Holy Crap! That is good news for me.. If you read the bottom they admit they will only use double dia sales when they have too from now on so you better load up this weekend. I think the new prices are much more fair though, I appreciate that they did listen to our opinions on some of this stuff.. Now all i need is for them to put random extraction's in the item shop 24/7

I REALLY REALLY hope they input that into our side of the system ,too. Or wait is that a US website or a euro?

From the new price list from EU, it looks like starting Tuesday, puries will be only 19 diamonds as the normal price (singles tho).
If it holds true for here in North America as well, that will be quite a drop from the 50 they are currently.

100% dias + 50% off itemprice = 25% of original price in real money
50% item price default , no more offers (except happy hours which will probably feature the usual crap like pet stuff) + less dia offers = 50% of current price (=100% of then-normal default price)

yet everyone is happily jumping around .... :)

I'm with you on this one!

I intend making a very small diamond purchase & then waiting to see how things pan out.

So far it is business as usual from frogster with a confusing EU price list & confused time listed for the diamond sale in the newsletter.

When us EU folks get promo's that start at noon, your promo's start at noon too;
when us EU folks get promo's that start at 4pm, your promo's start at 4pm too.

The thing to notice is the time zone. Our promo's are currently on cest & yours are pst (I think).

Basically, the promo times listed are always set the same to server time.

In what way is 3pm-10pm BST confusing?

BST in itself is not confusing. I simply checked the time stated in the newsletter & saw it was between the start & finish time.

The confusing part is the fact that the time stated in the newsletter has nothing to do with reality for the US region. We are expected to guess they actually mean PST & not the BST time we were told.

Remind me of this when items connected to fusion stones decrease to 1/4th their current price.

Well you explain it to me cause my math says we are paying the same thing. This of course is assuming double diamonds will be a 4-6 time a year thing. So stop sounding like a liberal with no facts and support your argument with numbers.

Try rate of decrease...


Will it take longer for a noob to grind a "free offer" for a Purified Fusion Stone at the old price of 50, or the new price at 19? Thusly, they will be increasingly incentivised to do the "free offer" and still make frogster money. You dig?

No I don't dig you are comparing apples to oranges, I don't do surveys, I don't trust surveys, I pay with real cash, I'm talking cash purchases, doing surveys has always been 100% free diamonds, so you can't ever change the percentage of free, so you are running a red herring, funny the fanboys only come out when they think something is good.

Wait and see but it will all be the same in the end with a different spin is all.
