    Seems rather random, someone from Na21 received this mail 2 days ago.

    As with almost all things we test, this is random. If it is successful we'll widen the scope.

    ...but if it's not successful, some people will have the opportunity for discounts / freebies and others will not.

    A "test market" is geographically isolated from the other markets, however in this instance, the "market" is a server, which constitutes a single "market area".

    Players may be geographically removed from each other due to the nature of this being a game available from most locations on the planet, but they are all part of the same "market area" (a server).

    If you want to test market something, you need to pick a server and offer it to EVERYONE on that same server, else if the promotion is not continued, some people get advantages, where others do not.

    The way this is being handled at present is inherently unfair if the promotion does not continue past your "test" because of how you've structured the "test market".

    Finally 100% proof(even though we had 99.9% proof already )
    Now we all wait for the email....... and hopefully they will "widen the scope" soon.

    I agree, it's simply giving a few an unfair advantage while others just have to wait (if they even decide to open it to others). IF they had given this chance to EVERYONE on the SAME server as you had mentioned, it would have taken away this unfair gameplay advantage.

    It's a wonderfull idea and I give the Evony team a pat on the back for it; I just believe it should have been handled differently.

    To clarify, I too don't mind the whole test it out thing, but my issue is what they've defined as a "test market". Sure, success or failure of the promotion can be determined either way, but with the way it is set up right now, if the result is deemed a failure and the promotion is not continued, then some people will have had opportunities for cashing in on rewards, while others will not have even had the opportunity.

    I think it's worse for me. I received the mail yet my offer wall isn't there. Ask acer if you don't believe me. The page just ends after the payment options. No wall!
