So Ive been debating the whole day of halloween about what may be done for those of us who zapped the whole time but didnt get the single most wanted skin on our list.
Of course many have suggested wiz tokens up to like 5k, but after spending almost that much this event and getting a ton of doubles that seems meh.
My thought was what if for the week after moros, those who wanted to had a single chance to pick ONE skin. You would have to trade 5 skins you dont want, but would get to pick the one you do.
It would make it a give and take, but also possible for people who tried so hard to get one (like me trying for deer) but failed even after throwing mass amounts of tokens at the zapper.
I dont love the thought most had of wanting more than one to purchase. As it sort of kills the reason of even trying to zap with random luck. So this would remedy that issue, making it more fair, but also sticking to making a real decision of which you want. It would also only happen the week after moros, so it wouldnt be year round. The way to trade the skins would expire this next saturday, so if you arent fast to do it, you have to wait until next year.
It also helps clear out skins people will never use. I for one got at least 5, if not more that I hate even seeing there.
So what do you guys and think? It wouldnt cost more tokens, would keep it moros related, would be fair and only those who at least zapped and got 5 skins could have the chance to get their dream skin. Leaving it also available for those like myself and many who are now uber wiz token broke xD
Pinging a few friends I know may have missed out on a specific skin as well: @ amicorn @ khaiya @ lantern @ mintflavouredexorcist @ murph
Also a few I saw in the news post with the aame prob @ dryad @ poet @ rumi @ horizon @ starshadow @ twistedmiss
I would love that. There were 2 skins that I really wanted but kept getting copies of ones I didn't want. Great idea. :)

I'm probably biased but I do like this suggestion. I had one skin I wanted the whole time and never got.
That sounds like a great idea. 5 for 1 is a decent enough trade-off, I think.
I support this idea as well. Honestly, considering how many duplicates I got over the past two(-ish?) weeks, it'd only be a matter of time before I got back those I'd traded for the skins I really wanted. :P
I sure hope at least something happens, even if it isnt this xD I know many people who seemed to get every skin but the one they wanted! Of course the two I got over and over were my least fav, I didnt mind so much when it was something pretty, it just felt like such a smack to the face seeing that leopard staring back at me >3> (Its out to get me I swear)
I do want the cloud as well, but can wait for that ;D I was just so excited to play with deer when moros arrived.
I would really like something like this. I really wanted the opal and nebula skins but didn't get them. I'd prefer to be able to buy them in sP or wizard tokens, however, as I want to eventually collect all the zapper skins and then probably never wear them.
Sure - as long as it's a one-time only thing after Moro. Trading in 5 skins would work, so could it costing a large amount of sP or tokens. We'll see what the staff thinks.
Thanks, !
This is a great idea - allows users to get rid of the skins they don't care for and choose one they'd like. Support!
The problem I see with that is then it makes zapping for a holiday pretty much useless. This specific fix is just for those wanting a skin, only one. We of course have the chance next moros to zap and get the rest, but waiting another year after trying hard to get a specific skin sucks. While collecting all can wait.
It is also going to make it then so people who dont have as much currency but did try to zap could get a desired type. While keeping it holiday related/lasting only a week or so after moros/not buying them all up.
I hope that made sense haha! I just think having a buy with currency option sort of ruins the fun of it even needing to be chance/holiday specific. (Especially because I know some people who just want them all would not bother trying zapping and just buy them up with sp/tokens after the event, and that is just no fun.)
that is me right there, well said
or maybe make it so that doubles are not allowed once the skin is gotten. Spent alot of time with skins i had already got, a couple of them more than twice i got. made me sad kinda not to mention a waste of my wizzy tokens i have been collecting almost every day.
Well as I said above as much as a currency to buy has been asked for I dont see it likely to happen as it would pretty much kill the idea of zapping all together.
I totally feel you on that doubles bit, maybe a limit to like 3 of each skin or something xD I dont mind a double here and there, but I had days where I got the same skin every other zap. Or at least no doubles on the final day/decreased chance. Maybe even Having two different zaps you can attempt for skins. Similar to how there is the reg per zapper and the experiment one. Having the normal, plus one more costly that gives no doubles? Even if the special no doubles were added for just a day I would have been cool with that. Itd still be hard/chance but much more likely to grab something you dont own already :)
But for this getting a single skin idea Im not sure sp/tokens are the correct solution. (Plus the chance to get rid of skins I dont care for is kind of a neat bonus xD)
I think that if this is done, trading in other skins sounds like a good idea. I definitely have 5 or more that I'd like to trade for the Nebula skin. I don't think tokens are as fair because then people who didn't zap at all could buy one. Thankfully I did get the two I wanted most (Experiment and the cloud one), but I feel really bad for the people who zapped all Morostide and didn't get their most wanted :-/
I'd love this idea! 5 skins I'd never use for 1 skin I definitely would use. Don't get me wrong, I like the Giger one but I was really hoping for Blu.

I'd love this trade-off. I wanted bird skin and kept getting duplicates.. a ton. u___u
I luckily got all the skins I wanted (what really surprised me) but nevertheless I wouldn't say no to such an option. A couple of friends had such a crap luck so it would be nice for them to be able to trade some unwanted skins in for a wanted one.
I got my favorite skin early on (and actually saw it come up once more after that!) but I could see this being nice for those that didn't have that kind of luck. I don't see the harm in trading 5:1 one time for a specific skin you wanted
Perhaps the Zapper Version 2 Liability Waiver can have some kind of use after Morostide?
There are two skins I was zapping for and never got (Opal and Woad Marking). But I got magma at least once a day. Some option to get at least one of these would be great. Though, as a skin lover, it will be hard for me to part with 5 skins... even if I would never use some of them. XD I just like having them there. lol
