    Where is GGS?  This would be a good time to let us know whether or not these coin numbers are serious.......

    @gavinfarms (US1)

    GGS is in Hamburg, Germany, where the local time is 7:22 pm on Friday.

    I wouldn't expect any useful answers before Monday, if ever :D

    I'm just farming normally, so I am happy enough with any small crumbs thrown my way.  But for those who are throwing their all into it, compensation should be better all round.

    Also, the conversion rate definitely is different for different servers.  Unless this is based on rankings, this should be addressed.  Maybe some clarification from GGS?

    dont forget, that its the top 100 players from each server, the points comes from as far as i have understood it.

    Thank you for the trader since now we can buy a lot of things (in principle). However, I think that the ratio of coins is very low: at the end of the golden week event one could afford to buy several good prizes (if you were lucky to encounter them), and it lasted shorter than this event. At the end of this event I wonder how many are able to buy a decent reward. Moreover, I really dislike that the coins are not based just in personal work and are also based in server rankings (rather disappointing to hear that somebody in a server that scored higher than my server got double the amount of points I got with less than the score I have). I believe the ratio of coins we get needs to be increased (or the prices lowered) and I strongly believe that all players with the same score should get the same independently of their server: The server score already counts for the final rewards.

    I was hoping for more decorations to buy..or more practical stuff.  :/
  • Yes Letty.  I looked there also. :(   Thanks for the advice.  I'm going to send info to support.  (sigh.)

    Where does one find this boat, grasshopper?
  • Spurgiukas (INT1)Spurgiukas (INT1) INT1 Posts: 235
    • Where is the special boat? - Well good question, nobody seems to know yet lol - We have sent out the Coastguard to try and find it, hopefully we will have some news by Monday

  • I'll get the cartels to keep an eye out, as well. Not sure what they will do with it if they find it first, however...

    I did get 1365 coins, busted my butt!!!! going to save them up and hopefully there will not be an issue getting whatever I finally buy with them....

    hope you get it resolved @farmer1st (US1)

    Two questions:

    1. Is this a recurring event?

    2. If so, will we keep our coins from event to event?

    It is not going to matter.  This is total waste of time unless you are on big server.  When I do over 130k points in 1 week and just because I am on a server that does very little, I get less for my work then someone on big server that does half of what I did.   HOW IS THIS FAIR!!!!!   I want to put my farm on another server.  Wish I could move server.

    Coins should be given to the amount of points you earned and not earned with server ranking.  I worked very hard and I am punished, this need to be fixed.  My gold and time is worth less than the players on big server, why should I use ANY gold now.

    I would like to know what someone on Jap server got for around the same points earned and how many other players got over 130k points in week 1.

  • Don't know why you are saying you got small amount, I did over 130k and only got 880 coins, I really did work my butt off, how is this fair at all  Totally ripped off.  @SophiaLorraine (US1)  I did 2.5 times what you did and got 200 less coins

    @Byron Longford (AU1)

    From DE1 (Germany):

    Rank 14 with 108,000 points = 2,065 coin 
    Rank 1,474 with 38.392 points = 1,226 coins 

    The JP1 forums are pretty dead, there's only 19 posts in their whole WWC thread. There's some mention in there of the top 50 players getting a 7,000 coin bonus, but I don't know how true that is, it's only one mention.

    It could be that coins are paid out at a standard rate across all servers, then they're giving a set number of coins as a bonus to each player ON the server depending on where their server ranked.  In fact, that kinda makes sense, otherwise they'd have to set the payout rate for "points->coins" every week, on every server.

    Would still have the same effect that you mention though, those servers that are really low in the rankings wouldn't get much of a bonus, so your overall coins would be lower.
  • @Southern (US1) These numbers are getting worse, so someone who did 1/3 of my total get 400 more coins and another that did 30k less gets nearly 2.5 time more.

    Only way to be fair is just go on points earned.

    I don't disagree. Heck, even I got more points than you did, 1,080 coins for ~50k points, and I'm only ranked in the 200's. That person on DE1 got 12k fewer points than I did, and more coins just because of the server he (or she) is on. Why bother working my butt off working harder for fewer coins?

    They should have made coins pay out the same across all the servers, and if they (GGS) wanted to give a bonus for server rankings, it should have been in a non-numerated form, like a Deco with different values depending on where your server placed that week, or some other type of award that doesn't penalize individual players simply for being on a low population server.
  • Byron, I'm really sorry to hear that!!  and NO it is NOT fair!!........I'm not sure how the distribution is workin' but it's evidently not goin' by what the individual is doin'........It must be calculated according to the server's total or something........All I know is that after seeing the "valuable" things available to purchase, I'm not at all as excited as I was at first.........bah humbug!.........no wait!  too early for that........lessee.........this is more like it.......Image result for images for sticking tongue outBLECH, and patooey!   LOL..........

    That's really disappointing to hear that the number of coins that are received are linked to how your server did. In my opinion, the number of coins received should be linked to how many points you earned, not how your server ranked out of all the other servers.

    I know this all too well....  But putting this out there, right on there way out the door, is management malpractice.  

    I am sure that they don't want us to think that they did this on purpose, so that they would not be available to engage in dialogue, and thus giving us the weekend to "get over it."  But they keep doing this, and at some point you have to conclude that it just might be purposeful.

    It's not available yet. Probably not till Monday at the earliest.

    {Edit: Correction - it's been removed, at this point it will probably never be available}.

    Heh.. I dunno, that +500 Storage Deco looks awfully tempting. :)

    Lets not be naive here......every "mistake/miscalculation" has been done on purpose. If enough people complain about it they will give us a small compensation package for it and claim to be sorry. It happens way too often to be an accident. 
  • gavinfarms (US1)gavinfarms (US1) US1 Posts: 2,273
    I am just aghast still....at my paltry 1355 coins.  It will be very hard to motivate myself or my group with coin numbers like these.
