    The offer right above Elusive death is indeed legitimate offer of coins, as clarified by Rota and dawn.

    My Lord, this is an awesome deal you should come take the chance my lord.


    I would spend 105$ on Evony if they would send me an Evony hat and T-Shirt

    Dawnseeker can I borrow your evony hat?

    Dawn - the popup won't click in Chrome - or it wouldn't for me. I wrote to customer service asking how to take advantage of it, but they said "sorry you didn't get it".

    I haven't seen the pop-up since and I'd like to give Evony more of my money. Can you tell me how I can take advantage of this "sale" - given that the one popup I received didn't work?

    Try mozilla firefox to see if that works then.



    Though chrome is usually perfect.

    how come everybody doesn't get this pop up dawn? not that i want it lol but why only give it to some and not all? it gives people a small financial advantage over the money spenders who didn't get it.

    That's weird. I'll let them know it didn't work for you. Is anyone else getting this error? If so, please let me know what browser you're using, and make sure you have the latest version of flash. I'm pretty sure everyone will have a chance more than once.

    Pretty sure?

    I'll test the latest flash thing for you. That is a valid possible reason why I didn't see it, but I'm using the old flash version to make the chat window less jumpy because you all have not really fixed that issue.

    Edit:

    IE 7 with Flash 10.1.85.3 (latest flash version) did not make the advertisement appear.
    Firefox 3.6.10 with Flash 10.1.85.3 did not make the advertisement appear.

    My Firefox installation clears cache and cookies upon browser close, so that troubleshooting step has been done as well.

    Default Evony Offer

    Question: Why can the same not be done in this instance?

    Statement: Not Everyone can avail of this offer, as not everyone gets the popup. Less than half of the members in my alliance have the option of availing of the offer.

    Question: Where's the fairness in that?

    Question: Does the offer of $65 for 800 game coin also come with the evony happiness chest and a key to open one of the 600 evony happiness chests I already own?

    To me it seems we are exchanging 150 game coins for 2 free evony happiness chests and 2 keys to open 2 more happiness chests. So I ask myself this question: Is it worth it?

    Can someone in evony please clarify all this for us? I think all paying customers would appreciate that much.

    To expand on what you're asking, I think a pre-notification of the start date of an advertisment and the contents of the advertisment is not what people are asking for in this instance. It certainly is not what I am asking for, as due to my former retail experience, I know that is not industry-standard.

    What could've been done, however, would've been a system mail like this:

    Dear customers,

    In the coming weeks, we will be using a new advertising strategy. Offers may come as a system mail or as an in-game window. If you see an in-game window, please do not be alarmed.

    [insert whatever positive marketing-related closing remarks]
    Also, a link to a "mockup" ad, with a sample image of what a theoretical advertisment might look like, with "EXAMPLE" or "SAMPLE" watermarked into the image to give a clear indication that it was not a real advertisement could've been done. That still would not have disclosed the specifics about the ad campaign, but would've provided enough disclosure so that people wouldn't be confused when the ad campaign kicked off.

    As for my account, I still have not seen this ad show up for me, so even if there was an announcement like what I just described, I'd still be left feeling that I was not valued enough as a customer to receive the sale offer, and thus it would work as a disincentive, which I would guess they wouldn't want to alienate customers...
