Greetings all,

A few changes have been made to the Casino installed.

A maximum daily winnings per 24 hours is set as follows:

All Staff or Subscribers 10,000
Regular members 5,000
Verified 5,000
Unverified 2,000

All games are set to deduct 20% from winnings

The Casino is primarily an option to make additional Gil when playing the battle Mod and not a place to earn millions of GIL and make the Battle Mod to easy to compete at and win.

All Arcade games will at the most get you 1,000 gil per top score acheived (Cant just beat your old score) Occasionaly we will have some games set as special games that you can win 10,000 gil for acheving a High Score..

Forum Posting is after all at the heart of all forums and we would love to see members posting legitimate topics or possibly in Our Forum games such as word games, etc. This will receive random amounts for posting and also starting topics.

The Battle Mod will most likely be removed and reinstalled with a stable version that is from original site.

I see the battle mod has already gone :D How long before it's replaced if at all?

[Ken]

It is hopefully going to get replaced tonight if not tommorow

[Vampy]

Sorry it's been so much work for you :(

Has the Bank been removed as well, can,t see the icon. If so, what about our Gils that was in there, are they gone forever?

Unfortunately we will all have to start over as the bank and attack mod are tightly woven together. The Battle mod we had in use was having to many issues and I will be installing the one from the original site that does work. In removing one and getting ready for the other to have left the bank and have someone eventually click on it would have caused sql errors.

Good news if at all is we should have a stable battle mod and now some of us has a little more experience on how it works and have learned a few strategies we will be able to use.

I'd also like to ask that points be earned for scoring in the arcade as it was before rather than as it is now, just a highscore - earning Gil will be very difficult otherwise and would simply encourage lots of spam posts

Current Plan is to turn that on once I get the casino and bank updated. We will also have limited number of Guilds available and a Overseer to watch to insure the guildmasters have gil to distribute out among other things. Suggestion time is at hand it is gonna take me days to get it all going and I WILL RESET the BATTLE IN A FEW DAYS for clean start, I am testing ONLY now

is it possible to allocate everyone, say a 1000 Gils to get off the ground?

Absolutely we will have a much more structured way to obtain gil and ways to promote to new levels.

Currently all will start out with 10 attacks per round and will increase by 1 every 10th level up to a maximum of 16 attacks per round. I am testing the Battle Mod now and feel free to look around however I have to rebuild bots (a minimum of 16) but will have more and that is a pretty intensive job as I have to create actual site accounts and passwords then join each one to their guild. It was quite evident GIL was way to easy to make and it was out of hand with some players in the billions.

As I stated there will be an Overall Guild Manager who will work with Guild Masters who will offer paid incentives to reach levels or level up bonuses. I have been playing in an active battle mod and have a better insight on how they should be ran now. We will also have a limited number of Guilds allowed (5 or 6 maximum) and users can choose to be a part of a guild or stand alone. If someone chooses to be stand alone they will also receive some type of level up bounses (GIL) from the Guild Manager but ALL guilds will have to abide by the same payouts and all will have a password protected forum to discuss Guild promotions etc. I also plan on having competitions along the way to promote the battle mod and existing members to include some possible site subscription upgrade for a winning guild etc or maybe even a physical prize of some sort.

I plan on being the Guild Manager and will oversee the Battle Mod.

The Bank interest will be set to daily and will payout subscribing members at 5% interest and non subcribers at 3%, Arcade games will be selected randomly to be used as another way to get bonus GIL for competition awarded at $15,000 for the winners.

As Guild Master each will be given resources to include Higher end potions and elixers to be transferred to its members for reviving etc. This will be helpful in the early stages and at some point members will not need the Guild Masters assistance.

Nice one, can,t wait.

[Vampy]

That sounds like an excellent set up, very close to what was originally planned but difficult to work with the old mod version

Fingers crossed this will work as it should without the bugs we found before :D

At this point I would like to say Thank You Rodney for all the work you've put in to setting this up, I know it's been a nightmare for you and I feel guilty for giving you so much work , being the one who suggested the battle mod be brought back in the first place.

If you need help with anything then please don't hesitate to ask - you know where to find me.

Macken, It is a game, it's supposed to be fun. Enjoy trying to get back to where you previously where but with a fair casino. We reset arcade scores from time to time, I see this as being no different. Good luck with earning it back, the competition should be fun.
