    Hold down Y then place a small electric motor with off-centered weight on the axle. >_>

    No but, really, holding down Y and click about 5 times a second would just take 5-6 mins.

    Some time in Feb or March a GM said they would be bringing it back. They never did.

    They actually weren't all that popular when they came out.

    got 500 orbs.

    just move the CS table to where the 'buy' & pop up says yes/comfirm on top of each other.

    so when u click buy u dont need to move the mouse. so just lift ur mouse off the surface n click away while doin something else. suggestions: fapping, reading, watchin movie, sleep clickin, on phone, txtin, lookin at dwnloads. spend 5mins talkin to ur mother.

    Pressing the "Y" key works better imo. Just leave your finger the Y key and do a crazy click-press-Y-key cycle.

    Hmm... I should incorporate that into my signature somehow...

    1. "I survived BP's attempt at genocide."
    2. "Proud survivor of human environmental destruction."
    3. "Keep PW petroleum free."

    Or photoshop oil onto my tideform and be like...

    If you play around a bit with WarrenWolfy's refining spreadsheet (http://public.sheet.zoho.com/public/warren.forrest/perfect-world-refine-costs-8), it turns out that it's pretty borderline whether they're worth it at $50. It depends on exact gold and Mirage Stone prices, but at best you're saving a very small amount. It's certainly not worth waiting for the sale, even if it's worth taking advantage when/if it happens, and it might not even be that.

    They're worth it if you're going to craft 11* and 12* orbs, which is why most people want them now. And, there is a bit of a savings if you're already at +7 and want to go to +8, however they're not like 10* orbs which are suitable for +8-+10.

    Packs can't be put in unless we take down the servers again, so we're going to stick with how it is currently, and my thoughts are with the families of the thousands of mice that will be overburdened for the next 6 days.

    I think he meant a sale on dragon orbs in packs of 10s, not some other type of packs. Will we not have those after all then since this sale is expected to last a week?

    So how do sales go up on weeks where we don't have maint if you have to take the servers down to put things in?

    Are we just going to have to deal with 20 silver orbs instead of 18 or will you put the 10 star packs in next week. As it stand every 50 orbs you buy is 1 more gold than you would be paying with normal sale prices. A nice little trick to get people to pay more, eh.

    so how will be compensated for all this?

    for example:

    two items from +5 to +7 are approx 1000 orbs

    1000 orbs is 200 gold atm

    with 10 packs 1000 orbs at 1.8 gold per 10 are 180 gold

    that's a difference of 20 gold or in other words in smaller quantities 10%

    i consider that HUGE

    Pretty sure they will give us the packs on 10 for 2 gold this time.

    Frankie we all know servers do not have to come down from a sale item to be put in CS. So tells us what this really means. Will there be a sale on 10 pack next week or you blowing us off?

    Oh you know they are blowing us off >< just like with the DQ compensation. There has been no update from them in almost 2 months now and doubt that there ever will. b:shocked

    Too bad for them too i was going to purchase 100 gold worth of D Orbs (got 6 chars to worry about) but not like this. Thier loss is my gain.

    ditto, I too am holding my gold until I know what is going on. Last time, something similar to this happened. One week there was a 1 gold sunshine pack, then the next week it was packs of 45 gold thing for 50 packs again, although I didn't buy any lmao. I did laugh in my head on those idiot merchants who actually bought those packs for 1 gold each though.

    All right guys, the official word is:


    The 1-star Dragon Orb sale will be extended by one week, and 1-star Dragon Orb packs, discounted the standard amount, will be put on sale after maintenance next week.

    Both sales will end August 4th at 1:00AM.

    I can't complain too much about this solution. I does solve the problem, but I find it odd that we're being told they can't add a sale without shutting down the servers. Haven't we had weekend sales before? On items like pet packs?
