How much do you guys think should cost to play in the arcade? This goes for all games and later on another poll will go up for games that give you in game unlimited plays.

The current default is 0.25 gfp so each post you make, you can play up to 4 times and for each thread you make, you get to play up to 12 times, and for each vote you make in a poll, you can play 2 times.

Vote away.

I think 1.00 seems about right, then if they are just joining up for the arcade they'll probably make more posts. Either that or they will leave...

0.10 gfp per play means 10 plays per post, is that fair?

1.00 gfp per play means 1 play per post, is that fair?

lol thats why i chose 0.25 to start with, its right in the middle

@freebee, i know what you mean, i did that in the beginning but has been implemented to help the forum boost its activity :D

Yeah it's a forum not an arcade, we want you to post on here. I think that making it 1 would mean that people would need to post more and maybe they'd realize how good the forum is so they might decide to be an active member. But it could also chase people away...

I think .15 would be a good amount. Then dedicated members who also like the arcade won't have to waste as much GFP... but it's still higher than 10 so new members must post a little.

u know how cheap japanese cars would be if 4 million yen cost $0.01 USD ? I would literally own a dozen japanese cars

but here it looks 0.50 GFP is winning, I'll be implementing that to all games this weekend

So enjoy the games while they still cost 0.25 GFP per game play

and Yeah...you get 2 GFP per post these days, I have no idea why but I'll try to fix it - you just get an extra gfp for post and thread and poll and etc.

If it's possible a tiered system would work. Like .50 for games that have played under 750 times and then once a game gets over 750 plays it's raised to like 1 .

well if i do that i'll have to set that up manually but i like the idea - just means the popular games are just worth more :D

i'll look into that when im setting it all up

+rep given for idea

Please .25 or less, it's going to awfully hard to compete for top scores if the amount we can play is so limited, and besides people might spam just to raise their post count so they can play more. And then there is the issue of scaring people away, but if people are just here to play and not be a part of the forums then I guess they shouldn't be here anyway . . .

Well, it's in the rules not to spam.
So anyone who does gets and infraction.
And all the posts in the Spammers Corner don't count towards GFP or post count.

Post more then, really not hard. There's many topics here and many...many that haven't been brought up.

Edit: Besides you have 80, that's more than enough to sustain someone for a little bit and if you need more to sustain .... well you first part of my post.
