It's awkward that Saggi, the elite character, now only asks for junk.
So I've done 15 Saggitarius quests for today. My reaction is pretty much... meh. Not because of the profit! I got about 600k out of him, which is ordinary, and frankly, enough.
But like, no super rares, barely any rares asked for, I just did the quests like a machine and quit none. No excitemet, no trying to calculate rewards, no risk. I either broke even or got like -10k at worst. Frankly, BORING.
Still idk how SR's are supposed to stay, well, SR now.
I don't understand the concept behind making him 10mil+ and increasing his payout - so that users who have 10mil+ can just continue to add tons to their accounts? no thanks.

I think it's to make it more like real life, rich get richer kind of concept.
I also am feeling meh now that he's not asking for rarer things. He's kinda just like every other quest now.
He's lost his snob and I never thought I'd miss it as much as I do.
in real life, democrats? on the site, probably poorer people? or anyone who likes to spend their money?
I think changing it to 10m+ encourages sP hoarding so everyone just builds up a 10 mil buffer that they don't touch, which I don't think is necessarily a good idea.
and yeah, I think he should go back to asking for SR things, it seems like the changes to vending to inflate these items won't have any effect since there is no sink for the items aside from the person who needs a certain item for their collection.
I know D: I'm really bad at trying to convey that I realize that but I still wanna reply to it seriously. I'm sure a lot of my posts come across too harsh or something >_>
Ah, okay. I think it's just the whole "Internet lacks tone" thing, unless you type it out in front of your sentences like those Mass Effect aliens.
I'm also bad irl at conveying when I'm sarcastic. my people skills are pretty lacking, I blame the asperger's really. I think whenever someone is being sarcastic, it should show up in a different font.
on topic though other than the SR items being asked for, the rewards are probably fine since library quests and cinthia quests I think got higher payouts?
Oh, hey, I've got Asperger's too. Fun times.
Did Cinthia get higher payouts? I noticed a couple of other quests seemed to be giving out more but I'm still getting jack-all from her.
very fun, social skills aren't very necessary anyway
I assume this means gollum and library since those were the bad ones before? at least their weekend quest will be better.
Relying on body language is for the weak.
Interesting. I really need to pay more attention to the Announcements forum so I can find this stuff out when it happens.
are you a member of siteupdate and actually get the pings? if not, I'd suggest doing so and at least reading the OP. sometimes other staff posts in there are handy too.
I don't understand why someone who prides himself on being elitist satisfy himself with people who have 750K and more. 750K being about 7% of what the AVERAGE user has.
This needs to be adjusted to account inflation.
It's kind of ironic now the Library gives more expensive quests with the 200k rare books, aside from the occasional super rare 1m foods that Carl asks. (And those are never worth it)
Or are the items Saggi asks temporary until a better solution could be found?
I don't mind being able to actually do /all/ of his quests, but I also agree that I don't understand why he is still "exclusive" if his quests are now on par with everyone else.
If he's going to be asking for underpriced junk, then he should be open to everyone. Then you can open Sarah up to everyone to (because, let's face it, she gives shitty sP compared to everyone else besides Gollum anyway).
To be honest, if he asked for a super rare over 90k, I wasn't buying it anyway. I usually only did quests for deflated super rares. This isn't any skin off my back :3
Also let's all be happy he's not asking for three elixirs out of every four-item quest.
