    I think what I'm hearing here is "they are making a lot of money but will Evony survive?" Or something like that. Isn't this, more or less, admitting UMGE's business plan is working?
    Actually, with all the posts about not paying anymore on the forums, the real question is "they are not making a lot of money, so will Evony survive?" Companies make profits by finding equlibriam between total cost and total revenue. They do this by changing output and price until marginal revenue reaches it’s highest point compaired to marginal cost. After that, anymore alterations will start giving diminishing returns.(yeah, I teach Economics to) With Evony’s price per product being so out of balance, the total profit that Evony is currently receiving is not giving them the most profit. Other online games have been around A LOT longer than Evony, yet cost considerably less because they have found the price that gives them the most profit over time. And if greed is so good, then why was it the cause of America’s economic collapse last year, and the one coming at the start of the fourth quarter? Greed is what caused a WWII veteran to freeze to death last winter because he was late on ONE energy payment.
