    Mission001​
    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    Network Wide​
    Short title for your suggestion:
    [Suggestion] Event Token Prizes​
    What are you suggesting:
    Add more items to Voting Token Prizes. As i thought the other topic was hopefully going to introduce more then just skyblock voting prizes: https://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/skyblock-suggestion-event-token-prizes.176331/
    Main
    Bring back the items that were taken out originally. They were taken out originally because they were put into the casino as winning items, But they can easily be used in both, as people who are spending Event Tokens aren't going to be getting them left right and center.
    Proposed Additions to Main Token Prizes
    Wither Skull - 20 Tokens
    Dragon Head - 3 Tokens
    Mojang Crate Key - 15 Tokens
    Egg Crate Key - 6 Tokens
    Star Crate Key - 50 Tokens

    Id also recommend lowering the Elytra down from 20 Tokens to 5-10 Tokens.


    Skyblock

    Add some items they you can buy via the store rather then just the generic items. I know people like opening crates because of the risk factor and excitement factor of not knowing what you will get. So why limit that fun? Make it possible to obtain these crates for helping the server via voting.
    Proposed Additions to Skyblock Prizes
    Mojang Crate Key - 10 Tokens
    Egg Crate Key - 5 Tokens
    McMMo Keys - 20 Tokens
    Spawner Key - 25 Tokens


    VMR
    Proposed Additions to VMR Token Prizes

    Rare Key - 5 Tokens

    Global
    Proposed Additions to Network Wide Prizes

    Patron Rank - 75 Tokens

    These prices are low enough to maybe encourage people to go for the things that they may not always want to pay for with their real money straight off the bat. But might then encourage them to get more at a later date with real money. The prices also keep the value of the items pretty high.
    For those who also say about the prices are lower then the ECD to USD rate via the store. You must understand if someone is going for a spawner key via voting. They have to place 1st or 2nd for 5 Months. Its not like they are getting 1 every month, but they might want to invest in 1 a month if they open their first one and enjoy it.
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    This gives players a incentive to vote every day on top of the basic rewards currently. If offers rewards for all and also can make people interested in things that they might not buy straight away from the store. It gives variety on the 3 servers that are available currently and including Patron!​
    Other information:
    N/A​
    Plugin or custom addition:
    N/A​
    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.​

    I appreciate suggestions for item additions and I will look over this later.

    Andrew has the final say on crate keys however, if you're wondering is why they were not included in the skyblock shop.

    I don't have much time right now, so I'll limit myself to a single point:
    I don't think this is going to be accepted. Andrew has previously stated that Buycraft features won't be available via other means.

    If I recall correctly, the old /buyfeature command caused synchronization issues because the rank permission was granted on the server, but Buycraft wasn't able to recognize it.

    Im sure we would both agree that if someone places 1st or 2nd for 15 months in voting, then im sure there is a way to grant a gift code that would grant free patron as a way of thank you for supporting the server.

    And maybe andrew will also see it this way when you take a step back and look at the big picture.

    BuyCraft features & Crate Keys will never be part of voting prizes. (Sorry, there are reasons for this).
    The other stuff all seems fine and I'm ok with @ClarinetPhoenix making these changes.

    @ClarinetPhoenix I've marked this thread as in progress. Please let us know when the changes are made so we can close it off.

    PS: @Mission001 to be totally honest, at this point, voting doesn't even do us much good and we are barely competitive on the voting websites, if at all. It's just kind of implemented because why not, and it gives players instant prizes in game. I really don't see any reason to offer more, and genuinely wouldn't be bothered if people just stopped voting. Voting is (on a purely professional advertisement perspective) dead to me.

    Thats a shame to hear :(
    Would it be possible to maybe break up the Egg crate key then like it use to be so people can get eggs of there choice? (Obviously not all eggs, but some of the eggs like horse, sheep, pig, and maybe even some of the uncommon ones as well, for a price.
    That way the Egg Crate key is still viable for the rarer eggs but offer some variety and value if people wanna get eggs with tokens.

    Could be done on both servers too.

    I could be a noob here, but is forum premium part of our buycraft system?

    If not, maybe that can potentially be the thing worth 75 event tokens

    So... essentially an event medal - which is already a pretty rare medal - just with no alternative ways to earn it and 7.5 times the cost when bought via tokens (plus the voting medal, which you're practically guaranteed to have by the time you reach 75 tokens)? I'm not really a fan of that idea.

    What about for 75 event tokens, the heads of Andrew, Jamie, and KH. I know it’s not a medal like you wished, but it’s still something extremely valuable.

    Wither Skulls and Dragon heads added. I also added End Portal Block and Bedrock Block as well since we seem to be on a trend of star items.
    Lowered Elytra price to 5 tokens, they're not so rare now anymore, they don't need to be expensive.
