Mega LXP boxes

notretirepujolsnotretirepujols Registered Users, Member 5 Posts
They haven't been in store since last Friday (I believe it was Friday, may have been Saturday?) yet half of the specials have mega lxp boxes. I understand these guys want their money, but without grabbing my 40 mega lxp boxes I won't be in position to cycle cap tomorrow, thus leaving me with no motivation to grab field pass. Some guys will simply pay $ for whatever they need no matter what, and I understand that, but I'm not understanding the tight squeeze we have going on. Don't leave out the guys that drop a few bucks here and there just to drain the top guys a little more..

    It's so short sighted. They are burning their game's community down. Without it there's less competition for whales to compete with and in the long run the whales are going to spend less / leave the game. Baffling business decision imo

    I think they were only out for about 12 hours last Friday and before that it was like 5-6 before they last appeared.  So we are talking about 12 hours in nearly two weeks.  Pretty unfortunate

    Sorry guys, you can blame me for this.  Since it was the first time I was able to earn a 30% discount accolade for my solo club, for an available total of 50%...AND I finally pulled Jackie, followed by Joe Morgan...there was no way in hell they would allow me easy access to LXP this weekend.  Rest assured, the moment I can only get a 30% discount and I don’t have enough gold left to buy many boxes, the Mega LXP will become available for 48 straight hours.

    FWIW, this has been the pattern since the release of pxp mega boxes.  IF you are the type to buy xp mega boxes, you have to make hay while the sun shines.  When the boxes do make a rare appearance in the store or bundled in an extra-ordinarily good package in specials, you have to buy right then as much as you can or care to afford.  Simple as that.  Not like the xp goes anywhere or depreciates.  Just like cool down, this requires vision that goes beyond immediate needs.  Does it suck?  Start a thread but like any game, there are parameters and it’s up to the participants to sort out how best to address and work within the walls.  

    THAT IS THE GAME!

    FWIW, I intended my post mostly as comedy.  I forgot to put an “lol” at the end, so I forgive you...lol.

    Now for a serious question.  Does the weekend 30% discount accolade expire at the end of the event (9 PM PST) or does it go until the weekend boxes become unavailable (12 AM PST)?

    Discount ends at the end of the event. 
    If you're not having fun, you're losing.

    Is that the wire monkey vs cloth monkey experiment?

    For all the lost and wandering souls here, retirepujols volunteers to provide the soft and enveloping Harlowian comfort of a cloth diaper as constrasted to my wire-like tendencies.
