TL/DR = Free inf for the asking.

So after reading Blue Centurion's thread about the game being too hard, and the Auction House is an evil and scary place I thought what could I do?

I was told long ago "you can lead a ***** to water but you can't make her think. "

So educating the people on how to use the Auction House is right out.

at first I thought I'll list all my SO drops for 1 inf on the market, but then realized that people would have to face the market interface to take advantage so that is a no go.

But I still feel bad for all the people that can't afford the basics to play the game as intended. So here is the short and sweet of it.

If you are down our your luck, need a helping hand and can't figure out how to make it in the big scary game, I'll help.

A quick look at the wiki shows that the most expensive SO is 60,000 and you get 96 slots.
that's 5,760,000 I am going to round that down to 5.5 million. All you have to do is ask; Leave your global in this thread and I'll mail it to you in a day or so.

Will people take advantage of this? I would bet far more that 5.5 million they will! do I care? not really. if I help one player stay in the game knowing that all his enhancements are covered this whole project will be worth it.

How long will I keep this up? well I am starting this project with 1 billion and will fund in a small percent of my earnings to the project after that. I am guessing a good long while.

any questions or comments are welcome but please don't chastise anyone asking for help.

Thanks

I would pay 1.1 bil for a coin with an engraving of the goat on it ...

wait no I wouldn't sorry Nethergoat

an issue I see with the system here is the players want the best possible gear. not just the great and amazing gear, the the rarest of the rare. but at the same time don't want to "play the market mini game" ... and you have always been able to do just that. However by not pooling the efforts of 1000s or 10,000s of players you are setting yourself up for a long and frustrating journey.

The way I see it is that is what the market mini game does for me; it allows me to pool in with all the other players who buy and sell stuff so that I can give them the stuff I don't need to get the stuff I want. And when you are good at that mini game they call you a marketeer and when you are bad you complain about high price.

had a sack of inf that someone forgot to close up and was going stail like 5 day old bread, so I tossed it into the flames ,,,

88s are still in 9th, but only 10 mil from 7th, hopefully everyone will profit over the weekend and come monday if all of the top 10 in the sg can burn a sack each ...

they should drop, but you only get one roll per target every 5 minutes so assuming most efficient kill fest possible you are killing 5 toons every 5 minutes for 2 hours that is 60 chances per player and 6 players total so 360 total chances

you may see a drop, but perfectly normal to not see a drop for that low of a number.
also note that is at max efficiency so the raw number of defeats is prolly 1/2 of that

I think the recharge will be most popular because as it has been said many times, you can pop reds, purples, or blues to fix those holes; but there isn't a recharge insperation.


I don't think the alpha slot or the increase in lv 50 players will make much of a change in the market price of purples, if anything it may just slow their inflation.

so at the top tier we are looking at a 30% recharge increase to your powers (45%*.66 no-ed'ed ( most of my stuff is at ed cap as it is )) that's not too shabby. I see my blue bar taking even more of a beating.

Although I have only donated 5 billion total (2 directly and 3 indirectly) I have to say the 88s have become one of my favorite parts of this game in many years.

I may have a spare billion under the sofa cushions and be making another small donation soon.

but like they say on Jerry's kids any donation helps even if it is just a billion or two

PS. to the powers that be I am officially requesting my due promotions within the SG, also a key to execituve wash room would be nice ..

PPS. hurry on that last bit I gots to go

Granny should be taking her wheelbarrow to the incinerator soon, the autumn chill will be a distant thought tonight....

I'll Bid 3 Bil ...

but I'll want a thank you note from granny as well.

I think it is pre issue launch hoarding.

with the new issue having a lot of lv 50 content I think purples are going to see a huge spike in prices across the board.

I kind of want to join the 88s, at first I thought when I hit four billion I'll join and burn two and now I am thinking with i19 and the new lv 50 content that maybe I should have closer to six billion before I start burning excess.

I applaud those that have stepped up and kept the inf cauldron a flame. as I am too timid at this point.
