A 90 minute 50% exp pot might not seem all that gamebreaking, except for the fact that a real world value of $12.50 has been placed on a tradable item.
Realistically what value do you place on them in terms of platinum? I can't see them being work more than a few k, and even that's a ridiculous price to pay for a measly 50% exp boost for 90 minutes.

Especially considering everyone will get a FREE exp boost server wide as a result of these donations should they hit the milestones.

I can see them going for 5k, maybe more. 90 minutes +50% exp in a Chardok AE group? Absolutely.

Also, I have no problem if the way to rally folks to donate was a serverwide exp boost for milestones hit in terms of donations.

You think I'm paying too much at 5k? What do you think these things will sell for in EC? 200p? 1k? It really doesn't matter what the cost. It's still converting real dollars to in game plat no matter how you look at it.

I have no idea what they'll sell for, though I do think it will have something to do with how many people have them - I think a lot of people will have them.

A lot of people will have them, but when they're used, they're taken out of the economy. As supply goes down, demand goes up. They'll certainly hit a ceiling in value in terms of their usefulness, but nobody's going to be handing these out in EC for nothing.

Anyway, I've said all I wanted to say on the subject. It is what it is and we'll see what comes of it.

Basically, P1999 just became Clash of Clans.

This is awful, terrible news.

I just realized that Oogey Boogey and Patrick from Spongebob are virtually I-freaking-dentical. It is like a twin took 2 don't give a damn pills with a bottle of unadulterated evil.
