New Event System
Forum-Index → Suggestions → Implemented → New Event SystemSpend your time on different activities on PH or interact with berries. (Which is still 1 = 1 AP)
Apart from that, before the Clicklists and the new Event Distribution were invented, there was also goal of ~3000 up to 5000 Interactions per week. And an interaction took way more time.
Many people are showing off that they can do 100 interactions in one minute.
But since it's obviously about the fun of the users, I decreased the required APs for this event to 3,500 (so 2,000 less interactions).
The system was just quite unbalanced with the new clicklists. 500 Interactions were way more easier to make then spending time on the other categories. That's why the ratio for the interactions had to be changed.
Though I agree that the requirement for one week might have been a bit too high.
I can't set the requirement to a very very low number only because it's 10-times slower to interact on an iPad.
@magnetoise: Fast internet doesn't actually matter. Even with a slow internet you can click very very fast, since the clicklists are very data volume optimized. (Except when you're sitting in a train with very low internet connection. But that again is not the normal situation of a player)
And the number glitch has nothing to do with that. It's just a displaying error, but it doesn't count as multiple interactions when you click the button too fast.
But in fact many many people were complaining about the "low interaction limit" that could be reached within 5 minutes.
But increasing this limit and keeping the 1 Int. = 1 AP ration would be even more unbalancing. No one would be spending time on the other categories anymore since the effort wouldn't be worth it.
And not that the limit has been increased (with an approach to keep it rather balanced), there are complainments again :b
Guess it should be time for a public vote. And we''ll set whatever the majority prefers.
(And no, I won't implement a "Switch"-button. We'll have to agree on one solution)
I quite like it, although it does mean I have to interact more, but 1500 interactions an hour isn't so bad for me. It only takes me 15-20 minutes.
At least we can actually obtain the event Pokemon faster now.
If someone really wants the event, they can just interact a lot.
[i]"Shinah. It means
Or, do it the other way around. Bring the amount of APs per. hour back down to 500 and keep that half-point system thing.
But just try the new system out and see if you really dislike it.
(And I don't want to hear any more complaints after the survey :b)
@AoTora: Feeding a berry does give you 1 AP (quite a handy solution for iPad users actually.)
There were a lot of people who complained about the low interacting target, now it is higher and they are complaining as well.
Now I vote to keep this one. They are more points per hour after all. I see this as a incentive to make us interact more.
