Resource rate changes

[Mickey]

In addition to changing the way jewels are collected (http://www.googleearthhacks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1464), we've changed the rates given for most resources.

Jewels now pay 2.25 Geos each, instead of 0.45, to compensate for the increased difficulty in obtaining them.

Oil and cotton prices are still on a sliding scale, but every number in the scale has been doubled, effectively giving you twice as many Geos for your oil/cotton.

Also, you can now only purchase one oil well and one cotton field every 24 hours. They're in tight supply now, so it would be somewhat hard to do more than that, but that will help keep things a little more fair for the newcomers.

The idea with the code is that it cannot easily be done automaticly with scripts, however some people have allready succesfully used OCR software to circumvent this. A more distorted code would propably help, similar to what some online forums use to verify a registration.

what about a very very distorted code with only one number. and below are 10 buttons with numbers 0-9
