Yeah the casino bit is exactly the comparison. I know people that have spent much time at a casino...win and lose yeah..but overall most folks if they REALLY paid attention to the cash value of it with win/loss percentage, will realize that they failed.
First time I brought with me 40 dollars and went home with 850 by the end of the night after wins and losses. The following week I had the bug still and went back...brought 600 dollars with me, thinking maybe I come home with a 2000% return again which would = 12000! b:dirty. I spend the night win and lose...eventually getting 60 more dollars from the ATM because I ran outta money. Now when I go...I play to play, not with expectations and I never leave b:cry
Here is an exerpt about statistics with a factor of 2 choices, flipping a coin.
Suppose you ask a subject to guess, before it is flipped, whether a coin will land with heads or tails up. Assuming the coin is fair (has the same probability of heads and tails), the chance of guessing correctly is 50%, so you'd expect half the guesses to be correct and half to be wrong. So, if we ask the subject to guess heads or tails for each of 100 coin flips, we'd expect about 50 of the guesses to be correct. Suppose a new subject walks into the lab and manages to guess heads or tails correctly for 60 out of 100 tosses. The probability of 60 correct guesses out of 100 is about 2.8%, which means that if we do a large number of experiments flipping 100 coins, about every 35 experiments we can expect a score of 60 or better, purely due to chance.
But suppose this subject continues to guess about 60 right out of a hundred, so that after ten runs of 100 tosses 1000 tosses in all, the subject has made 600 correct guesses. The probability of that happening purely by chance is less than one in seven billion,
Hmmm...I derailed there a bit ROFL. but you get the idea. Chance is chance, I need to look up the formula about chance rather than guesses. hehe (I failed! XD )
Basically what I am saying is that , the more you play does NOT increase your chances of a win statistically. But, then again..u cannot win if you don't play!!! It's many a lotteries drawing power.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

What didnt you understand in my phrase? and where are the mobs??
I said .. Why isnt it level dependant.
so a lv 70 gaining ornament would get lv 70 ornament , even if its ****.
and you wouldnt get lv 20 equipement for everybody .
What need do a lv 60 + have for the 500 hp/mp food? - level dependant would imply that YOU would get something you would have a use of.; and not some thing you will try to sell 10 times its prices to low levels.I look at all the trollers, and Pvpers.. and know they wouldnt have lasted 30sec on Camelot.

This event will pull a lot of in game coins OUT of the servers. Meaning that less people will have lots of money to BUY gold..etc. Therefore LOWERING the price of gold!
from which economy rules u got this out ?
2 things makes the gold prices raise
-annipacks like event (makes 1gold the possibility to get really GODLY ITEM)
-greed of player that sells it IN-GAME
so back on my thoughts:
if more player can afford the gold IN-GAME cuz of the high coin disponibility then the price of it would be LOWERED cuz more ppl having gold means:
more disponibility -> more competition -> more offert -> lower price of gold

Tell what you think would make the event better, rather than just complaining because you don't like it. Either way you got free fash for 9 days and a free bless box. There are your FREE things, but they aren't gonna force you to take those either.
i could tell so many thing to make this even better, things HAVE already BEEN SAID by other player, like
halloween special mobs; like elite mobs that drops the SHI.T of this event (candy and pills) that appears only during the night period of the day (see nightmare monster from other game)
instead of coin sink (?to FAKE lower gold prices ? b:puzzled) just lower the fee to 50k/2 angels(GS) so this already lower the gold prices
make some new fashion for HALLOWEEN and organize a contest of most scaring/funny pic took while doing trick or treat to the mobs
make the WRAITH ARMY attack mobs dressed like HALLOWEEN
there could be a tons of new ideas BUT just like spoons said, theyll focus on new expansion atm....
the only good thing of this event is that will drop a lil the gold prices by the guardian scroll exchange
and for the FREE fash thing, this is just a TEASING add that will make u buy the costume when it will be available on CS

I'm guessing you are one of those loner people who never talked to other or noticed the HUGE amount of cat shops in archosaur and what was in them that was selling? If you just take a look around you will notice what sells and what sells well.
1st: (loner ppl) FAIL b:laugh
im a barb so i dont even have to tell you HOW MUCH i relate with PPL
2nd:i DO know what sells well, and surely if i would make 8mil i WONT focus on DQ and HAY (since almost no1 buys DQ and the HAY is too specific drop, only veno and lvl 7X quest buy it and has no fixed price (im capable too of selling 1 hay for 20k just have the luck of selling it)) ill focus on U.SUB and hi mats.
3rd:being at lvl 20 and having 8mil by DQ n HAY (mob drops) means u grinded the hell out of this mob and sure ull be over 20 before even getting to 1mil.
so just say u made that char to make money and not that u can easily make 8milion from lvl1 to 20 b:chuckleCMON
to make this clear...im not complaining/QQing (since im not even playing now cuz of pc issue), im just looking at things under MY point of view.

You really think more more money in the game will lower gold prices?
1. More money in game = more money that 1 gold will go for.
2. Greed, and competition, will only make it stay that high, why would a greedy player want this guy to have more CS items if he is running around with 200+mil coins?
If you don't like this event, then ignore it, nobody is forcing you to take part in it. Go about the game like this never happened, because Eatswithspoons already said why it could not be better because the dev's are working hard on the new expansion. At least they gave us something, who cares if you have to spend 100k, I for one love the 20 cakes that you get, since it does not effect a apoc, or normal pot, it helps me for grinding, aoeing, and tanking. Thank you PWI again for this event, it has made more people happy than the ones that are pissed, because 9/10 the ones that are upset are the only ones that will ever post.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

ZOMG I love Nightfall.... and it only took me a lot :P But I chose to do it all. And I'm happy with all of the loot I got from all of the boxes, from my Halloween Treats, to the Headless Horsemen stuff, and then... my Nightfall Thanks soooo much pwi
As for everyone complaining.... eatwithspoons has already stated in one of these threads that they cannot please everyone. This event is optional... so if you dont' wanna waste the coins, DONT, its that simple :P Those of us that would like to try are welcome.
Not once have I see a GM or mod trying to disprove the coin sink theory. The reason: THEY WANT YOU TO USE COINS!!!! I know I've seen one of em say it in this thread too btw ^^
For those asking why not special instances/mob drops/etc... Devs are busy with Rising Tide expansion and didn't want to push the release date back (as told by eatwithspoons). Perhaps more reading of GM/Mods/Devs words, less complaining. ^^
Happy Halloween and Happy Gaming everyone even the complainers ^^_Jaysun_'s Wife

I did not read your post, because it is, what every other person says, its complaints, that a gm, already discussed, and yet you tell me to read. You wanted someone to reply to you so I did, also thanks I only have to read one paragraph you type, and you type me a long wall of text, good job spending your time typing. Anyway Thanks PWI again for this awsome event.
Also if you have more to type to me send to my message box :P that way you can type all you can, and I will send you small paragraphs like i just did wasting your time[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Not sure if you're asking a GM or who... but I'll try to help ya.
the 2 boxes give you a chance for 2 different horses, and 2 different types of flying mount.
Halloween Box-- Midnight, Nakir's Judgement, Israfel, and Wings of Daedalus.
Trick or Treat-- Nightfall, Galactic Beetle for untamed, The Drill flying mount for humans, and Brilliant Plumes wings for elves.
I didn't get any of the Halloween boxes this year, but I know the Trick or Treat ones also give Halloween Treats, Halloween candy boxes, common gems, and Headless Horsemans Amulet.
Hope this helps some ^^_Jaysun_'s Wife
