Plan to double the price of naq/uu for RL $$$

I've got a plan that will double the price of naq and UU sold/bought for real $$$. It needs 30 volunteers to work, preferably people who sell UU/naq, otherwise they wouldn't benefit. As well, they need to be able to get top 100 strike, plus we will need 5 of them able to get 1-5 strike, or whatever is enough to get through the top defence.

If you wanna talk privately about this, im on msn: mailto:joshuadwc@hotmail.com
or AIM: thelenshar

or PM me ;)

Thanks guys. I'm sure alot of people wouldn't mind going back to the days of $0.20 per bil naq, etc ;) *caugh* KGC *caugh*

The cost of naq and uu for money is all supply and demand. Since the supply is always increasing faster then the demand their isn't much you can do to reverse this course.

Saber, you are correct, but you are wrong. There is alot that can be done. We can increase the demand for a short time (few weeks), while the supply stays around the same...

but whats ur plan

seeing as u want strike does it involve massing?

cause if it does that is slack!

Is your plan to kill men and then sell those people replacement troops? or just mass all the other sellers?

heh, that is the basic idea. remove stores/stocks of things, and then people will try to get it back via buying :)

but, seeems no-one is interested ;)

but hes right...
not cause ppl that sell gain less as the price drops.. but cause at the curent tendency of price droppings next year any1 will be able to buy a top account for a few 100 $.. i doubt any1 (aside ppl buyn) will like that.. as well it will mess up the game...

so yeah the same idea has crossed my mind, it was massing the cheap sellers thoug :-D We ll see how i go on with it :)


ow and about that demand/supply thing.. yeah the problem is some suplyers care only about $ and nothing about the game... so they dont care how low they go.. they still make a profit, and thats what has to change

I don't like people who don't know a thing about the game buying top accounts - I don't mind massing them often enough :-D

Yea i agree Blahh. The problem is too many sellers are selling their 'passive' incomes. IE, the 1 mil UU and 500 bil naq they earn a week for doing jack **Filtered**, which means they prices are low.

It would help more if the admins stepped in and did their job like in the thread talking about people shouldn't sell stuff that isn't 'excess resources'. I can't find where that went, so if somone could post it ;)

The thing is there is 12312312 people like http://herebegames.com/StarGateWars/vie ... hp?t=77963 who do exactly that, and drive the price way way down.

I mean, ffs, you can buy number 1 for under $1000 last time i checked. That is simply crazy, compared to the time and skill it took for the past bunch of top players to get where they are..

Well i was hoping one purpose of the traders guild.. that was to be formed would be to "enforce" the minimum price on stuf, but seing how that is standing still... i m guessing alternatives would have to be found else we ll have alot more of big sized noobs :)

$50 per mil seems like a good min price to have

ppl go to 30 and lower..
i m not even gonna talk about the naq...

i think the min should be 1/2 of the "official black market price"
and that is to be used for more reguar customers and larger quantity discounts...
but than again thats just me, like i said theres plenty of ppl arround that dont care about anything but the $ so they ll go as low as needed to get a few $, at least untill they are stoped.

we have to do something quickly, soon people wont be playing sgw anymore, they will be buying the uus. rates should increase to at least $40 for a mil uu and $80 for a trill naq. just warn the players who are selling it for less
