    That's too bad. You were the first name I added to my list of "players worth interacting with" in awhile. I really appreciated our Apple trades. Hope to see you again soon.

    @BaronBattleBread The first floor of the casino was supposed to be fun- we didnt expect people to sit there and jump 500 times on a pressure plate that was obviously not giving them what they expected. But its also not meant to be packed constantly.

    First- the roulette have been editited to a happy medium(if not done by now, then after i post this message) where you simply have to accept that you get lucky or you dont. thats why its a gamble.
    The roulette was never meant to give you stacks upon stacks of craftycoins, it was put in as a way for people with a few coins to take a chance on getting a few more before they were done- but people abused it,
    they did so while telling others to keep it secret and that more than anything, pissed me off.

    The games aren't numbered, marked or contain any other indication of what their prizes are because we change them- any admin can walk in and edit them at any time- because its a gamble. Its for fun. Its not meant to make your game easy.

    CraftyCoins arent meant to be cheap- The prices were decided on by studying the community, and seeing what people accepted as payment for CC. You don't walk into a casino and expect to buy 1,000 chips for 10$, so i dont know why people seem to think that we're gonna price craftycoins like dirt and sand.

    As it stands, i cannot create a fair Jackpot system. i have been working on its devlopment for a long time now and it always come out the same- someone gets an advantage and i wont do that on purpose.
    But i will continue to work on it, with help from the staff.

    There are more floors to come- and they will be released as they are finished. there will be more ways to win coins, OP prizes and other as yet undiscoverd things.

    So relax, take stock of yourself, and wonder why you didnt realise that after 100 coins or so the game wasnt the one you were looking for.

    Remember people, Greed is never satisfied.
    We do not do these things to satisfy the greedy, but to entertain.
    Enjoy the casino as it comes, but to blame others for your opinion on what is wrong or right is neither fair nor becoming.

    I think it helps you said this for us to better understand the intent behind the casino: a stop rather than a desired destination.

    That being said, I don't think anyone is trying to be unappreciative or greedy when they provide input. I can understand the urge to emphasize the time and effort spent in creating the casino to see this kind of reaction from the players, but I think I speak for most of everyone when I say we love the casino and want to see it succeed/be balanced.

    By being balanced that's really a definition you ultimately define and only we can give our two-cents on, and I think/hope everyone here understands that. If this is a response to just say back off and let the casino do its thing for awhile, I can respect that too.

    PS - I love the casino. Thanks!

    I think the Casino is pretty awesome, thanks for putting it together for us!

    Was also wondering, what do you guys think about adding some kind of jackpot feature, that could even announce over the server (assuming the jackpot chance is very low).

    Sorry didn't realize some didn't know what lore is. Grabbed this pic off a random website.

    Valgys started the conversation Adding lore to objects.

    As I was renaming my first diamond sword the other day to the Shifty's Backstabbr Mk II (I combined two backstabbrs so wanted to keep the name), the lore that persisted after the repair caught my attention. And then it got me to thinking of all the items that have ever been generated by the Admins with lore that I've stashed away, as they were unique and thus had more value to me. So that had me think, if it's of value, maybe it'd be a nice feature to use by players.

    So my question is this: is it possible of having a service for players to customize items by an admin provided they give said item, a book indicating the requested lore, and some kind of payment (ex: be VIP+ and have 10 votes, 5 diamond blocks, or 15 emerald blocks, etc)? And in return the player gets the item with the lore? It doesn't change gameplay one bit so there's no concerns of imbalances if it were introduced. And the admin can set rules on when/how they'd do requests or what would be put in lore.

    Not sure if there's a real demand for something like this, or if admin's want to take on an extra job, or if this is considered "not vanilla" so would like to hear thoughts on it.

    That sounds like quite the nightmare. But since we're all here, you must've gotten it fixed or restored! /cheer

    What was the PPA you used when you tried the update? Ondrej?

    Okay it's been awhile I'll post one:

    "I have no legs, yet I go on and on"
    "I keep no clothes, yet I wear a tunic"
    "I have no friends, yet you would cry if you saw me harmed"

    What am I?
