    "Sale of the week" has been upgraded to "newly created costume bug of the week". Bold strategy.

    and we already have requests to make the newly created bugs... costume features into actual costumes.

    Sales were weak, it was nice they tried but when 100 other full games have deeper discounts than the cost of minor features in this game, their sales become very unattractive.

    Whole game needs a deep discount across the board.

    And before anyone tries to say that lowering prices doesn't help the game, it in fact does.

    Lowering prices to something everyone can afford means more players buying and more sales overall.

    They should have a 100 Zen Item of the Day.
    That way every brand spanking new player with free 100Z could buy that one item, if they wanted.
    If it was team teleports for 100Zen I could buy 19 of them today .
    I might not do that, I might be able to stop myself at like 3 or 6 or 12.

    Yet still i would appreciate a word from the devs regarding this, if it is just a mistake or if week discounts are officially removed

    Nothing is on sale this week - but check the price!

    Just as your parents always told you, Nothing is free!

    I mean that the price of Nothing is nothing. Nothing is free. What, didn't you get that dinned into your head as a child?

    No.


    As a child I was too much wasting time at getting useful replies instead of useless puns.


    Looks i am continuing to waste it. That is what I should din to myself.

    Well, that went in the negative quick.

    congratulations on making my early morning forum read, slightly more ocnfusing than normal.. or is that abnormal.

    so we're not having a Nothing special this weekend,we're having a hideout special.

    so how many points to do we get for hiding out from the special?and how long do we have to hide for?
