You, for some reason, both take and make things personal.
I've actually gone outta my way to only discuss the proposal,
specifically not to make it personal. Yes I did use you as an
example of a collector and high chapter.
Some things you say, just like you and Ed say about me, just make
no sense the more times I read it. Part of this is basically a discussion
by snail mail. Its not fluid, thus where if it were, there would be easy
ways to ferret out misunderstandings as ya go along.... Part of it is the
fact that we both are pretty smart and can see very small holes in other
ppls suggestions, including each others.
You quote me talking about the chest events, yet reference PO box.
You say I'm lie'n or misunderstood, when clearly you misunderstood
my comment you quoted.
I'm very glad you returned, enjoy your posts, and respect your intellect,
thats not to say I always agree with your posts.
As I have said this really does Not apply to the Winter event, it effects
the chest and fog events. In 1 post you say 1 thing, then 2 pages later
you contradict that. Am I supposed to... just not point that out ?
I'm still trying to understand something you refuse to explain.
Let me try it this way..... Normally strategy dictates a GP centric OR
a Daily centric approach. To that end players choose chests with a
much higher % chance to win option, if they are on the Daily plan.
They basically take what they get if on the GP strategy.
So, in 1 of your examples.... the % went from 6% to 6/4/2% depending.
That also means, I guess, that a 30% chance would turn into 30/20/10%.
Why would a player spend xtra currency for the 30%, yet be forced into
only a 10% chance ?? The RNG is notorious for going on long binges of
not hitting the low % item. Taking something from 6% to 2% , is like just
saying..... "dream on" to get that prize. The whole reason players only
play certain days is win those dailies. ( ya know the good ones, or the
ones that help that player the most )
How is this not just making it 3x as hard to win anything great, forever on ??
Old players got to collect best of bldgs the easy way, so now make everyone
else suffer from now on ??
You cannot use the winter event as the example, you need to use the chest
events. The Winter event already gives 2 xtra prizes daily that are basically
daily strength bldgs, well most of them are.
When we talk about standardization, I already see it occurring. For example
if a bldg gives pop/culture, and its the same size, then it has a max pts value.
Those pts are allotted into either pop or culture. Say 150/450, 200/300, or ohh
250/150. So, its hard not to see this as a solution searching for a problem.
But, across the board it makes everything great alot harder to win and more
prone to gettn hosed from a bad RNG. It also would lead to less variety of
prizes offered, in general.
Soggy, have a great xmas, that goes for everyone, but I see mostly "cons" here
and since implementation matters, I'm still having a hard time see'n how this
helps or makes anything better, or even would work at all.... can u help me Soggy ?
