    Agreed.

    The best way to enjoy the events, I would think, is to not spend any gold.

    Perhaps Funzio should consider a new format for future events. I mentioned in another thread that perhaps they could go with one where you are rewarded with prizes for achieving a pre defined goal.

    Something like logging in 10 times a day, robbing 100 people and winning 100 fights every day, for 10 days in a row.

I only have 40 bullets so I don't accumulate too many safes, I have 47 right now. People with 100 or more bullets and a lot of $ to buy gold will certainly get it.
    Really, you have a problem obtaining wall safes? It sounds like you are only considering using stamina to get safes, which is why you have so few. I feel I get more safes from using energy on missions. Between this event and the last diamond event, I have far more safes/lockboxes then I can open by the end. I have like 50 safes now and I had over 100 lockboxes leftover in the diamond sig event.

    this is something I suggested to them , to let people buy the item or emerald at extreme price at last day .

    Sorry people calling it gambling , you are wrong , neither does funzio , or the US credit cards support online gambling , so stop calling it that , it is your own perception of thing . Not and will ever be a official staunce , the moment somebody complain about that or they even dare to admit it .
    Is the moment they won't get paid .

    Since they do not have a casino license especially for minors playing this game .
    That this event brought out the same frustrations as gambling .

    People even daring to defend this event , sadly you are the one biting your own feet .
    Next event will be even greater reward at a greater reset price of 25 diamond.

    That is why I choose not to participate in the next event , no matter what the reward will be .
    That is the choice I make . So for those who got there emerald burner aka money burner!

    Congrats a good lesson , and no matter how much you paid , it is still cheap cause you learned .
    To appreciate sleep and forget about investing into the next event
    So people who can't get it , well too bad next event they are all yours .

    xira it is no use argueing with people unless they feel the same frustration this event brought.
    They will at the last day especially now the lock boxes are dropping less and less .

    Sorry Dravak, they are correct.

    They are by definition gambling GOLD.

    This is allowed because Gold is purchased with money, and money is not directly gambled.

    It is not illegal gambling, which I did not see mentioned by anyone. Maybe I missed that.

    Gambling involving anything with real life currency exchanged for other currency online .
    Isn't encouraged or allowed in US the rest of the world have different rules .
    but not the US , you can look that up in wiki about online gambling .

    So yes for our perception especially this event feeled like gambling , cause of the steep chance of luck compared to the last one , MW event was like SIG event , chances of opening chests was much higher so was the titaninium bar.

    But if people are opening more chests then the event has hours , without even approaching the chance of 9 bars or success , what is this event called ?

    Sorry you can call it gambling Erik , but they will never ever admit it , since there are people playing this game who are minors .

    No this is a event , that was heavily screwed in there favors , that they even dare to do that and give the gambling feeling to minors , they beter start thinking again what they are doing , especially if they are taken over by hasbro.

    a. To bet on an uncertain outcome, as of a contest.
    b. To play a game of chance for stakes.
    2. To take a risk in the hope of gaining an advantage or a benefit.

    I think you will find... gambling is exactly what it is.

    Its not illegal gambling as no money is exchanging hands. But, by definition, that is exactly what it is.

    And again wrong , cause getting gold involves real money or currency , so changing money for online tokens .
    Like most company online use isn't consider real life currency .
    read the wiki about online gambling , simple easy to read and understandable . Especially if you live in the US .

    try again cool , you are just argueing for argue sake , and that there are people playing this game who are underage .
    Makes it even worst , sorry Sig event follows the same event as MW see the difference in attitude.

    Anyway it doesn't matter what happens the event will end soon , and this time the amount of people having both the sig and emerald burner , will be small indeed .

    We are talking of gambling as a dictionary definition...

    Not gambling that society associate with the act of gambling in a casino or in a bookmakers.

    The word gamble means : to take a risk in the hope of gaining an advantage or a benefit.

    You can take a gamble in a game of basketball by going for a 3 point shot.
    You can gamble in a game of football by playing your best striker even if he is injured.

    If you do not understand the context in which we refer to this as a gamble... then you are not intelligent enough to continue with the conversation. No offence. You just aren't.
