    Thread Title:
    Double voting instant prizes and luck prizes
    Minecraft Name:
    MrJiggle123
    Suggestion:
    Increase the amount of nstars we get per vote from 1 to 2, as well as doubling the odds of getting each Luck "tier"
    Reason:
    To counteract the extreme price of nstars, this makes buying star tools a near impossible goal for an item that would take months to make back its worth
    Other Information:
    If the lack of voting sites is short-term, then this doesn't need to be implemented. However, if it is a long term absence, this should definitely be implemented to help maintain equilibrium on the server.
    Link to this plugin:
    Whatever voting plugin we have

    I am guessing this will be torn to shreds by those with large nstar collections or star tools. Also, it would increase inflation a lot, so -1.

    We had 6 votes earlier, now we are down to 3. If we doubled everything, we would be at the same prices. I don't get where you think inflation will come from. It's simple supply and demand, the supply won't change in quantity and neither would the demand. You'd get the same amount of luck prizes (1/2 the time but double prizes when you do) so it would be as if nothing changed.

    Why not simply increase the chances of lucky by like 30%?

    If it the odds were doubled of geting lucky, it would be the same as if we had 6 possible votes.

    ...
    Double the chances of lucky would be increasing the chances of lucky by 100%.
    30% isn't even a third of that.

    Oh, I was unclear about what I meant. I changed my post. I meant 30% isn't enough

    Star tools are supposed to be really really hard to get so -1 for getting 2 per vote but I think the amount you get from getting lucky should be higher cause you rarely get it and when you do the prize is not even tat great.

    I own three melon swords. I believe this is the exact change we need.

    you are aware that we have lost half of our sites in the last quarter, so this suggestion would allow for the same amount of stars and lucky prizes to be attained with only 3 sites

    yeah I just noticed that but the hole purpose was done to make netherstars harder to get. Btw I can't be in game atm cause I'm at hotel so how much is the average netherstar going for.

    +1 This is what we need. It would balance the economy back out as if we had 6 voting sites.
