CS to replace T as Super value basis?

[-:Undertaker:-]

If we decide to standard use a value in hcs for supers, I think the example below is a good way to do it, so that it will look something like this.

Gold Amber - 100 CS (2.2 T)

In order to do this we need to find somebody who can adept our rare values script so that every time the value of a Throne is edited, it recalculates the value for all super rares.

But I am wondering if there is any point. First of all I wonder if it has ever happened that the value of a super rare changed just because the value of a throne changed? For example, if the White Monolith is worth 7 thrones before, and the throne value changes from 45 to 46 hcs, does the White Monolith value actually change to 6.8T, or will it just stay at 7 T (and hence become worth a bit more, but still having the same throne value). If it will stay at 7 T I dont see any problem with our current system.

For example, the value of the american dollar changes all the time, but that doesn't mean that when you buy a bread in the USA, it would be better to put the value in euro or whatever. If the bread is always worth 0.50$ no matter if the value of the dollar changes, there is no need to use a different currency for the bread (even though technically the bread becomes worth less as the dollar goes down all the time). It is simply convenient to use the $ value as that is what the people that buy (trade) breads in the USA use.

Secondly I think that the super rare values should be shown in a way that is most convenient to the people that actually trade them often. No offence to everybody that replies, but I think it is most important what the "big traders" think about this, and from what I can tell they say that since the supers are traded in thrones the value should just stay in thrones (in other words I don't think in this case we should listen to the majority vote, but more to the vote of the small group that regularly trades super rares).

The only problem with that is that we're back to square one again, the whole point of changing it from Thrones to CS is so it makes it more accurate, whereas the RV Team will still have the same problem everytime the Throne changes value which is every day. Most big traders will actually agree from my experiance with trading, I have spoken to a few casinos owners and so on and they would prefer the supers in CS. It should be either all CS which is what definatly should be done or just keep it as it is otherwise there will be no point. I mean look at the Petal Patch Floor, Snow Floor, Moon Floor, Bamboo Floor, Autmn Patch Floor and the Sand Floor - they are all above the Throne and are valued in CS which makes them more accurate and people don't have a problem with it. If we do have to have the CS + T then it should only apply to let's say, rares above 5T and the Thrones use there would be a rough guide.

Yes this will be easier

Anyway due to the falling price of supers most are going below 1 T anyway!!

Could you not do both? : )

It's useful to read above posts

They could do both.
Just code it in that way : )

if you dont want it to change all the time then keep it the same, we all know people seem to base their trades on the habbox rare values rahter then the habbox rare values being based on peoples trades

[brodeo]

yes, i believe there are values sites based around CA & USA use the CS as their value.

i think you should as it's a stable value and won't move.


another idea is that you could use both.
for example put the value in CS and Throne


Purple Dragon

120 CS = 3T

Yeah good idea Corey

Agreeing with his idea makes you contradict yourself.

I recall you wanting to make it simpler to update the rare values, by adding an extra one will not.
