Contest

Guest · Post by **Guest** » 13.09.2007, 14:09

Any contest this week? Next week? This month?
I bought a premium account so I could take full advantage of the contest. Looks like my ROI of those coins is going to be very low now

There is no contest this week. But the game works very well even without a contest. And what does your premium account have to to with the contest? You can take part at any contest with a normal account...

I have 60 buildings that are for my normal business, the extra 40 from the premium account were to be my contest buildings.

You're right, the game works without the contest, however, it's alot more fun with the contest. Well it is in my opinion at least.
So, will the contest start on Sunday then??

we have to understand the admins are busy

I just wanted to say that I only play this for the contest

Otherwise it's just boring, contests really spice up things

You are right: The contest makes the game more interesting. But I disagree that it

I like contest, good chance too make money, but I don't depend on them any. Thats kind of pthetic to have 40 buildings only for contest, and contest chnage usually often, so even more so faliable plan.

I sell those 40 buildings after the contest ends back to the system. Why on earth do you think this plan is fallible? Making contest product has a higher profit than anything else by a long long way.

If you haven't figured that out, maybe your whole business plan is fallible!!

I can't get into the personal attacks etc... part of this thread, but I do agree that leaving slots free for contests can be very good plan.

(40) 20m2 buildings for each contest can make many times their cost in two weeks. Add the return on selling them, even to the system, and a lot of money can be made.

I think that the issue here is math - people don't like to do it. Go do the math. If you still think contests are not worth doing, show us why here, using it.

Otherwise, all I hear is someone ignorant telling someone else that they are ignorant.

Who was that?

j/k...

Well it was pointless making bread for me, I don't have any plantations. The rest of my buildings are expanded way past the 20 sqm, so I can't make much money from this contest. The contest doesn't always work for me these days. Thanks for the sausages though, I still have some in the fridge to go with the bread.

I suppose once you reach a certain stage of expansion, you can make/save more money producing things like water or power. I think the best way to make money and not be in the contest is to produce wood. The price has gone through the roof and I'm not sure it will come back down.

I'm not whining about wasting money on coins because theres no contest.

So I think I am doing quite well. Whining doesn't make your image better, but taking a blow and going on like it is nothing, shows you can take yourself, not depend on others.

Hey guys.

I am really sorry but I think I have to disappoint you.

There are still problems of communication in the Kapi-team and thus we don't know how this will go on.
I am already working on another solution but that will unfourtunately take its time.
You will be able to read on official announcement when I managed to turn my "vision" into reality. Please don't attack each other or the moderators/programmers/admins now. They are informed and we all will work out a solution.

Thanks for your understanding.

So, we are two days away from the Contest and newspaper issue day, any predictions or any updates about the matter??

With all the income the owners get from this site, can't they pay an administrator? Even if they paid someone to do 10 hours work a week, that would be enough to sort out most of the big issues?
