They should update the thing, make it more worthwhile for players.

Maybe people would go out trying to recruit new players again if that were the case...

perhaps 5k Units for free? It's not alot.. but it might encourage more people to try to get new players to join the game.

we do click it occasionally just for the heck of it... but not really no...

we click it more often on chaos, as there the benefit is actually visible...

5k is too much as you can get loads of alliances mates etc to click.

yes... but how many will continue to click it, day out and day in?

even if you get 30 people to click it every day for a month, you'd only get an additional 30*30*5000= 450k, and most people these days have daily UPs close to or higher than that... and those that dont have that, need the boost such an increase will give...

Doubling lots of people's UP every day? For just 10-15mins of clicking?
Not bad IMO

hmm... yes, made a miscalculation in that post... with the current cap of 50 clicks a day, 5000 would be too much... (miscalculation was due to not bothering to use calculator...)

now if it was 1000 per click, then it would be fairer... the total for one month would then be 1,5m uus... and it would be rare for someone to actually manage to have 50 clicks every day for whole months at a time...

Re: Any one still click the recruitment link on command page?

*grin* That whole recruitment thing would work so much better if you'd get bonuses for achievements by your officers. Instead of just getting UU per click, award the recruiter for activity of the recruitees. Medal-like kind of things.. various degrees (depending on how well your recruitees perform, of course) but no *massive* effects, just.. niceties.
