Shadow(mcvities) Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 I was thinking today that many people spend well over £200 pounds on the MD Shop.Good thats keeps the game running, brilliant . Then I though(I know dangerous ><) Why don't we have a day where all things bought from the MD shop are deactivated for that day, who knows, if it is possible it could even be turned into a competition!!!! That way we can see who really is the the strongest/ cleverest when they are stripped from all their backups. Things that SHOULD be(if possible) removed for a day each month are. [b][u]Creatures[/u][/b] Drachorns(rustgolds) Bloodpack Archers Pimped Grasans Imps Santas Nutcrackers [b][u]Boosters[/u][/b] [u]Tokens[/u] All tokens. [u]Temporary[/u] All. [u]Permanant[/u] Vitality Boosters Stat Boosters. Like I said this is just a idea that could and should be worked on by brighter people than me ^^, So please do post your comments on this!!!

apophys Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 What about extra creature slots? I certainly like the idea; maybe it'll be possible to put a lot of people in some kind of dream...
Mya Celestia Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 Tokens and creatures may be possible, but I'm not sure the stats could be removed without causing massive issues. It is an interesting idea.
dst Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 Hmm...stats...no, I don't think they can be removed(it's a bit difficult to calculate how much each player got using from the shop) but the crits and tokens can. And yes, I would like to see that also. And not just for a day.For at least a week. This way you can give the opportunity to test things to more players.
Shadowseeker Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 Then again, don't forget those who PAID for things...I can imagine not all will be happy, after all it's just taking part of MD out for no "apparent" reason. (I didn't pay, but yeah ) The idea is interesting, but might prove a hassle.
Lady Renata Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 The idea is good.Really good.But it is possible? [img]http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/public/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif[/img] just wondering. And yes,more than just a day.

krazedkid101 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 Pretty good idea but lucky me i dont use those creats =b
Nex Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 stats, at least the 5% for sword and shield, cannot be removed since they are instantly and permanent. if the former values of each time the 5% bonus was given haven't been saved somewhere there is no way to tell how much a specific person got. anyway, an interesting idea i'd have suggested a place at which tokens have no effect, but a realm-wide 'purism week' (well, except for extra creature slots, as apophys mentioned) also sounds pretty good Shadow(mcvities) 1
Shadow(mcvities) Posted August 5, 2009 Author Report Posted August 5, 2009 1) No the don't think creature slots can/should be. 2) At first I did think more than a few days but was not sure how the idea would go down ^^ 3) The stats I did think would be a very hard point. 4) (To shadowseeker) I think that it would do some people good to lose those creatures and tokens etc for a week or so...it would give them a chance too actually remember what it was like in mp3, instead of being bored of winning so much.

Root Admin Muratus del Mur Posted August 5, 2009 Root Admin Report Posted August 5, 2009 i don't think removing paid things is an option, mainly because those things help players get permanent benefits such as stats and i have no way to know what stats someone has because he used that mighty rusty for example. An other thing that could be close to what you want is MP7 level, in mp7 all stats are zero, characters fighting with their "empty" rituals, magic and other such things. ..still a lot of work to do for that level Shadow(mcvities) 1
Shadow(mcvities) Posted August 5, 2009 Author Report Posted August 5, 2009 Aww so no way at all for it too happen? Sasha Lilias 1
Liberty4life Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 umm yea mp7 would be much better for this sort of thing Shadow(mcvities) 1

(Zl-eye-f)-nea Posted August 6, 2009 Report Posted August 6, 2009 [b]I'm going to be devils advocate here a second:[/b] Surely the true strongest or cleverest is determined by those who can still beat people with extras by the standard means. What does this accomplish exactly? Im assuming its the want of a level playing field, but that cant be done if you consider HC rewards, dream mutation jokers etc etc. So if I do consider that it just seems like its a way to (for some reason or other...) punish those who pump money into the game and reward those who don't, because the only thing you could judge in the end would be things bought from the shop and things not bought from the shop, and if that be the case im not sure its wise on many different levels.

Root Admin Chewett Posted August 6, 2009 Root Admin Report Posted August 6, 2009 Firstly any kind of stat boasters could not removed. So they are out already. They are also a main part of your idea since these will have boasted a player quite considerably. creatures wouldnt have to be removed, where all these problems could occur but it might be easier if they are just disabled for a period of time. Again this will require a lot of coding for Mur Tokens again would have to be disabled, Not exatly a great deal but again it would require more coding for Mur The shop could also be disabled for the day, again which will need to be coded. and yes becuase the stats would still be there it would be just like rewinding back a year and a half when there were only about 3 rituals that anyone used so they could win and that your stats nearly always mean if you would win or lose.
Grido Posted August 7, 2009 Report Posted August 7, 2009 no stats, VE/VP at all it'd be a fun (slight) variation on MP7, and oh my, yes, mp7 is far from ready (that's regardless of any additions he's going to do for it)
