Yes, that way works too, which is basically exactly the same as what you already posted.

The thing I think you aren't understanding is that the current system works like this as far as I can tell:

X = $random 0,99
If X > 9 then A else
Y = $random 0,99
If Y > 9 then B else
Z = $random 0,99
If Z > 9 then C else
X2 = $random 0,99
If X2 > 9 then D else
Y2 = $random 0,99
If Y2 > 9 then E else
Z2 = $random 0,99
If Z2 > 9 then F else
X3 = $random 0,99
If X3 > 9 then G else
Y3 = $random 0,99
If Y3 > 9 then H else
Z3 = $random 0,99
If Z3 > 9 then I else
X4 = $random 0,99
If X4 > 9 then J else

So, it randoms each time and if it doesn't equal less than that percent, then it randoms the next on the list and so on. So even if the last 5 on the list would have randomed less than the percentage setting, it would always only select the first item in the list as the drop and ignore anything after that. If I was betting money each time this was happening, I would want to be first on that list because the lower on that list you are, the greater the chance is that someone else will "win" before you and block your chance at winning.
