Title: Item (Rare) Of the Month
Post by: zxSM1FFYzx on May 27, 2012, 08:09:00 pm
This idea would be a Vote by the Opticraft Staff what item they would like to see in the market in that month.
So in one month lets say Slimeball Next months Pistons Heck even Sticky pistons.
But also insted of items not in market Items in market so 50 x 50 protection half price or power rail half price that sort of thing
So there is some thing new every month or even top voters get to pick what there is.

I thought this would make market more fun so like a new suprise every month, Hope this is considered Thanks for reading   ;D

Ohh Well The reason the Title is Item (Rare) is because it can be used for more then just sticky pistons it can also be used for items already in market just made half price or something

It could be cool to have a "sale" item pop up once in a while on certain materials, however since there is no economy sales really don't make sense other than helping players who don't know how to make money.  I mean, it's not like we're trying to "clear the shelves for new products" or anything.  It would just be extra work for Ops, and I really don't think it's necessary.

We've already discussed the Piston/Slimeball topic.  It's a dead horse that people keep trying to flog.  Those items won't be available on the market.  Seeing how many automated farms continue to get built on a daily basis, the argument of them being "rare" is mute.  You just have to put in an effort to acquire them.

Sticky piston were just example i thought it would just be some thing fresh just to keep the market alive just for a suprise every now and then.
Maybe run it as a Trial or ask the community if they think it is a good idea or not see if they would buy from it...

Probably you will get a surprise...
This idea is already suggested 2 times.
But know, you paced already item you want to have the first month.
COnsidering that the new update 1.3 comes out very soon, I believe that the "slime" problem will be solved, too.
So, be patient. Everyone is suffering the limited access to slimes.
But, the decreased supply of slimes, brings innovation since today I saw blaze auto farm without sticky pistons.

Anyway, these few words for the point you mentioned.

Epic.

I think this is a decent idea but I suppose it isn't that necessary and it's more effort for ops.
Slimes are a pain to get a hold of though.

Are you telling em that blaze rods are expensive or rare?
I sold 20 stacks, 10,000$ the last weekend. Actually, on Sunday afternoon GMT+2.
Blaze rods, cost 30$/each these days.

Ghost tear, is somethign really rare. I will probably make a trap for these.

500 is a good price I think. Just like slimeballs.

That's its price. But, I wouldnt sell it for less than 5,000.
The reason? I don't really need 500$. That's why I sell quantities in bulk.
