Mystery Box Daily Ping V2
Replies
Thanks for the ping.
Out of town today, so won't have time. Bummin... Would like to stock up for the next crafting binge.
4th April: Philosopher's Store
<p>Sells: supplies for Alchemy (Zombie crafting: see [topic not found]).</p>
<p>Size: small (44 items): it will take a short time to find the item/s you are looking for</p>
<p>Best: there is one item which sells for more than 100k:
[item2=alchemy token: wearable]
Rarity: R60
Shop price: 452 sP
Usershops: 365,000</p>
<p>Red Herring: [item=Layer Card: Lowerback]</p>
<p>My strategy: Buy Everything.</p>
<p>
- All of the items are really cheap, so you won&;t be spending terribly much.
- If you&;re into Alchemy, then it&;s good to have a stock of supplies in your Vault.
- If you&;re not, then you can still sell them for a (small) profit, or Fragmentize them.
(Note: R1-R65 items give one or two each, and R66-R85 items give two or three each, so it&;s still worth it.) - Nice items: [item=layer card: back] [item=Alchemy Token: Plushie] [item=Alchemy Token: Book]

A question for people...
I was contemplating making Ping Groups for the Box (or just making a list of people who want to be pinged) when it is a particular shop or shops. (To me, the Daily Ping feels like a "remember to check this", whereas a "Today is Spells Galore" ping would feel like "OMG DO THIS".Options I thought of:
- People sign up to say which shop/s they'd like to be pinged for
- We make a ping group for each separate shop (eg Spells Galore could be , Philosopher's Store ) and people join the groups for the shops they want to be notified about
- We classify the shops as Good and Nope, and ping for those (this would be subjective: I think Spells Galore is awesome, but maybe someone else wants the Beanbags, etc)

Does anyone have ideas or comments on this? Is anyone keen?
We as a group can divvy up the shops into categories in the next few days. I'm not sure everywhere the MB can even restock from.
No not a pest at all. <3 Glad you are not discouraged.
, thank you for the ping!
i like the idea, but i agree with -- a separate ping for some "priority" shops might see more use/interest than 30+ misc pings o:
it should be any "restocking" style shop -- so any main shop plus the freyalise and migrating masks?
(also i woke up to all my pings being gone?? hrm. hi hello pls do mystery box today)
two or three extra ping groups would certainly be easier for me and ! I was thinking it could be organized like Shop 1: people A, B Shop 2: people A, C Shop 3: person D Shop 4: people A, B, D but just classifying the shops as Buy All / Buy Some / Don't Bother would be easier and require less upkeep for sure.
So, let's take a quick look at what shops we've got ... Only Philosopher's Store and Spells Galore will be Buy All. Most will be Buy Some. A few will be Don't Bother.
Off the top of my head, I'd classify them as:
Accessory Bin - SOME All That Glitters - NOT Apocalyptic Apothecary - SOME Atebus Shop - ? Beach Shack - ? Bean Me Up - SOME Bits And Bytes - NOT Book Nook - SOME Candy Shack - SOME Carnival Stand - ? Cavern Of Curios - SOME Clothing Rack - SOME Defend And Conquer - SOME Food Market - SOME Freyalise Trading Co - Keelhauliday - September - ALL Get Mugged! - SOME Grooming Parlor - SOME Half Baked - SOME Home Appliances - SOME Icy Goods - SOME Migrating Masks - Masquerade - March - SOME Minions Market - SOME Music Shop - SOME Philosopher's Store - ALL Plushie Parlor - SOME Quick Bites - SOME Rathskeller Inn - SOME Seedlings - SOME Sole Train - SOME Spells Galore - SOME Stick It To The Man! - SOME The Bake Stop - SOME The Lost Skeleton - ? The Sable Smithy - SOME Thimble & Co. - SOME Toy Box - NOT Trading Card Center - NOT Weapons Warehouse - SOME

Reasons why I love it when Philosopher's Store is the Mystery Box of the day:
1,000,134 gets you these 927 items:
which for the [item=alchemy Token: Wearable]s alone is worth 7,455,000. And that is when they are really lowly priced: someone said recently that they sometimes go to ... was it 800k? a million? Yeah, I'm onto a good thing here! :D

thank you for the ping! gotta remember to try for some foods.
ok so i've been thinking about this off and on and i'm still not 100% sure about this...? and i really don't mean that in a rude way, more of a "i don't know how to explain my thoughts" way ;>>
like, it sounds like a good idea but you've highlighted like two thirds of the shops, so i'm not entirely sure it's any better than having people check the daily ping, you know? and re/ some vs none -- i could say atebus shop: buy some -- space backgrounds and and beach shop: buy none, but there's... eh, and (huh. should do a fwsg post for that, i remember it being way more expensive)
but that's... subjective? like, where are you drawing the line? does a "none" store become "some" once it has new releases? etc
(also... what are you looking for in defend and conquer??)
Thanks for the ping.
In all honesty, I hope this ping group stays as is. New items are added all the time, so our preferences for particular shops will always be changing and it seems that "SOME" is the overwhelming majority of shops anyway. That said, I really do appreciate the work that and put into this and will go along with their decisions.

After seeing the initial list, yeah, I'm changing my stance in favor of just keeping the ping group the same. When the bulk of the shops are "buy some", it really doesn't serve a huge amount of purpose.
Perhaps, if Mistress_Murder was game, if there's a shop that comes up that she knows is a "buy all", she could rename the name of the board to "BUY Mystery Box Daily Ping v2" and the ping. Then everyone in the ping group gets that BUY name on their sidebar. (And then change the name back)
