Heh...

I just noticed this post from this morning:

Much discussion follows. My favourite comment on the image comes from my favourite forum personality, Zoe:

Notice how people are stupid enough to actually pay 180k+ per gold in the first place?

Well, guess who's responsible?

My EVIL GIRLFRIEND, at 11:12:53am this morning:

My EVIL GIRLFRIEND, 6 seconds later:

See? I told you all that she's evil. She made Sanctuary Gold prices jump from 190k to 720k, thus killing Perfect World (well, for about an hour anyway, until Gold prices recovered back down to 190k).

But, hey, at least she's filthy rich thanks to Jolly Old Jones!

    Yeah, we already know you are doing everything in your power to kill off the game. What are you going to do with all the coins once you do? You can't take them with you to another game.

    Do you think being rich in a game actually means something? It doesn't

    Do you think being rich in a game helps you in real life? It doesn't.

    Why do you think it does?

    Oh crud. Now I'll never get those 100 Spring Packs you owe me! b:cry

    She got a PM from Tark about 20 minutes later, btw, going, "omg! Have you seen Gold prices?!?" Poor guy was just trying to convert the night's cat-shop sales back into Gold.

    I think what I learned from this is that a large portion of the players who were/are doing the Jolly Jones thing tend to get up at around 10am to noonish on the weekends.

    How did that make gold prices jump? Notice what buyers are paying? That part didn't change. She made gold prices jump from 195k to... 187k. The person with 181 buys at 185.1k arguably did more damage to your gold prices, as that simply makes everyone bid over 185.1 because they don't want to wait around.

    If your GF was really trying to mess up prices, she would then put 50 buy orders at 250, 50 at 250.5, 50 at 251, 50 at 255, and 200 at 260. That would cause people to start bidding at 260.1 and above. Once there's a healthy amount of gold over 260, the buys put in under that could be retracted, and you pay nothing more than the listing fee which would come to 2,046,500 coin and require 102,325,000 in seed money in addition to what it would take to buy up the gold people had for sale. At this point you could sell the 27 gold that you purchased, to people that placed buy orders, at 260.1+ each, for 6762600 coin, which would put you about a million short of what you spent to buy all the gold plus the listing fees. If you bought up gold at a couple points over a day or two you could turn a profit and actually damage the economy pretty bad. All you did in those screenshots though is waste coin.

    Is this girlfirend even real? I've noticed you consistently post about her and while it is fun as a running joke, the fact that her identity is never mentioned does make me wonder... is this like a Tyler Durden thing? Is there like a PW fight club? Aren't people that hang around Pking in SP kinda lame?

    She sounds too good to be true, which does remind me of another great movie, you know, the one with Forest Whitaker and Stephen Rea.

    The joke would had been even funnier if she had rigged ALL the BUY orders to 900k, not the irrelevant sell orders....
