So basically, you decided to work super hard to get a chance to flip a coin and choose to feel frustrated over, at best, a 50/50 chance of getting what you want.

Sorry you didn't get your pair. :-/ It's not that great without the sig weapon anyway :D :P ;)

(TLDR) Although I understand and appreciate the hard work and time people put in, even if the bridge is completely fair, it's a bit unreasonable how devastated people are after only flipping a coin 2 or 3 times and not getting the result they want.. I don't think people understand probability. It also seems some people feel entitled to certain things, which for the effort and time that is put in this may well be the case, but this is not what Mobage offers and we know this full well coming into the deal.

However, I do sympathise with those that have bridged blocks of 5 or 6+, as the bridge gives multiples of the same card far too often for it to be neutral. 50 medal pulls are an easy way to see this. You could also see it in the past before the system automatically sorted rarity, you could see so many consecutive duplicates.

If you flip twice and get heads then tails, fantastic. Incredibly, I managed it with the Grimlock R5, it happens. The 3 previous events Had draws of 4, 5 or 6 consecutive bots and couldn't match anything, no alts. Amazing.

Knowing the bridge is not neutral though we should be even less forceful in our expectations. We know the reality. I'm sorry, but 2 draws is not realistic. We must adjust our strategy and thinking accordingly and not pin all our hopes and dreams and get so emotional over something so unlikely even if it wasn't flawed in it's randomisation. It is gambling. Treat it as such. Even in real life, gambling is not fair, odds and payoffs are adjusted to favour the operator, not the player, otherwise they would all be out of business.. so really, why do we expect not only a fair but more than fair gambling system? It is what it is, gambling. Until it changes to something that isn't gambling (which would be fantastic), sadly we have to take it as what it is and work with it, even if it sucks big time. :(
