Over all, it has evened out. I might get two or three good results, then a run of bad ones ...

I have been able to ring the gong four times so far:
- Grants food - Takes health - Takes health - Grants technology
So it's even for me. xx

I also like ringing the gong because i like to have something bad happen and something bad to happen. I also love opening my games up and seeing my new island event.

I completed my game ages ago and I rarely ring the gong. I have found I get slightly more bad effects, and I have plenty of food and tech points, so there's no real reason to ring it except curiosity (I do occasionally succumb).

I am testing a theory here ....
I rang the gong 4 times .... almost stopped at three because the third time it took health, and a pea-green fog made some of my nearby villagers sick. I ALWAYS train EVERYONE at least to trainee healer status by walking the newbies through the "strange plants" routine, so when that happened, I had healers running all over to heal those who were affected.
The first time, I had a EE ring it, and all of my tribe was pretty full on their health meters, so when I rang it, rainbows came out and the gong granted health.
The second time, I had a Master Scientist ring it and the gong granted wisdom.
The FOURTH time, I had a master healer ring it, and it granted health again.
What to note is .... THE LENGTH OF TIME BETWEEN RINGINGS ... I haven't rung it enough times, but I am thinking that if you let it fully charge and only ring it once in a while, not every night, you might get more positive results. Just a theory, but I rang it the very next night the third time .... and a week after for the fourth ... hmmmmm veerrrry interesting!!!

UH OH!! When was the last time you rang it? Did you wait a few days in between? Are your villagers healthy and happy? I don't know why but I seem to think that MIGHT have SOMETHING to do with it ... I could be wrong, but then again ...

I waited a few days in between rings. I chanced it again today and used an esteemed elder with full health. I accidentally left the game on for a few hours on normal speed, and came back to find my tribe went from 49 people to 71!!! And that gave me a little concern with food ... at one point I had 42,000+ and I was down to the 17,000 point, so I didn't know how much further it would go down if I didn't start training more farmers soon ... and the gong granted FOOD ... JUST what I needed! ... about 1,000, and sounded with rainbows coming out of it. I also think it increased the skill of some of the farmers!!!
I know about the "take health" ... happened to me the third time I rang the gong, but that was only because I rang it the very next day after I rang it the second time. Try waiting a few days!!! Let it "charge up" a bit ... and see if your luck changes. Also, make sure of whom you have ringing it. Give the honors to a happy, healthy learned person to see if that makes the difference, especially of that person is an Esteemed Elder!

I rang mine for the third time last night...it said it granted food. Now, the food meter stayed the same, so I figured it just made the crops come up. Today when I went in, the "west wind" was blowing, and I had 665342 food, and still had 1400 coconuts to harvest. So it doesn't always happen immediately. The first time I rang it, I had villagers embracing all over the place with most multiple births! The second time, it granted "youth"...I couldn't figure that out, until I spotted a little redhead who had been 55, a master scientist and master farmer, who was 5 years old again! And her twin, who was standing by the gong, greyed immediately. Kind of sad. The one give youth has daughters older than she is!

I have only rang the gong about 4 times. The first two times I did it within a day of each other. The first one was good luck and the second one was bad luck. Since then I only ring it about once every week or two and so far it is only good luck. I also only use one of my oldest villagers that are about ready to die so if it kills them, oh well.

... The last time I rang it with a young female of 15 when it gave Wisdom. She became a Master Doctor. Several times when she went to heal someone, it said "This villager is too young!" I never had this! It's strange because kids are able to heal! I think that when you brought her to heal someone, it made her "kissing" in spite of "healing", so she is too young indeed!

Yes, the message doesn't say whether the luck is good or bad luck! You still have to take the usual chance with the event, with a possible good or bad outcome (although with some events, such as the vials, you can choose to ignore it).

I am puzzled.
I have 3 tribes, and ring the gong for all 3 every chance I get. Overall, I've had an even distribution of good and bad results. I've always been able to see the results of each effect, until now.
A couple of days ago, I got "The gong grants luck" and I've yet to figure out what effect that produced. I couldn't find any changes in my villagers or the stats. Of course I can't remember every detail about all the villagers, but didn't see any obvious differences.
Have any of you had this experience with the Gong?

AHA! Well, duh, I should have figured that out. There was an extra event, I just didn't connect the two.
It was the first time I'd seen this event, too. A few of my villagers departed by boat to look for the south side of the island. No doubt I'll never find out what happened to them..
I'm sure that event could have a major effect on a small village, but mine had a population of 105, so all it did was make room for a few new babies.
Thanks, laurence.

I love "grants life". I usually have someone ring it when I want them to advance, but nervously. I killed a young & promising runner once doing that! I'm puzzled over grants luck, also "grants youth". I've never been able to see a difference with that one.

Phoebe rang it and got "Gong Grants Luck" what does that mean? This means an Island event will happen a few minites after you rang the gong!!

Grants life means something very different, & I don't like that one when I'm trying to manage the village pop.
