I looked and looked and found something that i think it worth getting this topic on

Happy Hours with different types of impulses

"Dear Players,

Today between 11:00-17:00 will be all speedups (shortenings of building, fleet and research times) reduced by 25%! "

"Dear Players,

"Today,xx:xx:2013, we will have a Happy Hour from 15:00 to 23:00 server time, with +20% Rubies for every purchase."


"Dear players,

Today, xx.xx.2013, we will organize next Happy Hour - booster. Between 16:00 to 00:00 server time the production of resource mines will be incresed with 20%".


"Dear Players,

Today there will be a Happy Hour from 16:00 to 22:00 servertime. There will be a 25% discount on research time."

Anyone can think of any other Happy Hour

Once a week a Happy Hours Event should take place .

If anyone supports my ideea feel free to comment or add something to improve this

hmm nope. this game is run 24/7 globally. your happy hours will only might benefit a certain group of players in a certain time zone. its a good strategy but its not global i am afraid.

i could see happy "days" / (weekends ?) perhaps could work if it basically was for speeded up buildling or fleet speeds
(as a monthly or quarterly event perhaps)

but wonder how the ruby reduction would cut into zorgs cash flow..., i suspect that they currently suffer from the end of year effect with the current "holiday" discount policy...

but it maybe worth an experiment...


yes it is a global game so even trying to find a "neutral" day may have problems ...

Make a day a month that anyone who wants to buy rubies gets 10-20% more

Also i think it can improve the rubie buy giving the 10-20%more rubies per buyment.

Any buyer wants to get a little extra for the same thing that he can purchase on an ordinary day.

It can be make like a BOOST
Any player gets one a month / week
BOOST ( 25-50% building speed , 25-50% Research Speed )
You can put it on sale for rubies - you make the prices
Any player can activate the boost whenever he is online. a 2-3-4-5-6 -12h boost
Use it or loose it.


@SPY - you say it`s global and would not be effective , lets get all to a conclusion and make it happen , any ideas are welcome .

+1 from me. I like the random, because it encourages players to be more active. Mix it up and over time everyone comes out equal.

Moved to suggestions

when you play in the casino it is a known fact that the casino always wins. that is the odds are always favoring the casino. so for the greater part of the community the odds will be heavily against you if it is a random chance of play you are playing.

but as i am a very insignificant oddity in the player pool i might get the king share off it. so yeah based on those logic this probably heavily favor me in the game play. yet i am seeing this as unfair to the rest of the community and saying no to it.

to catch the happy hour u might need to stay up until 4 am in the game play and staying up till then every day sure will result in alot of passing out and hence fleet crashes.

also i dont gamble. hence i dont try expedition either. so from me its a solid no.

happy hours is a no but how about happy week?
