    Just an idea for ltb's...

    When an LTB is released (in gree time), it is during the time I'm counting Z's thus, when I start building the first one, I'm usually late by 7-9 hours...and I thought that's a lot of wasted time. I'm pretty sure there are a lot of players experiencing this due to timezones. So, I have this idea for GREE to revamp an LTB event:

    1. When you release an LTB, please don't run the clock yet until a player starts building/purchasing it.
    2. In conjunction to #1, the player must build/purchase the LTB within a window of say,12 hours from the time it was released...and,
    3. Failing to accomplish #2 will nullify the window time.

    Some might not like it, but I thought it would be fair for all. Thanks for reading. :-)

    9 1% mods are exactly the same as ten of em. Perhaps this would be more of an issue if prizes were awarded on the tenth upgrade only. But an incremental 1% increase is negligible. Miss the tenth. Your stats wont suffer from it.

    I'm being sincere.
    Pagoda no good.

    Regarding point #3, knowing Gree it would mean "build the LTB within 12 hours of release or miss it entirely."

    As Sleazy said, missing one of the prizes makes no difference. If it means that much to you, rush the build (construction) with gold. Finishing construction only costs 5 gold per hour remaining whereas finishing an upgrade costs 10 gold per hour remaining.

    Sleazy, Weasel, I really appreciate your inputs on this...I suppose you're correct with 1% mod thing...unless they put in a very useful mod for every level...which I think would be a Greeracle! :-)

    Keep in mind too that the times work against everyone eventually. If you start your upgrades as soon as the previous one is finished, then you are going to get upgrades that finish in the middle of the night. There is no time zone that won't have this issue at some point.

    I respect that my good man and that is very much true..., IMHO however, upgrade times will be upon the player's handling of time...a quick middle of the night upgrade tap (via an alarm clock) then back to bed...as long as the drowsiness doesn't cause to sell a LTB mistake lol... Kidding aside, I thought at least gree could implement a countdown for LTB release and other events for everyone to be on the same "hole" ...that's just me though. :-)

    Waking up in the middle of the night, just to upgrade a building of pixels in a virtual world. That tells us how small your brain is and/or how few brain cells you have. Use the internet and search how important sleep for us humans is. Even a 'small wake up' will cause problems, because it disrupts your sleep cycle. And that is dangerous, and I'm not kidding. Look it up in various scientific reports. Just trying to inform you on this one.

    Do what you gotta do, this is just an advice. It's only a matter of what you think is important in your life and what's not.
