The beginning point was good, probably. Users will be able to plant one cotton field, one oil well and one diamond mine in every 36 hours. This means that, they can plant at 13:00 in monday and 01:00 in wednesday. Then, at 13:00 in thursday and 01:00 in saturday. And so on...

But!... Since a day is 24 hours and planting those things cost time, this plan does not work. Everytime users plant those things, the time slips forward.

Which means, 13:00 in monday and 01:05 in wednesday. Then, at 13:10 in thursday and 01:15 in saturday. And so on...

This causes us to skip some days.

Solution: 35hr and 50min

Meaning: If users can plant their resources in less then 10min, they won't have any disadvantages.

I think, it is fair...

The whole point of the 36 hour thing is so that days *do* slip by.. ;)

We simply set a time! ;)

What you do to yourselves to get more mines as quick as possible is your problem, not ours. :p You should really consider entering a 12-step program :spin: :lol:

we're not insane, just trying to be efficient! i've already tried this thread but then with 35 hours :).

and i still agree, i dont like this! i want 100% efficiency! We Want to Be Borg!

maby make the timer just start again after 36 hours? so that when i place a mine after 48 hours there is just 24 on the timer left?

Brilliant idea !!!!

we still have to take care of resources, but please don't stress us to insanity!

Right, and also, if you really meant the 36 hours to take 48 we're indeed getting less recources then before.

Mickey has been saying the recources are thesame but slower to calm the stupid masses, but no more! Revolution! Evolution! The weak will enherit the world!

but seriously, how does this fit into the "wanting people to rely more on passive income then jewels" talk? especially with unexpected resets looming (im never building cotton fields no more).
