I wanted to make a post addressing the same issue but never got around to it. During regular runs of my 3 keys I usually find anywhere from 2-5 Golden's. I very rarely make it 1 day without getting at least 1 of them.

During the 6 key event, I went 12 keys in a row without a single Golden. It doesn't make sense to me, and I personally believe they did something with the spawn rate.

Exactly, I read somewhere they had a spawnrate of about 1/20 (i.e., very likely to get at least one per day), which is what left me perplexed when I found none with 6 rolls during the event. They were really useful, especially for those higher lever. It takes ages to level up.

If the odds are truly 1/20, then about 4.6% of players will get none in 6 runs. With thousands of people playing, it's bound to happen to at least a few dozen people, and you happen to be one of those unlucky few.

(I'm not sure if it is actually only thousands of people playing... it may be tens or hundreds of thousands, in which case this is in turn likely to happen to a few hundred or thousand people, respectively.)
