The Domino Effect: Price wise

The Domino Effect: Price-wise

Believe it on not there’s yet another phenomenon that could lead to the inevitable economic down-fall of Endless-Online. It’s called The Domino Effect. I’ve collected some data and made quite a few inferences of how it will/would happen. I’ve even included an example. Below is the result of the data I collected.

What is the Domino Effect?:

Similar to how when a domino falls on another, each domino affects another. If it wasn’t for the “pushing-motion” caused by the domino behind any other domino; no domino would be able to fall.

How is this related to Eo prices?:

Think of it like this, if the cost of ingredients to make an expensive product go down, then obviously the expensive product’s price will go down as well. If the casual class isn’t controlling the price of smaller items, which make up larger items then who is? Whoever is controlling these items clearly control larger items and if there are more expensive-ingredient-based items like oron, than originally-expensive-items like saw swords then the people in control of the ingredient-based-items control the economy. If a more responsible class like “Eo-democrats” were to take over the ingredient-based-items then I’m sure the economy wouldn’t fall (or would be delayed). We have three choices. 1, take action, 2, let the “Eo-republicans” remain in control, or 3 stop playing Endless-Online.

Whichever choice you decide to make will definitely affect you in the long run, for better or for worse. I’ll add a poll asking what you think of the Domino Effect.

Note: I added a new Kara-Komic to the bottom of the site, check it out!

For those confused…

Clear example:

Items that are ingredient-based like oron and frost/fire arrows’ prices are controlled by the cost of the ingredients to make them. If ice cubes cost 3k and it takes 42 ice cubes to make frost arrows then the price of frost arrows will range from 125k-130k.

Items that are originally-expensive like saw swords, and draco/dracota don’t need ingredients to make them. The price of these items are based on rarity, and how many there are in Eo. The price eventually decreases over time, or from outside forces (massive junking).

If there are more ingredient-based-items instead of originally-expensive-items, then there is still a chance to save the economy. If a more responsible class emerges and takes control of the ingredient-based-items then they would control originally-expensive-items and the casual class would be helpless. There’s still hope. See you next time.

Rexor < Paperclip --- Rumor

Rumor has it that the newest employee to the Endless-Online Administrator list has been hacked.

Background on Paperclip:

One of the worst (meant as a compliment) hackers on this god-forsaken game. A “legend” in brute-forcing; he’s said to have the ability to hack any account on Endless-Online. I even heard that he doesn’t even need your account username to steal (brute-force) your account. To sum it up in two words, “Beware Paperclip.”

Strange, how an Administrator would allow their account (in a game they designed) to be hacked. This is one of the reasons this rumor is still unverified. I’ll have to admit; even I thought they were “hack-proof.”

Why they have reason to think Rexor was hacked:

I don’t blame the Eo citizens for thinking he was hacked, here’s the proof.

Administrator behavior, or Paperclip in disguise? You decide. As far as I know, “up is down in this twisted virtual hell.” --- Karagu Will these rumors ever cease? I’ll add a poll on your view of whether or not Rexor was hacked by Paperclip. “If this rumor is true, paperclip might as well stay as Rexor, because he’s doing a hell of a job.” --- Lstonestanding.

Note: I added a new Kara-Komic to the bottom of this site! Enjoy!

Edit: (For those who were confused by this post.)

Why they have reason to think Rexor was hacked:

This guy was either hacked, or is really, really, really, immature.

Why is he advising we visit Eo Radio? Administrators couldn’t care less.

WHERE ARE ALL THE MONSTERS?! AHHH!

Server Lag?

Today, we all just experienced server lag. Global was full of idiots screaming, “IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD!” It isn’t the end of the Eo world. Something similar to d/cing while walking around Eo just occurred, that’s all. The server lags all the time, this time, it was just worse.

Possibilities:

- Due to the ill-managed server lag occurred. (best reason why)

- Admins are trying to add something to the server. (doubt)

- Day light savings?

- Hacked?

These are the only possibilities that have the slightest reason of being why. I’m leaning towards the ill-managed server reason.

Definitions:

Roll back: Similar to going back in time on a server, in attempts to “rolling-back” to a time where the server can actually be fixed.

Server Lag: Complication in the online server that we all play on. It’s designed to hold people and monsters, when lag happens you can experience delays.

In the end it all boils down to this question, is there a logical explanation? Or has the server run it’s life-span. We’ll all find out in the morning.

SORRY FOR THE VAGUE SLOPPY POST. HAD TO TYPE FAST, PEOPLE WERE GOING INSANE.

(Will edit what the actual problem was.)

Edit: The problem was, indeed, Server Lag.

Economic Roller Coaster

Economic Roller Coaster:

Two weeks ago the prices were sky high. Thanks to the stat whore class rebelling against the casual class's onslaught of price inflation, they managed to bring down necessary stat whore items. For example: The Scav Bow went BACK down to 1.3 mill because the stat whore class refused to buy for any higher. Congrats Stat whores, you win this round.

Baru – 250k-300k

Lens – 130k-150k

Baruta – 100k-200k

X bow – 40k-60k

Bow – 20k-30k

Draco – 80k-110k

Dracota – 50k-70k

Saw Sword – 220k-260k

Frost Arrows – 350k-380k

Fire Arrows – 550k-600k

Twin Blades – 55k-60k

New Hero Plate – 30k-40k

Female Hero Plate – 20k-25k

Oron/Orona – 220k-250k

Pwep – 400k-500k

Female DE – 100k-150k

Male DE – 30k-55k

Knob Staff – 400k-500k

Fladdy – 100k-150k

Hope my prices are accurate enough for you. I look at global, and I’m in the bank a lot so just in case you were wondering this is how I know. I’ll add a poll asking how accurate you think my prices are so vote!

Attempted Inflated Item of the week:

- Rapier

- Baru

- Scav Bow

The Ends Justify the Means

First off, I’d like to say, HAPPY HALLOWEEN! I’ve been extremely busy lately, but I managed to gather some interesting info. I super-speeded for a week to see what’d happen. I super-speeded at every single boss, and here’s the result of the data I gathered.

There were at the most, 20 people, at each boss.

-An average of 4 out of every 20 people asked me to teach them. 20%

-An average of 10 out of every 20 people ignored me (probably because they were already used to it). 50%

-An average of 6 out of every 20 people called me a newb. 30%

This information clearly states 50% of Endless-Online’s citizens, “Don’t give a !@#$” --- quote by “speedblader,” about Eo. Is it true that 50% of Eo witness speeders well enough to just give up the fight against them? Have most of you lost faith in Vult-r, or even Endless-Online itself?

The Ends Justify the Means

Speeder: -Kills someone in Pk using super-speed-

Non-speeder: Newb, quit speeding.

Speeder: Stfu nub, The Ends Justify the Means.

Do most of you understand what The Ends Justify the Means actually means now? This is an extremely valid quote that can be used to justify Social Life and Economic Life on Endless-Online. It means that even though you may have preferred to do something differently, in this case killing someone in Pk unfairly using super-speed, you think you had to do it because there was a specific end result that you wanted to achieve. The end result that the speeder wanted to achieve was to apparently kill someone in Pk. This is why we have so many “trouble-makers” on Endless-Online. They all convince themselves to think that it’s ok to super-speed/cheat. If the speeder in the example would have gotten jailed, then The Ends Did Not Justify the Means, for the speeder in this case; unless he wanted to get jailed.

Got it now? There’s a much deeper meaning to cheating on Endless-Online than we thought. Hope you enjoyed.

Volume I --- Your Future Is… Economic Failure?! ~ Endless Empire of Economic Eradication

Volume I --- Your Future Is… Economic Failure?! ~ Endless Empire of Economic Eradication:

Being an economically challenged newb was hard enough; I didn’t really need other players’ criticism. I think I got the picture the first time I was called a “newb,” but apparently society wasn’t satisfied.

The story of the fallen empire known as, Endless-Online, starts in late v26. All prices were normal compared to what they are now. I don’t know if it’s because we’re afraid of change, or if it’s because we just can’t adjust to it, but it really didn’t matter to me. I killed goats, sheep, and occasionally orcs in peace. More people cherished 50g back then than hardly anyone in present day Endless. This foreshadowed crisis.

The Golden Age (Versions 20-26) was soon to come to a screeching halt, as do all successful empires. 99% of the population of Endless-Online were “evicted” the day versions 27 and 28 came out. They were all ignorant and only thought of the “here-and-now,” which was their first and foremost mistake. I personally think the casual class planned they’re take-over just as elaborately as it came.

The bigger Endless-Online got, the dumber we became. As we killed orcs, twin demons, and other monsters (an example), the casual class were the ones that bought the ingredients from us, and were smart enough to use our ingredients to craft a more expensive product and sell it back to us. The brain of Endless-Online is still developing at this moment and no one is sure what’s going to happen next, thus foreshadowing the rise of Endless-Online republicans (casual class). Is our future an Economic Failure?! What major event will eventually push us over the edge?

Volume II --- Thrive In v27 ~ Endless Empire of Economic Eradication

Volume II --- Thrive In v27 ~ Endless Empire of Economic Eradication:

The unexpected was soon to come, yet the citizens of Endless-Online were as ignorant as ever. All they could do was Thrive in v27.

Working as brainlessly as ever, even I was under their control. I wasn’t apart of the casual class at the moment, so I wasn’t in on their “plan.” It seems to me that a more rebellious group of conspirators, whom happened to be apart of the casual class, didn’t want to go along with they’re “Casual Scheme.” Instead, they ever so “generously” (according to them) Eradicate Endless-Online’s Economy.

What was the name of these rebels you ask? How did they Eradicate Endless-Online’s Economy, and manage to end the Golden Age? Well, I like to call them DUPERS, and they ever so “generously” (once again – according to them…) ruined our Economy by dropping extremely large amounts of gold. They did this in hopes of gaining renown and to show everyone they were cheaters and that they could duplicate gold. The more gold there is; the more sellers (casual class) will sell things for, because they realize, “Why sell things for low when I know they have more money?” This is similar to merchanting, but on a much larger scale. The only way to return Endless-Online’s Economy to normal is to junk just under 15 million gold, but no one on this game cares enough to do such a thing. The only alternative way to fix Endless-Online is to roll-back the server to v27, fix the duplicating glitch, and add a better jail (while still in v27). Unfortunately, even the Administrators are unable to do that. It’s up to the citizens to fix this fallen empire. Even today, we await the rise of the Endless-Online democrats. We can no longer thrive in v27.
