Fight Club is the best team in this game and that is an "official statement" :p
anyone slating fight club is just dumb.
take it this way.
if you take home £5000 a month and buy 4 vaults £219.96 that's about 4.4% of your income.
My point being I would guess a lot of the members of FC are very successful in terms of jobs and easily earn this. so for them it is not throwing money away in the slightest. they already have a more than 'comfortable' level of disposable income, so why not spend it on a game to get to the top? they have probably allready spent a load of money on various other entertainment 'things'. For those in FC that aren't high earners in real life and still spend a lot on gold, what's the problem? it's no different to me spending £5 on lunch everyday instead of making my own for the equivalent of 50p a day. there's £135 a month essentially 'thrown away'. grow up, it's just naive and a pointless argument.
for the record I would love to be in fight club for one battle.....haha
Perhaps, except £5000 a month is way over average earnings as I'm sure you know. That'd be closer to £2000 a month before tax etc, so your 4 vaults becomes more like 10% of total income and a lot more of disposable income.
As for Zora's argument about cars etc, it's well rehearsed and redundant. Classic cars tend to retain their value, as do fine wines, whisk(e)y etc. you can't say that for a pixel prize.
One of my occasional weaknesses is for photobooks. If you choose wisely a book can rise by 200-300% in value (sometimes more) inside a year or two. Now tell me who's spending their money more sensibly?
This thread seems to have gotten out of control. I can say that a majority of FC members do not see themselves as superior people. Most of us are regular everyday people who work, have family's and just live life. I personally do well in life, but that doesn't make me any better of a person than the person that cooks my food at a restaurant or the person who sticks the shelves at my grocery store. I was both of those people before. Yes, I've spent more on this game than most people make in a year, but I've also spent less than 2% of my annual income on the game. Everyone should just relax and play the game the way that lets them have the most fun. That is why we all play the game anyways I think.
Well it's just like winning the league table in football then isn't it? Your name gets to go on the trophy, next year you try to win it again. I'd never dream of spening anything near what the average FC member is probably spending on a damn game but if it's disposable cash, why not. Although picking up a coke habit would be a lot more probable than controlling Crime City if I had that much cash to burn haha.

my point proven. as you say bambam if you still get enjoyment out of it then that's the main point, I think a lot of people just don't understand the amount of money involved, and yes to me it seems crazy, but if I had it I would do the same.
sweetie sis, we are all unique. what may sound good to me, may not sound good to you and the vice versa. what may be right according to me, may not be right according to you and, vice versa. fight club was formed to win the syndicate wars and that's what they're doing. i don't see anything wrong with that.
now to talk about the other person who said spending money on a gaming app is 'foolishness', i guess he has never seen that kind of money that people make in their real lives. what they spend on this game may be a very little portion of their super cool earnings. if they can afford to spend, they spend at their own discretion. if you are intrigued or amazed or violated by the amount people spend, your problem. go see a doc or take a chill pill and mind ur own business. like i said earlier, we all have our own poison and we spend whatever we can to be happy and be satisfied. after all, you are playing this game for some reason and what's that reason? go figure ..
what are your thoughts about traveling? you travel to distant places and come back home with what? memories of the places you visited? i agree, those memories make you feel happier. i personally know a few people who don't buy anything at all but visit distant places and take pictures. since they come back home empty handed, you are saying they wasted their money? same with watching movies, spending money on expensive concert tickets, watching your favorite sport and wasting whole day watching a cricket match or footie or whatever sport that makes you happier. so much time, money and brain wasted for nothing? i'm sure there's an explanation to everything people do .. its called experience. we pay to experience something. and why would a cell phone game be any different? u spend whatever u can afford.
I like pixels
I think I should be able to dictate what other people do with their money.
I should be able to provide sound financial advice.
Rich people: Please use your money more responsibly on tangible things and those that will appreciate over time.
Poor people: Please play for free only. Any money you spend is a huge fraction of your net income.
What percent of income should I proclaim is the maximum someone spend on the game? I'm taking a survey. I hate to be a complete dictator.
I spend money, that money goes towards people getting paid, those people use part of that money to buy things, other people get paid. That's how the system works
I still like pixels
If I was making 250,000$ net income I would spend at will on the game as I don't give a ____! <--(Insert the word you like here) so scrap that. Want a corvette, buy one. Wanna spend 10 grand on CC do it! Wanna travel to Viet-Nam do it.
i can spend a little each month on cc because i get food stamps to buy my everyday stuff
hell yeah even if with money you'll still get beated by BF/husband of the vic :rolleyes: or if you do that will you are in a corvette or a lambo you can flee fast :p lol
There one thing that annoy me in this war, even if my team is top25 we keep getting matched with top 10 team more often than ever before, in about 40 battle we got 1/4 against top10 team, GREE really don't want us in the top 25 hahaha! Even if I keep doing some miracle to keep us here. Not the first time in a top25 spot and we haven't faced so much top 10... And the top2. Puzzling gree.
Every war (moreso on war 1) FC gets at least one matchup (usually quite a few) against a team just in or even well out of top 25. I have to assume inds, etc get it even moreso. You were just unlucky this time. Some of those synds hit us 2-3 times in a war, so remember that it could be worse.
I ain't broke, just more adult to do things with my cents. Here's a tip - stop wasting your pocket pennies on crapola. Your career will soon be over then what will you do for the rest of your life? Wash windscreens in downtown Miami for $1 while telling people how great you were?[/QUOTE]
Obviously you are very bitter. Don't worry I will never hold that job. No worries mate! I'm not looking to take your job! Next time, I'm in Miami I will be sure to give you $1.00.
Of course it's a dirty secret. These are people who are unable to leave their homes. This game is their life. Only way it makes sense. Feel pity for them, try not to be harsh. Everyone needs something to make them feel special.
yea, pity those billionaires and kudos to battlers like you. i'm sure your contributions to the society are exemplary. obviously you have reasons to feel special :)
Internet, everyone where a mask here, I can be CIA operator, a drug kingpin, a smuggler, a football star, a senator. None of you can know who I am really. So consider at all time that internet is a lie :p FC can be a bunch of corporate lawyer, doctor, owner of a car dealership, CEO of a company or simply kids that have access to the credit card of their rich ass parent. NEVER BELIEVE SOMEONE ON THE INTERNET(all of the time its a man with some exception even if I hardly believe there women on the internet beside porn lol)
I've never read a statement so false.

There's an awful lot of large hanging epeens in this thread. I don't care how much money people spend on this game nor do I care how much their W-4 says they make. I enjoy this game and I'm sure all big spenders do also. The rivalry between the Indians and FC has made this game much more enjoyable and entertaining.
Lol it's not a real rivalry. No skills involved, nothing but gold. Free gold for employees and hacked gold, then the fools they bring in and trick them into buying gold. Feel pity for those that are tricked, they are trying to keep up with the employees and the hackers. They don't know any better.
Pixel rivalry ! Lol good luck with that!
You really have no clue.
I so love it when someone who plays the game and posts on the forum
Says that playing the game is proof that someone never does anything else.
For the record using gold means you can spend less time playing, if you so choose. Just sayin'
yeap .. there're many fools here who are jealous of the richies who spend real money, buy gold and accomplish tasks in a few minutes that battlers take 5 days to complete and then they ask others if they've seen the sun in their lives ... just laughs and giggles :D
I can't tell, but I think I'm being made fun of...hmmmm......
Where's dippy? I need his sarcasm meter.
as i mentioned, just laughs and giggles .. more of a humor meter thing ..
This thread is a hella of fun to read!
