    Text **Why Did You Purchase Cents??**

    I KNOW.. i KNOW.. it appears to be a question with an overly obvious answer but... i was speaking w/ my alliance members.. (we have this convo all the time) and it turns out a majority of them are fairly well established in life and make more than enough to support them selves.. i.e. they have salary jobs or well paying construction/photography/business|administrative occupations. So they are freely able to purchase cents for kicks n' giggles.

    ...

    One fellow member stated he is trying to cut back on going out to the bars (says he spends around 100-200 a night easily which i fully believe ... quality mixed drinks w/ good ol' scotch are PRICEY!) so he is buying cents n' playing the wheel.. and has spent 2-300$ on this game in the past month of July alone. .. He stated it has helped him w/ his alcohol vice while helping to support out Evony staff lol. "EVONY.. the new Nicorette"

    Others stated they purchased cents because they needed speed ups, or some other immediate benefit in a crunch time situation where they needed an extra edge to conq someone or survive an onslaught of massive attacks..

    i personally spent $$$ on this game so i could have tons of lvl 10 barracks to wave it in peoples face and spin that WHEEL (IM SO ADDICTED TO IT) i also feel somewhat obligated to atleast spend amount equal to a typical MMO game because "Thanks" just doesnt put enough food on the table as $$$ does... plus i also wanted to see if i could make more than 50k catapults but every time i get in the 40k+ area.. my food expenditure is just so impossible to maintain n' bad things happen

    so with this in mind i was curious as to what reasons alot of you have for purchasing cents n' im quite certain some of you odd-Cats out there have some interesting reasons ...
    I have severe ADHD, Dyslexia, and I'm easily distracted by shiny th... HolySmokes A SPORK!

    I can state several reasons as to why I have NOT spent money.

    Until I am able to stay connected longer than 10-15 minutes without being disconnected (server 28), and I am NOT the only person.

    Until I am able to progress in the game without spending a month farming the medals for the next promotion.

    Until Evony decides to show more effort to inform its player base of changes and communicate when someone sends a bug report, billing dispute or any other matter similar to this.

    So, your question, why WOULD I spend money....to get mike scripts, advanced teleports and/or speedup items would probably be my reasoning.

    Investing in evony is throwing money away. It's like gambling but you have no chance of actually winning anything back.

    Look at medals for example.

    I spent $5.00 on the evony mini rewards as it was the only deal that seemed worthwhile. I believe I got around 240 cents and spent most, if not all of it on amulet spins. Glad I did too, I got a few medal boxes, 50 extra cents and a jackpot of 10 masters guidelines.

    Like dachronic though, I don't like the way the game is being managed right now and I won't be spending any more money until there are some major improvements.

    That's just the world chat channel, and no one worthwhile uses that anyway. Join an alliance and chat to your heart's content. There's a reason why people complain when they win speakers on the wheel, you know.
