Auction House

no we've seen the results of that on sgw.de
plus 1 trade per day is pretty much like free trading, too easy to have multies abuse that system

Right, I wondered where I got that one from

no trading for people without SS, don't want multies either.

in all fairness this game already gives a damn sight more market turns than other games, sgw only gives 3 and here we getting 16! so all in all non ss players still get to trade a hell of alot more here than on other games, so why should something which ss players have to pay for be available to all players?
the auction house is simply a place to list trades which saves time trying to get deals off playerss through msn / pm system...
without ss you cannot trade (other than the market) so having a ss advantage (even a limited one) available to all players is simply a bad idea, as if all features were available to all players then why would we want to donate?

sgw gives 15 market trades fyi, here you have 16. so about giving heluva lot mt's...
I don't get how you're coming on that

15? i only get 3 mate..... although you can use multiples of 5, your still only getting 3 mt's...

meaning you have 15 trades, here you have 16

yeah sorry about that, my mistake, although technically....lol.... you just dont get charged for the extra multiples there.... but i see where your coming from....
previous two posts retracted.

Plus a 10 dollar ss package is very cheap and that should will anyone who wants to build themselves up to buy it. Only surely if they want to trade easier

and to be noted, cheap both in terms of real money or in ingame resources.
My guess would be anyone playing for 2-3 weeks actively should be able to afford it by then

i say non ss players can not offer period but can buy 1 per day

or perhaps put it at a high cost of market trades per purchase but no selling

well, de facto you really have only 3 trades in sgw.
Afterall you cannot make 15 trades, you can make only 3.

If you take multiplier 1, 3 or 5, you will always loose a market turn in sgw, so it has only 3 turns.


Action house should facilitate trades for people who have SS only.
Afterall people should be encouraged to donate.

The Auction House will do the same thing as trading with the broker, only that people will search/work/trade easyer for what they want. TBH, the AH is not fun and it will add some problems to the code!!!

But you do as you want.

care to elaborate on the problems?

ok will start work on this today/tomorrow, rough ideas for now:

3% of resources lost if trade doesn't get accepted by anyone
Accepted trades give the seller 12 hours to recover goods or they go into the open
You can do auction style, trade goes through after expiration of time, or direct trade
