market is a little strange now...

a while ago, we would have had to pay 80 million or so for 1500 turns, now we have to pay 500k for 3k turns...

so wait a little, check every now and then, and you'll find the right time to get it...

too bad for us that the market is out of turns... 3k turns for 500k naq would have been nice...

Yea, I managed to catch the market at 500k naq and got SS.. it changes quite a bit though, so you just have to get lucky...

i also got lucky and got my SS with 20 turns
but in general the Market is not working properly.
i saw last night something like 77mil/1.5k turns
and a few hours later 550k/3k turns.
tonight it says 170mil/10 turns.

i think the problem is it does not really depend
on what's in the market. here's a suggestion:

1. since this is still early in the wave, make the
quantities smaller for all three. something like
20mil / 500 uu / 200 turns

2. restock all three quantities in the Market
1000 times the trade value, ie.
20bil / 500k uu / 200k turns

3. the trade value will be locked to 1/1000 of the
market quantity. if you are worried about too
much variation, make it depend on the average
of, say, last 6 hours or so.

if a lot of people trade naq for turns, the price of
turns will go up (smaller qty per trade) and
eventually someone will put in their turns for something
else. and the Market will find a balance so forum
will never have to worry about Market anymore.
IMHO, that's how it should work. simple.

i only joined last wave and the price was screwed up.
when a lot of people want turns, the price just become
cheaper. so no one will trade in their turns and the
market just run dry. everyone is crying for forum to
restock. that's just not the way it should work.


if cash price is a concern, just decouple it from the
Market current value. decouple it completely.
if people want to spend money to win this game,
let them. it's just a game.


my two cents.

There's something strange tho.
I can't get miners as strangely the amount of AT needed for them grows as my AT amount grows :shock:
I highly hate that, that disable me to play! I can't even farm anymore or something as AT will go too quick in market, really despiseful :x
