well the new version will be more funny as i mentioned before ,since game is based on faucet system,the gold could stay,the diference should be the rate conversion....

if day 1 income of 0.25btc the rate could stant the way it is
if day 2 income 0.05btc the rate must go down for not take all pocket.
if day 22 income of 0.10 the rate can go high a bit soo users can convert it,

even if a user doesnt upgrade nothing and start just collect gold to convert it later well it will take a lot time since must upgrade to achieve a good ammount ,but well the new system may work or not we will see it as the new version goes live.

I understand what you are trying to say, but it would require A LOT of work seeing as we will have multiple income streams. I would have to sit and carry over earnings from each stream daily, and it would take up a lot of my time instead of us working on making the game better. That's why my idea with conversion (if it happens) was to base it off of a total monthly payment.

@MyBitMine
I think we will need to figure something out for the conversion rate if that would change.
If I understood a bit what knowhow said, I support it, but has HUGE flaws in the system, and I really mean huge.
I'll say this to help you think about it; if the game will be 'used' in this way, you will lose ALL of your higher level members and the really active people Sad

I'm not yet going to say why I think this, I'm going to work it out a bit more, before posting something I cant reverse x'D

Yes I understand your concern here and it is one i am carrying myself. Which is why it is still merely an idea. If it happens, it will by far be most cost-effective to play the long-game and try and go for the prizes. The conversion would merely be meant as an alternative to test out the payment system and view that it is indeed possible to earn something.

i'm not sure if i recall correctly or nnot if the game is or is not directly transferable to the 2.0 version. but i think it was said it was not compatable and was not gonna be bothered with.

If this is the case, please add the newer game like version as an additional feature. So people who are already playing and prefer the current version. do not lose what they have invested in, and enjoy using.

I do prefer the site as is. includeing the beta features as is. But there will be times i would like to try the more game like final fantasy thing previewed in the video. there will be various attributes some will like and some won't. But if we had both we could save both. you'd earn some more money and so would we.

Our game v2.0 would be saved as we progress through it. And so would our website. I see this as a much needed addition, for those looking for a more entertaining way of earning. a depature of the typical grind. But some people won't like it. it should be a nice trade-off. people may actually be 50/50 in prefering the website. or v2.0. Having both will let the players and the admin cater to future customers desires. Instead of just wipeing out everything. and starting over.

All of your current stats will be saved and carried over in 2.0

In the case where an upgrade is not directly translateable, we will give you the resources instead to buy the new ones. So there will be no lost effort at all - if that were the case, then I had closed down v1 long ago. Instead I keep it running to give you guys a head start in the new game.

As for running both games simultanously. This will not be happening - It will require too much effort and I would like to focus on 2.0 instead of having to maintain 2 sites at once.

MBM has already stated that the progress every player has will be carried over (v1 -> v2) and all upgrades turned into gold depending what the new prices for upgrades will be.

You have to keep in mind that having 2 games run on the site, is not only more costly in terms of running the server, but also requires double the effort of keeping everything running smoothly.

Considering that MBM already spend 1500 (or was it 1200?) dollar on making the first version happen and he still pays for the new version while never breaking even on v1... you can really not expect him to pay more time & money on both in the future.

Wether i had like the old version to stay, totally depends on how the new version will turn out, but judging from the demo shown in video, it will be appealing at least from the graphical aspect. From the ideas thrown around, it shows more and more promise, depending which are actually picked up on.

Thank you for spending time on these spreadsheets as well! I will take a closer look when I get back home today, and we will consider these as viable options. We will however test out this tier system first.

I might as well reveal it now since there's a lot of questioning going around based on that tier system payout scheme.
The reason why we chose to go down this road is actually rather simple. Some users will be playing 24/7 (I know one user in particular from the top10 who told me just yesterday how he puts an alarm at night to get up and start actively mining), and some users will be playing this game in a casual manner.

The tier system will be dividing these users up in 3 categories. Those who play A LOT - those who play mediocrely - those who play casually. NOT dividing users up in tiers would exclude any mediocrely and casually playing people from actually winning the prizes, as soon as enough users sign up. (we have more than 10.000 registered users at this moment).

With the tier system, there would be prizes for the best players amongst each group. That way the game would be competitive, but NOT require you to play it like madness. Instead you can choose to play as you see fit and still have a shot at winning the prizes.

In short:
The tier system is based on your activity and NOT how well you perform within a tier.

I'll probably be covering the cost for the server during the testing phases, maybe even month(s) longer

But I do agree that running bot games would be a drag, and would either require damn strong server(s) with would mean a huge investment and prob transfer to another company.
As for giving detailed sheets and so Cheesy
