Play PackRat on Facebook: our feverishly addictive new game

Generic Suggestion! Hooray!

Think the chefs will ever implement a system such as:
You are a normal member, 10 tokens a month.
You get one token every 3 days, as opposed to months. (30/10 = 3)
VIP member, 30 tokens/month
one token a day (30/30 = 1)

Im sure they've thought of it though, so why not, I ask them. (prepares for stern answer)
I see this as boosting icon buffet usage while not undermining the economy, because you still receive same amount of tokens, you can just purchase sets more often instead of all at once once a month.

I also like the idea of "rollover" tokens for active website users.

Well, the easy long and short of it answer to this is that the logic for daily token refills is significantly more complicated than our current system. In fact, we'd basically have to rebuild the entire site to make it work that way. So... uh, don't expect this anytime oh in the next year or two.

Oh. Okay .___.
I was wondering why.
Anyway, if you ever have, say... a dozen hours, this would be a sweet project for you :D

Also, it really mucks with the current token bonuses. Right now, you could be getting 1, 3, 7, or 19 bonus tokens a month. How do you spread that over a token-every-day-or-three system? It gets messy fast.

And we really like our bonus token system. :)

xD

Maybe a hybrid system?
Bonus tokens monthly, Normal on normal days?

I like the way its set up now. :) I get all my tokens at once and don't have to wait for them to fill up. Then I can spend them at my leisure. I think it works really well.
