Interesting update

A bad joke, win a 4ffa coin game and get from ~30% Level 50 to ~30% Level 51 is this true? In not coins game you would need a 40ffa to get the same result. Fizzer this coin idea support "cheating with money" think about it!!!

Please don't say it's over for you. Other players getting points doesn't hurt you at all. Your games still give you exactly the same amount of points. I do think it should be much less of a disparity between the 2 (if these numbers are real and not because of some other factor), but it really doesn't effect you at all for not playing in them, unless your goal it to have the most points on the site.

Yes your right however i feel pranked. You could play the exactly same game but in coin games you gets ten time higher points. Thats still not fair. For example if you work in a job and would do the same things like your other worker but gets 10times lesser money than you would feel pranked too.

theres a 50ffa coin game going on now

Or you could buy membership and already have the level advantages. I don't see how this is worse from your perspective.

you could even buy it with coins, lol

I wont buy anything. the Level arent the importents things but the game still should be fair. Dont care if you use money or not. But i think 10x more points is very much. I could explain it better in german.
+ i cant use it because i under18

actually its only 5x points

Why does a level 55 care about points anyway? You've unlocked everything. You win. Now get lost freeloader.

2 words of caution to people playing coin games:

- Playing a game with more than 2 people (at least for the auto-games), Warlight takes a higher percentage of the earnings. The 2 player auto games pay out 90% of the total to the winner, but the 4 player auto game only pays out 80% of the total payed in.

- Read the ToS, in it's entirety, especially this part:

"Warlight receives a general processing fee of $2.00 (USD) for each withdrawal You make from Your Account, in addition to any additional bank processing fees related to transferring funds. Warlight receives a general processing fee of $4.25 (USD) for emptying a Player's Account below the 1000 coin level."

So not only do you need the high level of $75 dollars to be able to withdraw, but when you do withdraw, WL takes $6.25 of that, leaving you with $69.75/$75, or 93% of your winnings.

This type of "fine print" is common in gaming and similar transactions, but I'm just trying to provide some caution to you guys who are thinking of spending money on coins. I'm not saying you shouldn't buy them, or that you should take this at my word rather than reading the ToS in full for yourself, only voicing some concerns I have and giving more visibility to them.

@blortis its because i dont like it to gets disadvantages. It is principel and not because of points

Edited 12/7/2014 20:56:08

disadvantage? Please explain what sort of advantage players get by earning more points than you.

@Darkpie If you work in factory x and gets 5 $ per hour and a other works in factory y (do the exactly same things) and gets 25 $ per hour than its not fair. In this game it chance nothing you have right but the point is you use more time and gets lesser points. I say it again its the principel. I shouldnt care about points but its the thing that i use more time for lesser.

Right, but this is a business, and you're not putting in the same "hours". Other players are paying into the system and you are not, hence the difference. Think about if you're both working in a factory, the other guy is putting in 40h/week, and you're putting in 0h/week. Should you get paid the same? No, be thankful you're getting paid at all for putting nothing in.

Yes its a Business. Factory x is normal and Factory y is coins and so they gets differnt money because they buyed or buyed not And they working more or less the same hours. I acept it
And i wont think anymore about this topical because i not old enough to use the coins

Okay, My attempt to turn this thread away from more complaining....

Ideas for Coin Games:

Seasonal Ladder:
Buy into seasonal ladder for X coins, top Y players get payouts.

Tournaments:
Single Elim, Double Elim, and Round-Robin tournaments, similar to Seasonal Ladder Games, with a single buy-in, and prizes at the end.

Is buying coins for other players an option?


Now, a question about coins.
My playing is drastically cut down lately, but I think I saw these No-Luck games with first pick decided by a player that commits pick orders first. I also saw coin games that are multi-day. I also saw a fairly empty coin game lobby.

Putting these three together, I see that there may be a distinct advantage to joining a multi-day coin game that has been open with one player in it for a long time. The idea being, you could jump right into the game, and get picks in before the opponent even realizes the game has started. Is that right?

Anyone can use coins. You just can't withdraw them back into cash if you're a minor. Everyone can get the 5x point multiplier.
