[quote=Mufasa]There are some changes that will be made to the game by Monday, the 26th which should give everyone time to do what they need to before hand.
[ulist][li][b]Selling for Favors[/b]: We're going to be following the model of cash and making it a % to list for favors. The rate will be 15% of the list price with a minimum charge of 10 favors. It likely won't stop people from selling things for 1 favor, but might curb people using it for unscrupulous means.[/li][li][b]Cell Upgrades[/b]: We're going to switch to the model we use for backpack slots and cell combo expansions. This means it will be cheaper for the lower level people to upgrade their cell and get progressively more expensive vs the flat increase it is now.[/li][/ulist]Again, you'll have until Sunday night to do whatever you need to before these changes go into effect, but they will go into effect, so be aware.
Two other things we're considering and are welcoming feedback on:
[ulist][li][b]Cell Mates[/b]: You guys asked for this, and while we never really were fond of it, it's something we may consider. We envision it working where you apply for a "marriage license", link up if accepted and then you'll get a boost from your cell mate's cell (maybe 5-10% of their total gains all the way around). It will likely be prison-locked (meaning you can only initiate with someone in your prison, but if you move prisons it will remain in tact), and there will likely be downsides too such as a raid affecting both cells or something along those lines. This is open for discussion and expansion.[/li][li][b]Favor Lottery[/b]: Pretty straight forward. You put in favors, someone is randomly chosen (like the current amenity lottery), only we'll likely limit winners to those who have actually logged in within the past 36-48 hours or so, and the award will be a % of the total favors put into the lottery.[/li][/ulist]So, in summary: first 2 changes coming by Monday, second 2 up for discussion.[/quote]

ok the favour lisiting this sucks big time! Iffy i dont like that idea

You'll get over it. It's not one of the items up for debate.

I like the favour listing as it will help to lower prices but perhaps it would work better if the minimum listing fee was 5 not 10. That might encourage the lower levels (NJ and SQ) to sell cheaper amens and get amens moving about more without them having to collect a few of them
