I have been praying recent to God for a obvious physical sign so I could be 100% sure of His existence but so far have gotten nothing. I continued praying until I remembered the story of Gideon in the bible where Gideon tested the existence of God with a fleece which he ask God to keep wet with dew and the ground around it dry and vice-versa the following day. I put my "fleece" ( beach towel) out yesterday, and when I came out to check on it this morning, both It and the ground were soaked with dew? What happen here? I'm so confuses...
I'm not a troll by the way, rather a confused agnostic.

Matthew 16:4
Jesus said: a wicked and adulterous generation looks for a sign but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.
Read the book of Jonah written hundreds of years before Jesus but he referred to that scripture.
Scripture also states: 2 Corinthians 3:12-16 Many that do not believe will have their minds covered by a veil.
So if you are a non-believer you will stay as such until you reach out to the Savior, then you will be enlightened.
Have you looked at the sky on a cloudless night and seen hundreds of stars? How do you account for their existence? In the silence of the night, a famous King of ancient Israel was prompted to write: “The heavens are declaring the glory of God; and of the work of his hands the expanse is telling.”.
Now is a perfect time to see the wonders of God. His coloring book is opening as you peer into the changing colors of the season. All up and down the east coast and into the Midwest God is displaying his majesty before our eyes. If you need evidence, think of this; in order to enjoy this we need to see in color, but we do not need to see in color to live. When flowers bloom with the orderly change of the seasons, we can smell them but our life does not depend on that. We are coming into the season of comfort foods, but we don’t need to taste them and enjoy them in order to satisfy our body’s need for energy. Should I go on?
A famous lawyer once wrote, “For his invisible [qualities] are clearly seen from the world’s creation onward, because they are perceived by the things made, even his eternal power and Godship, so that they are inexcusable;”. This same lawyer said “…for them to seek God, if they might grope for him and really find him, although, in fact, he is not far off from each one of us”.
So if you are truly interested in God’s response regarding proving who he is, continue to pray, but be sincere about it. Have you read the Bible? Even educated no believers have read what is said to be God’s word. Have you checked it out or even studied it? This link to a brochure might help you. The brochure is brief and concise.

That's how dew works. You put something out overnight and in the morning it's covered with dew.
One prime 'doctrine' of agnosticism is that the existence or non-existence of God is unknowable...
Is there a God who did not answer because of your lack of faith, or is there no god? What if you had just a little bit more faith - or perhaps an actual fleece is required or...
If you think about it the results you received were consistent with your world view
God did answer your first prayer. The absence of the answer was absolute proof that god doesn't exist or answer prayers.
