Kyle 63 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Username: Kyle Suggestion: Ely is a growing community. A bigger playerbase of active people is never a bad thing, and incentive to play is paramount to achieving high player counts. I've been thinking over the past few days about what we could do as a server to encourage play Monday through Thursday, and not just give incentive to play on the weekends for the events. With that being said, here's my suggestion: weekday events! I've come up with a tentative list that includes several things that could be a part of our Ely gameplay Monday through Thursday. I came up with more than 4, and I think if it gets enough support, we could vote on which ones get added to the game. We could even have 2 events per day if you guys think it would increase player activity! Below is the list. Please comment which ones you DO and DON'T want to see added to the game. Also, make sure to leave feedback and constructive criticism if you deem it necessary. Thanks for reading! Note: These aren't in any particular order, I'm just doing it this way for aesthetics. Monday: Double charms drops! All monsters will yield 2x their normal charms drops in all applicable situations. Monday (2): Double skilling points day! Today you will earn 2x the normal amount of skilling points. Great for easy game mode! Tuesday: Double slayer points! If ,you're a casual or everyday slayer, this is the event for you! Grind out those points before the day ends! Tuesday (2): Donor trial day! Every Tuesday all non-donors will have access to the donator zone to give it a try and see if they would like to donate! Wednesday: All drops are noted today! This is advantageous for players who slay, boss, or just in general kill monsters that have annoying non-noted drops! Wednesday (2): Today you will see increased spawn rates for the Wildywyrm, Shooting Star, and Evil tree public events! Get grinding. Thursday: Increased pet chance day! Get out there and get yourself that skilling/boss pet you've always wanted today! Thursday (2): Fuck my life couldn't think of another one that people would like so this is just a placeholder. SUPPORT THIS FUCKIN THREAD! Why: Why the fook not? Everyone would benefit and it would make weekdays suck less ass!! Credits to Merlin for the public event suggestion: Please support! Love, Kyle (Kaotic and Masoud's dad) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splash 203 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 12 minutes ago, Kyle said: Monday: Would like to see this. Monday (2): Sure why not. Tuesday: This would be neat to add. Tuesday (2): Just no, Creates so many problems and also takes away from actual donators who support us. Wednesday: Sounds good. Wednesday (2): Would like to see this on the weekends too tbh. Thursday: Probably a no from me for this one, Pets are meant to be the prestigous items that are hard to collect. That + patron bonus would be pretty overpowered. Overall support in general, Just don't agree with some events. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masoud 92 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 As Splash said, there are some good ideas in there, but I don't agree with all of them. Some Ideas have great potential IMO such us double slayer points and noted drops and double spawn rate for wyrm etc... But some such as pet drop rate increase and free donator zone access for one day is a bit inane. Overall, Great suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshaffer90 16 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I like the noted drops and ww spawn rate and the slayer points maybe 3 event days a week or even peek hour mini event zones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum 134 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I love the idea of weekday events! As someone who spends most of their weekends working due to my industry, I miss out on pretty much every event nowadays. But as it's been noted above, some of them are quite unrealistic. Also instead of completely doubling everything for an event, maybe a 50% increase would be more beneficial to keep things stable (If you originally get 40 Charms from a drop you'd get 60 to not make the event overpowered). One thing I'd suggest for mid-week events would be more for minigames, but specific days for specific events (could even be a week long process that alternates minigame daily). This would bring around a revitalisation of the minigame scene in Ely and push people towards grinding these out (potential linkage into Completionist (t) requirements down the line for die-hard players). Overall, I like the concept. I'd just rework the daily events slightly so that they're not overpowered or making the game easier than it already is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boats 254 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Pls don't roast, but dont you think noted drops are kinda OP for some places? Maybe like Callum said and have it be a chance for noted drop. Can even be a high chance, but still makes you bank occasionally. Also yea, just like Callum said, 50% increase or stuff is better than 2x imo. I think it good idea though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Developer Luke 134 Posted September 7, 2019 Developer Share Posted September 7, 2019 I like the ideas but perhaps a 25-50% increase instead of outright doubling everything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
