That's the problem, pure luck isn't a good thing in this type of game.
In my opinion is copy the system mechanic from Guilds then it would have been better being it is a sure thing just you have to accumulate the amount to get a full 1, but this take out the randomness. Labs will be similar to Guilds in this case.
or
A merge of Guilds and the current sci system where it is still based on a %, same initial % as it is now, but 0.5% is added for each missed tick. If you get a scientist then the % counter is reset to to the base % (ie todays Sci %).
Basically this method will accumulate +12% added to the base % in 24 hrs, so you can almost guarantee a scientist 1 every 36 hrs (which is a just about a 1/6 chance at 36 hrs). The Laboratories increases the addition % per tick and the base %.
(1% per tick might be a bit high, but 0.5% seems a little low for those very unlucky.... dunno it needs testing)
or
A similar idea from above keep the base %, but there is no auto add of % every tick except only with the addition of Labs will add a % every tick.

if its in the game... I like Bishop. I don't care what my Mommy says about him.
All professors.
No new Scientists for 75 hours.
I liked it when it was a game of planning and skill not luck.

I can tell you're a fellow Texan, Andurilas. Mine says Ohio but born in San Antonio.
On Topic - 3 non-professors.
Off Topic - I have a story concerning Thundercats, Monsters, Free and Noobies Don't Bite.
I was in HRS(her royal swiftness)and just came out of war over 4k acres with my undead cleric. We had an ambitious new player I offered to let run my province while in sitter mode, so my D&D crew and I could start a new campaign. I told him he could tinker with the build all he wanted.
Anyways, once out of protection, Free waved us and I was keeping up with things on irc. Palem(with support)decided to wave Noobies Don't Bite for war. For some reason we thought they'd be easier than Free. My sitter, who'd dismantled all my GS, decided that doing 2 massacres on Noobies big halfers was the ticket. So, like 3 minutes later he was apologizing and when I got into the war I was 378 acres eating regular learn taps. I'm no quitter, but I noticed I had an invite. I can only guess my sitter was looking to join another kingdom.
Since my province was wiped out in HRS I figured I'd take up the invite without looking. It seemed like it'd be fun not knowing where I was going. I was on good terms with HRS, just wanted a little adventure EoA. Roll the dice, and....
So I end up in Monsters which I'm a fan; if only for theme. Just to clear things up, I'm the original Chimera under the name Chimera Occult. I always name myself Occult if I play cleric, unless theme dictates. I chose Chimera because I was making a 3 headed monster: faery cleric. Regrettably they used some chat I didn't have access to and some undead girl was threatening violence and complaining that I wasted an invite. Well, I'm always good for invite reimbursement, but she was also complaining I wasn't even trying to figure out how to join their chat. She seemed so nice. Why wouldn't I want to join their chat? :-D
I leaped out and saw Thundercats recruiting if you'd provide your own invite. Thundercats was one of the retirement kingdoms. It was interesting in that I adopted a faery mystic at 3k acres, but I estimated I was breakable by every province in the top 20. None the less I met some of the mighty players who'd played through the zenith of Utopia. It's the first time I'd seen guys with over a million offense with land grabs in the thousands of acres.
We had no intel storage and irc for communication.
All in all, a good age with memorable experiences.

Oh really? Lets do the math. I will concentrate the scientists into 2-3 categories.
Prov 25 scientists(all proffessors):
8 proff in crime - 48% tpa
17 proff in chann - 100% wpa
Prov 40 scien(all proff)
6 proff in pop - 3.6% pop
17 prof in crime - 100% tpa
17 prof in chann - 100% wpa
So you are saying +50% tpa and +4% pop is insurmountable? No, you are wrong a lot. The thing with the sci is a prov that is 5k land with 50 scientists doesn't have better sci than a prov 1k land with 50 scientists.
Your so vain... bet u think this song is about you...
Here are some skills
February 13 of YR2 A new scientist, Novice Glo-thic (Crime), has emerged and has joined our academic ranks.
February 13 of YR2 Meteors rain across the lands and kill 51 peasants, 25 Axemen and 5 Berserkers!
February 13 of YR2 We have received a shipment of 50,000 gold coins, 5,000 runes and 100 soldiers from
February 14 of YR2 Meteors rain across the lands and kill 6 peasants and 1 Axeman!
February 15 of YR2 Meteors rain across the lands and kill 60 peasants, 43 Axemen and 8 Berserkers!
February 15 of YR2 Enemies have convinced our soldiers to demand more money for upkeep for 9 days.
February 16 of YR2 Meteors rain across the lands and kill 87 peasants, 36 Axemen and 7 Berserkers!
February 17 of YR2 A new scientist, Novice Bere (Food), has emerged and has joined our academic ranks.
Still no new scientists.
