Has anyone here tried the Masuda method to get shiny Pokemon from an Egg?

I have and I have tried with German pokemon, French Pokemon and Japanese Pokemon and........

IT DOES NOT WORK!!!!

Though the Nationality does not matter, I tried every day for 2 months and I cant get a shiny.

I feel very ripped off =(
Has anyone else done the same thing?

The Masuda method just increases your chances of getting a shiny Pokemon, it doesn't mean you'll get it right away. Maybe your just unlucky

It does work. It's been proven to be in the game's coding; in fact, it's possible to prove it.
The games run off a random number generator, which controls shininess (as well as nearly everything else). It's possible to force the RNG to be at a specified state by changing the clock on your DS and carefully timing how long it takes you to get from turning it on to pressing 'Continue'. If you do this, you can make international parents produce a shiny, but same-language ones produce a normal Pokemon with the same RNG state (but not vice-versa). Therefore, there is something in the game's coding that recalculates the egg's stats if you use international parents (until you get a shiny).
