You see I seem to remember something, but can't actually remember if I saw it or posted in the end lol :L

Is this really going to be as useful as you think? Imagine you need to make a big trade involving loads of rares and it'll obviously take a few days (or even up to weeks) to trade for everything. The value of a rare changes and you have to re-type everything into the calculator again to work out the new value of what you need :BangHead:. And once you trade for certain rares, you need to re-type everything again to see how much you need! You go to bed after a day and the next day, you have to re-type everything AGAIN :BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead: :BangHead:!!

In Excel, all you need to do is change the value of the rare which had a change in value or the number of rares you need after making a trade and boom, everything is worked out in less than a second. At the end of the day, you can just save the spreadsheet and continue trading the next day.

I think you're better off just posting a tutorial on how to use Excel to do the calculations.

I do think it will be successful, and clearly it's not only me who thinks that.

It obviously won't be the EXACT value, but its 10,000 times quicker to click on a rare and then type a number (in terms of quantity) than it is to do calculations on excel.

Unless you have a better idea to attract people to habbox. Oh wait.

I mean I can see the advertisement now.. "ALL GO ON HABBOX.COM TO SEE A TUTORIAL ON HOW TO MAKE CALCULATIONS TO WORK OUT HOW MUCH THINGS WILL COST YOU. ALL YOU NEED IS EXCEL AND THE TIME AND EFFORT TO MAKE IT!!"

Just no.

What's the point if it's not going to be the exact value? And what do you even mean it's not going to be "exact"? You're just gonna throw out a random number? Yeah that's gonna help a lot.

Not if you have to do it every day.

I don't really care about attracting people to Habbox. I don't play Habbo anymore and I'm really inactive around the forums anyway. It's just I came across this and think the idea can be improved. Just because I'm criticising it doesn't mean I don't think it's a good idea. Stop getting so worked up over it.

It takes almost no time to make it. Wait, do you even know anything about Excel? Just type in the name, put a value, amount and equation in a row. Then drag down. Can't get easier.

Basically your idea is just a calculator on Habbox. If you use it once then yeah it's useful but if you require lots of stuff that will take a long time to trade for, then no, it's just a hassle to type in everything everyday. Just use any calculator. Can't be that hard punching in numbers.

Not if you have to do it every day.

Would be good if it saved ur list for you, then you could add/remove items from it or change quantities and it automatically updates when an items value changes.

Why don't I just make it to emulate excel in changing? :S

I don't see what point your making here really.

Exactly. Why do those processes when you could click?

And the sooner you stop sing the forums completely, I think is probably for the better :\

And what I said by it won't be the exact value, s you said if I was to do a huge trade then it could take a few days, so I said if you were going to take a few days then the chances are the value would have hanged slightly. So it wouldn't be the exact value.

I look forward to seeing the guide you are making for us DieselShaq.

Your list of items could be saved using cookies methinks.

Exactly what I've been trying to get at. Get the point people?
