Coins To Eggs.

Post by CraigWalker »

Hey, ok, well ill just introduce my self quick, I'm "smoby" aka Craig.

After a little chat with rage last night, we was thinking about festive activity's and brought up Easter.

Sooo as the title says, "Coins To Eggs." Simply changing the coins to eggs at Easter time, this will be a funny idea and will probably encourage members to do the coin quest (Easter) more often. Possibly change the 4k bonus to a 5k bonus for the festive spirit. LOL :D.

Sooo what are your opinions on this idea? Like it?

Thanks, Smoby AKA Craig.

Sure, sounds nice. Egghunting.
But I think just changing the name from coins to eggs wouldn't really be that exciting.
I think it should have some kind of special touch;)

An easy special touch would be something like no need to stop to collect it. :yummy:

Problem is I gotta recode a fair bit to do that, then have to re-uncode it back to coins if I make other changes during Easter time.

It's not just the message that says you find one. The commads to toggle the quest off/on, the rewards the drop offs quite a few changes to make that possible.

Adjusting it to a higher reward is a 2 second job. hmmm maybe 2 minute, but doesn't require recoding/recompiling/uploading/restarting.

Woah, Craig, you move fast! I couldn't resist thinking about this idea. I guess an Easter Egg hunt was inspired about stories of how there was some kind of frog hunt for one of the CLIS birthdays? Even though this is a simple idea I think it would just help to bring the easter feeling! As much as the quest will be almost the same, this may inspire more people to do this quest during easter.

If its to become easier to collect each egg, would it be better to make the number you have to collect higher?

I can also see the problems of how much else would need to be changed to make this work, however, its still a great idea!

That is true, and we will have something like this eventually. But not for a one day only quest.
