I've been interested in playing this game....However, I have no idea what its like and if I will be good or not.
Also- It seems like it is a game where the more you play the higher your score will be, so what incentive do people have to join late during the week?
.01 does seem a bit much...heck I would really like to try it out but I don't want to get in now because I feel I would just lose the .01....
I agree , there needs to be some incentive for players to join late, I had an idea that player could join on the last day for 15% fee or something like that? that way they can get some practice in for next round cheaply, and also it would bump up the Core prize a little bit on the last day?
I'm glad you are having fun playing ragecore!
We are more than 50% through this first round and have so far given away .144 BTC in Bonuses!
I promised something for the 2nd and 3rd place winner, and I've posted it in the OP. After much thought, 2nd and 3rd place players will be added automatically into the next round without having to pay. However, because there was no payment, they will not be eligible for the core prize. From many messages (Thanks for everyone's input) from players in the game that there should be more prizes for players in the game so I will be doing a poll on what we should be doing for Round 3 and going forward.
Any input is appreciated and will be considered.
That's great about 2nd and third prizes , I wonder could it be set up so that 2nd and 3rd place get some kind of "free entry credit" instead of automatic entry into next round, I mean so that it doesn't need to be used on the very next round, cos top players might want to take a break in between rounds.
Please feel free to say what you think and give your input:
1. Remove the Rage Bonus.
This will allow an extra 55% to give away to the #1 alliance, and #1 galaxy.
2. Lower the entry price.
I've had one or two people say that 0.01 is too much, and should be 0.001 - 0.002.
Currently, 2 people is a large % of players currently playing, so I am taking this into consideration but want to see if anyone else feel's the same.
Im not too bothered about lowering the entry fee as it makes the core prize grow quicker @ 0.01, but if it would suit more people , how about something like halving the entry fee to 0.005btc, I think 0.001 would be too low to ever get any kind of decent core prize, I want to see the core prize get to 1BTC soon!
I think removing the Rage Bonus is a good idea, and I think it would be cool to put a higher % of the fee into the core prize.
I also like the idea No.1 alliance prize, not so sure about No.1 Galaxy prize, as the player has no control over which other players are in their galaxy, so it would just be kind of random prize?
