Does this mean the people that already got the dice is stuck with a 10% bonus or did they all get upgraded too?

I have 9 pendants right now...... moment of glee? :D

Same here. Think it is a trick to let us spend some more real cash in the last few hours.
They hope we think twice now and that we all say, now i'm gonna spend a few dollars to get the dice.
If lots of people do that, its a nice way to get some extra revenue for the company.

I hope that the people who have the dice allready also get the upgrade to 25%,
That is the big question?
Are they screwed by having it early or not?

+1 on mine being changed to 25% as well after having gotten my 10th 12 hours ago and only expecting 10%. Awesome change imo as 10% never seemed like much of a difference to me. Thanks for the change Funzio! :-)

Wow! Of all the Funzio this is thee most bold money extortion scheme I've seen.
It clearly says "Y U NOT PAY??". They need muney, I guess ;)

Dice affects upgrades only. Just started building a hotel and the build time was still 96 hours.

It was probably just a mistake at their end and they amended it. Either way, they would have to upgrade those that already had the item as the event goals cannot change mid event. It would have to be noted somewhere BEFORE the event started.

But with an upgrade already in progress, I shall have to wait until it finishes in 16 hr time before I can see if I ve been upgraded to 25%

Upto 8 as per previous events..not spending any gold now either...seems more are getting to 10 and in a shorter time scale...the increase to 25% last minute is very poor..there will no doubt be a gold sale today

silverbackspur

I think this event has been made easier if you spend a little gold.
25 percent off upgrade time surely should make
People want to dabble with a little bit of gold.

Wait til someone in the same situation needs to upgrade. I have got 48 hours to go on mine.
I'm quite confident 25 percent will be for everyone with 10.

Whoa, so it seems that 10 % was changed to 25 %. Sitting at 9 pendants, honestly I´m quite tempted to start spending on Gold..

I got my 10th yesterday and didn't really care since it was just 10%, so I was really happy when I went in today and saw that they changed it to 25%! Now THAT'S something.

Have you managed to check that the 25% has been applied to your account?

I got my 10th this AM all with the Middle Option. I was stunned when I upgraded and saw that it was higher than a 10% reduction in time. Wow, nice job Funzio. I did not purchase any gold for this event but I will offer the Funzio gods a vault or two of gold at some point this week! (LFizz how about dropping another sale maybe 50% off?)

I need a sale. Don't ask why.

I just got my 10DP and had an upgrade going, it looks like the time changed for the upgrade since I collected the dice.

Santa, just preserver. PS you do not need a sale! Have you talked with your you parents about your forthcoming gambling addiction! Just tell mum/dad that you will pay them back in the future when you have a successful career!

Santa
04-09-2012, 08:12 AM
They told me they didn't like me playing the game in the first place. Soooo... Need some gifts... :/

04-09-2012, 08:26 AM
Well... Listen to them, and do not let them them see the posts from Ram or you will never play this game again :D

Honestly Santa, why do you need Gold?

From what I can see, at your age, you are very smart and have played a very good game. No money needed!

Gold is a nice addition, but unless you are prepared to spend a lot then small amounts do not go that far.

Santa
04-09-2012, 08:37 AM
I dunno, I'm just tired of waiting. Gold = Time.

I guess I don't really need any gold. I just want it. I see all of you guys buying tons of crates and getting stats that would take months without gold. I see people spending gold and getting 10 Pendants within 24 hours of the event... I still have 8 with only 15 hours left!

I do have a decent account, discovered the forums fairly early... But sometimes I just can't be patient any longer... :[

Santa, agreed, but you are only 13... you have time. Most of the people playing this game are double your age if not more.

From what I can see with the limited amount of free gold I have spent, it would take thousand of $$$ to make a real difference to your stats. I agree that we should support Funzio, but think they have overpriced the game buy in.
Tapjoy allows you to buyin without spending RM, only spending time to accumulate the free gold.
Gold is very addictive and once you have it you want more and more. Opening a crate and seeing a uncommon/rare item drop makes you want more.

Santa, I am not trying to put you off, but trying to put it into prospective for you. I have playing this game for a while without spending RM, managed to acquire free gold and now more and more tempted to spend RM after the taste I have got for it.

Hope you understand and do not take this the wrong way :)

I completely understand. It's just the "pull" of gold is so, so, soooo, tempting.

I mean look at Gentlemen's Clubs, Rock Cafe's, and Pirate Taverns. Having 2x of all three of those could change your game! But I understand what you are saying. Doesn't stop me from wanting it though. :D

slackerboy
04-09-2012, 09:06 AM
Yep totally agree Santa, since I stumbled on free gold. The temptation to spend RM is now always on my mind. I bought some crates which started the addiction. The nice loot now in my inventory, so so nice. The additional stats only bring short term gains and the gold addiction drives the further temptation.

The GC is my goal now, was so tempted to spend gold on this event especially when I got got 9 DP. Held back with the thought of I have saved this gold for the GC. This will bring me much more benefit in the long term. I could have spent the gold which would have pushed back my GC investment. For me, there was no guarantee that I would have got the dice with gold.
Stick with tapjoy for the timebeing, painstaking as it is, will bring long term benefits when the time comes

I hope they didn't lower the 10th drop rate when they fixed the upgrade %. I've been stuck on 9 for a while now.
