a joke is really a joke when talking about the average gacha game.
Gacha games are crafted to pull in people with spending issues after all.

@vicky_molokh-unsilenceMonica Either way, now thanks to the idea, they have another wave of people bragging on their forum... and the rest getting mad.
anyway, here you have a pinker one.
