So,new point system,do you like it?

I haven't noticed a difference. I only enter for games on my wishlist. Even though that's about 307 games, they're not really ones people are giving away.

I didn't even realize it had changed until you pointed it out.

I can't say it affected me at all. I went from sitting at 300 points, waiting for a game I want to play to appear, to sitting at 500 points.

I can see it hurting card farmers and people just looking for +1s, and I can't say that I'm torn up over their loss.

I don't enter stuff any more so not noticing a change. As with most things there'll be some who like and some who dislike.

I like the new system and I'd like if will be there more restrictive rules ;)

It's fabulous. This has been suggested and discussed mutliple times before and I was tired of explaining people that there chances won't reduce even if they can't enter every giveaway of one game they want. And also glad Cg finally adapted to a lower point regeneration. Overall it will increase the winning chances of people who are selective.

Best of it. It is educative. It will make people learn to make a choice. Seriously people, learn to make a choice. It isn't that hard. I'm just slightly irritated why the cap had to be increased. 300 points would have been enough.

now that I'm used to it, I like it.
I actually need to think about what I enter, rather than just every GA for the games I want most, and if I have points left anything that looks mildly interesting. Now I'm like, X game I enter GAs level 3+, but Y game only level 5+, and then Z game maybe if there's a group GA or something. But do I really want to enter that game that I kinda wanted to play twelve years ago and I just happen to see a GA for?

Of course, I'll probably be singing a different tune on Tuesday when the new Humble gets released

Hey, I see it this way, I'll never run out of points lol

ya ok

the change coinciding with a few new humble bundles being out (including 50p rpgmaker) makes for quite a draught on my end. usually had most of my wishlisted stuff entered, now i have to select what to go for, just feels like i'm missing out chances.

tbh I have no opinion whatsoever about this change, I still have lots of points just like before

Always have 500 points, so I don't really care. Barely entering any giveaway.

I used to almost never run out of points and it´s still the same after the change since i only enter for games i´m interested in. Didn´t pay attention if the odds are better now for me. So personally i´m not affected by this lower generating rate with a higher cap.

I haven't even used 300 points within a month for years so this has absolutely no effect on me.

Even with 200 wishlisted games I pretty much am at a steady 300P so it doesn't effect me.

Even in groups I would struggle to enter giveaways. I'm not talking about bundles either. I struggled to enter AAA games because I debated whether I deserved them.

People speak of the hour giveaways when a bundle comes out... you miss one? Tough shit, it's a free chance of entering a giveaway. Plus I'd rather not be on SG every hour to check. I have shit to do. Go to uni, run a house and feed a man child. I don't have the time and I'm not angry. If I see and win a game it's a blessing and I'd say about 97% of the games I won will get played at some point.

Currently sitting at 500 and unless there is a giveaway within the next hour it will stay that way. CG did a good job and he holds the stats so I trust in him to do what works.

how do they changed it? I thought a new system was "under investigation" not approved.

Didn't change much for me. Still have plenty of points to enter for stuff I want

Didn't really change that much for me. I'm not at max points all the time as I used to but I still got loads of points stored.
The only current cause for my points to drop are mainly the "Sins of a Solar Empire®: Rebellion"
(40P) giveaways. I just got 1-2 pages of giveaways shown anyway because I hid most of the games and often don't enter many of those as well due to my backlog.

I don't like the new system.
If I'd changed the Point system it would be reduced to 100 ~ 150 points

it will affect trains, the long ones especially

It hurts more than it helps the community.

i cant say that it changed much to me, im always at 320-500 points tbh. Changes arent comfortable ofc, after years im used to another system, but i don't mind the new system honestly.

Don't be silly. I don't like it. I love it!

Nah, I'm kind of indifferent. As an optimistic person, I hope it does some good.

Wondering when I'll ever see a lowly 300P ever again.

Me likey
